These chairs remind me of an over weight relative who was visiting in Arizona, where a friend had a covered back deck with these chairs. Our relative sat in one, not aware that the heat melts those things even when shaded. She flipped over backwards into the flower bed behind her, fortunately the deck was only about foot off the ground so she wasn’t hurt. It was very funny to watch though.
