Great review! Just bought a Sunset chair myself and was looking for a video explaining pack down/setup practical usage. This video ticked all the boxes!
Thanks for the vid, I'm thinking of going for the tactical sunset chair, even more durable. And i would use it for Backpacking/ hiking. I think the extra space and weight would be worth it.
I have a Sunset chair, almost 5 years, they honor their warranty even when i told them the kids broke it fooling around at a family gathering. They are easy to repair and just sent me the parts but were willing to send me a return label and they could fix it. I asked just for parts, she ask if i was sure and i said yes, 5 days later chair fixed and back on my motorcycle for the next trip.
Hi Tyson! Ricard here. Sweden. How is this chair to eat from? When you lean forward maybe over a Helinox Table One Large? Is it stable or will it flip over? Cheers!
Thanks man. What's the difference between foam and air vs foam. I don't want the bigger (plus foam) package when traveling, however, i'm not sure whether that's much more comfortable. Weird they provide no info on that.
I just tried out one that someone else in our house bought. It's much more difficult to set up than my Helinox Chair Zero. I came here looking to see how people set them up in case I was missing something, but no luck.
@@johngorentz6409I never even had to read the instructions. Just take the frame and shake it, then make sure sure the poles are all the way in, put the back on 1st, then the front seat post.
Well they are two totally different chairs/designs so... both? Depending on what style you like. The helinox is more of a relaxed seat and the FR is one that is more upright. The Helinox folds up pretty small, the FR doesn't and is heavier (made with thicker tubing).
Im looking at the Chair One XL. But do You think these chairs would poke holes in a tent floor ,if the ground under the tent is soft or muddy ? Thanks in Advance..
They would not poke a hole but they would probably leave a large indentation in the fabric where they were sitting. Helinox makes larger feet for them or you can put tennis balls on the end.

Thanks for watching and glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the comment! We have had our Helinox chairs for 8 and 6 years? They last forever and pack down nicely!

That's incredible!! We've had our two smaller Helinox chairs for almost 9 years and they are still going strong!

It does tend to keep the weight centered but it can be hard to try and lean forward. The chair puts you in a naturally reclined position.

Thanks for watching Ronny. I'm sorry but I'm not familiar with the air vs foam. It would maybe be worth contacting them about it.

Interesting, I've not found it difficult to set up.
@@AdventureRig It got easier after a couple more tries, though is not as easy as my Zero.

How do you and another guy named “Hank” fit in that small chair?
Hanks a smaller dude.
Helinox or front runner? I see you've reviewed both.

@@AdventureRig Awesome..Thanks for the info Bro..🍺🍺🏕🏕
What's the name of the orange mat you are sitting the chairs upon?
That’s a Cgear sand free mat which I’ve reviewed as well.
Great review.. Much more in-depth than my review :)
Thanks for watching Z.
What kind of carpet/rug is that?
It’s made by a company called Cgear. I reviewed the larger one on our channel.
