What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the L.L.Bean All-Weather Folding Chair, viewing it as a premium, long-term investment rather than a disposable seasonal item. The sentiment centers heavily on its exceptional durability and true "all-weather" performance. Reviewers frequently highlight its resilience against harsh elements, including salt air, intense sun exposure, and heavy rain, noting that the colors resist fading and the frame remains rust-free years after purchase. Comfort is another major positive; users appreciate the ergonomic design and supportive seating, making it suitable for extended use on patios, decks, or campsites. The folding mechanism is generally lauded for its simplicity and secure locking, facilitating easy storage during off-seasons. However, the primary point of friction is the price. While most acknowledge the superior quality justifies the cost, potential buyers often compare it unfavorably to cheaper alternatives initially, leading to some hesitation. A smaller segment of feedback mentions the chair's substantial weight, which, while contributing to its stability, makes it slightly less portable than lighter, less robust models. Overall, the consensus is that this chair successfully delivers on L.L.Bean's promise of quality, leading to high satisfaction and strong recommendations, particularly among those who prioritize longevity and minimal maintenance. The chair is consistently described as the last folding chair they will ever need to buy, reflecting deep customer loyalty and trust in the product's enduring performance.
