Camping furniture and chairs

Maximum Load and Frame: The Strength of a Chair

The maximum load specified by the manufacturer indicates the sturdiness of a camping chair. The Regatta Isla II, made of polyester stretched over a steel frame, can hold up to ninety kilos while weighing around two kilos: a good compromise for the family. The Nils Camp chair, with its sixteen-millimetre steel tubes and its six-hundred-denier Oxford fabric, lined and padded, supports one hundred thirty kilos. Choose a model where the limit comfortably exceeds the user's weight, and opt for wide or non-slip feet for soft or sandy ground.

Armrests, Cup Holders, Covers: Comfort at the Camp

For long evenings at the camp, a chair with armrests makes a difference. The one from Nils Camp offers adjustable height armrests, a high backrest, and a cup holder, and packs away in its carry bag. The Regatta Isla II also features a drink holder and a storage strap, with a shoulder strap for easy carrying to the spot. The folding chair Softee Ebro and the Trespass Settle round out the choice for those wanting an easy seat to slide into the boot. A high back provides support during meals, while a low seat is better suited for the beach.

Camping Chairs for Kids

Kids deserve seats scaled to their size. The children's folding chair Regatta Isla has the same structure as the adult version but is lower and lighter, so a child can unfold and carry it themselves. The Regatta Animal sports a fun design that encourages kids to sit for meals. A low seat helps prevent falls when a child leans, and you should check that the joints don’t pose a finger pinching risk when opening. For younger ones, a wraparound backrest keeps the back more secure during long evenings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to Choose a Lightweight Camping Chair for the Bivouac?

Look at the weight and bulk when folded: the most compact models fit in a cover the size of a bottle. Their low seat and taut fabric provide less comfort than a chair, but they are easy to carry on your back.

Camping Chair or Lounge Chair: What's the Difference?

A classic camping chair offers an upright seat, which is practical for eating at a table. A lounge chair, with a reclining backrest, is better for napping and long evenings, but tends to be heavier and takes up more space in the boot.

How to Maintain a Folding Camping Chair?

Brush the fabric, wipe it down with soapy water, and let it dry unfolded before storing to prevent mould. A little dry lubricant on the joints keeps folding smooth, and you should store the chair in a dry place over winter.

Can a Camping Chair Be Used by the Side of a Sports Field?

Yes, it is even one of its favourite uses during matches and youth tournaments, on grass or at the edge of a track. A lightweight chair with a shoulder strap and cup holder is easy to carry from the parking lot to the field.

How to Store Camping Chairs in a Car?

Umbrella-style chairs fold into a cylinder and lay flat at the bottom of the boot, under bags. It's a good idea to slide them into their cover to prevent sand and dust from spreading in the vehicle.
