i keep breaking chairs

[Lao Tzu]

the last 3 reclining chairs i've had i've broken. actually, 3 chairs & 1 reclining couch. i weight 274 (i think). usually i either break the back (the back bends too far back) or the springs in the seat.


what does everyone else do when this happens. is there a model of recliner that is easily repaired if you break it? is there a reinforced model?

Yep, they make a reinforced one:
It's called the Fat-n-Lazy Boy recliner.

Just kidding, that's some serious weight man!

i'm thinking of one of those craftmatic beds instead of a chair. i have no idea how hard they are to break.

 

[the nature boy]

dude are you like diving into your chairs or what? 202lbs shouldn't be breaking chairs.

Funny story, I was in Ixtappa/Zihuanteneho a few years ago and we were eating out on and Island on the beach. This Island was a group of people that for $20 you got 6 beers several small lobster tail, a pile of shimp and whatever type of fish they pulled in that moring. We ate there every day. Any way the first day I was sitting with my back to the ocean on a plastic chair. Well the tide started coming in and the first small wave came up and washed out some sand from the back two legs of my chair. The legs snapped and I fell back into the sand. They brought me a stump over to sit on, because the did not want by big ass breaking anymore of their chairs. Everyday when they would see my group coming on the little boat they would run and get the stump for me.
