Abstract
A folding chair with increased stability having side legs comprising rear portions pivotably connected to lower portions of the rear legs and extending at an acute angle from the rear legs toward the curved portions, and forward portions extending at an acute angle from the curved portions. The seat rotates about a seat rod, and the side legs pivot about the rear legs at a point near the bottom of the rear legs, to provide a chair that in folded position is relatively flat for ease of storage and transportation, and that in unfolded position provides a more stable chair.
