    I bought this chair summer 2016 and been carrying it in my car all the time. This IS the MOST COMFORTABLE portable chair that I've ever have. It is just very good design and nothing else. They just made it right.

    The day after Thanksgiving is my wife's favorite day of the year. I get all the decorations up from the basement then I leave and spend the day doing guy stuff with my son. She decorates all day while listening to Christmas music. After dinner we decorate the tree as a family. Win win!

Now that chair might be comfy to read everyone freak out about the diesel comment and REI politics haha! Great video as always! God Bless

    Getting our first snow here south of STL, no accumulation but hopefully a little preview of big things to come this winter. Can't have too much snow in my book and we sure are due for some, been a couple seasons since I had to put the plow to work.

    I have tried several types of camp chairs and the helinox isn't all that. I prefer the Kermit chair, takes a bit more space than the micro chair when rolled up, it's all USA made, of USA materials, and Really Expensive Items doesn't sell them 😉. I pack it with my tent on the motorcycle for adventure trips and it's never failed me. I weigh about #250, and it holds me just fine. The Kermit NOT fragile, and they stand behind thier product and you can even get a cupholder!

    I had that chair for 6 months when I was 14 (And around 130 lbs) and it's poles bent after 6 months of very light use with the boy scouts. I strongly recommend not buying this chair unless the design is ever drastically changed. With that being said I still think this is a great video Cody!

    If your not looking for something tiny and want something robust The Coleman's big and tall collapsible camping chair can hold up to 5 or 600 pounds. It's not bulky or crazy looking. It's maybe a little higher then a normal folding chair in a thin bag with a strap similar to a tent. They are only 20 or so bucks. I hate flimsy chairs, IAM a big guy and I like to hook up a sun umbrella to the back of it and a rod holders on the side.

Makes total sense, as a fellow dad I understand how hard it would be to make videos and juggle the family solo, it is a LOT of work, no worries here. Im happy that you got some quality Daddy time with the kids, and Mrs. W got to have fun with old friends.

Sea Foam? Sta Bil? Amsoil? In any sense it would be informative to see your process for winterizing things.

    Helinox Chair Zero is better. Can be found on sale for $80-85. Only 1.1 lbs, packs down smaller, and is just as comfortable.
    I'm pretty much over REI. They have always been expensive, and they did away with their return policy which is why I was willing to pay for it. I think the money you spend at REI could be spent at cottage manufactures and you'll get more bank for your buck. Its good gear, but not great gear.

    • @DBPCINC
      @DBPCINC 4 года назад

      I mean, I think the only difference is REI's is bigger which may put your legs at a more comfortable angle. That being said, I prefer (because I have it) the Helinox Chair Zero over Flexlite because of the weight... I wouldn't really consider flexlite backpacking unless I had a real good excuse to not have a bunch of other weighty items in my pack.
