    The Road Trip is nice, as are most of those Rockers. But for $80, is that really the best design GCI could come up with for a cup holder? It's awful! It's a small issue, but it's a relatively large price for a camping chair. It should have everything. Nice review! I know you didn't design the chair. 😁

    I"ve heard many reviewers complain about noise from those spring struts. Some of complained about tension being uneven in the struts, or just an awkward feeling. Haven't read about any of them actually breaking. Spilling a drink in camp chairs is a normal thing, for me.

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  2 года назад +1

      The struts can get squeaky when they get dirty, I've not had any issues with tension being different between each side. However, I have noticed that sometimes when leaning all the way back one strut will bottom out just a little before the other, but most of the time your not slamming the chairs all the way back so most people don't notice.

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  2 года назад

      In personal experience, the newer version of the roadtrip rocker seems to be a tad sturdier than the comfort pro, but I think they are both rated at 280

    Great review. What about comfort pro vs freestyle rocker?

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  2 года назад +6

      The Freestyle is an awesome chair and is great for when you need to sit forward like up to a table, or playing games but also gives you the ability to rock back. I would say the comfort pro is more comfortable but the Freestyle might be more useful in different situations. If you have back problems or have difficulty getting up or down then I would go with the Freestyle. I l'll start working on a video comparison. Thanks for your comment 👍

    I own a comfort pro rocker. It stopped folding up all the way after only a few times using it. Was looking for a video to see if I'm doing something wrong, that maybe there is a button I am supposed to push, but looks like its just a malfunction with the chair.

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  Год назад +1

      No, it's the chair. For some reason where the chair slides it binds when it gets dirty. When it binds I just kind of bear hug gently and it will collapse. Hope this helps

    Thanks for the reviews. How easy/hard is it to fix the hydraulic pumps if it ever breaks?

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  2 года назад +2

      Thanks for the review! They are a spring strut so there is no fluid. They have a lifetime warranty which covers the struts so if they brake you can get a replacement chair, however we've sold these chairs for several years and never had one come back due to a bad strut. I have never taken one apart so I'm not sure how difficult it is to fix them and I don't think Gci actually sales replacement parts. Hope this helps!

    Are these struts functional on the beach? Will sand destroy the chair? Thanks. I like to camp in Florida.

    • @hairry7899
      @hairry7899  2 года назад

      You know, that's a good question. I believe they should be fine because Gci markets rockers specifically for the beach and they use the same strut. We have used ours for several years camping in all sorts of conditions and the only issue we have is that they tend get squeaky. Just wash down with a little bit of water and usually goes away. Hope that helps 👍

    I have bought two GCI Rockers and after a couple years the seat ripped in half and also the backing ripped. GCI cannot fix the problem so I will have to scrap the chairs. I will not buy another GCI chair. Instead of buying a 3rd chair I just ordered a $300 Yeti camp chair which is UV ray protected and also holds up to 500 lbs. I use my chairs outside 365 days a year so they are in the sun and weather. GCI's chaIRS are meant to be stored inside and cannot gtake exposure to the sun....they will break eventually....lasts me only 2 years.
