has anybody purchased this chair for use by a person over 450 lbs? I know it is advertised for 800 lbs, but would hate for anybody to get hurt

My chair broke holding under 400 pounds. I mainly kept it folded up in the kitchen with a LifeTime fold up table but used my rollator (it was just annoying trying to get that heap of steel out of the kitchen but I eventually bought another to keep there permanently). Company was over and I was using it at my desk for a couple of days when the legs just gave out and luckily, it folded where I ended up laying down (I have very bad knees and also bought an falsely rated shower chair which damaged me irreparably). That said, for an event its a stronger chair of its type, but would fall short of the type you could term the card table chair. I would not plan on sitting on it for more than an hour or so and today I see the results of your question in that this chair is being sold at closeout sites for $9 and $10. I would not want anyone getting hurt either. I never reviewed it and glad I didn't. Like I said, it was barely used even though I bought it in 2015 and once I used it for a few days and more frequently and more than two hours at a stretch, it was broken in under five days.

Will these chairs support 350lbs? Wanting to purchase for extra seating at dinner parties and some guests are plus size.

I don't think this would be a good idea for all that plus size i bought some but didn't have that size i know it can take 250,260 but im not sure about 350

How high is the top of the seat from the ground?

how much weight does the chair hold?
