Review: Sehr stabiler und wertiger Campingstuhl, hochwertig verarbeitet und maximal klappbar.
Review: I have a very thin space above my cab in my Jayco RM19. Finally found a full-sized camp chair that slides easily into that space. The folded chair is little more than 50 mm thick or 2 inches the old scale. It is super quick to fold and unfold made of metal, very strong, no way this is camping chair blowing away, weighs about 4 kilos but very easy to cart around with a handle. Overall it's about 40 cm by 40 cm by 5 cm roughly. It isn't real cheap but ultimately worth the money because it should last a long time. But then again most camp chairs are kind of around about that $100 mark anyway.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are there any flimsily plastic bracing parts as with a GCI chair I recently purchased through amazon?**
A: These chairs are made by CGI Outdoor in China for Front Runner. (stated on chair's tag) They are solid chairs from my experience of owning a set of 4, plus storage bags (which are excellent as well).  At 9lbs each they have quite a bit of sturdy steel construction to them - and very little plastic. I weigh a little over 200lbs and have never felt any sort of give or flimsiness when using the chairs. Hope that helps.

**Q: Where can i purchase the carrying bag? Can’t find on Amazon**
A: Front runner outfitters-Amazon

**Q: Dimensions folded and unfolded?  Seating height?**
A: Hi! The folded dimensions are:

18 x 17.6 x 3.3 inches

Seating height is 17" tall and the seat is 20" wide when opened.

**Q: Can the fabric pieces be removed for cleaning?**
A: Hi Emma,

The back rest fabric can be removed, but the rest of the fabric is not removable. It can be cleaned with a damp rag with a little soap if needed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by N***. on 23 March 2019*

Brilliant chair, best combination of speed to erect and collapse, robustness, comfort, and small folded size. When you think about it, those are the factors that are most important for car camping and 4wd touring. We have light chairs that pack small and are comfortable, but they are fussy to erect so we don’t use them for quick stops. We have quick erect 3 legged stools that we were also carrying that we used for lunch stops etc. now we leave all other chairs behind and simply take 2 FrontRunner Expander Campiing Chairs with us wherever we go. They are the perfect height for relaxing or for eating dinner on your lap or off a table, low enough for comfort but high enough to get out of quickly (my wife has injured her leg and but can still get out of these chairs quickly). Highly recommended. Robustness means slightly heavier than you might expect, but it’s all steel and looks and feels like they’ll last a lifetime of happy camping, and now we travel with just 2 chairs not 4. It’d be nice if FrontRunner sold the cover with the chair as a package on Amazon.
