Chairs

Ticket History
Sylvia Mangan (Client) Posted On: 18 August 2015 07:53 PM

To all you fellow RV's and campers......I need a new, comfortable camping chair, that is supportive to my back, lightweight to carry, easy to set up, and with a wine glass holder, and a little pouch on the side to put my iPhone, books, or iPad in. Recommendations?

Zero-gravity chairs. Several manufacturers, but I bought mine at Cabelas because it had a higher load capacity and I'm not a small guy. Mine is so comfortable I started to use it as a recliner in my apartment (much easier to move around than a Laz-E-Boy), and now I need to buy another one to take on the road!

But you'll have to get the wine glass holder separately, I think. At least my Cabelas chair didn't have one. But I don't drink wine and so I didn't bother shopping for a model that had one. It does have a cup holder big enough to hold a Big Gulp, though. And it's easy enough to make a cloth pouch that attaches to the armrest with Velcro and has exactly the pockets you need.

Kermit Chair is best I've ever used. Check out website. Made in Tenn.

Get a small folding camp table for wine glass.

We've been happy with these. They have an adjustable back, a table and the ottoman is nice to put your feet on after a long day.

If comfort is a primary concern a look at Strongback chairs is worth it. Cheaper directly from the Strongback web site than anywhere else last time I looked. Very well made and comfortable. And I agree with the Kermit recommendation also.

Chair

Another vote for Kermit, especially if you have back issues like me. Just got my Kermit two weeks ago and love it. They also just increased their price by $20, but upped the warranty from 5 years to lifetime.

If you haven't already look up this thread "Camp Chair Mulling". It is all about chairs for camping and users opinions. Good luck on your search

A week in with my new Helinox and I love it. Fits like a glove, stores in kayak hull, assembles with little effort, sits up enough to eat in and very easy to get out of. The only negative so far is that on a windy day it tends to take flight if not weighted down with something. Two thumbs up!

We enjoy our strong back chairs. Very supportive all while being comfortable.
