How's the handling when trying to fold it up? There's no handle to use and it doesn't stand on its own ... did this eventually become an annoyance?

It's super easy. Apply the foot brake, pull up on the two side handles and it will just collapse and fold itself up on the ground. Make sure the lock on the side is clicked (which usually happens on it's own when it collapses) and it's done! It's really easy to flip open as well. Baby Gizmo has a good video on You Tube that shows all of it.

For us there is no annoyance perhaps becoming accustomed, with the brake on, put up on the release handles and it will collapses and locks fairly easy, thereafter use side supports to carry

I usually end up pushing it down flat onto the ground. Once it is folded and latched it does stand alone. I mostly fold it inside my house and it doesn't bother me, especially compared to having multiple pieces to store. Once folded it stands up in an out of the way corner. It isn't the easiest stroller to fold, but I take the benefits.

This is not as easy to fold as other portable swings. Rather than folding what you actually do is take it apart. So you are having to assemble and disassemble which is not very easy. Other than that it is a great swing.

As the others have said, it folds. It's very useful, but a bit awkward for tiny person like me (4'11") to set up alone. I rely on taller family members to do it.

I manage it as a one person job, but it's not the easiest! Once it's off the stand, folding and wheeling it around is easy, but lifting it off (or particularly on) the stand is heavy (and distinctly un-graceful!) work

Yes it folds up but doesn't have a lock to hold it up so I use the string it comes with. Love it though!!!

Not really, once it's up and functional I would doubt that it would be easy to fold and get out of your way. I keep mine up and use it daily.

I'm with you! Just did it after fooling around with it for about 30 minutes. Yikes! I was able to get it into it's not "so easy compact design". So follow the directions from the other comment about folding it at 9 and 3 o'clock and then forming two small circles lying on top of each other and use one of the "side pockets" to pull it over the entire thing. Good luck!

The handle folds up under the blower nozzle. I haven't had any trouble folding and unfolding the handle. Tip: retract the cord before folding the handle.

Ha ha ha. I've tried and tried and could never get it done either. You need to fold and twist at the same time. My husband ended up doing it for me because his hands are bigger... All in all this is not the greatest design

Oh, I can relate to this predicament!! The very first time I used it, I had a very difficult time folding it. Even got someone to help me to no avail because it's meant for one person to fold. What I did to make it easier is, I made sure the material was tucked in place and the zipper is open just a bit to let the air out and not create any air pockets. Once it was neatly folded to a flat position, I grabbed 2 corners and twisted them inwardly. The best way I can describe it is, if you assign a number to each corner (sorry I have to do this since I can't draw a diagram for you here) so each corner is 1, 2, 3 and 4. I have my hands on corners 2 and 4 and with some force, I twist inward creating a circle and that's it. It all fit in it's case and after the first time, it was much easier to fold the other times I've used it. Folding it is very similar to those car windshield visors. Well, I might have confused you more than I helped... so, good luck!!

You can fold it; the bin material is flexible. It is not hard, yet it stands up on its own just fine.

It happens to me all the time. You just click it back in place the way you want it (folded in, standing or flat out). It takes a little getting used to the way it folds and unfolds.

No it don't fold up!!!!??? If so, explain how, cause I have one, and not see how it would unless you took it apart. I love it, don't get me wrong. But it don't fold, and the seller should not lie and say it does!!!

Hello, I had the hardest time figuring out how to close it myself. You need to stand behind the chair with one hand on the handle. Pull down the black cord underneath the chair and at the same time push the handle forward and the chair will fold up. I hope my instructions help you.

Mine was not sent folded, so I did not have that problem. Why not send it back and tell them to send you a new one?

Sort of...its a bit difficult to fold I have to say but if its flat it'll stay. I think some a clip may have come with it but I have not figured out how to use it. It wouldn't be something I'd have my parent try to fold up themselves and get it into a car. My parent mostly uses it just in the house.

I haven't tried to fold it....it doesn't take up much room at all! The tension is adjustable so it is great for both my husband and myself. It isn't very heavy, but is sturdy...we are very pleased!
