What type of chair is this

Here you have one of those chairs that collapse towards the center and remain large in one dimension only. So the packed size is 39.4 x 7.1 x 7.1 inches (100 x 18 x 18 cm). The seat and the back are fully padded for improved comfort.

The chair is with soft armrests, but the frame extends all the way to the armrest and on the front you have a solid support. Note that these armrests are adjustable, there are straps on the back so you can move the armrests up or down on the back side, the front is fixed at the bars that extend from the frame below.

You also have insulated cup holders on both sides, and next to them there are small storage pockets with flaps equipped with Velcro closure, for glasses, keys, or anything similar. Velcro tabs close the pockets so if/when you move the chair you will not lose the stuff stored inside.

Storage elements are on both sides.

Lumbar support

I wish to point this specifically because this is its most important feature. This is one of those designs where the lumbar curvature is adjustable. You have a strap that goes behind the back, see the picture below, and there are buckles on the sides where you adjust the lumbar while sitting on the chair. I have included it in my list of best chairs with lumbar support. This lumbar design is the same as in their King Kokoda chair.

Who is it for

Capacity-wise, the chair is standard, it supports up to 331 lb (150 kg). Many camping chairs presented here in the site are in that range. But if you need more, have a look in this list you will see some very strong chairs with the capacity of up to 800 lb.

Weight-wise, this chair is again quite typical with its 10.4 lb (4.7 kg). So this is not something to carry attached to the pack. If you need such a chair, please check this my list of backpack-portable chairs.

Size-wise, the dimensions of this chair look really good (W x D x H) 36.2 x 22.8 x 36.6 inches (92 x 58 x 93 cm). Note that the seat is (W x D) 23 x 19.5 inches (58 x 50 cm), and it is at 18 inches (46 cm) above the ground.

The back section is 20 inches (51 cm) high, so you have no headrest here. If this is what you need, check this King Kokoda chair from the same brand, or have a look in my list of chairs with headrest.

So all in all, this is a camping chair for car camping or just to use at home in the garden.


Materials & construction

You have already seen lots about the construction in the text above. Just to add that this is a heavy-duty coated steel structure. The fabric is a very durable 600D padded polyester.

It comes in a nice carry bag with handles so it will remain clean when stored at home, and you can carry it short distances. The bag fabric is the same 600D polyester as the rest of the chair.

Zippered carry bag is 600D polyester.

One nice feature is its replaceable metal feet. The design is also floor friendly and you can use it even in a large floored family camping tent, see them in the picture:
