Fab1 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Hi guys, any recommendations on fishing/camping chairs rated to at least 120-130kg no more than $50 each or so if possible. The lighter and easier to pack the better our old ones were like this but that was when we were all significantly lighter. cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 It seems unless you are going buy really good (read expensive) chairs, then they are all pretty much the same, most are steel now, so not exactly lightweight, I got a couple with big plastic ends on the legs so they don’t sink into the dirt/grass cheap from a camping store years ago, and they have been good, but certainly not light or small when folded. Most of them are a good source of entertainment when they collapse, sink or tip over when those of us with the “fuller figure” sit on them……. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Hornet Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Google Marquee directors chair. I have a couple of them and they’re quite comfortable though rated to 110kg and about $65, which might be close enough. I got them from that place that sells the sausage sandwiches, so they’re readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restyle Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 although outside you're budget, i have the oztent king kokoda chair. had it for nearly 5 years, on sand, in the pissing rain and salt and its near brand new. Its by far the most comfortable chair i have ever used. weighs like 5 kgs and 150kg rating and most importantly has a insulated stubby holder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowie Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 As Restyle stated, they are good chairs, but you wanted a fishing chair - does that mean you will catch fish while sitting in the chair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had a few stacks over the years.Funniest chair incident I seen was the father in-laws chair collapse and he grabbed onto the table cloth at a family wedding dragging all the 💩 off the table onto the floor.😂😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
