Why it's buy-it-for-life
Reddit users report Kermit chairs lasting decades of hard use — one commenter's dad has had his for decades and it still looks new, another has used theirs daily for 10 years. Handmade in the USA (Tennessee) from solid wood with no support bars to cause discomfort, and folds down small for easy packing. Owners contrast it favorably with knockoffs that break quickly.

the legit Kermit is insanely comfortable & they're handmade in the US... super sturdy and gorgeous wood.
Kermit is gone now, but his brilliant chair lives on and is made in the USA in Tennessee.
I love my kermit chair, it's 100% worth the price, I've had mine for 10 years and couldn't be happier
I got the walnut version... I use it daily at my desktop and love it when I'm out camping.
