Review: Strongback Chair

Fifty Sense Seal of Approval

One challenge we have as we get older is our back gets tired, especially when we are active. Finally a company understands that we don’t just want a travel chair, we want one that is comfortable and gives us lumbar support. We originally met the owner in 2009 at the Summer OR Show and sat in them the last day of the show. He was demoing to see the interest. The difference was amazing over the other chairs and we encouraged him to get them out ASAP! We are thrilled that these chairs are now available.

Strongback Elite

This company realizes that not everyone it the same size. When you are over 200 pounds, not every chair works, but this chair is made to handle up to 300 pounds. Their exclusive frame integrated lumbar support technology gives the STRONGBACK Elite superior back support with a higher back you usually find in travel chairs and comfort, all while maintaining the ease of use, light weight and portability. This chair is recommended for those that prioritize spaciousness and sturdiness over the compactness of the STRONGBACK Zen.

The Ergonomic seat design allows you to relax against the comfortable lumbar support while preventing the uncomfortable leg-pinch from the fabric in the front of the seat that is common in many other chairs. It has dual shoulder straps on the bag allow for back-pack style hands-free carrying, convenient on-top bag handle for easy moving around, pulling out of those cramped places, and getting the chair back into the bag, and a convenient on-top bag handle for easy moving around, pulling out of those cramped places, and getting the chair back into the bag.

The heavy duty polyester 600D tear and wear resistant fabric and the silver powder coated steel frame ensure this chair is built to last. This chair weighs less than 12 pounds, yet is 28.25"(W) x 26"(D) x 36"(H). All this and it folds to 11"(W) x 6"(D) x 44"(H).

Strongback Zen

This chair is recommended for those that prioritize portability over the spaciousness and strength of the STRONGBACK Elite. Like the Elite, you can sit in this chair all day and remain comfortable. The smaller reviewers loved having exclusive frame integrated lumbar support technology, superior back support and comfort, all while maintaining the ease of use, light weight and portability. We found in comparing this chair to any other travel chair on the market we immediately felt the difference in comfort and back support.

This chair weighs only 7.7 pounds and has a weight capacity of 225 pounds. It is an nice size in use, 33"(W) x 23.5"(D) x 31"(H), and folds into a compact 8.5"(W) x 7.5"(D) x 34"(H)
