Customer Reviews for the Kit Exped Chair

J. Truitt - August 3, 2009

Too bulky and heavy for backpacking. A basecamp chair only.
Purchased the large chairkit for Synmat 7 DLX. The stays are difficult to remove and the buckles and straps made it too heavy to use simply as a mat cover. The chair position was too tall to use comfortably inside my Approach tent. At 5'4" my head pushed against the tent ceiling. Would be more suitable for use in a larger tent. It is well made, but for too heavy for multi-day backpacking in the Rockies. I traded the chair kit for the basic mat cover.

One and Done
I was very excited about this chair kit upon arrival and initially seemed to be a quality product. Extremely comfortable but only lasted one night. The straps continually slipped free with minor pressure. Next, the lower portion that flips over and snaps in place had two different failures. The strap ripped off on one side and the material that connects the seam ripped on the other side. Just to clarify, I'm 6'3" and weigh 200 lbs. Bottom line, it's comfortable but will not hold up.
