The most important feature of this Kelsyus Canopy Chair is in its name, at least this is what the manufacturer thinks about it because this is the chair’s official name. So indeed you have a sunshade here which is a clever design – it transforms into the carry system when you close the chair. So you have straps with buckles and a carry strap to attach it to the shoulder.
But it has also what they describe as an ottoman, a footrest which is again a clever design with the bars connecting it to the chairs completely on the ground. So you have unobstructed access to the seat. The chair also has a cup holder and two armrests.

But this is also a reclining chair and I have added it to my list with best recliners chairs. It comes with a carry bag so you can attach it to the shoulder and carry it short distances. Please read more in my full review.
How to choose
Obviously, this is a matter of preference. All the chairs here combine a variety of features and you will know what your priority is.
Regarding the price, all of them are very affordable. But the prices change all the time so please follow the links for updates.
One detail that I know is important for many users is access to the seat. The footrest in front of it may be a bit annoying when you get in and out, so choose the design which suits you best. So for example, the Kelsyus Canopy Chair offers easy access, but the footrest is a very small platform, and perhaps you would rather have a big one like in the case of the Kamp-Rite chair.
Also, seat height may be an important feature. For example, if the seat is too low, and in addition combined with a large footrest in front of it, such a chair might not be the best choice for elderly users.
Thank you for reading. This list will be updated regularly as I find some good chairs on the market. So do bookmark this text and visit it from time to time. I wish you a nice day.
