Hey Gang,
Figured I'd do my part and report in on a impulse purchase.
I was at LL Bean today and was looking at the camping chairs. I stumbled on the Helinox One chair; seemed like a gimmick but I was in the store so what the heck right? I sat down in it and ... WOW ! It is such a comfortable chair; I had no idea I would like it so much.

They are not cheap (90 bucks), but they are made awfully solid even though the chair has a little give to it when you sit down. I spent a good 2 hours out back the house today in it; I really like this chair. The back and sections of the bottom are webbed so that you get good air access. It packs down ultra small, weighs only 32 oz., but can support up to 320lbs. Truly remarkable.
Cup holders not required because it sits close to the ground, and it has four legs so its not a trip to get in and out of like that Monarch chair I've seen.
Grabbed 2 for the wife and I. I just saved a whole bunch of room in the truck since I don't need the full size Colemans anymore. Plus, as the kids get involved w/ field sports I now have the ideal chair to lug around the fields.
I could've saved some tax buy getting the chair online, however since I bought it from LL Bean it now has the lifetime warranty with it. :cool:
These chairs are sweet, though some of our older campers may have issues getting out of them. I let my Mom sit in one and she found it very comfortable, but needed a hand to get her out of it.
