How easy is this to fold up and put away and to set up? I'm a social worker and we're looking for something to take with us when going into apartment

It is SUPER easy. We took it with us to Disney World where the adults were easily out numbered and we had no problem quickly setting it up, and even quicker, packing it while running for a runaway child.

Simple to fold and unfold. To open, undo the velcro strap at the top near the seat and that's it. To fold, tug the middle of the bottom of the seat to keep the seat inside the chair and close the chair by bringing the three seat corners to each other. Then strap down the velcro. Done in under 30 seconds!

It's super simple. Just fold it up and wrap the strap around - it attaches to itself with Velcro. To unfold, just pull the Velcro loose, pull it apart and set it on the floor. It's about a 10 second operation to unfold, and maybe 20 seconds to put away when you include threading the strap through the little plastic part before folding it back on itself. Definitely get this chair!

Hi, Robin ... for give the delay in response. I have been away from my email. I found this item to be easy to carry and very easy to unfold. I could imagine it being very useful as temporary seating during a visit. It is not designed for comfort, but for portability and durability. Nonetheless, we found it stable and accommodating for people of different sizes while on various outdoor treks. I hope you find this response helpful.

pop open, pop shut... a no brainer... sitting, however, takes 1 or 2 tries to learn the balance point... great for watching golf tournaments...

In my opinion, it does fold easily and quickly. It takes doing it a few times to get the hang of it. You may wish to leave the storage basket off as it is an extra thing to deal with before folding it.

It doesn't fold. I don't think it takes up a lot of space though, and we live in a small, one bedroom apartment.

It is very easy to fold up and both sections stand up on end to save space. It is also very easy to put the sections back together. Very very user friendly. It only takes about 5 seconds to fold it up or unfold it.

It is fairly easy to put up and take down. You have to take out two screws and then it will fold in half. You don't need a screw driver you can do it by hand (loosen the wing nut).

It is very easy to fold and store and then take out and set up. Total time to do either is less than 2 minutes. Just remove the pole prior to folding up.

It is very easy to fold up. The only deterrent to doing what you want to do is that if you get one of the taller ones, it's heavy to carry-- you might not want to carry it across the house every day. But if it weren't heavy, it would be flimsy and your dog would just knock it over. I just kept mine folded against a wall in the room I used it in and pulled it open when I wanted it, that was easy.

Yes it is easy. It locks together in the middle and just lift it up and folds down easily.

It couldn't be easier. You just life up the seat and it folds up. Be sure to take off the basket 1st though.

We leave ours up all the time but it is definitely not heavy if you have to fold it away. I have a bad back and I find the weight ok

Yes, extremely simple. Its just like folding out a camp chair. One motion, takes about 10 seconds! Still sturdy and small enough to store in an office.

It is easy to fold up ! I just fold the hitch to save time putting the ends on, and put in a corner of my Garage. Real easy to carry that way ! One handed ! Will fit through a door that way too !

It arrived assembled just folded down. You push down on levers to collapse. Super easy.

It is easy to fold up. But I recall reading that others have left it outside.

Honestly.... I wouldn't use it to fold up & move everyday. Too stiff, heavy, & doesn't fold that easy. I would go for a metal one. I have one that is light, easy to fold, a little heavy but not as cumbersome as this plastic one.

It's very easy, you only need to bolt on the feet. The rest is ready to go. It arrives folded flat. It comes with the hardware and a small wrench, you could also use a electric screw driver to speed up the process. It can be put together with 1 person, but 2 would be easier.
