Each arm rest has a built-in insulated hand rest. Comes with the same compact bag with a shoulder strap for carrying. This Core Portable Heavy Duty Folding Chair, available on sale for 30% off at Target, has a durable steel frame with a 300-pound weight capacity to ensure maximum stability while relaxing. A functional cupholder, a convenient carry strap, and durable fabric distinguish this kids’ chair from similar seats. But keep in mind that your kid will eventually outgrow this one. Despite the Renetto chair’s weight and bulk, our testers found it simple to set up and adjust.
Its base design is the same as for other variations, the Flexlite Camp Dreamer and Flexlite Camp Boss. After eight years of consistent use by senior editor Kalee Thompson’s two young boys, the REI Co-op Camp Chair is, she reports, faded and worn but still holding up.

And its backrest extends higher up than those of other chairs; this is nice for taller folks or people who like a good slouch with some head support.

Just because you are out in the elements doesn’t mean you must sacrifice the comfort of warm foods. This Coleman Brand Matchlight 10,000 BTU 2-Burner Propane Stove, on sale for around $52 at Walmart, is all you need to cook a nice meal at the campsite. If you’ve got back problems, try the The Kijaro™ Dual Lock Chair, on sale for $40 at Dick’s Sporting Goods.
Of the chairs we tested, the Coleman chair was the only one that came with a built-in cooler bag, which can hold four standard-size beer or soda cans. The chair also has the round mesh cupholder found on most chairs of this type. Kalee Thompson is the senior editor heading up Wirecutter’s kid coverage.

However, they don’t have all of the same features. There are also chairs that are hybrids between categories, such as the Nemo Stargaze Reclining Camp Chair, which comes highly rated and recommended. We’re planning to look at all of these chairs. The 4-pound, steel-framed REI chair has an attached carry strap, rather than a carry bag (which the other chairs have).
If space is what you need, the North Face WAWONA 6-Person Tent is a great deal on sale for 40% off for around $300 at Campmor. This tent has double-wall construction, re-engineered poles, and easier. Don’t worry—we’ve kept the vast vestibule that makes it feel less like a tent and more like a home. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

At a little over 7 pounds, it’s also the lightest traditional chair we tested—but it had the lowest weight capacity (250 pounds). It’s currently low in stock, but REI tells us this ozark trail chair chair will be widely available again over the summer. Walmart announces a summer cookout basket for eight people priced under $50, aligning with its Every Day Low Prices strategy.
