What makes the uquip Sandy stand out as a beach chair?
Wide Sand-Feet: no sinking in the sand
The biggest issue with many folding beach chairs: narrow feet that sink into sand immediately. The uquip Sandy solves it with extra wide feet (Sand-Feet) that spread the load – on fine beach sand, soft grass or loose ground at the lake.
High backrest & comfort for seniors – Sandy XL
The Sandy XL has an extra long backrest that supports the entire back up to the shoulders. The sturdy armrests make getting up easier – especially for seniors and anyone with knee issues. The backrest folds down completely, so the packed size stays compact.
Low-profile design: concert & festival chair
The low seat height doesn't block the view – many open-air concerts and festivals only allow flat models. The uquip Sandy at approx. 25 cm seat height is the classic Low Rider Beach Chair. Also popular as a fishing chair: compact packed size, wide feet on any surface.
