    The Edeuoey one looks exactly the same as a budget chair we can get there by Trekology, they are pretty decent.
    I have a sit pad and a budget chair, but it was from a supermarket here in the UK and only £17 included the square sink mat. Bargain!! I was planning on getting a Helinox and probably still will eventually, but this Adventureridge one I currently have has done my very proud so far.
    Great watch... thanks!

    I won the edeudey recently and I enjoyed it so far. It's a nice height, not terribly heavy (I mostly truck/car camp so weight isn't an issue), cool colors, and packs pretty small. Will be getting a couple more of them. And also, $120 for a camp chair is just crazy to me. Thanks for the video!

    Your in rocky territory unlike some of us which are in lose soil ( Sand ) and the rest. Something that has happen to me with chairs like that. Here in Florida they sink into the ground. Those little pointy legs slowly sink till you might as well be sitting on the ground. I located a mesh net that fits between the legs of the chair so when it starts to sink the net stopped it. The net is attached the same way the chairs seat is attached. The end of each leg fits into a holder at each corner of the netting. It works a lot better then using a tennis ball on the end of each leg. I gave my Edeuoey type to my grandson and keep the Helinox Zero , Big Mistake , should of been the other way around.

    • @BackpackingwithBuckley

    They are throwing so many of those chairs to channels for free, I don't know how they're keeping the price for them where it is. It's really illustrating the frustration I have with so much outdoor gear right now. Someone wants to charge $150 for a 40l backpack, and you can get one on Amazon for $25. Put them side by side and is the $150 better? Ok, but it's not 5x better. It's not even 2x better. The difference between $20 hiking pants and $100 hiking pants is another one. Those 2 camp chairs. The list goes on. I don't mind paying a little more for quality in most cases, but the price difference compared to quality difference in a lot of these cases is silly.

    • @BackpackingwithBuckley
      @BackpackingwithBuckley  2 роки тому

      It is definitely frustrating with ALL the options. I try to ship ethically and support small companies most of the time but there are times when you are shelling out a small fortune for something you can get a LOT cheaper. These chairs thankfully all have good qualities!

    I would rather lug around the extra pound for the $30 chair. there is a sub 2lb budget chair w/o carry case (not trekology) on amazon and it is not as sturdy...the helionox?!? just look at it..IMHO it's one of the biggest scams going on in the hiking/backpacking world right now. there is no new design, no new materials, just less materials using lower center of gravity for its stability (which isn't much) and I've seen youtubers break them...the budget chair you can almost just plop down on it, lean back and relax.

    • @BackpackingwithBuckley
