How to Pick a Camping Chair

Choosing the right camping chair can make all the difference in your outdoor experience, providing comfort and convenience whether you're around the campfire, at a festival, or enjoying a day at the beach. But with so many options available, how do you pick the perfect camping chair? In this guide, we’ll walk you through the key factors to consider when selecting a camping chair. For a wide selection of high-quality camping chairs, visit olproshop.com.

Our camping expert surveyed campers to find our why they bought camping chairs and to determine what's important to them.  44% of  people said comfort was their number one concern.  39% said portability was the key thing they looked for, especially when space was tight and for the remaining 17% if was down to durability. These people stated that they'd purchased a camping chair in the past and it hadn't lasted so they were only interested in buying a strong camping chair that would last.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Camping Chair

1. Comfort

Comfort is a top priority when choosing a camping chair. After a day of hiking or exploring, you'll want a chair that allows you to relax and unwind.

  • Seat and Back Support: Look for chairs with good back support and a comfortable seat. Padded seats and backrests can add an extra level of comfort.
  • Armrests: Chairs with armrests can provide additional comfort, especially if you plan to spend a lot of time sitting.

For example, the OLPRO Olympus XL Camping Chair offers both comfort and support, making it ideal for long days outdoors.

2. Portability

Portability is crucial, especially if you’re carrying your chair over long distances to your campsite or picnic spot.

  • Weight: Consider the weight of the chair. Lighter chairs are easier to carry, but you don’t want to sacrifice comfort or durability.
  • Foldability: Chairs that fold down compactly are easier to transport and store. Look for chairs that come with a carrying bag or strap for added convenience.

The OLPRO Henwick folding chair with Carry Bag is a great example of a portable and lightweight option that doesn’t compromise on comfort.

3. Durability

Durability is another important factor, especially if you plan to use your chair frequently or in various weather conditions.

  • Material: Look for chairs made from high-quality, weather-resistant materials like steel or aluminum frames and durable fabric.
  • Weight Capacity: Ensure the chair can support your weight and any additional gear you might place on it.

The OLPRO Directors Chair is designed for durability, featuring a sturdy frame and strong fabric that can withstand regular use.

4. Features

Extra features can enhance the functionality and comfort of your camping chair.

  • Cup Holders: A built-in cup holder is a handy feature, keeping your drink within easy reach.
  • Storage Pockets: Some chairs come with storage pockets for holding small items like a phone, book, or snacks.
  • Foldaway table: For maximum relaxation, consider a chair that reclines or offers multiple seating positions.

Check out the OLPRO camping chair range as all of these are covered.

5. Intended Use

Consider where and how you’ll be using your camping chair to help narrow down your choices.

  • Camping: If you’re camping, you might need a chair that’s easy to carry and durable enough for outdoor use.
  • Festivals: For festivals, portability and quick setup might be more important.
  • Beach: A beach chair should be lightweight, resistant to sand and water, and easy to clean.
