I am looking for a couple of low level chairs (as above). When wild camping, I use the excellent Thermarest trekker chair with my foam kneeling/sleep mat, but wanting something for my partner as well, that can better be used under tent eaves, but is groundsheet friendly?
I found the Thermarest Uno which seemed perfect.....but are not available..........unless someone knows otherwise?
All? the others that may be suitable (precious few) have separate feet, which is no good........

unless.................someone knows otherwise?o_O
 
Hi Lol.

Seen a couple of this type fail with the net giving away..... Being a big chap as you are might be worth thing about...... Not wanting to pee on your bonfire..... Just a heads up.
 
Getting there.........there are a variety of these on the net, from £10-£45....., but still just relying on 4 pins, albeit with a semblance of a disc thereon.
That style of chair is about the only thing I've seen, remotely close. I might have to take a stab.............................

They do other ones lol , check out the fox range on the bay 👍🏻
 
Yup done so....that design still the only slight possible I've seen?
As a design, that Thermarest Uno seemed the boy (God know what price....?)....rated to 150 kgs...
 
Try the gardeners foam kneeler pads. They are cheap as chips. Glue 2 together having cut out a notch on the top layer for each leg of the chair. That should work i reckon?

I have a very old vintage one from the 1950's-60's that folds flat but is very low to the ground when open. Reasonably comfortable but too heavy to want to carry far. It would suit touring with an old comma camper van.
 
Ive got one of these...

The chair is a generic design all over the net

And I use 4 large furniture cups to stop any groundsheet damage and more importantly, sinkage.
