Trying to fold this back for eating and the stiff reinforced seams seem to be preventing me from folding. Any help would be appreciated

I ended up using the vet collar because this was too heavy. I found that using a smaller bowl on the floor helped our dog eat easier. the floor naturally pushed the collar back.

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.

Very carefully, lol. There is a definite trick to it and I can't always say I get it on the first or fifth try. Grab the lower left corner and top right corner and twist it into itself. It may take a few tries but it will fold up eventually.

I think you should fold it down flat, press down on the edges while turning counter clockwise and it should come apart. It may take a few tries to get it back together, but be patient. Good luck!

It took several attempts before we got it right. We took the top (after unzipping it) and folded it, then the floor. I can't tell you exactly how we folded it. Just keep trying. It was a struggle to get it in the bag/case without help. Don't give up. You can do it.

It takes more like 30 seconds to 1 minute. You should practice folding it at home. I have no issue. Just watch the youtube video if you problems.

I had the same problem. My boyfriend had to figure it out for me. You need to push down on the two parts the seat panel is attached to. As you push down the chair will unfold. It "snaps" over center to stay open. To fold up simply pull up on the same two parts and the chair will fold up.

Same with mine. I stored it as instructed (with the fabric between the folds) in a cool dark place and it's turned rock hard. I also contacted the company and no response. Buyers beware.

PUSH IT! :-) Seriously, fold it as much as you can on the lines that remains from the first time you took it out and then the rest is just pushing it harder and harder! That is how I do it :-)

I try to make it as smooth and flat as possible before feeding it through. I also try not to get it too close to the edge or it folds over. Maybe hold the end a little to keep the tension tight.?

Yeah but I kind if regret it now because I can't fold it up and its just collecting dust.the side that connects to the the plastic rips kind of easy if you are not careful. If you can learn to fold it right it will be ok.

Hello Chelsea,My mattress is quite heavy which made fold up hard but, you've purchased a great steady product. You have to lift the back and kind of pull up on the front at the same time. Stand behind what would be the back and try and lift close to end and pull up on front end while lifting back. Mercy, took lots of practice for me. But trust it's a great futon. YOU CAN DO IT. Best,Loretta

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!

We did not have fold lines. It is possible that we cinched the straps tighter. Otherwise, I'm sorry - no other advice that would help.

Pull up the black plastic pieces that the metal piece is attached to. I assumed u just lift up the metal piece to close it but its the actual black piece. Then it folds . hope that makes sense to u :)

Unfolding it shouldn't be much of a problem, just pull the ends apart and stand back. Folding it back is the tricky part, but there are Youtube videos that help.
