Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Gci packseat comes in a convenient case that can easily be shed to save even more precious grams. It comes with a handy carabiner that you can use to easily clip the chair to your pack.



Cons

The fabric on the stool tore in all 3 corners of seat after only a 3 day hiking trip with a 160 lb guy. The seat is extremely uncomfortable, and when set up it was not the 22 height stated in the specs. It's not a chair i would normally buy.

Put together cheaply. Nice and light weight but not durable. The downside is the * thing broke after an accumulated 45 minutes if use.

Packaging/appearance

Competitiveness


I tried several backpacking stools in this price range, and this was the lightest and also the tallest, making it easy to carry...  Read More
