Sure, you can go to the beach for a workout, but if your reason for going to the beach is total relaxation, then you’ll need a comfortable seat. This means you’ll also need to lug your chair across the sand which doesn’t sound the least bit relaxing.

That’s why beachgoers are happily spending $400 on a beach wagon — and not just any beach wagon but The Lounge Wagon from Malo’o. After using it to carry your bags, cooler, towels, and more, simply fold down one side to transform the wagon into a padded chair for two. There’s even a handy slot to hold your beach umbrella.

Malo’o Lounge Wagon

The two-in-one contraption sits on tough, all-terrain wheels and has a sturdy steel frame that can support up to 500 pounds. In the carrying position, it offers 11 cubic feet of cargo space for piles of towels, boogie boards, a cooler, or little ones (and their toys), plus mesh pockets and zipper pouches that can hold lots more on the outside of the wagon.

When you’re ready to relax, fold one of the walls down to create a padded bench big enough for two adults, complete with cup holders and back cushions. The back of the seat also collapses for flat storage. Fully folded, with the wheels, it measures 44 by 24 by 16 inches and weighs 45 pounds.

“I have to admit, I was incredibly skeptical about this wagon at the price,” wrote one Amazon reviewer. “But after my leap of financial faith, I have to say [this is] the best freakin’ wagon ever.”

“I use it for the beach, sporting events, camping, the park, bringing in groceries — I love it so much, I look for ways to use it,” another reviewer said. Others have called it the “Cadillac of wagons,” a “total game changer,” and “literally the best invention ever” for kids. “If we are out, my 53-inch daughter can comfortably lay down and nap, and we are the envy of everyone that sees it. People stop in their tracks to look at it and ask us about it.”

Whether or not you have kids to tote around, this thing could be a godsend for your beach vacations, outdoor concerts, camping trips, and more this summer. You can even buy accessories for it like an umbrella and wheels specifically for pulling through sand. It might be expensive, but most people who have tried it say it’s totally “worth the money.”
