The Goplus Zero Gravity Chair is a folding steel-frame mesh lounger rated to 350 pounds. The Spruce tested it at home, named it the best budget pick, and liked the weightlessness and stability it felt in the chair, which it calls sturdy and oh-so-relaxing. It was underwhelmed by the cup holders and the locking mechanism, found the side table unstable, and warns that people over six feet tall may have their feet hang over the edge.

  • — The Spruce liked the weightlessness and stability and called the chair sturdy and oh-so-relaxing
  • — Breathable fabric held by double-strand bungee ropes, with an adjustable headrest, per The Spruce

Timber Ridge's oversized padded zero-gravity recliner is rated to 350 pounds and has a steel frame, an oxford polyester seat and back, an attached side tray and a sliding pillow. Bob Vila's test team made it the Upgrade Pick of 10 chairs, scoring it 5 of 5 for ease of use, comfort and durability and 4.7 for value, and found it comfortable in every position. Its one listed drawback is that it costs a bit more than similar chairs.

Strengths
  • — Adjustments to open, close and lock never felt too loose or too stiff, per Bob Vila
  • — Sliding pillow works as a headrest, neckrest or lumbar support
  • — 350-pound weight capacity with an attached side tray
Watch-outs
  • — Bob Vila's testers wanted a strap or lock to keep 20-plus-pound chairs from opening while being carried, a complaint they applied to all the chairs tested
