We used the new Alite chairs on our last trip. Very comfortable and packed small, this we knew from trying them before the trip. But an interesting design limitation was not being able to sit in the chair and lean very far forward to reach in front of you to pick something up. Once you get your center of gravity forward of the legs, the chair will skid out from under you.

Still we liked it. You just need to set things beside you that you want to work with while sitting, i.e. coffee cup, maps, book.
