 Asda are currently selling oversize folding chairs at £10.00 with a 21 stone weight limit! Bought 2 last week as OH is around the 20 stone mark and finds the smaller folding chairs uncomfortable!

Coleman usually give a clear 'weight rating' on their camping stuff, and it's usually quite generous, they should be worth a look.

Hi bigdave

 Oztent chairs here too, i'm the wrong side of 20 stone and thought i would never find a chair i could sit on without fear of going through. I really did'nt want to get a folding fishing chair they are strong but are quite heavy and don't fold down as much as the Oztent  or other chairs of the same elk. The Oztent range are as  debs398 said " expensive but extremely comfortable" and they are rated to 150KG and  i have'nt see anyone else giving a guaranteed for 5 years on a folding chair,but i could be wrong.

Hi Big Dave,

The Royal President takes up to 130kgs max (around 21 stone).  Really hard to find in blue or black at the moment but plenty around in green.  http://www.leisureshopdirect.com/caravan/outdoor/chairs/royal_president_chair.aspx

We ordered a couple as my OH is around 19 stone and they are really comfortable and very sturdy but fold up nicely to not take up too much space.

Happy camping

Jewels

So glad I read this post Spent most of Thursday at Towsure, Go Outdoors and Decathlon looking at sturdy chairs, but didnt want to pay a lot! Went on the internet when I got home, and spent another couple of hours searching again. Did find 1, (cant remember which site it was now though!) Said to hubby that I would leave it a couple of days, and then read this post!! Been to our local Asda this morning, and purchased 2 blue chairs to go with our new (blue) Kalahari 8 tent, and also 2 blue and cream picnic rugs (£4.99 each) to use as carpets!! I am so chuffed
