The frame made of heavy-duty aluminum ensures stability and durability of this camping chair. Also, each camping chair comes with small attached storage bags to keep your small accessories organized.
HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE : Sportneer folding camping chair has 3 adjustable height level:
I measure approx. 13" at the lowest, 14", 15" at the highest content you different heights need, give you better seat experience.
Non adjustable version sits at approx. 13.5”
ULTRALIGHT & COMPACT : These portable chairs can be folded into a small piece of 14.25" x 5.25" including the carry-on bag and still weights 2 lbs. It is extremely easy to carry during outdoor activities such as hiking, camping and backpacking
EASY SET-UP : Aluminum shock-cord pole structure makes this camping chair for quick intuitive setup
WEIGHT CAPACITY : This robust chair is capable of taking weight up to 350 lbs. This heavy duty chair is a necessity for campers, hikers, backpackers, adventurers and anyone who loves outdoor activities
Review Pros :
For the money, excellent quality.
Have held up without any issues with all of our use.
Easy to setup; easy enough to do so without instructions - takes a minute
Stable when on flat and semi-flat ground
Adjustable
Comfortable - not oversized and I like that - there are a lot of camping chairs and some are overly huge - you’ll see people sitting in them and they are swallowed in material
Light enough to hike with and to carry; I like to bring one with me on day hikes
When sitting on a hill or any other uneven surface the adjustable legs are a must!
Review Cons :
Low profile even with being adjustable.
For large users, they may want a larger size chair to be really comfortable.
Heavy storage back; you can drop some weight by not using it
Storage bag is a little small; can take some work to get the chair back into it.
Legs can be a bit finicky to adjust as you have to hold the leg with one hand and pull with the other.
Summary :
When it comes to small backpacking chairs, there are numerous companies who make similar products with some of them being really, really expensive. This is a budget friendly version which offers you very good quality for the money.
Excellent for day hikes and if you don’t mind carrying the weight, overnight trips too.
Car camping, fishing, hunting, etc.
When it comes the two chairs, the adjustable one is the version that I would select as it’s only a few dollars more and the legs allow for versatility that the other version doesn’t. The height differences between the two is so little, it really doesn’t matter as you won’t notice the difference but for setting up on uneven terrain, this does give you options.
Also, it has pocket for your drink and so on.
It is slightly heavier than the non adjustable version but only slightly and in my opinion, with the adjustable version, there really isn’t a need for the non adjustable version especially since they are so similar in terms of design, weight and cost. Think of the adjustable version as the upgraded version and the non as the old gen.

Great review and I love these chairs. I'm 6'2" and 275 lbs and these work amazing. I keep them on my overland rig and on my tour bike. Well worth the money!
Thank you for sharing your experiences brother!

what is the Max weight limit MY husband is 6'5' 310
@@kimwatts6338 They are rated for 350 Lbs... That's what it said on Amazon... Paid 39.00 Canadian.
@@kimwatts6338 out of curiosity, which chair did your husband end up going with? It's a struggle, it really is, to find dependable, strong gear that will hold up to heavier individuals. I'm sure I'm not the only one. If you can attach a link to whichever chair your husband chose, that would be awesome!
@@OldCootProductReviews we did not get one yet....still looking
I love these chairs. Bought them after Christmas in a 2 pack on amazon for 49.99. One chair came without the adjustable sleeves with the feet for the legs, they immediately sent me a whole new frame for the chair. Great customer service. I am 6'3 and very comfortable for what they are.
Big fan, love your videos.
Thanks again for another honest and detailed review another piece of outdoor gear. Your viewers/supporters always appreciate it!
I really appreciate the unbiased review with no affiliate links, really makes this review genuine.
Great review, Luke! I love sitting around the campfire in these chairs...comfortable and at the right height. Worth the extra weight. Mine weighs one pound and I strap it on my pack without the carry bag. I replaced the original feet with golf ball sized caps that keep it from sinking into soft ground (can be bought on Amazon).
I got mine this week and absolutely no regrets. I weigh 240 pounds ,have real bad arthritis in one knee and recently broke the tibial bone in the other knee and I’m able to get off the adjustable chair with relative ease. I bought my chair for going hiking and doing day trips with my granddaughter.
Mine is still going strong. Had it over a year now and used it around 50 times. Go the adjustable one. The pockets hold my beer or phone. Haha. Well worth it the 40 bucks Canadian I paid.
Thanks ! I was undecided until I watched your video. Now I know the adjustable height is the way to go for us
I love the adjustable one it give me options. I like the deep pockets and storage. Pretty cool chairs. Strength and honor Luke👍
Just received my 2 sportneer chairs.your review is spot on.they are great chairs.no regrets.my advice for a few quid is go for the adjustable chairs.but these are a good product.
