The backrest is wide and very comfortable and it is also very stable and of a very good height, compared to my previous Tatoo brand folding chair. Review: OMG - I guess since this matters, like a dating profile.. I'm about 5'9 and 165 lbs. So I did not even know these existed. I was just using my old tripod stool, thinking I was "packing light." My wife bought one of these, and I was like "what is that". Dude. As light as this thing is, with a full chair you can actually sit in? The technology we have today, these are CRAZY times. Some ultralight hikers would say "a pound is too much", but man... I can tell you that after a long hike, popping one of these up and sitting down beats the CRAP out of sitting on the ground or a log. Just truly magnificent. If you can spare a pound in your pack... just get this. I do like that it seemed like it was still fairly sturdy even though it was light. I saw some other models that seemed a little wonkey to me.... There are also a couple that are LIGHTER than this, but I feel like you're paying more, and also gambling with durability at that point. The fabric material of these really feel well made and strong. The poles are also good. I read that some people complained about them breaking- I wonder if they just "plopped" down in them like a living room chair. Personally, I would treat this like you treat your tent: it's designed to be durable, but at these ultralight weights, some care and grace go a long way. Set it up, and pretend like you're always going to break it... and maybe you won't break it ;) Awesome camping purchase. ## Features - 70d Robic (Nylon Ripstop) - Made in the USA or Imported - The Champion Of Ultralight - For backpackers and campers who roll fast and light, the Skyline UL Chair weighs just over 1 lb, packs down remarkably small, and uses a patented frame for an unbeatable strength-to-weight ratio; It’s the best of all worlds - Say No To Plastic Hubs - While other chairs rely on flimsy poles and plastic hubs that wobble under your weight, Big Agnes’ patented hub-less frame is made entirely of heavy-duty aircraft aluminum; It packs smaller, weighs less, and provides a much sturdier seat that will support your weight for years of use - Revolution In Comfort - Pre-bent poles and a stronger frame allow for a deeper, wider seat than any other ultralight camping chair available; Fully shock corded, color-coded architecture makes setup easier than ever; No tools are required, and all pieces pull together in a flash - Backcountry Tough - Made with ultralight nylon ripstop for extra durability, paired with high-tenacity robic yarn that adds 25% - 30% more strength; Waterproof UTS coating withstands mountain weather; The Skyline UL Chair has a trail weight of 1lb 11oz, packed weight of 1lb 12oz, and packed size of 3.5" x 3.5" x 17" - Warranty Included - All Big Agnes products are 100% guaranteed against manufacturing or material defect; If one of our products does not perform to your satisfaction, Big Agnes will help you find gear that fits your needs ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07M9WM2DP | | Additional Features | Strength-to-weight, Waterproof | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Arm Style | Armless | | Back Style | Solid Back | | Best Sellers Rank | #78,601 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #615 in Camping Chairs | | Brand | Big Agnes | | Brand Name | Big Agnes | | Chair Backrest Width | 16 Inches | | Color | Discontinued (2024) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 242 Reviews | | Fill Material | Down | | Finish Types | Powder Coated | | Frame Material Type | Aluminium | | Furniture Base Movement | Glide | | Furniture Finish | Black | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00841487123468 | | Included Components | camp chair | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Is Customizable? | No | | Is Electric | No | | Is Foldable | Yes | | Item Depth | 38 centimeters | | Item Dimensions | 14.96 x 14.17 x 20.87 inches | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 14.96"D x 14.17"W x 20.87"H | | Item Type Name | Camp Furniture | | Item Weight | 771.8 Grams | | Leg Style | Tapered Leg | | Manufacturer | Big Agnes | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited warranty. | | Material | Aluminum , Nylon | | Material Type | Aluminum, Nylon | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 275 Pounds | | Model Name | Big Agnes Skyline Ultralight Backpacking Chair for Fast and Light Adventures, Black | | Model Number | FSULCB19 | | Number of Cup Holders | 1 | | Pattern | Solid | | Product Care Instructions | Wipe Clean | | Product Dimensions | 14.96"D x 14.17"W x 20.87"H | | Reclining Position Count | 1 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Camping | | Required Assembly | Yes | | Room Type | tent | | Seat Height | 15 Inches | | Seat Material | Plastic | | Shape | Rectangular | | Size | One Size | | Style Name | Chair (Black) | | Surface Recommendation | Hard Floor | | Tilting | No | | UPC | 841487123468 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Big Agnes - **Color:** Discontinued (2024) - **Material:** Aluminum, Nylon - **Product Dimensions:** 14.96"D x 14.17"W x 20.87"H - **Size:** One Size ## Images ![Skyline UL Chair - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81BGl4gv-8L.jpg) ![Skyline UL Chair - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81H8N53uf8L.jpg) ![Skyline UL Chair - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/915HiCq03qL.jpg) ![Skyline UL Chair - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/817rsjMypfL.jpg) ![Skyline UL Chair - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811nmN9FxBL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: do you have any chairs that wont sink in the sand at the beach?** A: Yea these are not beach chairs. But if you need a lightweight compact chair that is not only super comfortable and sturdy that you can use on any uneven surface that is not sand or mud, this is the chair. This lives in my back seat and is my go to camping, hiking chair. Highly recommend for those uses. **Q: How much does this chair weigh?** A: It weighs 1lb 11oz. Super compact and light enough to carry along on a backpacking trip or just leave in your car for a chair whenever you need it. Great for kids sporting events, impromptu picnics, and outdoor concerts. **Q: Where is it made?** A: Korea ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light, very stable, practical and easy to assemble *by J***E on March 1, 2025* The best chair for all types of outdoor activities, I usually camp and travel by bike with panniers and the weight of this chair is perfect to carry on my trips, I like that it has no plastic connections anywhere and that everything works through its tube connection system.

But age brings wisdom as well as physical challenges, and I decided trading 27 ounces for a guaranteed dry, comfortable place to sit was worth it. Researched “best” ultralite backpacking chairs and this one was the overall choice. You can get one that weighs a pound, but there are drawbacks, and I liked the features Big Agnes offered, including more stability and more width. Got it yesterday and immediately set it up. Reviews spoke of expected difficulty getting the seat stretched far enough across to seat the front legs into their (well made) sheaths. It was a bit of a struggle but you can put force on the remaining leg while pulling the fabric taut and get it seated. Chair is as advertised… roomy, stable, comfortable. I’m 5’9” and 170 lbs. get folks mY have different opinions. But I believe this is the widest of all unrelated backpacking chairs. I sleep in a hammock, which is fine for lazy sitting but no good for prepping, cooking, and eating food… and stationary, so the view never changes. This chair will be great for a variety of tasks and just relaxing after long days and hikes, as well as a small and light enough option to take on day hikes or paddles from base camp. ## Frequently Bought Together - Big Agnes Skyline UL Ultralight Backpacking Chair, Discontinued (2024) - Squeeze Water Filtration System - Therm-a-Rest Z Seat Cushion Insulated Sitting Pad --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/126582426-skyline-ul-chair](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/126582426-skyline-ul-chair) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
