My selection of best camping chairs with coolers

The chairs in the list below are ordered by weight from lighter to heavier:

There are two main types here, one type folds into a compact and elongated tube, and the other remain large in two dimensions but becomes very thin.


1. Kijaro Coast Folding Beach Sling Chair with Cooler

This chair is built with beach use in mind, but you can use it anywhere. It is very comfortable with its high backrest and its headrest where you have a detachable pillow. So you can remove it when you want to wash it.

The seat and backrest are with lots of mesh, and note that you can order this chair in at least 6 different colors. As you see, you have two soft armrests. They come with an integrated cooler on one side plus a cup holder, and on the other side you have yet another cup holder.
