They're designed for heavy and physically large people ..

( I had a duralite,sold it ,compared to Helinox ,onetigress and many other generics they are inferior believe me )...thats the issue ,some peeps just look at them at face value a big mistake )

Mine ,fits IN ,my old esp rucksack ,I don't go anywhere without it ,it's brilliant as a bivvy chair ,camping chair ,coarse fishing seat etc ,if they were no good it'd be long gone ,each piece of kit I use is thoroughly thought about and researched..

Didn't know they held so much weight. Always thought they were for skinny sorts only.

Look ideal for living in the boot as well as fishing.

I've tried loads of other 'light' chairs and always gone back to my duralite for lightness, flat packdown and ease of carrying so will be interested to know if the Korum is better

You can do one of several things to alleviate that problem

1,buy the ball feet that fit on the rubber ended legs

2,make yr own mud feet for pennies..out of practice golf balls

3 ,make 4 round feet out of rubber car mats

4, Helinox do a special non sink mat thing that works really well..

( I have the proper ball feet ,I doubt I'll never buy a carp chair again,these are FAR ,superior in anyway shape or form ,to Nash,Fox,Avid JRC )

If you want small,and a chair that's got a backrest, these are yr only alternative, other than a John Wilson type stool ,and those are very uncomfortable,..

Nash, not a chance. To much of their stuff snap.
Jrc I'll go look at.
Just found a korum light weight so that might be a solution

Think they might sink into the soft ground. I need something with a wide mud foot

I think my chair is called the Nash Indulgence Lightweight. It's about 3.5kg, has a concealed carry strap and is plenty comfortable enough for me on day sessions. The other one I liked the look of was by JRC, but I can't remember what it was called.

I sold my duralite ,as it was 3x times heavier than a Helinox chair one or chair one xl ,both of which have an upright sitting position, easy to get out ,or up from ..

Ngt do a generic version of that Chair one by helinox ..These type of chairs hold a man's weight very easily ..and they'll pack down really small ,I actually wear my chair around my kneck or put it in my rucksack ..

Looking for a chair with a bit of height. Don't want to be low down to the floor like I am with the fox duralite.
Needs to be light as it's hand luggage, can't use a barrow due to fences.
