need floating pool chair or lounger that is NOT inflatable

pypeke · May 12, 2018

I almost bought the TRC Texas Recreation Baja Ensolite Folding chair/lounge that is supposed to be unsinkable. Then I realized that about half of the reviewers gave it 1 star on Amazon.

It might be unsinkable, but evidently it is NOT untippable! Half the reviewers say if you sit back, your feet go up in the air.

I want a floating chair that I can sit up in to read while floating around.

Does anyone have any experience with the TRC chairs?

I have heard that many people recommend the Kelsyus lounger (inflatable) is good, but it reclines too much for me.

thanks for any suggestions.

I love my noodle mesh chair. What I do is use another noodle to go under my knees or ankles depending on how much I want to lean back.

Thanks I will see if I can find one. I decided not to buy the TRC chair. Too many problems.

I get mine at Walmart make sure you get the correct size of noodle. Get as big as you can fit.

The Big Joe pool float is awesome for yoru needs. My wife reads on it daily in eth pool. A little tricky to get onto since it floats so much, so the trick is to get on the float while on the stairs of the pool, then push off. I think there might be newer models with cup holders as well, but not sure about that.

I like the Big Joe float.

I decided to buy inflatables covered with fabric. I have one that I have had for about five years, but I needed two more. I decided on the Kelsyus.

Thanks for the info.

I might still buy the Big Joe because it looks so comfortable.
