Happy with chair

By Backcountry.com Employee June 19, 2006

I was pretty skeptical about this chair based on the reviews. It was really liked or really hated. I decided to give it a shot. I was surprised at the complexity of assembly and the size of the chair. It looks bigger on the site than it really is. I really have been happy with the purchase. I think that GCI must have made some improvements to the construction because I have not seen any signs of breakage. I am 220 lbs. and have used it on about 6 trips now with no trouble at all. Putting it together gets really easy after the first couple of times. The instructions are sewn on the chair so you can't loose them. This is just a chair for relaxation. Don't think you can do much else. It is pretty hard to cook while seated in it. This chair has been a big hit on all my trips. If I get up it is usually taken by someone else. That would be the only problem I can think of having with this chair.