Thanks for introducing a usable product that I have almost given up on. I'm a 260 lb backpacker, and have broken two similarly designed chairs rated to 275lb. I'll give this one rated to 350 a try, especially on uneven ground, and let you know. I think that uneven ground loads the components of any of these type chairs beyond the capacity of the component being stressed. Site selection is worth a mention for this type of chair. The chair is fast transitioning from a luxury to an essential item.
May I ask how the chair's been holding up?
it looks like your chair didnt hold up
I love my adjustable Sportneer! My wife and I both love them even though they do not make it out on all of our hikes. My wife loves the chair but hates the extra weight , even on day hikes. For me, it is not problem. I have lost 30 lbs in the past 12 months so 2 lbs is nothing for me to carry! We love taking them on short hikes where we will often hike out to a back country campsite, make lunch and coffee and hike back (sound familiar?). I just ordered an aluminum topper for my truck bed and I think they will be the perfect height for sitting in the truck bed or for camping in the bed of the truck. You should test them out in your truck bed the next time you go camping in your truck. I have been waiting for you to do another truck bed camping video and I'm interested in seeing if you build it out. There are lots of great truck bed camping videos on YT by a lot of creative and clever people. We have a really nice truck camper that is fully loaded for our travels (1998 Lance Legend 990) but I am looking forward to doing some camping in the bed of the truck once my truck topper is built. I have a 2007 F350 DRW Supercab V10 with 4WD and the truck topper is going to allow me to go further off road than my large Lance will due to its 3-foot rear overhang. Thanks for doing this review! I look forward to each new video!
Bought the none adjustable version a few weeks ago an absolutely love it.....really comfortable really good value for money paid just under £30 ( uk) for it....would highly recommend it great to take out on day hikes.....so what you all waiting for!
Note on price: My wife and I just purchased 2 of the adjustable chairs from Amazon based on this review and got a discount. 2 chairs for $52 dollars (1 chair would have been ~$34 as stated in this video).
The Helinox Chair Zero weighs 16 ounces, making it a no-brainer if you can afford it - it’s half the weight of this chair. IMO a 2-pound chair is a car camping chair (and if you’re car camping you might as well bring a 4-pound chair that’s more comfortable), but some people are on a tight budget and might not spring for a Chair Zero.
I have the non-adjustable version and love it but wasn't aware of the adjustable one at the time. I take them backpacking all the time it's so nice to have a real seat.
You need to get back up to the shed for another winter trip.. Loved that video
Hey guys. I have 2 of theese chairs, the adjustable version, and as Luke says, they are realy good. I have used them for 6 month now, and had no problems what so ever with both chairs. I am a big guy myself. 1.9m (6.2 ft) and i almost always have them on the middle setting, and they are great, to get into and out of. I am roughly 200 pounds and they hold my weight no problem. They are rated at 158kg (348 pounds) I can only recommend them to you guys. Have a good day, and take care.
In the video, you didn't use the pull tabs in assembling the TOP of the chair material to the poles that are the back of the chair.
I just rec'd my adjustable Sportneer this p.m. I put a grey Sharpie mark on one big plastic part & another mark on the end of the bag it was in B4 removing the chair from the bag. This helped me put it back into the bag with very little fuss.
Chair Material, the top of the back material & the 2 pull tabs made it easy peasy to attach the top of the back to the poles. The pull tabs are shown in a picture on the ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS that are included with each chair.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada
Great chairs! I bought 2 last year. Other than the excellent price, the weight capacity is why I purchased it. I’m 6’1” and 250(ish) pounds. Works great and my 8 year old son loves it too. Great for kayaking when you stop for lunch too.
I just found your channel; I really enjoy it. Almost everything you review, I either own or have on a list for future purchase. Great content!
Just got the adjustable chairs today. They are comfortable. This is my first time having a chair like this. I was looking into the REI before this review.
When reaching for something they seem a little unstable but I'm sure this is typical of these styles of chairs.
I own the nonajustable version and have had it for a couple of years now, great chair. I bought after market feet for mine,I live in Florida lots of soft sandy soil and the feet I got are about the size of half a tennis ball, and it still fits in the storage bag just remove the feet before you pack it up.
Great review Luke thanks! I just ordered one today. I have the Alite Monarch Butterfly Chair that I paid over $50 for. Downside of that chair is that the 4 corner supports merge into 2 and you have to balance when sitting in it. It won't stand upright on its own. Can't wait to use this one. You make it look comfortable.
