Great Chair At A Great Price.

I tried a few other camp chairs and by far the BA is the best one for someone my size – 6 feet tall. Public lands had a great deal and with my member credit, I got extra dollars off. Shipped to me in a good time.

Why Did I Wait So Long!

This chair is the bees knees. Lighter options out there but this thing is comfy and sturdy. Will be on all my backpacking trips. Especially in the winter trips.

The King Of Backpacking Chairs

This chair does it all. Compact, light, and COMFORTABLE. I tried a couple different brands, but this chair actually felt stout despite weighing less than a unicorn toot.

Big Ag

It's a great chair. My friends and family tried lots of light weight collapsible chairs because we boat, backpack ski into yurts and a number of activities that require compact light weight equipment. Lots of chairs fit that bill, but not all are very comfortable, the Big Ag was the most comfortable of all the models we tried.

Lightweight Great For Backpacking

I’ve only used it once but I love that it’s so lightweight and very comfortable. Perfect for backpacking! The seat needs to be a bit more stretched out to easily get over the tops of the chair legs but it will the longer it sits put together .

Comfortable Chailr

I decided to go with the Skyline because of the height. I’m a little older now. So I prefer not to have to squat so low to sit. It’s a little more heavier than the 1 pound I would Like but I will sacrifice a little weight for a taller chair.

Stable, Lightweight Grab & Go Chair

I was looking for a versatile, compact, lightweight camping chair to throw into my pack for backpacking trips, but I also wanted to something I could easily fit into a daypack to be able to pop a squat and relax no matter the setting. This chair fits the bill perfectly. It has a solid, stable stance, and sits up higher than other super-light camping chairs I've tried, meaning it's much easier to get in and out of after miles on trail. This chair is quality top to bottom, definitely would recommend for anyone looking for a super packable, light, on-the-go chair.

Comfortable And Lightweight

Great chair that I took backpacking. Very sturdy and comfortable compared to other smaller chairs but still very light. It’s slightly more tricky to put together and take down but that’s the trade off

Great Product!

I bought this for bikepacking and it is perfect for me. I'm 6'-3" tall and 220# and probably at the upper limit of size. I would highly recommend this chair!

Happy Take-me-everywhere-chair

I got one a few years ago since my husband and I live in the city and ride our bikes to beaches and picnics. He always loved mine so we finally got one for him! It’s so lightweight and takes up almost no room in our backpacks. It’s not too bad of a learning curve to stretch the fabric on, and it has become easier and faster with time so definitely don’t let that get you down (I originally got him the ultra lightweight one, but couldn’t get that seat on to save my life so went back to this model and it’s great). If you can, spring for the one with a cup holder. I know we often think about how handy that would be…(often!)

Wish List Come True!

I used to have a 1 lb. UL Chair (still do, its just broken.) My two main issues were (1) it was too low to the ground and (2) the plastic joints broke! I would rather carry a chair that is a little heavier to have 6" more off the ground, I no longer have to "roll out" of the chair to get up (this could have contributed to the joints breaking.) With this "Joint free" design, there are no plastic pieces to crack and break. The "sloped" back legs also keep the legs from sinking into the ground as much (problem #3 solved.) All in all a great chair. After all, what good is a 1 lb. chair, if you end up on the ground anyway!

Sturdy, Lightweight

This chair seems well designed and surprisingly sturdy for how light it is. Seems more solid than other backpacking chairs. Looking forward to taking it in a 10 day kayak trip through the Grand Canyon.

Super Lightweight, Higher Off The Ground Than Most

Can't beat the chair after a long day hiking. Really beats a rock. Easy to lug along and setup. Highly recommend. Wish I had known about this sooner.
