MOON LENCE Portable Camping Chair Backpacking Chair - The 4th Generation Ultralight Folding Chair - Compact, Lightweight Foldable Chairs for Hiking Mountaineering, Beach

Update after moderate use: Finding them very comfortable. I've been taking to watching my children's sports practices and they are much more comfortable and convenient than the fold up chairs available to sit in (as well as a guarantied seat). They setup and breakdown in 45 seconds and are nice and easy to carry into a crowded area. I think they could be very comfortable for multiple hours. Additionally, the materials are holding up very well.I recommend these to anyone who's looking for compact portable chairs.--------------------------------------------------------------------------Another great Moonlence product! I have one of their portable side tables and it's been great for camping and taking to beaches or swimming holes. I've been looking at different compact chairs to add to our outdoor gear with a primary focus on portability so we can get away from the big bulky foldup chairs that take a lot of space and not fun to carry far. I was hoping to get something very comfortable, but knew that's harder to get in a small package and was willing to sacrifice some comfort for portability. So that being said, these chairs were an excellent choice.I would have no problem carrying these on a 5 mile hike or down a steep trail to a swimming hole. They save a lot of space for camping and make it easy to pack more stuff and not be overloaded in the car. They can fit in a backpack. Keyword: PORTABILITY.Durability, these seem very sturdy. The material seems very strong and reinforced in the spots that take the most stress. The metal frame is very sturdy as well.Comfort wise they aren't a cushioned recliner, but they will get the job done around a campfire or at the lake or for enjoying a nice view for an hour or so. I'm 5'9" 175lbs and I'd say someone up to 6' with an average frame would have similar experience. Bigger than that could be less comfortable.Lastly, it's quick and easy to put together and take apart. Shouldn't take more than a minute or 2 for anyone without mobility or dexterity issues.

A compact camping chair for when space and weight are a premium, while still feeling quite sturdy. Pretty comfortable if you don't mind sitting lower to the ground. Easy and quick set up and break down. I'm not sure of the weight rating, but it may not be as comfortable or durable if you're on the heavier side.

Let's start with the positives. I love how small this chair is for storage. It is super easy to assemble. I looked at the instructions once and probably won't have to ever again. The storage bag is the perfect size and you do not have to shove the chair back into the bag for storing.This chair is a lounging chair which means that it leans back more than I thought. That is nice if you are lounging but it makes it very difficult to view anything in front of you like a campfire or a drive in movie screen. Because the chair leans back so much you have to hold your head really far forward and it gets uncomfortable. This chair is small and sits low to the ground, Which is fine for me being all of a 130 pounds, But I would not trust this chair to hold more than a 150 or a 160 pounds.

We just returned from a 4-day backpacking trip using the Moon Lence 4th-gen chair. Weighing in at 2.8 lbs (as I weighed it, including the bag), the chair is not the lightest out there (not the heaviest either) but the tradeoff is a more comfortable chair, and definitely sturdier. You can buy a high-end chair that weighs just 1 pound and costs 3 1/2 times as much, but you trade the lighter weight for a wobbly chair which feels like it is about to break under my 210 lbs (I've sat in a friend's, so I know). The 4th-gen Moon Lence fits me well and I didn't notice the extra weight (I'm not going for lightweight backpacking). Actually, the extra weight is equivalent to less than a liter of water, and we were in an area with frequent water to filter, so it was no problem to just carry a little less water. We also bought my wife the iClimb chair and I found the Moon Lence 4th-gen to be more comfortable (its back supports are slightly wider, and my shoulders fit better; the iClimb's back supports cut into the back of my shoulders). The chair sets up and breaks down quickly and makes backpacking in areas with no place to sit except for on the ground or on a downed log MUCH more enjoyable. I highly recommend the Moon Lence 4th-gen chair.

Light and flimsy, but I knew that going in. Small like I wanted it, easy to assemble and take apart. Most importantly it fits back in the bag. Don’t abuse it and it should be fine.

I am a 6 foot 5 inch 320 lbs man. I put this chair together quick and easily. It did support my weight without giving. But, it is very small. The chair back barely rises to my lower back. The seat is roughly 8 inches or so off the ground. My 5'7" wife, approximately 135 lbs had no problem with the height or size of the chair. So if you are taller than maybe 5'9" this chair would be very uncomfortable to sit in. Despite the weight capacity (apparently accurate) this not the chair for tall or robust built people. It is extremely easy to assemble.

LOVE THESE!! We had an idea to bring these on our cruise for a portable chair on the beaches and what a great idea. These chairs are very comfy and easy to set up and put away. We probably spend about 2 minutes for both set up and tear down. I thought that maybe the legs would sink into the sand on the beach, but it did not. They sank about maybe an inch ish into the sand, but we did not have issues with that. Obviously the heavier a person is the more the chair will sink into the sand. We also camp a lot so we will be using these for our next camp trip to lighten the load a little from traditional lawn chairs. They are very sturdy even when twisting around/reaching (we tested them before bringing them on the cruise). I also really like the breathable mesh as it is way cooler in hot climate.
