A camping chair is one of the most important items.....after a fridge full of beer.....and one item I don't mind using up space and a bit of weight, if it's comfortable. My current chair has a steel frame.....much heavier than the aluminium one of the wifes....but at 150kg rating, it has not looked like bending or flexing in the 4 yrs I've had it.

Just one tip with the Helinox chairs.
A few mates have bought various ones (the real deal and rip offs), they are compact and very light weight. They are reasonably comfy to sit on for decent periods of time, but be very careful leaning forward....  :o
They tip you out really easily, we've had a few spillt dinners/drinks and a close call with the fire.
The point from sitting comfy to falling flat on your face is pretty sharp with these little fellas.  ;D

Other then that, they're a great little chair.  :D
