Key features & benefits

Overview

This Snow Peak Take! Bamboo Chair is the low version, they have yet another which has Long in the name. In both cases this is about the backrest length, while both chairs are with the same seat height. Only when you see the chair from the side you realize how low the backrest really is:

The chair has only two separate pieces, a folding frame and a sling that you attach on the four ends of its poles. So this is a very easy to use construction that folds to a very thin bundle shown in the picture below.

Materials

So the frame includes 4 bamboo poles and X-crossed aluminum support bars visible in the picture below, and this all is with steel fittings. The fee are narrow and this is not the best design for a soft ground or for a floored family camping tent.

I already mentioned its fabric, so this is a removable cotton-canvas piece that you can wash in a machine. There is no carry bag.

Who is this chair for

Regarding the capacity, the chair is for users of up to 220 lb (100 kg). This is good enough for most of users, but indeed the value is modest.

Regarding the dimensions, you have 21.6 x 24.8 x 29.5 inches (55 x 63 x 75 cm) so the chair is moderate. 

Regarding the weight, the chair is light with its 6.6 lb (3 kg). When folded as shown previously in the text, its size is not bad, it measures 38.5 x 6 x 3.9 inches (98 x 15 x 10 cm). So for long distances you need a car.

Regarding the price, there are big differences from seller to seller, you will have links below so check from your side.