They seem like really good chairs. I'd want the adjustable one. Thanks for the review.
I have the non adjustable one it is fine. Not too heavy and comfortable. Love it.
Hello mate, hope youre all well. I have a cheaper adjustable version. I am 6ft 2in and find if i lower the front legs its perfect for low tasks such as food prep or cooking. And when im done i extend the front legs and lower the back legs its perfect to lean back against a tree or whatever. On the lowest setting i can just fit inside my polish laavu. Bloody awesome.ATB👍👍👍
Yea I like chairs like this, I have one I bought at Wal-Mart last summer. I wasn't looking for a chair, but saw it and it worked out good
I'm 6'2" and I have an adjustable model (different manufacturer) and find it really comfortable. One modification I would like to see is the addition of mud feet (perhaps removable) to stop the chair sinking in soft ground or deep leaf litter.
I've had the no name chinese non adjustable one for almost 2 years now, very happy with it. The only con is that on loose surface, it obviously sinks and that's how you risk to break the chair. But Trekology sells a mat that prevents the chair from sinking. Fits perfectly on mine.
Nice review! Just put them an my Amazon wish list! Non-adjustable 2-pack of chairs on Amazon for $49.99 / Adjustable 2-pack of chairs on Amazon for $52.99 + free shipping for waiter set.
I have these and they’re awesome. I have the adjustable ones because of the side pockets: beer in one, my phone in the other. (Never bother adjusting the height since I just put my legs out like a recliner)
Perfect timing, I looked at my saved Helinox xl on Amazon last night and was bummed the price had went up $50 ( I deleted it from my wishlist at that price). For two times cheaper I can buy 2 of these👍 BTW the hack for the helinox is to cut a hole in tennis balls and use those for a footprint on the legs to minimize sinking.
Amazon has the adjustable version in a 2 pack for 52.99 and free shipping. Thanks for the review. I think I’m going to order!
Thank you for sharing I have been looking at getting a set for me and my wife and this helps.
I have 2 chairs very similar to these, both are different brands. One of these chairs has very similar feet to the Sportneer, the other has a wider foot which makes a noticeable difference not sinking in sand. The foot is best described an approximate 2" diameter washer just above the foot. We have used these for a few years kayak camping & hiking & love them, I see a tall back version on the market now.
I have the non adjustable and like it quite a bit. I put small tennis balls on the feet (dog toy size) to help keep the legs from sinking in soft ground. I’ve also removed the legs and just used the seat to save some weight and you can kind of rock back and forth in it too. One of the handles on the bag became unstitched so I had to use a different way of securing it to my pack as it rides outside on the bottom. That’s the only problem I’ve ever had with mine over the last 2 years.
I have the Nice C version which is almost 98% similar to this fix version. I love it. I don't mind the weight cause i do want to be able to sit and be comfy after a long hike. Having swelling issues it helps me a lot. For the weight difference with the famous Helinox ... well, it's way too small compared to the huge difference in price. Thanks for sharing
Good review Luke i have been using a chair (different company probably made from the same company) like this for over a year and had no problems love the adjustable legs and for the price very nice chair. Stay safe my brother and say hi to Susan.
Hey Luke cool chairs I like the adjustable one any way hope y'all are well much love your way be safe have a wonderful coming in week
Love the chair. Especially the adjustable one. It is a no brainers to me. Makes so much more sense than the cumbersome umbrella chairs hands down. IMO
I have an Helios but these look good and the price point is excellent
I agree. For a $5 difference....no need for the other one. Great vid. Thanks!
I have been looking for one these chairs for a little while but I did not want to spend $100 or more thank you for your review I am getting the non-adjustable one I have an Ozark trail Walmart one that is metal and heavy
Luke first love your videos. Second for those of us who are not capable of buying the fantastic outdoor gear can you Please do some reviews on the Walmart camping and hiking products. Thank you for your amazing reviews.
My wife and I had a high back version of those chairs, (great around the fire, some place to rest your head) very comfortable but getting out of them was not so easy for a couple of old farts. Returned them and found a similar high back chair that had a seat hight of 18" which is standard hight for chairs. Much better for us of the old generation..lol Great channel , enjoy the reviews and adventures.. Steve
I have the REI Flexlite, which is a good hiker chair, weighing 1.75 lbs. The included carrying bag has webbing, so it is easy to attach to the outside of a pack.
thanks luke! been dyeing to know what they were since I saw them in your vid a month or so ago. back injury, need a chair at camp. that's been holding me back from hiking again.
