Reviews for Lafuma RT recliner

I'm medically disabled and virtually live in this chair. For myself, for my particular back problems, the non-laced back of the RT is a plus because this allows for a needed =slight=, hammock curve to the back which the former model I had, an RSX, did not provide quite so well with its fully laced back. Yes, for myself this entry level Lafuma chair has proven to give my own ideal fit. I am in the chair perhaps 20 hours per day. I sleep in the chair because it keeps me pain free; see, a flat bed is impossible. I'm not heavy at 150lbs and I don't treat the chair roughly, yet after several months of use the lacings saw through and threaten to break. Very easy to replace lacings, even with by-the-foot bungee cord purchased cheaply from the hardware store. After about one full year of use the orange mesh fabric is wearing out at the seat bottom and one rivet has torn loose and the sideways-running threads on both sides at that area are beginning to break: simple fatigue failure after thousands of hours of use; I won't complain--I've enjoyed good service in this term of use, equivalent to many years of normal use. Lafuma affords me a pain-free life quality I could not have otherwise. I rate this chair with five stars even though it is possible to wear out replaceable Lafuma components. Very pleased here living in a Lafuma chair, without a pain in my little world.

I was just in a store that had these. Only thing they need to work on is colors. Something in a bright stripe, beachy looking.

I love this chair. Reclining is the best, so comfortable. Also love the orange color with silver legs. A couple of things to note. When the chair is in the upright position it feels like you're leaning forward. I realize that it's a recliner, but it seems like you should be able to sit upright as well. The pillow doesn't really serve that much of a purpose and actually works better if you move it down as neck or lumbar support. Last, I'm not the best at opening the chair up with ease. I probably just need more practice.
