50 Campfires Magazine : Free Subscription Easy to get out of, but you won't want to Summary : This really is a go-anywhere chair. It's portable, strong, and comfortable no matter where you go. Being comfortable is important in creating new memories outside. It is tough to sit around the fire and tell stories with nothing to sit on. The L.L.Bean Low Rider Camp Chair was designed to solve these problems and allow you to take the chair to places you couldn’t, or wouldn’t, bring other outdoor chairs. Here is what we loved about the Low Rider: Functionality: The powder-coated steel is wrapped with plenty of padded material for the arm rests. This also comes in handy when getting out of the chair because the armrests are at the perfect height to help yourself up. The Low Rider Camp Chair also comes with a carrying case that you can easily fit the chair into. With functionality, I also think about where this chair can go. Really, it can go anywhere. From an outdoor music stage to car camping, the applications are endless because of its size and seating position (9 inches from the ground).

It also makes a perfect beach chair. Comfort: An absolute dynamite feature of this chair is the mesh seat. It allows for breathability on hot summer days. The mesh also keeps water from pooling on the seat if it happens to be out in the rain. The padded armrests are a nice touch for both while you are sitting and when you stand up. With the height of the chair (you sit 9 inches from the ground) the ground acts as an instant footrest wherever you go. Weight: At under 7 pounds, the L.L.Bean Low Rider Camp Chair lives up to its claims as being portable. Remember, that the frame is made of steel and not aluminum. Adding a few more ounces for a chair frame that won’t bend is a win in our eyes. Durability: With a powder-coated steel frame, this chair is built to last. We have all had portable chairs in the past where the legs bend or the chair fabric rips. Not wit this chair. The polyester mesh is robust, yet provides breathability. Value: Just in terms of money, we feel it is a great value at $39.95.

Think about all the money you have put into outdoor chairs that have broken over the years. The Low Rider is reasonably priced and built like a tank. The legs are shorter and made of steel which makes them very difficult to bend. The real value though comes in portability and the number of places you can enjoy this chair. You can take it around the fire, to the beach, a concert lawn, an outdoor movie, or anywhere in-between. Stop over and check out the chair and some customer reviews on L.L.Bean’s website.

But those who haven’t heard the store’s name since their elementary school backpack may not.

The brand has one of the best return policies in America. As part of their “100% satisfaction guarantee,” LL Bean fully empowers its customers to decide what “satisfaction” means to them. Any LL Bean-made item can be returned with no time limit or proof of purchase, as long as you make it clear you are somehow dissatisfied with how the product has held up. “We’re the only company I know of that completely empowers the customer to determine what satisfaction means to them,” LL Bean spokesperson Mac McKeever told Business Insider.It’s plastered on plaques in the retail stores, and shows up on every page of their website. On an order email, I counted a mention of it no less than four times. With that in mind, it was absolutely time to put this lofty guarantee to the test. Hearing stories of people bringing back years-old camping gear and footwear, receiving brand new replacements sounded too good to be true. It can’t really be that good can it? I had a pair of old LL Bean Blucher Mocs that I seldom wore anymore since the stitching on one of them came undone.

I was pretty disappointed when it happened, as the shoes still had a bit of life left in them otherwise. I chalked up the breakage to the fact that the shoes were 4 years old, and had served their useful life. However, with the guarantee in mind, this served as the perfect excuse (however flimsy). As a New Yorker without a car, there aren’t many opportunities to visit an LL Bean store. The nearest one is in Paramus, New Jersey. So I took advantage of a family back home in New Jersey to visit one. I saddled up to the counter with my dirty, old shoes and asked, since they broke, what they could could do about it in relation to the 100% satisfaction guarantee. The cashier flashed a knowing smile said “ok” and immediately added some identifying information into the computer. No other questions about the shoes were asked. After clearing up a bit of confusion as to why my order information wouldn’t populate in the computer system (“They were ordered in the last two years, right?” the cashier asked.

“No,” I replied sheepishly.), the shoes were ordered to my home address in New York. No record was given to LL Bean showing when or even if I purchased the shoes at any point. I walked away with a written receipt giving me an estimated delivery date, since the shoes in my size were not in stock. I was not given a choice of another color, model, or size. Two days later, the brand new shoes were waiting on my doorstep. It my sound too good to be true. Surely customers would take advantage of such a generous policy. And while that does happen, possibly less than you may think. “We know that the vast majority of our customers are adhering to the original intent of the guarantee, that being to ensure we sell high quality merchandise and stand behind it with our satisfaction guarantee,” McKeever said. “Our guarantee is not a liability, but rather a customer service asset —an unacknowledged agreement between us and the customer, that always puts the customer first and relies on the goodwill of our customers to honor the original intent of the guarantee.”

The guarantee empowers customers to decide for themselves when they’re satisfied with a product, and rely on their own moral compass for guidance. In fact, I did feel a bit like a jerk at the counter with my clearly very old shoes. Buying an $84 pair of shoes once four year ago does not exactly entitle me to shoes for the rest of my life, and that is not the intent of the policy. But the fact remains that the company was ready and willing to honor my flimsy complaint, true to their guarantee. “We simply look at our guarantee as an extension of our customer service philosophy and our commitment to offer high-quality merchandise that stand up to the guarantee,” McKeever said “As a company, we have made a conscious decision to invest in our customers by standing behind our products through our guarantee.” At no point did I identify myself to LL Bean customer service as a reporter.
