Honestly, the lawn chairs kept the bilge water out of 'not exactly water proof' packs.   That does look mighty comfortable but you're a long/lean type guy. I'm short, 5' 9" 220 lbs built for power and need a chair that sits high and wide and can take the load.   I got one of these on order. I'll to a gear report after I abuse it for a while.  ;) ;D ;D     (You need to Login or Register

  I've had this chair for a month now and really think it gives a lot of value for the money. I've had similar chairs but they were nowhere close to being as roomy.

Fellow QJ members have mentioned that some chairs like this sit you so low that it's a pain to get out of them because your knees are higher than your hips. This chair has adjustable legs. I like the highest setting because it puts my hips higher than knees. I find that more comfortable for me.

Some of these chairs have a very narrow footprint.
That necessitates buying or DIY some footpad to keep you sinking in soft dirt.

This chair had rubber footpads that are about 1 1/4 inch wide. I sat in my yard and they didn't sink in enough to be an issue.

Another neat thing is they put pull loops on the top corners so you don't have to fight to get poles in the pockets. Put lower pocket poles in first and then do each top corner. No fighting at all.

It has mesh pockets on both sides of the chair as well as mesh sides on the chair seat itself. I will spray the fabric with Permethrin because I think the skeeters might be able to get you through that mesh?
  I like the mesh, it keeps you cool in warm weather.

  The chair is made in China which I don't like BUT they all are, so what can you do.

The company Trekology that designs them is in Portland Oregon.

At $50, I think they are at least worth a look at.
Big Agnes is considered by many to be the standard for chairs like this. IF weight it a MAJOR consideration then the Big Agnes similar chair IS lighter. Big Agnes has a #275 weight limit this has #300.

I don't doubt that BUT at 2x the price, I seriously doubt you're getting 2x the quality.

Check it out. You want the Yizi Go Plus roomy model.
