Can you use these chairs on the beach rather than in the water? Will the straps hold the back up?

In my family's experience using these chairs, I'd have to say no. But if you were sitting in the sand and tightened the straps? It's a possibility. Just haven't tried that.

I would have to say no. Even with the straps sinched all the way tight it doesn't hold the back up like a chair. It's when you put it in the water and the seat slings that it is kind of forced together into a chair. I had to return mine anyway because the arm was leaking after only one use. You'd be better off getting one of those low beach chairs if you're looking to sit on the beach.

I have not tried to use it in the ocean, but when you sit in it, the back works perfectly. I would imagine it would work in the ocean.

It depends on the hight of your table. These chairs fit well under a standard sized iron outdoor table I bought from Lowe's. They are heavy duty chairs. If your dining area is carpeted I would not use these due to the weight. They do have a lower profile and could aggravate back issues and could be difficult for a child to use. I love these chairs for my outdoor space and would recommend them.

I concur with Joel. The chairs are fine for outside temporarily, but the joints will rust.

In my opinion, when the weights are filled to capacity they will work (and free sand lol) I actually have them holding down a metal gazebo. Hope this helps.

I think they're great chairs! I have them at my counter and they are used by adults and children. Not sure why the "no back support" comment, I think they're comfy for all wood :)

In this type of seat, it's your own body weight that is keeping the back up, as long as the straps don't break. It's not really supportive like a regular chair, but it's enough that you can relax and not have to hold yourself up.

This chair would work perfect for the beach...i live in the caribean and that was one of the main reasons why i bought this instead of the regular high chairs..

They are really well made chairs. We've had someone in excess of 260 pounds sitting in them with no problem. I'm sure they would hold well beyond that.

The chairs are fine but the cushions are not...if they get wet they take forever to dry...I replaced mine with all weather cushions from lowes

I use them on the lake and attach them to my boat cleats when anchored. I'm sure you could use them in the ocean, however the center is mesh and not open to put your torso through like a tube. Good luck.

Yes, possibly so, unless you anchor them down somehow. I haven't done that and haven't used them when it's wet, so I can't be sure.Sorry.

I really haven't tried it on the beach, but the cross bar that helps keep it from sinking into the grass should be of some use to stabilize the chair. We really love ours. For an older person they are very easy to get out of because of their height.

I am not sure,but I don't see why you couldn't. They are nice cushions and have the ties you could use to hold the back up.

I think is the same. But, I would like to advice you that if you are planning to use them at the ocean they are not very appropriate. The straps tend to lose and or to drift away and the system is not very stable. I can only use them at them pool. For waves there are other models with fixed strap that are more functionals. Hope this help

As long as the top part has a place to rest on the deck and the pad can still be in the water it should work just fine. There is weight (sand) in the upper portion (smaller end) in order to hold them in place so they don't float around.

Too heavy to strap to your backpack for hiking any long distance but no problem throwing over your shoulder to carry down to the beach. I usually carry two over my shoulder along with a cooler, beach bag and snorkel stuff and the chairs are the easiest part of the load because of the padded straps. If you are only carrying one chair over your shoulder it is a breeze.
