Great luxury item for backpacking! It is not the lightest, cheapest, or best chair out there, but we decided to get them at the last minute. We were wary of the more budget friendly options at Amazon or Walmart as they tend to be hit or miss. We also didn't want to spend more than $100 on a chair or carry more than 2 lbs. on a luxury item. I know REI stands behind their products, and honestly tends to be more plus size friendly than other outdoor brands. My husband and I are close-ish to the maximum weight. He is taller (6'4 vs. 5'2) and heavier than me, but we're both over 200 and under 250. These worked well for us once we leaned into them sinking into the soft ground. They are less awkward and more clean than standing and sitting from sit pads on the ground in the rain. This is now tied as my favorite piece of gear with my toaks long handle spoon.
This camping chair is lightweight, quick to set up and pretty comfortable. I really like the pattern on the fabric too.
Lightweight, packs up small, comfortable!!!! This chair is cute, functional, and high quality. Would purchase again!
Chairs are a little tipsy compared to other similar collapsible chairs. They are lightweight and easy to carry.
The chair is unstable. I sat in it and it tipped over backward. I'm returning it.
