Thread: Overland Setup - Camp chairs, saving weight, space and multi use

Those types don't have the long term support or strength. When I traveled I just bought a longer lasting chair, might have weighed more but it never collapsed in the middle of nowhere.

I have used the genuine Helinox chairs for years in a combination of remote sea kayaking and 4WDing. They've held up excellently without any problems. Also use the little Helinox table which is a nice luxury in our midget 90.

Double Triple Quadruple purpose. seats Elegant. Stylish. Pure Design Art. Ingenious. Waterproof. Rotproof. Possumproof.

Tested to destruction by Sir Russell Coight during his Camel Trophy - All Aussie Adventure (with actual live camels by mistake). (Nah, not really, just kidding, but it sounds like the sort of stuff up he would do).

Three of these fit perfectly in the center space of my loadspace. And you can stand on them to load the roof rack.

Have you tried this type of chair? yeah I brought the cheaper version first up my I'm convinced the helinox will stand up to ours travels......testing them this weekend and will report back.

Space is what we are chasing as we will be living in our defender. No roof rack capacity and when it's foul weather for weeks on end in Europe we are chasing as much space as possible inside.

Also it's nice to have a chair after a long day hiking.......so chasing a dual purpose chair

Plan to purchase the tale.

We are friends with a couple who've used Mountain Designs copy of Helinox with no issues for some time. We've all just brought the Aldi copy's- they seem better than Mountain Design. For $30 there's not a lot to complain about👍🏻
