Chair was a lifesaver

This chair (didn't use the cane) was a lifesaver during our recent overseas vacation. I can't stand still for long periods of time (sciatica) but I am otherwise very healthly so I was hesitant to carry this cane/chair with me on our trip but it turned out to be a lifesaver! Everywhere we went people were asking me where I got it. I used it everywhere...waiting for subways & taxis, ON the subway, waiting in lines of all kinds! My 180 lb son sat in it several times with no problem but I don't know if it would be advisable for 200+. This one was much sturdier than a cheaper one I saw elsewhere. The only drawback is, if you are traveling, it did not fit in any of our suitcases so I had to carry it on. Which turned out to be a good thing because I sat in it while we were waiting for our luggage at the airport.

Nice product

The product arrived intact in a well-packaged box on the day promised. Purchased this for my grandmother. The good part: it is very helpful as a seat and at the same time folds neatly into a cane. We found it handy and helpful for all the long tourist trips while you wait in line or wait for the car. The bad part: after you get up from the seat and dont fold it properly, it tends to open up into a seat while walking-a minor design issue. That and the fact that it was slightly heavier; hence it loses a star on the rating. Would otherwise recommend this product to anyone who cannot stand or walk for long.

Really disappointing!

The seat of this item was scuffed as though it had been heavily used and also had some heavy scratches. Of course I returned it since it was to be a gift. The seat was quite small as well and seemed too small for most adults. Having to repackage it and take it to the UPS store at that busy time was a royal pain!

Relief When Needed

I do a lot of traveling around the world. Sometimes the tour guides do a lot of talking while you are standing. My problem is not walking as much as standing. The cane is very handy if you need help with stability but the seat is a lifesaver if you can't stand still. On one occasion people in the group offered more money for the seat than I paid. Everyone wanted to know where I purchased it.

great portable seat

This item is wonderful for people who have little endurance or need to sit down while walking periodically. The fact that it is a cane seems to be okay but secondary to tell the truth. Nice and light to carry.
