Lafuma Futura XL Zero Gravity Patio Recliner (Seigle Grey Batyline Canvas) Extra Large Outdoor Folding Lounge Chair

Fantastic!!These ACTUALLY ARE ZERO GRAVITY.There are many claiming to be but they are NOT!Bought 2 😊

Not as cushiony as my fourteen year old LaFuma but it holds its position far better than the levers did on the older one. How long the clips hold remains to be seen. I replaced the stretch cord on the older one every three years or so but that's not possible on this model.******************************************************My concern over the clips has now been validated. The thread has broken and is unravelling. Amazons link to product support does not work and you have no idea how difficult it is to reach LaFuma for Warranty services. I guess Amazon thinks their link works since they sent me an automated email asking if I had heard from the manufacturer yet. No and I probably won't since the link did not work, tried it three times.I sent an email to the only LaFuma website I could find on Google only to learn that they are a different LaFuma but they did forward my email on to the manufacturer....in France. That was three weeks ago. Probably better to purchase a LaFuma product locally so it can easily be returned to the seller

Perfect seating option for a small lanai or patio. When the recliner is in upright position it takes as much space as a normal chair. As you lean back the foot rest comes up to support your legs. I did find that I didn't have enough lumbar support. However. the fabric is so comfortable that I really didn't need a head pillow so, voila!, I'm using the detachable pillow as a lumbar support.This chair is all about options. Lots of positions from sitting upright to reclining. The position is easily locked when you find your sweet spot. I have an adjustable bed and a bad back so I'm used to the zero gravity feature. That was one of the biggest selling points when I looked at recliners.I was concerned about how much visual space a recliner would take up in my limited space. Try almost zip, nada. The fabric is sturdy but virtually transparent like a sunshade. You can see right thru. This was so unexpected and a visual delight. I love the seigle color (French for "rye").My style is minimalist contemporary. It's like someone designed this chair just for me. There is a 2 year warranty so I'm glad I didn't pay for extra coverage. I bought 2 chairs. One arrived in 3 days. The 2nd should be here in 5 days. The chair was easy to unpack and intuitive to set up. No assembly required.I almost forgot to mention that the recliner easily folds up if you need to get it out of the way. It's not compact enough for the beach (in my opinion) but I bought it to use in my home. As I write this we are anticipating a possible hurricane. If you've ever had to lug all your outdoor furniture into your indoor living space then you know how happy I am that I can fold my recliners and lean against a wall taking up minimal space.I also love that this chair is still made in France and that it sells at a very reasonable price point. I'll update the review for sturdiness after I've had it for a while

Tried this for my husband (200+ lbs. 5'9" ) as a temporary recovery aid after an injury--something he could sleep in sitting up, and easy to move around an apartment space. It's a sturdy and great chair, and very portable, however didn't work for him to sleep in. Was troublesome for him to get into, for one thing. And then not enough support along the sides for his arms. I have dozed off in it myself, 5'6" fully reclined and if you add lots of pillows, it kind of works. You never get fully flat reclined either, not flat like a cot or something, but goes pretty low. Have it folded up now which it does nicely, for some day when we have a yard or patio for it. Will be great for that and seems pretty durable.

After experiencing a TRUE anti gravity chair at a reflexology office I asked what brand and this is what I was told; however, this chair does not actually recline into the full antigrav experience. And after 6 months of intermittent use it has many loose joints the seat material has stretched.If this is an actual LaFuma chair it is NOT of the grade I would expect based on price and experience of the reflexology practitioner's chair.

I have had several of the cheap copies of this Lafuma chair and they have been ok. This chair really is better. It’s design is sleeker more comfortable and actually locks in place quite easily and quite firmly, unlike all the chairs with the ratcheting plastic gizmo that always eventually stops working or never really worked very well. The clip system that they use to hold the fabric in place is much firmer than the bungee elastic cord versions and leads to a more comfortable and supportive feeling. My partner and I are about 5 foot six and 5 foot eight and neither of us weigh over 140 pounds and the chair is quite big enough and comfortable. I can even rest my heel on the foot rest at the bottom, if this was for a bigger person I don’t think I would be able to.

I bought this chair because I was looking for a comfortable chair for resting and reading on the deck.Back and hand issues are ongoing problems so I find regular deck chairs uncomfortable after a short period of time.Initially it was difficult to open the chair but it became easier after being used for a while (that is why I gave it a 4).The actual comfort of the chair is a 5.I even brought the chair in last winter and set it up in a room inside where I would go to read when my back was hurting and it was just the chair I needed.

So worth the $$$ very sturdy feeling and looks great
