For minimalist packers who want to travel extra light, the Big Agnes Skyline UL Stool offers a comfy seat wherever you go.By evaluating comfort, size, weight, stability, and ease of use, we feel confident that you now have the information you need to select the best chair for you. However, the weight, size, and ease of set up and take down really make this a great option if you are limited on space and weight. This camping chair is a perfect companion for extended trekking tours and other trips, where keeping the weight of your baggage to a minimum is essential. Ultralight nylon 70d Robic™ with nylon 66 rip-stop for extra tear strength – seriously get your hands on this stuff and you’ll feel how strong it is, particularly at the pole inserts.

This chair has a unique bent leg design that creates a wider base and seat while keeping the packed profile slim. Because it's a narrow bag, it can be a little tight getting the zipper up if the rigid pole pockets on the fabric are taking up more space at the top end of the stuff sack. We also found that the space-saving hubless pole design takes slightly more time to assemble than the hubbed pole models, but only by around 10 seconds, so we're splitting hairs here. If you're looking to make an investment in a quality piece of gear that you'll find countless uses for, this is an excellent choice and holds high value. The Skyline UL is made for those looking to kick back after a day on the trail and soak in the view without the weight penalty of heavier camp chairs.We knock a few points off the score in this metric because, while excellent in regards to stability and reduced pack size, the hubless poles take a little extra care to assemble. For this metric, we evaluated the myriad ways chairs can be more or less comfortable and used these characteristics to rate each product against each other.
