Does anyone think it would be possible to inflate either the chair or ottoman, from flat to full, with a 90 pound person sitting on it?

i don't think so the pump can only push air at a certain rate. a 90 pound person would cause a push back onto the pump. hope that helps.

The general rule is if you can fit in the chair it is okay. I would not go over 300 lbsBruce

Great question. How much does the person weigh? If it is someone who is morbidly obese like 400 pounds, I would question whether it could take the stress. But I know somebody 200 pounds has absolutely no problem sitting on it. Have you contacted the manufacturer to ask?

You can inflate the bed to be a little more firm and the lighter person should not roll towards the center. They will move some when the heavier person moves around.

I would say no as my husband sits on the chair without any problems and he is probably 180 pounds.

The base maybe but the two cushions have the air intake similar to a blow up raft. It would also weigh a ton! It takes a lot of air. Its a fairly decent sized chair.

My friend who is 4' 8.5" stopped by this morning and tried my chair. She thought it was great and had no problem - in fact, she is going to put it on her gift list. She said she had no problem with it rolling away from her (although you do need to be careful about this...I think my casters are partially locked). Her legs were not at 90 degrees, they more followed the contours of the ball, but her feet were on the ground, and she was able to move the chair easily with her feet. I don't think her heels were more than just lightly touching the floor though - but she was barefoot. She was able to easily sit on the top center of the ball, and thinks it is very comfortable. She can't lean back against the backrest, but this is okay since you aren't supposed to lean against it anyway. BTW, the instructions for inflating the ball say to blow it up, then check it in a day since there will likely be some leaking, or perhaps it just stretches out, and fill it again. This is exacrtly what happened with mine, and after I filled it the second time, it has been fine. My ball might be a little soft, which might make a difference to her, but since I am big, it might be my weight. I hope this helps, and I would stress that you be careful when first using the chair to have a good understanding of how it moves, particularly when getting on and off.

Yes it is - we have used it for exactly that. I would not recommend to have a 300 lb. person sit on it, but it certainly works fine for a "normal" size adult.

You could but it would not be very comfortable. The seating is designed to be sat on with the cushions. Thanks for your interest - BestDealsInc

It's pretty big, but if the chair is large enough and you didn't completely inflate the mattress, I bet it would work.

Probably. I've had a couple people weighing more than that, but not sure if they put their full weight on the chairs, or kind of leaning on the stool. The stools are not super sturdy or heavy, but seem sufficient for that weight.

I do not think sitting on it would do much damage. A large person would have trouble getting up because it is so low to the ground. Our sleeper chair has held up well but we are not large people.

I can't say how many lbs this could hold. it is really a very nice, sturdy storage ottoman (narrow) with a straight back, not really a chair for comfortable sitting or sitting for any length of time.

No. The cushion is very firm and will not compress enough to make this position comfortable.

It could probably hold someone's weight but it would not be very comfortable - we love ours but have never used it for seating.

The pneumatic tube could be blown, but highly unlikely. Try rising yourself so the chair will rise to meet you. It will not rise you off the bottom by itself. Other than that, I have no suggestion.

I think it would be possible but very tight and the weight limit is 35 pounds so I'm not sure you would be within the limit.
