My concern is stability. 6'250lbs..is it easy to tip over?

No. It's pretty stable. We've used these in the ocean at the Outer Banks, and, once you're out past the wave line, they're pretty difficult to tip.

I am 6'2" and 200 lbs, and use it with my wife. It is very stable, paddles easily, and tracks straight. I'm very pleased with it.
1564356
Kayak is very, very stable, My wife, small dog, and I have no problems at all.
1564357
It really won't tip over. The only concern I would have is that it is narrow inside, and for larger people it may pose a problem getting in and out.
1564358
Never had any trouble with it tipping over. Found it a really stable kayak, easy to get into anout of and very stable while paddling.
1564359
We haven't had a problem. Pay attention to the guidelines for inflating and you shouldn't have a problem. We've used this in lakes, on the Hudson and other small rivers. We love ours!

Very stable, and easy to control. We have 2 shared by 2 adults, 2 teenagers, 1 youngster, and a crazy dog plus more gear than we really need. But we have only used it on lakes and the Truckee river not sure I would try major rapids.

I'm 6'3" & 200lbs. Used it with my daughter who's probably 140lbs. You are firmly planted between two inflated 12"+ diameter tubes such that it is essentially impossibly to flip (center of mass of you vs. point of required rotation based on buoyancy). I got in and out of it in the water (somewhat difficult to get back in as it is on top of the water) with complete stability.

This is great, I had a 250lbs person plus a dog and cooler and 4 yr old and myself in here with verging combinations of people and no tipping at all, however the seat deflated pretty quickly so we just used it as a back rest totally worth it and high grade plastic because my dog has serious claws and there was no damage! I'm thinking of buying a second one for this summer. I like the carrying bag but it is heavy so I will use a wagon this summer.

It's really more like a canoe, your high up off the water not down low like a classic plastic kayak, more difficult to tip than a plastic kayak

I'm 190lbs and I get the feeling it easily could support twice that. It is very sturdy and well built. It is perfectly stable in the back and forth direction. I don't think you could tip it back or forward even if you tried (if you're actually sitting on it). I use it on carpet an it is still very stable. You'll be happy with it, it is a great bench.

No, it does not seem top heavy at all - I've never seen it actually tip over during use.

Yes it is stable, you will only tip/swing if you are a little clumsy like I am and don't sit down in the middle when you lay back. Yes two people can lay down in it.

I just put it together, I would not worry about tipping over, however if all you keep in it is light, you might have to but your foot in front of the base as you turn it.

It is sturdy. I weigh 130 & have stood on it with no wobble. Will it support someone who weighs 400 lbs? No idea, but certainly it is fine for someone weighing 100-200 lbs.
2252101
I'm 200 and its held up fine. It is wobbly though. I'd recommend something more commercial to be honest.

250lbs with no problem. The bottom half of the ubit is adjustable and telescopes. 6' 7" should not be a problem.

It's stable. We load it up with heavy winter costs, and it doesn't tip, but the poles themselves are not solid- they're lightweight.
1957178
It seems like it could handle some heavy weight but it is tall and thin in stature so it seems to me it could tip. That's just a thought for you to consider.
1728423
I am 71 and have no trouble with it, however I am 5'8", so maybe someone shorter may have to use a step stool. The seat is very solid, and I have never worried about it tipping over getting in or out.

I have sat in my husbands lap multiple times in this chair and had no issue. He's 6'4" and easily weighs over 200 lbs so I'm confident it would support someone over 250. I have not tried it for extended periods of time but we've had them for 3 years now with no issue. Good luck!

I've noticed the butt of the chair is kinda small ... will not fit a 300lbs person but it's plenty sturdy.... 250 should be good.....it does swivel also keep that in mind....

I have found it to be very stable. I weigh 160 lbs and have used it at museums, airports, train and bus stations, botanical gardens, etc. You do have to balance on it as you have to tilt the seat to sit on it. But it is important to read the instructions and make sure you cut the correct amount off the end off so that the seat is at the right height for you. I hope that helps. It sure has been a lifesaver when you have to wait around and your knees are not in good shape. I just had a right total knee and will be having my left side done and with such bad knees before, I still was able to use the flip cane seat easily. I have found it to be very stable.

Yes, you'll be fine. My buddy is 6.5 and he has no issues. I'm on it every day. Holds up nicely.

Its very very heavy. It would not tip over. I have kids who play with it at times. Its not a problem. You would be happy with it.

I'm about 145 pounds and I feel comfortable, but people up to 250 have been on it before and it bends quite a bit, I wouldn't want more than 200 points on it in my opinion.
