Features and Construction
The frames of the Mainstays Greyson Square chairs will be steel with a black powder-coated finish. This will protect them from rust in most outdoor conditions.
The seating fabric is made from a plastic material, it is called sling fabric. I have several seats that use this fabric that has been left outside for over 10 years and still looks and sits like new. This fabric is available in five colors, black, blue, red, beige, and teal with the same black frames.
I have chairs very similar to this with my dining set at the lake. I can fold them up and store them in the garage when not needed and they do not have to be left out. My chairs have a lock on them to keep them from folding up by accident, this lock is hard to use.
The legs and feet of these chairs have a small footprint. On grass, dirt, or sand, they may not be very stable. Need to use on a solid foundation to keep your guests safe.
Size and special options
The chairs will fold to less than 3 inches thick when you are ready to store them. They are small enough to store in a hall closet or under a bed. I keep 2 of mine in the laundry room to use when I need quick additional seating around the house.
Each chair will be 22.83 inches wide, 24.8 inches deep, and 37.8 inches tall. They will support 250 pounds of weight each. The seats are not as wide as some other chairs.
The folding and unfolding are done easily as these chairs do not have a lock like mine. They will weigh about 12 pounds each and will be easy to lift, fold, and store when not needed.
Assembly and care
No assembly will be needed for these chairs, just take them out of the box and unfold them for use. The box will weigh 24 pounds and is about 6 inches thick.
To take care of your patio furniture will take a damp rag for most spots. I have had to use mild soap and water to clean the fabric after my chairs were stored for a couple of years and developed a little dark stain. The dark stain was wiped off with a little effort.

FAQs about patio folding chairs
Are all patio folding chairs like lawn chairs?
Typically folding lawn chairs will be very lightweight. Some patio lawn chairs will have a heavier frame. I have wooden folding patio chairs that are a little heavy to carry around to the beach. The heavier weight will allow you to leave them out in windy conditions, lawn chairs will blow away in medium winds without a butt in them.
Why a folding patio chair?
The folding chair will make it easy to store when not in use. A closet or small space is all that is needed to store two chairs when they are folded.
