<p>That's just like the ones I bought a few years ago I'm tall but not "big" they bent and were "unsittable" within months. The Marts make money by selling garbage each year.</p>

I strap a tall kitchen trash can to the side of my rear rack. Voila! ability to carry lots of tall things, as long as they aren't too heavy!

<p>I've used one of these for 5 summers going on 6, it disappears in my backpack and it's bombproof. It's a stool, however, not a lounge chair, so may not serve your beach purpose exactly. Folded, it's about a foot square and less than an inch thick, made of steel rod, chain and heavyweight canvas, so it's 2 pounds or so, but indestructible. I found mine in an army-navy store @ 3100 N Lincoln Avenue, Chicago. If you paired this with a little folding/rollup camp table, you'd have the perfect picnic set-up. Not sure how you'd keep any chair or stool from sinking into the sand, though.</p> Anne and Dan -- Thanks for th…tag:thechainlink.org,2011-06-01:2211490:Comment:3450822011-06-01T12:39:36.971ZLee Crandellhttps://thechainlink.org/profile/crandell
<p>Anne and Dan -- Thanks for the suggestions! Those Sierra Trading Post chairs look interesting -- hadn't seen that kind of chair before.</p>

<p>I also googled "chair backpack" and found there's a whole line of chairs that double as backpacks: <a href="http://www.everywherechair.com/backpack-chair.html" target="_blank">http://www.everywherechair.com/backpack-chair.html</a> . Mike, these might meet your needs.</p>

<p>That's awesome about the umbrella! As someone who sunburns in about 5 minutes I may have to look into getting one like that. I have two chairs similar to this one from REI (though didn't pay nearly that much, yikes that's expensive): </p>

<p>Can easily strap them to my back rack - haven't tried them in my pannier yet but I'm sure they'd fit since you can kind of fold them in half. Great for the beach, outdoor concerts, etc. Sierra Trading Post has similar but cheaper ones. </p>
