How will you use the chair?
If you plan to take it backpacking, consider its weight and packed size.
For car camping, picnicking or sitting in your backyard, pick a premium chair that's as big and plush as you'd like.
Chairs for backpacking
Stools: These are the lightest and simplest option. They don't have a back rest.
Scoop: These resemble a sling and offer a good compromise between lightness and comfort.
Chairs for camping
Classic: Has four legs, a straight back and a flat seat. Affordable, stable and typically high enough to sit and stand with ease.
Low: A chair with four short legs that’s good on uneven ground.
Suspended: A newer, pricier style that suspends the sitter from the chair frame.
Features to consider
Price typically reflects frame quality and materials used, with lighter options often costing more.
Pay attention to extras such as cup holders, footrests, head and lumbar pads.