Thanks for the review Luke! I think I would like the adjustable chair better. Nice price too, I didn't feel like paying $70 to over $100! for most of the chairs I've seen that were the same damn thing!!
I'm gonna get one right now!Thanks!
Just ordered the adjustable off Amazon Australia for AUD$49.99. I'm 6'1" and 319lbs and 60 with ex-military knees so I might keep a hiking pole or stick handy. I bought the chair because I'm going back to hiking after car camping for years so need the 'comforts' but not the weight. I can spare 1kg for keeping me off the ground because if it is hard for me to get out of this chair, it is a major struggle getting off the ground these days. As always, excellent review, thankyou.
did it hold the weight ?
@@supernova1976 It does hold my weight. My only complaint is it is wobbly. My wife and daughter both love it but they are lighter than I am. I have three but I use a simple X style folding stool; lighter and works better for me. I lan to do a video on stools... stay tuned.
@@fatmanfaffing4116 Thanks for the feedback 🙏.
@@fatmanfaffing4116 Had a look at your X style chair in your Hexie stove video , it looks sturdy, my only issue is the cross bar in front cuts the circulation to the back of my legs . I had a nice chair that didn't sag stayed almost completely flat without any bar across the front, it finally rusted after 10 years 😂. Looking to replace that.
@@supernova1976 Sometimes I sit North South, sometimes East West; whatever feels most comfortable. I also have a collapsible plastic stool I use in the Pistol range video and the stealth video near my house. It is light and easy to carry but bright blue so I cover it with a sandbag. Not the most comfy. For that I use a huge folding camp chair whenever I camp next to the car.
Ordered the adjustable version. Thanks chap
Good review and it matches my experience with these chairs. I usually take them canoe camping because the weight isn’t a factor I use lighter options for hiking.
I own 2 of these (adjustable) and my BIGGEST gripe is trying to fold it back up and get it back into the undersized bag. You'll waste more time fussing with that than any other camp chore. We don't even use the bags anymore and just wrap things up with a rubber band. I don't know why companies fail often with this.
The chairs look comfortable. I have the three legged stool type, it’s surprisingly comfortable.
Love the chairs. I do have a similar one... there is a similar chair but that has some support for your neck and back of the head. I would like to see a review on that one. Thank you for the review. Looking forward to see more. Regards from PR.
awsome review was going to get these for the beach but decieded not to they look uncomfortable under neath the leg part but i like the size small and compact..
I would have been interested, but I picked up the Walmart version for $20 last summer and it's done a fine job. I believe it checks in a little north of 3#, however. I don't think I'd go with one of these just to save a pound simply because I likely wouldn't take any of them backpacking. If I upgrade, I'd likely look at one I CAN take, which would be one of those currently in the one pound range. The price point between those and the adjustable version here is close enough that I'd just go the extra $30 for the portability.
The feet sink into the ground. Check out the Travelchair Joey Model 7789. Has disk shape feet. Otherwise buy some rebar caps at Home Depot or use tennis balls. If you set out several of these chairs of varying height at camp, the higher ones get taken first.
Wow... adjustable! Nice one, and two only cost $53. Getting them soon.
Both chairs look great. The price is good. But I think I'll go with the adjustable chair. Dennis
Another great video! I like the adjustable idea a lot. I tried another brand that cost 3 times as much but weighed only a pound. Crazy right? ONE POUND! It was 11" high (a little too low), well made. Just not worth the extra $$$.. I'll be grabbing a couple of these with the adjustible legs. Thanks!
That is a great price but I went with the Helinox Chair Zero. It is 1 pound 2 Oz.
I think I would like the adjustable one.
I've got 2 similar(non adjustable) chairs and the matching folding table made by OEX, alot more handy for car/bike/wild camping (or hiking into the hills as you colonials say ;-) ) etc or when you turn up at the inlaws house and there's no room at the inn.......
I like them chairs..I like the adjustable one the best..both are great...love the review...everyone needs a chair for camping..
I own the non adjustable chair. I’ve been very pleased. I’m 6’ 1” and about 250 lbs. my only complaint is that the shock cord seems to be wearing out after just a one week camping trip. I’m not sure how easily that will be to replace. I’ve done it with tent poles, but I’m not sure where the cord anchors in these frames.
I have a chair just like that one and I really like it!
Bought an REI one for double the price a few years ago. Love it though
Thanks I'm buying one today
Nice , especially the adjustable one .
Awesome video thanks for posting this 👍
I paid $22 on eBay. Lighter is better and I'm happy to have a place to sit!
