That looks comfy! I just came back from a rally where I had no where to sit. Hmmm.
Aldi seems to have some cheap prices on stuff. Shame it's so far away.

Ok if you reinforce the female poles where they join. damhik. Charlie had a a vice grip to clamp the split.
They've made the base frame more stable and the poles are aluminium instead of steel.

I sat in one of the same design in a camp store here in AMERICA!
It didn't seem stable enough for my tastes, and the feet looked like they would sink in most anything not man-made.
I never did find one that really suited my tastes.
I bought a Kermit chair, just to see what all the fuss was about.

There are a few cheap versions of the quality Helinox seat out there. They're very good but they cost though.

How about this 1960s beach chair?
Oh, I have a side car so bulk is no problem.

Steve, the Aldi chair that Sibbo linked to is a Helinox knockoff, not the crappy steel framed one that you bought and broke last year. I bought one for Jane yesterday - it appears to be near enough in quality to the Helinox.

I don't see a "buy" button on that Aldi web page. Oh well.

Charlie, is it taller than the Helinox?
