What this is about
This Snow Peak Take! Bamboo Chair Long can be described as folding and collapsible. This means that you have only two separate pieces, a folding frame and the fabric. The later you simply attach to the frame when you unfold it in seconds. You can see this in the video:
The word Long in the name describes the fact that this is a chair with a high backrest. They have yet another which has a very low backrest.
It folds into a quite long bundle shown in the picture below, but it is very thin. The measures when folded are 50.4 x 6 x 3.9 inches (128 x 15 x 10 cm). There is no carry bag here, pity.
The side view shows that the backrest is quite angled backwards. So the chair is for relaxing and much less suitable to be used as a dining camping chair. Observe that it comes with soft armrests.
Materials
You have some nice all-natural materials here. The frame is a combination of a laminated bamboo and aluminum plus stainless-steel fittings. There is no plastic here at all. I already mentioned its pleasant cotton canvas sling.
Below you can see the chair from the back to better understand its structure. Note that the feet are narrow, so you would not want to use this chair in a floored family camping tent.
Who is this chair for
Regarding the capacity, it is quite modest 220 lb (100 kg). This should still be good enough for most of potential users. But if you are a heavy person, check one of these camping chairs for heavy people.
Regarding the dimensions, the chair measures (L x W x H) 23.4 x 31.5 x 37.4 inches (59 x 80 x 95 cm). So although the total width looks good, see the front view below to realize that the space on the front is a bit limited. Very large users should choose something else.
The backrest is high, but you still do not have a headrest here. Note that the seat is quite low, 14 inches (36 cm).
Regarding the weight, with its 8 lb (3.5 kg) and such a design, this chair can be described as moderately light. You have already seen its packed size, so it is a bit long, and you need a car for transportation.
Regarding the price, it is steep, but you have a top brand and a high quality product made in Japan. This has its price.
