Mountainsmith Slingback chair

[FangAgainstBullet]

Anyone try one of these? Been waning to pick up a Kifaru field chair for awhile now but then came across this. Can't beat the price and weighs less than 5oz so I'm sure I'll be picking one up soon but wanted to see if anyone here had used one and if so what their thoughts on it are.

Pretty much the Kifaru field chair.

Yeah it is only difference is you use your trekking poles unlike Kifaru that has its own set of poles that are attached. at 24$ you can't beat that.

Another option that is half the weight and has its own poles QwikBack™ Ultralight Backpacking Chair | Litesmith

Logs are free and I don't have to carry them.

Those "chairs" don't look comfortable at all at any price. No thanks.

That design is really not too bad, just a pain to get it setup and not waterproof if the ground is wet. I have the original Kifaru one that I brought with me last year and used it for taking mid day naps. But when the rain came it went back in my pack.
