A quick review of the Sitpack Campster 2.

Not every chair is a gadget, but this one sure is. Its lightweight, one-piece, collapsible design packs down small but still feels rock solid when sitting on uneven ground. The Campster 2 costs $110 before adding accessories like an insulated beer holster and a cozy quilted cover.

It’s tall for a camp chair, which makes it suitable for taller tables. The seat is 12 inches (30cm) off the ground, with the back measuring 28 inches (71cm) at its highest point.
