User Reviews about TravelChair Slacker Tripod Portable Chair

I bought this for work. Great to carry with you to the job site if you need a seat to wire electronics or if you need to make an impromptu laptop desk suite for programming. Very sturdy, great price. -- Perfect fit.

I wanted to switch from a cane seat to something easier to use. If you don't need a cane, the cane seats get to be a hassle to carry around. This seat is much easier to use and carry.

Likes: light, portable, easily folds & unfolds, sits stable. No bag to put it into to carry as it has it's on strap.

Dislikes: Strap is tight even out to the max..should have had a bigger strap, velcro tie strap utilizes a pass through clip to fold back on itself. This enables you to cinch down on the strap but threading the velcro through the clip each time is awkward. A simple wrap around velcro tie would have been easier. Should be able to fix this by adding a velcro patch to the back of the velcro strap.

Overall opinion: I like this chair a lot. Easy to use and easy to carry. Appears very well built. -- Nice portable seat

I have used this particular stool for more than a year now. As an adult scouter with a local boy scout troop I use the slacker on our monthly campouts. Our troop continues with the scout tradition of cooking over the campfire and in this context the stool is great. It provides support when you are working with dutch ovens and skillets on a fire grill. I took the stool with us on a recent Boundary Waters canoe trip and it was used extensively on that trip. So far the stool has held up very well, no damage noted anywhere. At 6'0 and 220 lbs I wouldn't use it to lounge next to a campfire but for utility purposes it is excellent. In my opinion it is too heavy to backpack but for general camping an asset. -- Slacker Tripod Stool
