Held my 190 pounds without tipping when I leaned back to read, and the mesh let the water flow right through so I stayed cool instead of floating on top like a hot pool toy. Bought two with the discount, and my kids fight over which one has the better "throne" spot every single afternoon.
The 2-in-1 design is genius—I flip it from chair to hammock without even getting out of the water. The mesh keeps me perfectly submerged so my back stays cool on the hottest days, and the ergonomic angles actually support my spine.
The mesh drains fast enough that I barely notice the water, and the added hammock setup means I can switch between sitting and floating without getting out. My shoulders actually stay cool the whole time, which is exactly what I wanted for these 90-degree afternoons.
