This is the camping chair you’re looking for. It’s miles more supportive and comfortable than that sagging off-brand version in your garage. The cup holders work well enough. Unfolding the chair is the only setup required. And it’s a low enough price that you can buy one for each member of the family. This was also one of the few camping chairs I looked at that was backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

That’s not to say this chair was the best of the best. It was slightly less supportive than the Kijaro DualLock and significantly less supportive than the Dometic Go or Yeti Trailhead. It would slightly tip if you leaned too hard in any direction. And while the Yeti and Bass Pro thermoses and beer fit fine in the cupholder, the silicone wine glass and camping mug were a no-go. But for its price, this is an excellent chair.

One final note is that this chair had a noticeably higher seat than others that I tested — making it a great choice for taller individuals.
