You should always read the descriptions. This one says specifically "weight capacity: 225 lbs"

I think the weight limits are specified somewhere in the description. I would follow those specifications. If they say 245lb is acceptable I believe the cane chair will be sturdy enough...you just have to use it gingerly. No plopping down and always being careful to maintain your balance. You have to remember this is a cross between a cane and a chair so it's not "perfect" as either, but it's pretty darn good. Even a lighter person using the chair must use the chair carefully. So again I say if you are within the specifications go for it. Nothing compares to actually trying an item. You can always return it if you are not comfortable with it.

I weigh 190 lbs and have no problem. We have had guests that were about 250 lbs that used it with no problem either. The frame seems very sturdy even though the covering is rather cheap. But, the chair is comfortable and I certainly enjoy it.

I weigh 170 and use this chair daily. There are several of my family members that are over 200 lbs. that use it occasionally and it has held up fine.

Says 250 weight capacity on the box. I weigh 280 and so far no problem. As long as the screws are in tight, the chair should be fine. If you're over 250 I wouldn't recommend leaning back in it too much. As of now, I'm on a diet.

I'm 200 lbs and it's sturdy enough for me to sit on. Two people could probably be supported easily, but I can't speak from personal experience...

The users of this chair are averaged at around 190 lbs. we fit the chair. I used to be a lot heavier and I would not have fit it back then. The chair is a smaller size. I would think twice.

It is sturdy. I'm 200 lbs. and not even close to an issue. Welded steel is strong. I'm happy with mine.

The chair is sturdy. It depends on what a 350lbs person is doing on it. I don't recommend rocking or standing on it. The chair does comfortably fit a "big boned" person.

yes, it will support that weight...I'm dieting now but when I got the chair I weighed 320 lbs. I'm at 240 now and losing and have yet to have a problem like that. You need to read my original comments about this chair and what I went through...I certainly don't advise you to buy from this company. Go to Staples and look at their chairs, that's what I wish I had done!

I am about 230 and it feels sturdy to me. I saw very similar stools in a restaurant so they must hold up well. Assembly is a bit trickey

I can't find a reference in the literature or online, but I'm 200 lbs. and it seems plenty sturdy for me. Maybe you could contact the manufacturer.

Well I weigh 185 and it is really sturdy. I will assume at least up to 250 it will hold fine.

I am about 200lbs and the chair had no problems. As i said in my note, be carefull in not over inflating the chair.

It is a very sturdy chair. I have seen someone close to that weight regularly use the chair, butI am not sure if it would work for you.

I'm not sure exactly how much weight it can hold, but it certainly holds my 245 lb husband with no problem.
