Not Going Backpacking Without It

Of all the pieces of gear I lugged with me on my backpacking trips this summer, there's nothing else I've been more grateful to have then this chair. Creature comforts matter, and they go a long way with your camping experience. Sure, you can use a log or the ground, and you can save the space and weight, it's not cheap either, but an actual chair designed for humans is far and… read more above the best. I never regretted having this in my pack, and I won't go without it. They're fairly light and small, and are extremely easy to put together, they virtually assemble themselves, and can hold me and my weight with no problem. Not machine washable, but fairly easy to clean by hand. Treat yourself right, and get this chair for your backpacking trips.

So comfy!

It's ironic that such a lightweight chair can provide so much comfort, but it definitely does! I love how easy this is to set up, and it's lightweight enough for me to take on backpacking adventures as well. My best friend recently kept stealing it from me around the campfire, and her only feedback for it was she wished it had cup holders. I don't mind not having them, so long as… read more I'm not on a rocky ground in the middle of nowhere!

Light and sturdy chair!

This chair is a fantastic compact lounging chair. For the size and weight, it is surprisingly light! I used it around the house for extra seating for visitors and everyone loved it! You will end up being only a few inches off of the ground so you end up having to jump out of the chair when done. I weigh 240+ and this chair holds me without a problem!

Nice, light chair!

This chair is great! Light and packable. We take it just to watch kids soccer or baseball games as well as on extended backpacking trips. Honestly, this is just a great chair that does just what you need it to do... be a chair.

Light as a feather!

Sooooooooooooooooooo damn light! .....and comfy!! This chair is also extremely well made and durable.

Almost the perfect chair!

Light, easy to assemble and I really appreciate that it fits back into the bag easily after you break it down! Super comfortable, breathable and good looking... if they had included a drink holder, I would say it is the perfect camping chair. Drink holder aside, I would still repurchase!

Camping Essential

A friend of mine brought one of these on a camping trip and I had to have one after trying his out. Super comfortable for sitting around a campfire. I normally car camp but I suppose you could backpack with them as well. It packs down small enough that I just keep it in my car for whenever I need it. Comes in handy for post mountain bike ride beers.

Trade offs like most things in life.

For me this chair is a good compromise. I am 6'1" and about 210 pounds. This was the smallest chair I could be somewhat comfy in for more than 5 minutes. This one is wider than most and the sides of the chair don't dig into my sides, as it IS wider than the other "backpacking" chairs that weigh less. This one is sturdy and really easy to set up once you have done it a few times.… read more I don't take this backpacking every trip, but the longer, or shorter ones I do. Longer because I want the relief, shorter, because I don't care how much stuff I bring since it's short. it packs down small, but it still bulky. It rides outside my pack sandwiched in-between the lid and main pack body. It weighs over 2 pounds with it's bag according to my harbor freight scale. Here is the skinny: Not as comfortable as a full sized car camping chair, but more comfortable than the 1 pounders for this not so little backpacker!

Light Weight and Durable

I bought this chair mainly for car camping and it has been great! It is crazy light weight and it can be taken anywhere. I have even brought it with me on backpacking trips and it has been worth it every time. The chair is super light and comfortable.

comfy lowrider

a little low but that doesn't mean it doesn't get 5 stars, light and comfy. Quality construction

Great travel chair

I've been in the market for a travel chair for a bit. This one fits the bill as it is lightweight yet feels incredibly sturdy and reliable, The set up is similar to a tent, with easy connecting rods. I feel very comfortable in this chair.

Perfect camping chair

I got this as a trial run to see if i like chairs like this, and safe to say, they are awesome! i will definitely be getting another one.

Car or Carry?

So, when I think of car camping, I don't look forward to sitting in my Helinox Chair one. It's solidly built, impressively so, but simply not nearly as comfortable as a $5 garage sale bought regular camping chair--and for some tallish like me (6'2", 165 lb ectomorph male) it doesn't do anything for my neck and squeezes a bit uncomfortably just under my armpits. So, if you are car… read more camping exclusively, then just go for the garage sale and save your money. But, when I think about using it on a hike as an alternative to sitting on the ground, it's good: we used it on a day romp in the woods and sitting in it for an hour or so was great--and entirely made possible by the chair's modest weight and size. We never would have taken a regular chair up and down the bluffs on a day hike. So, how do I score this? I suppose I will give it a four because for its intended use, it is clearly competent, if only a little pinchy on a guy with broad shoulders like myself. But, again, if you really mean to use it when a regular camping chair will do, just go for the regular chair. But for a light weight alternative to sitting on the ground. it's great, and seems uber solid for the long haul.

Best Lightweight Camp Chair

This chair is awesome. It’s sturdy and so light, and easy to pack. Can’t go wrong!

Love These Chairs!!

It's just a chair, but they are light, easy to carry, you can fit them in a backpack, and they are comfortable. What more could you want in a chair?

Shweeeet!

These chairs are super sweet. Compact when packed up. Can't believe this chair breaks down like it does. Should last a long time, whether in the mountains or on the sidelines.

Buy it!

Pull the trigger this chair is worth it!!

Amazing chair for anything

This chair is not only great for camping and backpacking but basically anything. I’ve also taken to park, beach and soccer games to watch my kids. Super lightweight packs small and doesn’t take long at all to set up. All my friends want one now. Also it feels very high quality and durable which you can tell the difference when you try a simialar type of chair but cheaper… read more and it’s definately worth the extra money for comfort and durability.

Compact and durable

We love this chair! It is sturdy and very comfortable, as any good camp chair should be, but the selling point on the Helinox is how compactly it stores. Previous to purchasing these chairs we had the regular fold-up camp chairs. They took up so much space! With 2 adults, 3 kids (2 of them teenagers), and a medium-sized dog, space is at a premium in the 4Runner. Make the investment… read more in this chair. You won't regret it.

Great lightweight camp chair

Purchased this for an overnight kayaking trip and it was amazing. Ultralight, packs down to a small size and really comfortable. Highly recommended.

Dimensions of the chairs when set up would be helpful. I have bad knees, so if it's too low I don't think I could handle it. Same goes for all your chairs. I'd like to keep one in the chairs at all times.

Can this be used inside a 2p backpack tent.
