Charming and practical.

Nice C's beach chair delivers unexpected comfort in a lightweight, no-fuss package. Its crossbar design makes setup and breakdown completely intuitive, while the wide-set feet provide good stability on both sand and grass. The breathable mesh back was a relief on sweltering days, though the drink holder — attached to the frame — tends to sway more than we'd like. Still, it's a thoughtful addition.

First Impressions

The Nice C Low Beach Chair rolls neatly into its cylindrical carry bag and it’s so compact and barely-there lightweight that you could easily haul multiple chairs for family outings.

While the bag's fabric isn't heavy-duty, it matches the chair's overall build: the main seat material holds up well, but the mesh back feels delicate, and the frame requires some wrestling during folding. It's not as rugged as premium alternatives, but at this price, the trade-off seems reasonable — it'll still last through seasons of beach trips and backyard hangs.

Transportability

The Nice C Low Beach Chair is very portable — it’s one of the lightest and easiest to carry of all the chairs we tested, especially for a beach-style model. It comes with a basic carry bag featuring a drawstring and shoulder strap, and the chair slips inside without hassle.

Sitting

We found this chair to be comfortable to lounge in. It sits at a good height from the sand and none of the frame parts felt sharp or intrusive. Its broad feet and low profile helped it stay stable on uneven surfaces like sand.

The armrests, though slim, had a bit of firm padding that made them more pleasant to lean on. Of course, chairs of this style never have the most luxurious armrests, but we liked the bonus of a drink holder — something that’s often left out. It did swing around a bit on its mount, but it was still a nice feature to have.

The main drawback is the low backrest — I’m 5’7” and it just worked for me, but anyone taller may find the support lacking.

Final Verdict

The Nice C Low Beach Chair is a straightforward, no-fuss seat with the added benefit of a drink holder. It’s ultra-light and easy to transport and while cheaper versions exist, this one strikes a nice middle ground between cost and quality.
