PROMENADE

I was super impressed by this chair. My friend has a Helinox chair and this was more roomy and way more comfortable. I'd be happy sitting in this for hours by the campfire. As others have said it was slightly difficult to put together, not because the instructions are hard to follow or its complicated, but the last bit of frame that you have to put into the fabric requires you to pull reasonably hard to create enough tension to fit the last pole into the fabric. Having said that I managed it without much problem but if someone wasn't particularly strong they might struggle a bit but other than that I'd give this five stars. It packs down into quite a compact size and it is very lightweight. I can't comment on the build quality as I've only just received it but it seems reasonable quality and feels sturdy when you sit on it. Excellent value for money. Very happy with my purchase!

This really is a top quality chair. I have bought a few of this type and none are as tough or as robust as this. It’s very comfortable too as it allows me to sit more upright as there is no sag (I’m a big bloke with a bad back). Also easy to get out of. So it’s great for me. Lovely stealthy colour brown for wild camping (they make a camo version as well but not sure thats available in UK). The downsides: The side pockets are very tight if these are important to you (they’re not for me - besides I hang the packing bag between the legs at the front and I would use this for a flask and beers). Side pockets can hold a mobile phone but not anything thicker. It’s a couple of hundred grams heavier than the majority of chairs in this category but so much tougher and stable - so worth the extra weight in my opinion. The legs are set wider as well, adding to the stability. It’s really a struggle to get the chair cover over the four limbs initially. I’m sure this adds to the stability of the chair but I wouldn’t recommend this chair if you are not reasonably strong. However it does get easier with use. Saying all that, I’d buy it again as I really rate this chair and think it will last a long time because of the build quality. Great value for money too for what you get compared to the two £10 cheaper wobbly lightweight chairs of similar type that I have (of two different brands). It’s a keeper.

I wanted something that was small when folded down to take with me on days out and festivals. It packs away into my backpack without taking up a load of space, and it’s nice and light (for what it is) and worth taking along. I’m 6ft and closer to the 150kg weight limit than I would like to be! And so far, the chair has been comfortable and strong enough that it does not feel like it’s going to fall apart under me. The chair legs are short (it’s a small chair) and you site close to the ground, but for something to have with you that doesn’t take up much space for trips out has so far been worth it.

Only had this for a few days but I’m quite impressed with the quality, it seems to be very well made especially the seat part. Puts together quickly, bit of a stretch to get the 4th part of the seat over its pole but that will ease with use. Overall I think it is very good value for money and should last a long time with careful use.

I toyed between this and a much more expensive item but glad I bought this one. It's comfortable if a little low and very sturdy. It's also very portable. My only gripes would be that it's a little stiff to install the seat cover, but I'm not that strong so if I can do it most adults will be ok, and getting it to all fit back in the bag can be a bit of a puzzle - the bag could do with being a little larger - or perhaps a diagram somewhere on the cover to remind you how to fold it up again. HINT - when unpacking for the first time make a mental note of how it comes out of the bag, wish I'd done that! Overall very happy with it.

We bought two of these chairs for travel around as we were fed up with packing and carrying the standard garage folding camping chair. I wasn't expecting a lot, especially when I saw how small the package was (similar to the size of a football boot bag). But was pleasantly surprised when I put the chair together (it is tough to get the final two corners of the material over the legs, but I suppose that's what gives it the strength). It's easy to pack back up and fits nicely in its own bag. Extremely lightweight and I feel solid and safe when sitting in the chair (even as a heavier chap). Would highly recommend and buy another if one of our was damaged/lost.

I'm a 260lb (18.5st) man that's into outdoor pursuits and this supports my weight just fine. It folds away neatly and looks the part. I would say the seat is better suited for those 16st and below really as it does feel like I'm on a childs seat a bit, but it is certainly adequate for my camping needs. The only gripe I would have is getting the last corner of the fabric onto the frame. It require's a fair amount of arm strength to manage it. If you're elderly or just generally have weak upper body strength you may struggle. Maybe there is a nack to it, dunno, I just brute force it. Overall, well worth the money.

I bought this because Andy on Kent Survival seems to use this brand a lot. It’s good as it folds down but it’s not comfy. Decent choice for camping with limited space but not a nice relaxing chair for the beach. A good buy is it seems robust and it folds down. But if you want a nice deckchair with a high back then go up a size.
