Despite its sleek design, the high-back version has been criticized for a flimsy frame that cracks under load and offers no better comfort than the lighter One model. Warranty support is also weaker.

In short, we love it. As Helinox proudly states on their website, it has the same DNA as Chair Zero – in the sense that it weighs next to nothing, packs down into a bag around the size of a good down jacket, and can be carried pretty much anywhere.

That's pretty comfortable. Not going to lie. What's up? This is Drummond here, and this is another Webtogs review. This time is the Helinox Chair Zero High Back. Now, starting things off, this thing is made with ripstop nylon, and it is a super lightweight material. What's more, it can support up to 120 kilos. That's 18 stone.
