When buying camping chairs wholesale it is important to consider the following factors. A camping chair is a lightweight folding chair, typically with a canvas seat and backrest. Campers will want to take size and height into consideration when shopping. Campers looking for a roomier chair should shop for bigger chairs. While a low chair is better for uneven or sandy terrain, higher chairs are easier to get in and out of. Style is another factor with options such as classic chairs, three-legged chairs, rockers, gliders and more. Overall, buyers should consider both use and style before purchasing folding camping chairs.

What types of camping chairs are there?

Surprisingly, there is a wide variety of camping chairs. The main types to consider are backpacking chairs and classic camping chairs. Backpackers know that a chair is a luxury and so size and weight are the most important factors to consider when buying a camping chair. Backpacking chairs should be extremely lightweight as they will be carried long-distance, and they should fit easily inside the pack or attach comfortably to the exterior of the backpack.

There are many styles of camping chairs, the main style being the classic camp chair with four legs, a straight back and a flat seat. They are affordable and usually high enough for the user to get up and down with ease. Low camp chairs are best at the beach or on uneven ground because they are less likely to top over. These are also ideal for outdoor concerts because they do not impede the view of concert-goers seated behind you.

Other less common styles include the rockers and gliders which are best suited for flat ground and are most enjoyed by fidgety campers. Suspended camp chairs have a more intricate design and are a bit more expensive. These chairs hang from a frame allowing the user to swing a bit. Both the three-legged and two-legged chairs are used for their utility as opposed to comfort. The three-legged camp chair is a stool with a seat and back but offers less stability than a standard four-legged chair. The two-legged camp chair, however requires the user to balance on the seat, using their feet as the front legs of the chair.
