We were surprised at how light this chair weighs! It is surprisingly comfortable, even for my 6‚Äô3‚Äù hubby to sit in. My son carries it up and down the stairs by the handle because he wants to sit in it all the time (when he‚Äôs not on the media bean bag we also ordered from this amazing company)! It is made with great quality fabric and we will definitely be ordering another one. Love the side pockets! BONUS: the box it is shipped in turns into a castle... even more fun! We love Big Joe! Only regret is not ordering sooner!!
