camping-folding-chairYour camping-folding-chair is an important part of the stress relieving process. Once the dinner meal is completed and cleaned up and the sun has set, the campfire attracts more than just moths. Pull up your chair and prop up your feet and just relax.
The dancing flames and popping sound of exploding pitch will mesmerize you. You can't help but forget the 'office' and bond with nature. There is something so very elemental about fire. So make sure you have a good comfortable chair to enjoy it.
A good camping chair will be durable yet light in weight. Most camping chairs have aluminum frames, making them lightweight. I'm amazed at how many different styles of chairs there are. Double seats, lounge chaise, triangle shaped seats, director's style, and many more.
You'll want to look for chairs that are easy to clean. Heavy duty canvas with waterproofing spray applied will clean up in a hurry. Also look for sturdy, durable construction. Whenever possible, actually sit in the chair before buying. Cabela's, Sportsman's Warehouse or your local camping equipment store are great places to 'try before you buy'. Sit in the chair and wiggle around a bit. Check its sturdiness. Lean back a little to make sure it's balanced well and won't tip over. Pay attention to the back sides of your legs. Is there a bar digging into your legs? Is the chair seat wide enough to accommodate your expanding waist line? Once you've found the perfect chair, purchase a bottle of Scotch guard or surface protector and apply it. This will keep your chairs in great shape for a long time.
