I just received the chair a few days ago and used it for the first time yesterday.
First impression out of the box was yeah it’s small and light especially for a chair claiming 300lb capacity.
I am about 6 foot 5 and 265 lb so I’m hoping they are solid on their weight claims and durability. I’m a big farm boy ex football player type so I need things that are durable. I also love to camp so I like things that are portable and don’t have to fiddle with to much to setup. This thing fits the bill.
I glanced over the instructions - easy enough, 5 second setup is a big No. I’m sure some nerd with the design team calculated and spent several days doing it over and over to pull it off but you know, unless you popped the button and it assembled itself that isn’t gonna happen for us mere mortals.
Pretty inconsequential though, because I still had it together the first time in probably a minute or so as I figured it out. no crazy pushing, pulling or stretching and fiddling with trying to get things in holes. Next time probably take me 15 seconds honestly now that I see how it works.
Just check out the assembly instructions it’s super easy once you check those out and make sure you pull out ALL of the extensions on each of the upper arms of the seat frame.
My main purpose for this was to run home from work grab my boy and a chair, run to football practice and not have to spend 10 minutes pushing and pulling on a chair to get it setup. To hot at this point in the summer and no patience after work.
I popped it open in about a minute next to the boys water bottle dump site and parked my butt in it and was a nice and comfortable sort of reclined position, similar to my other portable chairs I have only i didn’t break a sweat setting it up. it was simple, quick and perfectly comfortable.
2 hour practice with probably at least a 1 hour stretch in the chair and never felt the need to even really adjust. I have a big frame so I won’t say I had lots of room cause it was snug, obviously, since I am at its absolute design limits but It was still totally comfy for me.
Take note though, This isn’t a sit by the fire for 5 hours and fall asleep kind of chair, it will strain your neck over time. Same as any other portable design like this. But for a couple hours for it’s portability and ease to setup - fantastic. Best one I have tried to this point for ease of setup and really compact design and comfort.
Is it easy to setup - yes!!!
Is it light - yes, even at 3.5 -4 lbs my other similar chairs weigh more.
Take it camping, absolutely. Understand what kind of camping you want to do. Yuppy camping, no doubt. Backpack under a couple miles and setup an extended camp, yeah I would take it.
Football practice, cookouts, the park with the kids - absolutely. Setup time and effort to do so are fantastic.
I really hope this holds up - I found several reviews where the legs break off after I bought it. I hope those flaws are fixed at this point or the warranty should at least be stellar at this price.
Cons:
it is REALLY expensive - about twice as expensive as my other fairly high end versions of this design at about $100 per chair at the time of my purchase.
I have very high expectations for durability at this price point so I really hope they deliver because in my opinion they nailed exactly what I was looking for. At this price point though it is definitely a luxury item. Hopefully it holds up and the price can come down as people catch on and the quality is as high as it should be.
I would love to buy one each for the rest of my family but price won’t let me be going there. Nothing to do with cliq, they do what they gotta do to be profitable but if ya got the cash to buy it, after 1 day of using it - buy it. Functionally it’s awesome, durability we’ll have to see.
Update
I have used the chair about 10 times now. Up to 2 - 2 1/2 hours of sitting time at practice or games.
LOVE the design, compactness and lightweight simplicity. I can set this thing up in 30 seconds or less now and it is effortless.
Fits in my small backpack and it’s really quite awesome.
Sitting in it, for me, as I suspected, starts reaching its comfort limits at around 2 -3 hours due to kneck and shoulder strain. I just get up and stretch it out a bit and I’m good.
But I am a big guy, and at this chairs limits in design as stated earlier being 6’5 and 265-270
I still desperately hope it will hold up. As with all of these chair types I hope the pressure points in the fabric seat do not rip out.
All in all I love this thing
I can pull it out, release the Velcro strap and flip it with one hand to get it into setup mode.
A few quick pulls on the arms and click, click, click and I’m sitting.
I love compact efficient and most importantly functional gadgets. This one is legit and great engineering.
Not gonna lie, I love watching the peoples faces when I whip this out and can slap it together in seconds and I think they expect it will just collapse under my weight and it doesn’t and they go whoa.
So far I’m still putting it in the best , most compact and easiest setup chair ever category.
