This camp chair is made with an aluminum frame to save weight, while steel tubes and connectors boost its strength and durability so it can stand up to many seasons of repeated use without bending or breaking. It has a large weight capacity of 450 pounds, so you won’t have to baby this chair. The seat and seat back are draped with a 600-denier polyester fabric that conforms to your body for a comfy fit, and it even includes nice-to-have extras like armrests and a cup holder to keep your drink handy. And when you’re done, the whole thing folds down flat for easy storage. At 11 pounds, it’s a little too big for backpacking, but it’s an ideal choice for car camping.
REI shoppers have great things to report about this chair. One appreciated its “sturdy” design. “Have given these chairs tons of abuse, and they still work great,” they said. “It doesn’t slouch down or back like a lot of camp chairs—you don’t sink into it.”
“The chair works really well,” said another shopper. “Love the sturdy construction and arm rest.”
With its optimal blend of comfort, durability, and portability, the Alps Mountaineering Camp Chair will be a smash hit at your campsite or wherever you set it up. Scoring this well-made chair at a 58% discount is a major deal, and this is a closeout item, so once it’s gone, it’s gone forever.
