This chair is fantastic. My husband bought two of them for us for a large group car camping trip we take with friends every fall. It's not going to come with you when you're backpacking, but it makes a pretty cozy home base. I've travelled with this chair to Prospect Park, to a company BBQ outing and to family home gatherings. Every time people marvel at my amazing traveling furniture. It blows up quickly with the included pump and packs down easily. When not in use on the go, this chair sits on our Brooklyn terrace as an extra piece of lounge furniture. It's been left outside in the rain, and has made it through just fine. I can also say that as a 7 month pregnant woman, the chair is pretty comfortable to lounge in (although a little bit difficult to get up out of without a helping hand). If you have room to store and travel with this slightly larger piece and want a comfy camp chair that's fun, buy this. You won't be sorry, and your friends will be jealous.
Made for the backyard or car camping or sitting for an extended period in an area with a moderate amount of space (I would have loved this in college with my futon). Somewhat bulky but extremely comfortable and well made. Holds air for days. Materials are high quality, comfortable and built to last. A very pleasant surprise but by no means a necessity...pretty amazing product though!
I purchased two of these chairs and they are comfortable and relaxing to the point where people fall asleep in them. Every time we bring them out, our friends always try to take them so they can use it instead of their chairs. These chairs are pretty big, but are definitely great for car camping. When we first got them, it felt weird to sit in but once you get the feeling of the chair it becomes super comfortable. The reason for four stars is because they are not as great when the ground is super flat. If there is a slight slope these chairs work amazing because they will lean back on their own if you place the back facing down hill. The chair comes with a nice bag and its own pump.
Comfortable, but awkward to sit in. It requires inflation with a pump, but with all the metal structure, you have to use your legs to stop the chair from falling forward.
tried it out at the rei store, looked like it would be super comfortable. its not. very hard and bulky. you're better off with the ALPS rocking chair. more comfy and portable.
These are so cool! They fill up with air quick. Really made camping and the beach much more comfortable!
