Big Joe Solvana™ Chair — Assembly Instructions
Helpful Tips
- The insert will begin expanding immediately once unwrapped. It may continue to expand slightly over the next 24 hours.
- The insert includes a weather-resistant liner around it; fully zip it closed and ensure it remains properly sealed before placing the fabric cover on.
- As you assemble, match the seams and corners of the insert with the corresponding seams and corners of the fabric cover for the best fit.
Step 1
- Locate the chair’s fabric cover and foam insert inside the box.
- Carefully unroll the insert from its vacuum-sealed wrapping, taking care not to puncture it.
- Identify the parts:
- 1 chair fabric cover
- 1 foam chair insert with weather-resistant liner
Caution — Take Care While Opening
Your chair comes packed tightly in vacuum-sealed wrapping. When opening:
- Use scissors to cut open the wrapping.
- Avoid cutting too deep into the plastic to prevent damage to the chair.
Step 2
- Ensure the insert’s weather-resistant liner is fully zipped closed before putting the fabric cover on.
- You should not see any inner foam exposed.
- Position the fabric cover with the mesh panel at the back of the chair, keeping the panel extended out.
- If needed, the panel can be fully removed and zipped back on.
- Drape the back section of the cover over the insert’s back support.
- Pull the cover downward, aligning the seams as you go.
Step 3
- Once the cover is fully wrapped around the insert, flip the chair upside down to access the bottom.
- Pull the bottom panel of the cover closed over the insert’s bottom.
- Zip the panel shut.
- Fold the small top overlay panel back into place to conceal the zipper.
Step 4
Flip the chair upright and enjoy!

"Why is my Solvana cover not zipping or fitting correctly"
→ Please ensure the Big Joe tag on the cover is aligned with the right-side back seam of the chair, about a third of the way down, as shown below. If the cover is placed on backwards, it may bunch at the bottom, fit incorrectly, or prevent the zipper from fully closing.
