I recommend non folding butterfly chairs, which is the original butterfly chair design. Much sturdier.

Weather resisant vinyl covers are more durable and dry faster. The white (the only color I've seen in the flesh) doesn't look polyestery.

Both can be found at:

I like the butterfly chairs. At least you can fold them up and store them when it rains or even if you want to take them camping or something. Plus they are relatively cheap.
