How to Choose a Camping Chair?
Having camped for so many years, I've bought countless chairs. With so many types and styles on the market, many people don't know how to choose. Today, I'll share a few chairs I've used, hoping to help you.
Beech/Oak Kemet Chair
This chair is my favorite and also my best-selling one. Both aluminum alloy and solid wood chairs are popular. I chose the solid wood Kemet chair for several reasons. First, chairs made of beech, oak, and teak have a particularly good texture, look great in photos, and feel wonderful to the touch. Second, this chair can be completely disassembled, making it very compact when folded, measuring only 58 x 15 x 13 cm, which is very convenient. Many people think solid wood is too heavy, but it's not. The chair I bought weighs 2.3 kg, similar to a typical aluminum alloy chair, which is around 2 kg. Most aluminum alloy chairs cannot be disassembled and can only be folded, taking up more space. In terms of price, aluminum alloy chairs don't offer much of an advantage; large chairs start at around 100 yuan, while branded ones are around 200 yuan. In contrast, beechwood chairs are only 200 yuan, convenient, and have a good feel, making them excellent value for money.
Beechwood Butterfly Chair
I occasionally take this chair with me, mainly because I bought the large size. It's quite long when folded, making it inconvenient to carry. However, it's very easy to assemble and disassemble, which is great. This chair offers excellent support and the backrest provides good comfort. I bought it for 160 yuan, which is good value for money.
Three-position Adjustable Recliner
This chair is made of aluminum alloy and has a three-position adjustable backrest, making it comfortable for both reclining and sitting. It weighs 4kg and is bulky when folded, making it inconvenient to carry if you have a small car. I haven't used it much, mainly because it takes up too much space. I bought it for 220 yuan, which I feel is a bit overpriced.
