Will the chairs support heavy individuals?

I believe they would. I have had several groups of company that have sat in them and never had a problem. I have never tested them on extremely obese people.

They are fairly sturdy, but I don't think that they will support more than maybe about 250 pound individuals.

I gave it to my son in college who shares it with 3 medium size boys ... 150lb to 200lb. It seems to be holding up.

Well, my dad weighs a solid 250lbs and it supports him just fine. The chair is really very sturdy. I hope this helps.

My husband and I both weigh over 300 lbs and the chairs are very sturdy I am sure they will hold more weight than that.

These chairs are handy because they are light weight and very portable. They are not the most comfortable chair in the world. The heavier a person is, the less comfortable they are. I would not recommend these chairs to people over 200lbs. The chairs will support their weight, but the person will not be comfortable at all. I hope that helps with your purchasing decision. I am not sure what the maximum weight is.

The reason I bought this chair was because it is heavy weight and wouldn't break. I had one break on me and I didn't want that to happen again. It's made of wrought iron. I think it could support a quite heavy person WELL over 200 pounds with no problem at all. I weigh 200 and it works fine and I have no worry that it would collapse on me.

The chairs seem fairly sturdy and well built. The heaviest person to use it was probably 175 lbs. I'm guessing they could go to 250 lbs no problem.

These are very sturdy chairs and can easily hold 250+ pounds. Make sure they are properly assembled

Yes. I'm about the same height and slightly heavier than you are, and I've had no problems whatsover with the chair supporting me. The only thing I would caution you about is that the edges of the chair's metal base, right where the casters are plugged into it, are viciously sharp and should be wrapped in something to protect against cutting your heels.

Depends on how big the adult is. The chairs are okay for kids and perhaps a petite adult. Fairly strong and durable.

Yes, they are quite sturdy. My brother is a large man and has sat in our chairs many times. No problem at all.

The chairs are very sturdy. I would think they could handle 300 pounds or so.

It could probably hold someone's weight but it would not be very comfortable - we love ours but have never used it for seating.

I don't know. The chair is sturdy. I weigh about 145. Check out the company Brylane homes. They have chairs designed for larger sized people.

That I am unsure of. I'm a very lightweight guy but the chair is made very well. It's very sturdy and I would guess it can handle quite a bit of weight but if I were you, I would consult The Healthy Back Store for more info.

The general rule is if you can fit in the chair it is okay. I would not go over 300 lbsBruce

The heaviest individual to sit in one of our chairs is around 230 lbs, and there was no issue. They are fairly sturdy chairs as long as you properly assemble them.

The chair would support the weight, but I'm not sure about the width. My husband is 210 and has just a little clearance on both sides.
