Where it makes sense
The Chair One (re) suits campers who want a real framed seat without allocating a long folding-chair bundle in the car. Its compact case can fit into gaps between larger gear, and the side pocket gives a predictable home to a small item during an evening outside. The published packed weight is substantially lower than a steel camp chair, although backpackers should still decide whether a chair earns space in their load. The suspended seat makes individual fit especially important. Compare a complete, occupied chair with a comfortable seat at home rather than treating overall frame height as sitting height.
The tradeoff
Requires frame-and-seat assembly; fit and seated height should be checked in person
