FAQs
How is the Emmett different to a regular camping chair?
The Emmett is the result of years of development to create a portable chair designed from the ground up for how we live today in the modern outdoors. In terms of design, quality, comfort, materials and features it's like nothing you've seen before. See True Places Magazine on our website for a more detailed comparison to a regular camping chair.
What is the size and weight of the True Places Emmett Portable Chair?
The size when open is 36" tall (chair feet to top of the chair back), 24" wide (from outer edges of armrests; the seating area is 18" wide), and 20" deep. The height of the chair seat to the ground is 18". When folded, the chair is 36" tall, 9" wide, and 8" deep. The chair weighs 10.9 pounds. The weight capacity is 300lb.
Can I use the Emmett Portable Chair at the beach?
We do not recommend heavy usage at the beach (at least sandy beaches!) More specifically, heavy exposure to sand in and around the folding mechanism and locking system may make the chair difficult to open and close. We built the Emmett to last and with the highest quality materials for most situations (backyard, around the firepit, at the park, on the sidelines, tailgates...the list goes on!), but be aware the folding design was not intended for primary use in sand and salt water.

Our Story
We Spend a Ton of Time Outside with Family and Friends; Why Were We Using Uncomfortable Stuff?!
While spending hours every week in our backyards, on the sidelines of kids sports games and at movies in the park, we realized we were using low quality camping gear that wasn't designed for those occasions. We started wondering: why is anything portable so uncomfortable, and anything comfortable so immovable? And why weren't companies designing modern products for this huge part of our lives, time spent just outside our doors? So we started True Places to do something about it. It turns out it's not easy creating a new kind of portable chair, especially during a global pandemic, but after years of development and perseverance, and a patent on a new way to fold a chair, we got there. We can't wait for you to try the result - the Emmett portable chair!
