Overall, this chair is recommended if you’re seriously watching the pennies, but we would advise to spend a little more if budget allows. The bag has a decent carry strap and really looks the business in black, with natty orange beading around the perimeter of the chair and bag. However, what will undoubtedly catch your eye is the amazing sun shade included which clips nicely on to the back of the chair and helps prevent sunburn.

With a padded neck rest and integrated drink’s holder also included, it’s just the ticket to chill at the campsite. In this case there are three poles emanating from the rear two feet rather than the usual two – this provides greater stability than usual. This Coleman chair is excellent value for money, and with the added side table, you can relax to your heart's content.The standard Firenze is one of the Camping and Caravan Club’s top recommendations, and the luxury version takes that a step further with nicer materials, more padding and a bit more space to flop down.

The KingCamp Padded Director’s Chair continues that tradition and offers some nice little extras which raise it on to the winner’s podium of folding camping chairs.

The feet are worth mentioning too – a bit like snow shoes, the Kingcamp uses enlarged feet which don’t sink as easily into muddy ground – an important consideration in the UK! One of our new faves is the Vango Thor folding chair – a great chair from a great company who stand by their warranties and have been around for what seems like Thorever! It is literally small enough to carry in your rucksack on an all-day hike and create looks of evil from your companions when you stop for lunch.By lifting up the two arm rests, you can lean back in the chair to an almost horizontal position, and then lock the armrests back down to fix the chair at that angle. We highly recommend the Zempire Roco Lounger Chair for your camping excursions if you appreciate a great design and not-so-common look to your campsite furniture. The chair consists of a good quality fabric back and seat which is permanently connected to a collapsible set of legs. Kingcamp are a fairly new camping equipment company, but we have found that they consistently offer decent value with sturdy and comfortable gear. We would say the Orson is the one to go for, but if you have good feedback on some of the other brands then please let us know.
