New improved cords
Reviewer: Theresa ,

To forwarn buyers of bungee cords, they are now thicker and do not need double threaded like the last ones. However the instructions have not been updated so I tried to double lace them with much effort and broke the top. I called them and they explained they no longer require double lacing (thank goodness because they are impossible to do!)

What I've Learned
Reviewer: Jerry Jones ,

Here's a tip I'd like to pass along to purchasers of these laces. Only the bottom laces tend to wear out. So, I DOUBLE-LACED the bottom portion of the chair and -- WOW -- now the laces ARE NOT WEARING OUT. If you DOUBLE-LACE the bottom, then I think you might get the same great result.

Lafuma laces

Thank you for the speed of sending out laces. Our camping season is short and I hate to be without my favorite napping chair. Replacing the laces was really easy, but I do agree that it would be nice to just be able to purchase the longer laces seperately. Besides that, keep making this excellent product. Thanks again.

Excellent delivery time and now a renewed chair to enjoy
I didn't realize how much the original bungees had stretched!

Lafuma Elastic Laces (and chair)
Reviewer: Tom ,

Have chair 5 years, mattress like new, green frame a bit faded but we neglected it, left it outside continuously. 2nd replacement of cords. Seat areas only wore on 1st set. Got bright idea to double lace seat with a long cord and lace lower section with leftover short cords. Result was better support and less seat wear. Lasted longer until end joint failed on a seat. We love the comfort of this chair. Just added a side tray to indulge a bit more. C'est magnifique! France is better than the knock-offs from 3rd world countries, sold in the big box stores.

Wasteful
Reviewer: Jerry Jones ,

Only the bottom laces wear out. So far, they are lasting about six (6) months. Therefore, they represent a considerable cost factor that should be counted when adding up the total cost of ownership of a Lafuma recliner. They should sell the top and bottom laces separately and then reduce the cost of the bottom laces below what one must pay now for the combined package.

Lafuna Elastic Laces

Thru Google I found the Lafuma site and ordered the replacement laces for our Lafuma chair - I ordered the laces and Lafuma quickly sent them out - My husband and I took out the old laces and put in the new without any trouble. If you need new laces this is the place to order them.
