We have two that we've had for 3 years now. I have a very bad back (due to bone marrow cancer). I have found it almost impossible to get up & out of regular folding camp chairs, with their swaybacks, not to mention how much they hurt! When we got these Strongback chairs, they were on sale & we got them for $40 (CDN)each, a really good deal. We use them all the time camping and they have very supportive lumbar regions built into them. I can sit all day and not be bothered with back pain. I like the fact they fold right up.
