The description asserts that this chair has a 400 pound capacity, but the Vestils site itself states that the capacity is 220 pounds. Why?

Do not know why the discrepancy in the capacity, but it surprised me when we received it, the chair is hefty. I weigh 190+ and use this in our cement driveway, looking through an 8" dob and it is sturdy on the cement without any wobble, have not taken it out into uneven ground as of yet but I do not expect any problems.

The hydraulics of this chair is extraordinary. I would guess over 300 pounds and a lot more, in my opinion.

It held a 220 lb person. I can't tell you it was comfortable but it didn't collapse!

Sorry it took me so long! I wrestled the chair around and the info. is under the seat. 400 lbs. capacity. It is very sturdy. There is something you should know on adjusting the legs. The legs outside the tub need to be set longer than the ones inside in order for the chair to sit level. I also bought cleaning brushes...like old fashioned bottle brushes to put soap on and run down the drainage holes or they tend to collect old soap. I love this chair and it enables me to take care of myself.

According to the last line in the chair description in Amazon, the maximum weight capacity of the chair is 250 pounds.

It is rated at 450 pounds. However, it is not really a leather chair. The thin vinyl coating started peeling just after the two year warrantee on the seating surface expired. The chair started leaning to one side not long after. I suggest looking for another chair. This one was not worth the money I paid for it.

I'm not sure if this would hold 400 pounds or more but it is a very sturdy chair - by far the moststurdy one we've had or use and the sliding back and forth is wonderful. Sorry I can't be more explicit about the weight.

Not sure, but I know there have been people over 200 lbs. (maybe 220-230) sit in mine with no problem.

I do not know the exact weight capacity but we have had many instances of folks weighing ~ 250 lbs sitting comfortably for prolonged periods with no problem.

Not too sure...I think it mentions 220 pounds somewhere on the box. But my husband is closer to 270, and there is no problem. Seems quite sturdy.

The chairs are "dainty" as someone else stated. I would say 200 is an upper limit. I have had 2 of these break on me but Amazon was great to replace them at no charge.

The weight limit is claimed to be 400 pounds and I am inclined to believe it. The chair is very robust. I am a little over 300 myself and had no problem with the chair in that regard, whatsoever. If that is your only concern, I can recommend the chair.

I don't know for sure but it seems like a very sturdy chair that should easily hold 250 to 275 pounds.
