About Eureka!
Though the exact year is unknown, Eureka’s long history begins prior to 1895 in Binghamton, New York, where the company still resides today. Then known as the Eureka Tent & Awning Company, its first wares were canvas products--most notably, Conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets for nineteenth century American frontiersmen--as well as American flags, store awnings, and camping tents.

The company increased production of its custom canvas products locally throughout the 1930s and during the 1940 and even fabricated and erected the IBM "tent cities" just outside Binghamton. The seven acres of tents housed thousands of IBM salesmen during the company’s annual stockholders meeting, which had since outgrown its previous locale. In the 1940s, with the advent of World War II and the increased demand for hospital ward tents, Eureka expanded operations and began shipping tents worldwide. Ultimately, upon the post-war return of the GIs and the resultant housing shortage, Eureka turned its attention to the home front during the 1950s by supplying awnings for the multitude of mobile homes that were purchased.

In 1960, Eureka’s new and innovative Draw-Tite tent, with its practical, free standing external frame, was used in a Himalayan Expedition to Nepal by world renowned Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person documented to summit Mt. Everest only six years earlier. In 1963, Eureka made history during its own Mt. Everest ascent, with more than 60 of its tents sheltering participants from fierce 60+ mph winds and temperatures reaching below -20°F during the first all American Mt. Everest Expedition.

For backpackers and families, Eureka introduced its legendary Timberline tent in the 1970s. Truly the first StormShield design, this completely self-supporting and lightweight backpacking tent became one of the most popular tents the entire industry with sales reaching over 1 million by its ten year anniversary.

Eureka tents have also traveled as part of several historic expeditions, including the American Women’s Himalayan Expedition to Annapurna I in 1978 and the first Mt. Everest ascents by a Canadian and American woman in 1986 and 1988. In recent history, tents specially designed and donated by Eureka sheltered Eric Simonson and his team on two historic research expeditions to Mount Everest, this time in a quest for truth regarding the 1924 attempted summit of early English explorers George Mallory and Andrew Irvine. During the 1999 expedition, the team made history finding the remains of George Mallory, but the complete mystery remained unsolved. Returning in 2001 to search for more clues, the team found amazing historical artifacts which are now on display at the Smithsonian.

Sturdy chair for us full-sized people
I was looking for an alternative to the folding bag chairs that are hard to get out of and tear up easily. I saw these type chairs being used during the Fraley Music Gatherin' at Carter Caves State Park by an elderly couple. The lady said they were Coleman brand and that she had purchased them at Amazon.com. I found the Coleman chairs at Amazon but they were only rated at 225 lbs. Amazon has a helpful feature where they show similar products and that's where I found the Eureka chair. The Eureka chair is rated about 350 lbs. and they were on sale for about $20 with free Super Saver shipping. I bought 2 just to try and realized quickly that I had found the replacement for bag chairs. I weigh around 300 lbs. and these chairs feel and are sturdy. They don't cut off the blood circulation right behind my knees and to get out of them, you just stand up. I started telling my camping friends about them and they bought and like theirs. They dropped to a little over $18 and I bought 1 more, and should have bought even more. Now they are over $50 with shipping and I wouldn't pay that. This type of chair is kinda hard for my wife to close, but other than that they are wonderful. Me and my rowdy 13 and 16 year old children spent many hours at campgrounds in these chairs without seeing any problems. I would recommend these.

Too good to be true!
Skeptical anytime I order off the web before actually seeing the product up close... couldn't be happier with the results this time around. Can't beat the price of what seems to be a quality built chair. A very comfortable chair for the camping crowd.. for the beach... for any outside activity. Please do yourself a favor and try this one out... I think you'll be happy as well. Bought 4 for next years camping expeditions.

great chair
This is the most comfortable lawn chair we have ever had. It doesn't cut into the back of your legs like the normal chairs do. Will be buying more to replace older one soon.
