Cons:

• "It was a chore standing in the hot sun trying to get the chair back into this narrow carrying sleeve."
• "The cooler bag feature makes it slightly inconvenient for folding up since it is thick and just 'there'."
• "It's pretty much impossible to fold up into a nice thin thing for carrying to the park or wherever."

Cons:

• "Fabric rips at the rivets. Seams rip open, etc."
• "Both of the chairs broke by the main canvas material tearing away at the seat."
• "The material on the chair itself is also much thinner than my 2017 model, instead of a sturdy fabric it feels like a couple layers of paper and plastic put together, and like it would easily puncture or rip."
• "The bars are ripping out of the arms and the thread is coming off where the side cooler is."
• "Exposure to sunlight rots the cheap material that these chairs are made of."
• "The “cooler” is really more like a waterproof pouch so I don’t know how effective it would cool, but having it is pretty convenient."
