    Good review. I've seen these on many van life channels. Great for young people who are smaller. However, stability, back and arm support and comfort is very important to me at 70 yrs. old. I'll stick with my big, heavy chair. For me, it's worth giving up the space.

      Hi Nancy, I totally get that. Everything's a trade-off. If we had a bigger camper, I would probably get one of those big comfy rocking camp chairs. Have you tried those?

      Hi Ruby, I don't want to make any claims to a price that might change, so I included the link to the Amazon listing so people can get the most up to date price.

      @@TheVanThatGotAway one approach I've seen serious keto do is to let folks know about how much it was when purchased so folks know to keep an eye out and buy when it's at a comparable or lower price. Just a thought of a possible approach. I personally leave things in my cart if they are at an exorbitant price even i first learn about them and keep checking back until the price is reasonable.

    Hilarious coincidence. I just bought myself one of these chairs for my birthday. It was delivered yesterday. Mine is a bit different. Thanks for the review. 🌿

    Hey Leslie! So glad your back🎉. I bought these chairs and sent them back..i like a chair that i can sit up in..im willing to give up real estate for camp comfort lol. I wanted to let you know my husband built me a bed based on your awesome instruction. He did make it narrower 24”. Travel grandma did a tour and linked your post so hopefully you got lots of new views. You should check out the tour on her channel. Happy and safe travels ❤

    And you can play guitar in it, unlike the ones with metal arms that always smack the neck. Okay, on which I always smack the neck. No back support? That's harder..

      See? I never, ever thought of that. Sounds like it's time to take up guitar. Or how about ukulele, it's much smaller...? 😆

    I just wish that the legs were longer. I really like a much taller chair. Thank you for the info on the chairs. Always good to watch you guys in your video's.
