Product Information

Overall, this chair is pretty comfortable, along the lines of the other ultralight contenders with added back support and a more stable feeling. My ideal hair is a ground chair frame (the low height and lack of legs would allow it to be used with a tent's awning) with a chair zero cover (as it's half the weight of the cover of the chair one/ground chair). I am sure this chair will last as it's really well made but you need to be a stronger person than me to put it together.

While the weight capacity may not suit everyone, the overall performance, value, and user-friendly experience make them an excellent choice for camping, backpacking, or any outdoor activity where portability and space are paramount. But, especially as the years go by, lots of us find there’s not much that can beat the comfort a good chair provides after a long day in the saddle.However the seat material is quite flimsy and during camping the two top corners gave way, the upright struts had worked through the canvas corners.

The stool sits much lower than a standard camping chair so getting up and down might pose a challenge for those of us who are not as supple as we should be!I use an Alite Mayfly, which is a low chair similar to the ground chair, but it's no longer available. Very comfortable- I am 6ft 2 and makes all the difference cooking or sitting by fire after hikes or canoe tours. Another clever use of the carry sack is to pack it with a jumper or jacket and you have an instant pillow for the night! And, most of them have experienced a few welterweight friends borrowing them on our many socially distant overnighters over the last year and a half.

Was tight to assemble first time as many reviews highlight but mine is now more than a year old and is fine.

I personally find myself not using the “fully reclined” mode very often, as I prefer a more upright seat—about two-thirds of the way to fully upright is my ideal spot. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The Monarch’s base has only one pole hub, versus the competitions’ dual-hubbed designs, and that hub is constructed from the same lightweight aluminum from which the poles are made, versus the bulkier nylon hubs that many of the other chairs utilize. The nice part is that it is not an either/or scenario, as you can tighten or loosen the straps anywhere in between to find the most comfortable sit.
