Great little chair than can go anywhere.
I bought two of these chairs for a recent trip to a convention, whose long waits in line were the norm. I'm approx 6'1-240lbs so not on the smaller side. I used this chair for 50 hours in a 72 hour span. While not the most comfortable chair ever made, for the amount of time I used it, I have to say this is a great design in its compact and storage versatility, and surprisingly comfortable. I now keep them in my car ready for any type of activity where sitting is preferable than standing. You can insert your own activity here. The size make this easy to grab when in doubt, and has often served as a life saver. Easily stored and low-profile. Almost no bigger or heavier than an umbrella. You will not complain taking it with you and will be rewarded by being rested and comfortable when you get up. If you carry a small inflatable pillow to sit on, you can really extend your comfort with this chair.Pros: Surprisingly sturdy but very light which means not thinking twice about taking it. The price is also very reasonable.Cons: Must be placed on sturdy footing or risk falling over. Can be said for any chair but the small footprint makes this more relevant.No back support means you will notice you don't have back support when you get up.Overall: This is a very affordable, surprisingly comfortable, and travel friendly chair, as such, I can recommend!If you found this review helpful, please vote "yes" below!

Great camping chair
Great camping chair. I am 265lbs and six feet tall so it works great for me. Great product.

One of the more comfortable crotch chairs
The 3-cornered "crotch" stool always seemed to be handy, so, I've sat in every one I've ever seen. This is one of the more comfortable to sit it, though that's not saying much, hah. It will be OK for some, and not-so-much, for others... for relatively short sits (maybe 1 hour, max). I finally bought this chair when I was headed to a dog field event. It did the job, and will be good for future use.The chair came with a few issues. First, the rubber feet were just pushed onto the leg tubes, but, not attached, and would be all too easy to lose. Each foot had a hole in its sleeve, where you can clearly imagine that a screw or rivet would go through, to attach it to the metal leg. I happened to have some aluminum pop rivets on hand, so, I drilled matching holes in the legs, and affixed the feet. Second, the wrap-strap would not even go all the way around the folded chair, and, was just in the way. I cut it off. Third, the carry strap is just barely long enough to allow a thin person to sling the chair over a shoulder. For me, it was easier to put the chair into my day pack (sticking out), since I would carry the pack, anyway.The top is made of good material, and appears well-sewn. The legs are of appropriate strength. I like the instant deployment of this stool. Zero setup time! See the photo, where this chair is compared to a Byer Tri Lite, and a GCI PackSeat.-- Months later --I saw a Slacker Chair stool in an outdoor store, today. The feet were riveted on, as I knew they should be.

A NON-BIASED/PAYED FOR REVIEW
I bought these chairs for my husband and I, as we are planning on taking a trip to see the ball drop in New York City this New Year's Eve. The chairs were packaged well and delivered in a timely manner. Both my husband and I tried them out immediately (mind you we didn't sit on them for hours at a time just yet). But, I can say that this chair is ultimately comfortable enough for me. I'm a 130lb female, 5 ft 5 in. My legs were perfectly angled 90 degrees when I sat down, so it was not like sitting in a kiddy chair for me, but maybe if you're a bit taller it might bother you. Didn't hurt the private area(s) of either myself or my husband. I've seen that in other complaints. Two little things, however, that I did not so much care for were the balance. If you're expecting to be moving around a lot on this chair, it's probably not for you. It can be a bit wobbly. And the second thing- I wish it came with a pouch for carrying, but it does have a strap! Anyhow, it's something I can do without, but it'd be nice. Hope this review helps!

I bought 3 of these chairs. The 2 blacks ...
I bought 3 of these chairs. The 2 blacks have different rivet where the shoulder ties are. The red has a screw, which is loose all the time. At one point the screen came off when I was sitting. I thought the fabric ripped and the chair folded over. This needs to be QC checked.UpdatePurchased 2 more black and they changed it to screws. It's definitely tighter.

Great stool, better chairs available
As you can see in the picture, Felix approves...For $20, this can't be beat. It is lightweight and surprisingly comfortable. I've tried quite a few chairs for backpacking, and there are three truly worth considering:This travel Stool: $20The REI Flex Lite: $65Big Agnes Helinox Chair One: $100All 3 options are approximately 2lbs.For hiking, I wanted something I could lounge in a bit more after a long hike, though, and opted for the Helinox. It is as comfortable as my couch. And I have a very comfortable couch. Not even exaggerating.This chair perfectly fills the "budget" space. For $20, you get a lightweight, comfortable stool. If you want back support and are willing to spend more money, the other options are fantastic.A fourth option is the Alite Monarch, which is barely over 1lb, but sits VERY low to the ground, and lounges too far back. You can't do camp cooking sitting in it, and it is rough on the knees getting up from it.

Great for when you're mostly mobile but really would rather be sitting
I have this chair hanging on my front door. I am able to grab this when I take the dog out to the back of the property to do his business and play. He and I can also walk over to the creek, him running in and out of the water up and down the bank acting a fool.....me, sitting like the sloth I am in this chair, reading my phone and waiting for him to wear himself out. No haters please - I spoil this dog ALL the time and he isn't even mine. This chair is super lightweight - no worries.

JUST ARRIVED AND LOOKS WELL MADE
I bought this stool to keep in my car for those times that I have to stand in line for more than 20 minutes, .like renewing my Drivers and Health cards at Motor Vehicles office.One Reviewer complained that the leg broke through the fabric. This worries me (I'm a senior) because I may only use this stool once or twice a year if I have to lineup for long period of time. If it breaks while using it I could be injured.I'll update this review after I've used it in the next week or two.The photos are to give you an idea of the size and height compared to an armchair.

Buen diseño
Muy práctico para senderismo e incluso para hacer largas filas o esperas. Me hubiera gustado que la correa que trae fuera un poco más larga pues en la que me llegó no puedo nisiquiera colgarla del hombro porque está super corta y tensa. El diseño me gusta porque sólo sueltas un lazo que trae con velcro y la abres en cuestión de segundos, y lo mismo si quieres cambiarte de lugar o guardarla es muy sencillo.

Útil y practico!!
Bastante practico y muy útil para acampar o cuando está en espera mucho tiempo llevas tu propio asiento, resistente, lo malo fue que estaba en promoción y quería comprar dos sillas y no lo permitió en los Amazon daysBuen producto y lo volveré a comprar si sale otra promisión

Mi esposa la califica de excelente.
La silla es para mi esposa, pensada para un proximo viaje a un parque nacional, acompañando a uno de mis hijos interesado en fotografiar la naturaleza.La hemos probado en jardines cercanos y funciona de maravilla, tanto en la facilidad de transporte como en resistencia.Gracias.
