Good, but not great

Does not feel sturdy so I'm concerned about longevity. I know Helinox makes a great product so I'm not losing sleep over it.

Great lightweight chair
Likes
Very small and lightweight which is great for backpacking
Dislikes
I’m 6’3” 200lb, which is slightly too big for the chair. Sitting normally i feel like I’m going to fall backwards, but with a little practice you can learn how to not fall back. If you value weight over comfort, then this chair is for you.

Excellent Luxury Item
Likes
For what it is, this chair is incredible lightweight. Upon assembling it, I was skeptical of it's ability to hold me up even though I'm a smaller guy. I was pleasantly surprised when sitting down to see that it's exceptionally comfortable. I've only taken this on one trip so far but it held up well and provided an extra bit of comfort while in camp.
Dislikes
I don't think I would recommend this to someone who is looking to cut every ounce from their pack. It's definitely a nice item to have but not necessary by any means. One thing that might cause concern for some is that the chair does shift some if you move while sitting, but doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart. It's also pretty low to the ground so that may cause issues if you're on the taller side.

Not for me
Likes
I liked that it was lightweight/compact.
Dislikes
Not as comfortable as I’d expected and expensive. I returned it because I felt for the money and my type of use, I would be happier with a more comfortable style.

Very lightweight, OK comfort
Likes
I use this for kayak camping. Easily fits in my dry bag and doesn't add a lot of weight.
Dislikes
Decent but not outstanding comfort. But I knew that was the tradeoff when I bought it.

Lightweight and Comfortable
Likes
Lightweight and comfortable chair that is easy to setup and pack away. Great for car camping and backpacking.
Dislikes
Felt like there is a lot of give in the poles when sitting and readjusting (might be part of the design) which made me feel like it might break (it didn't). The feet definitely sink on softer ground. The ball feet solve this issue, however, they are way too heavy to take backpacking. The chair was not comfortable for my wife who has wider hips.
