Ozark Trail XXL Director Chair Review & Buying Guide 2024

There are also built-in rack mounts, a kickstand mount and non-Boost 135mm quick-release-style dropouts. Interestingly, the frame’s stays are robust looking right up until they connect to the comparatively spindly looking dropouts, which also bow in a touch. It would not surprise us one bit if there is a Boost thru-axle version of this frame out in the world somewhere.

The cup holder was a bonus and would fit the majority of standard water bottles, cans and thermos flasks. There is no additional storage or a second cup holder but for the low price point, I wouldn’t have expected that nor is it needed. We ranked Value for Money as a 5 as this really is exceptional value considering the the build and comfort of the chair.

If you’re looking for something more subdued, that might be a little off-putting. We don’t regard any of these as outright deal-breakers, and at least where the storage issue is concerned, there’s an easy DIY fix. It’s the lightest, most portable chair that is still comfortable. The Helinox Chair One weighs about 2 ozark trail chair pounds, compresses smaller than a 2-liter bottle of soda, and is our most lightweight pick.

The 4-pound, steel-framed REI chair has an attached carry strap, rather than a carry bag (which the other chairs have). After a couple of camping trips, we concluded that a strap is more convenient than a bag—it’s quicker and easier for a kid to grab the chair and go, without parental help. This wider and longer set will provide support for larger adults with the same upright style as the traditional bagged camping chair. Has been rated for 300 pounds, but can hold more weight comfortably. Double cup holders are also extra large to hold bigger drinks. These Ozark Trail camping chairs are perfect to take with you to kids’ sports games, camping trips, or to simply have them around so you can lounge in your backyard or for guests when having cookouts.

It’s perfect for tall individuals due to the longer back and head rest panel which gives stability and ample back support to the chair. The wide seating area makes it comfortable for users of all heights and everyone can benefit from the longer back panel. One of the best features is the longer back panel which reaches up to the neck and allows for you to tip your head back and rest it on the lightly cushioned area for extra relaxation. We also found that this extra head area gave the chair a more secure feeling and gave you confidence to lean back into the chair. The chair is longer and bulkier as a result of this, but if the main use of this chair is for the garden, outdoor picnics or spending time camping, then it’s the perfect choice. Capacity ozark trail chair XXL Director chair is a bit heavy; it lacks any built-in storage and is only offered in two (bright) colors.

It can accommodate up to 350 pounds of cargo and features four all-terrain wheels that withstand mud, grass, gravel, and beyond. The wheels’ 360-degree rotation makes it easy to maneuver through narrow passageways, and the two front wheels are lockable to prevent it from rolling away. The cupholders on the L.L.Bean Kids’ Base Camp Chair aren’t as roomy as those on our picks, and they’re not as adept at holding stubby water bottles or mugs of hot chocolate. Camping chairs can also be reasonably priced, casual (albeit less comfy and less durable) alternatives to patio furniture, if you don’t mind the lack of aesthetic appeal. The Ozark Trail Camping Chair is perfect for other outdoor activities such as fishing as it gives you a decent level of comfort over extended periods.

That’s because it’s among the most durable and comfortable chairs we’ve tested. It’s large enough to accommodate a wide range of body types, and its steel frame supports up to 325 pounds. It’s sturdy build, combined with a generous weight capacity and a longer back panel for extra support, make this a solid option for all age groups as it’s simple to set up and fairly portable.

Compared with cheaper chairs of its kind (like those from Walmart), the REI Co-op chair functions better and will last much longer. The Chair One has a 600-denier polyester and mesh seat and aluminum legs, which are linked with shock cord (like what you’d find inside high-end tent poles). The Helinox Chair One is the best chair for anyone who needs a lightweight, portable chair.

It feels like a modern hardtail with trail-friendly cross-country handling. Its reach and head angle are springily confidence-inspiring right up until the trails start getting on the really steep side.

The Ozark Trail had its beginnings in the 1970s when a group of public land managers, land owners, and trail users met to discuss the concept of a long-distance hiking trail. A comprehensive state outdoor recreation plan prepared by the state of Missouri in 1975 showed a need for an addition of 500 to 900 miles (805 to 1,448 km) of hiking trails. A first meeting in 1976 at Meramec State Park lead to the first draft of the trails proposal in February 1977 and in 1981 the first sections of the trail were under construction. In the early 1900s, a Christian minister wandered into the Ozark hills, looking for better health, and found a community that would change his future. Wright camped on the very homestead you can visit today and wrote The Shepherd of the Hills based on the people he grew to love, and set in the hills that soothed his soul with their fresh, natural beauty.