I really like that adjustable one.. when are you ever really on flat ground?!? I have a similar non adjustable one in the same price range...it's awesome...not only good for camping/hiking but for music festivals with multiple stages. I'm 6'3" and it's fine...holds up to 250lbs or so easily.
I’ve owned the non adjustable version for 3 years, and love it. I’ve taken it backpacking and on kayak camping trips. Lightweight and easy to pack up. I recommend. Wouldn’t mind having the cup holders, and like the idea of making them removable. Not sure I’m convinced of the need for the adjustable legs however.
Thanks for the great review Luke!.. I canceled my order for the REI flex light and ordered the adjustable sportsneer at half the price, lighter weight and more height ! WINNING!
I have the REI version. I like them but for only hard ground. The feet have a tendency to sink in soft ground and cause instability. Other than that, work well.
Chair Buddies feet increase the stability of lightweight camping chairs on soft ground. A set of 4 weighs only 5.3 oz and can be used with chairs of many brands, including Rei Flexlite chair range. www.chairbuddies.com
These are awesome I might get a couple
what about the durability of these chairs? I've had similar ones that broke within a year worth of tripping. the plastic X broke, the poles went through the fabric...
Excellent
@3:40 what kind of camp folding chair does your 6'2 buddy use? Lol. That's the real question!
To get into it further, most of these types of chairs have a weight capacity of around 330 lb... The Helinox line for example. For us larger folks watching your channel, you don't know how painful it is to sift through hundreds of RUclips videos saying that the weight capacity is 400 lb (Moon Lence), 350 lb, etc, only to find out that they break after 2 or 3 uses.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who is all yours if you have a great suggestion for a compact, light, folding camp chair that will hold a true 400 lb person.
If you can do a video in conjunction with say one or two of your larger friends, and have their input and their opinion in the video, that would be awesome!
Luke have u seen the underquilt they make for these chairs?? I think u can get them at Dutchware Hammocks
Thanks for the review! Would you recommend them over the OneTigris chair (which you have previously reviewed)?
Thank you, adjustable chair for me!
Nice review. I like your mic. Are you using the Rode shotgun style mic? Which version??
I just bought the adjustable version. Can’t work out how to put it back in the bag 😂
Though similiar, what would you say is the better choice. This adjustable chair or the OneTigris?
I wonder if these would be ok on a river sandbank. I paddle board camp and dont always use my Jerry chair on trips. This might could replace it
I like the Helinox chair I’ve got. 👍🏻
Yeah but we dont like the price. 110 Dollars for the same exact thing but from a "name brand". No thankyou.
supergameaddicted - the Helinox Chair Zero weighs 16 ounces. That puts it in another universe when it comes to weight. You are not just paying for a brand name, you’re paying for the innovation and lighter weight.
@@supergameaddicted Helinox chairs aren't $110, you can get one for $80 if you're patient. Also, they're not the same at all.
A quick $193.00 Canadian on Amazon are you shitting me, I'd sit on wet moss for the rest of my life rather than pay that kind of money. Luke just showed us all a pair of great chairs for under $30 and you are going on about Helinox. Seriously you have too much money.
What's the weight rating?
I just saw this review. I am interested in the adjustable chair, but cannot find it anywhere. Did Sportneer go out of business or do they not make this chair anymore????
Adjustable seems silly to me, since I tend to shift frequently when sitting around. This would likely mean I have to readjust every time I move. But I could see some value if, say you are on a hill and need to cant the chair back or forward to keep it balanced.
Con 2 is the bag seems to not have straps that would work well for attaching the chair to the outside of your pack.
Otherwise, the cost and overall specs are good, and a chair is a fantastic luxury item, even if you're multi-day hiking
It does have Molle hoops on it which means it could be securely fastened to the outside of a backpack.
Awesome
Did I just see you using the Wildo Camp-a-box mess kit? I was about to pull the trigger on one. Update please!
I love mine but on soft ground they sink in without four small pieces of wood
Snow and single digit temp friendly?
The adjustable one doesn't look like it would keep the weight rating if extended out. Does anyone have experience with that. I'm 250.
I love your videos. And also very happy to be leaving European union on Friday happy brexit
I love Mine However they sink into the ground if at all soft I have lost The Foot and caps Plan on using Hiking Pole Cap As replacements
There's a mesh I found from another manufacturer that the legs fit into if its the same size and gives a flat surface for the chair to sit on for soft ground such as sand.
@@kenjepsen4579 can you tell me what the name is
@@turtlefootoutdoors6324 Trekology makes one. Campgeeks did a review a year ago on RUclips..
Luke, What is the weight capacity of the two chairs?
currently amazon has the adjustable 2pack for $52.99 plus tax
