Looks like a good value chair, VEETWO RACING, there are a few differences that warrant a difference in price between the two brands, the type of alloy used for the poles in particular and I can't find any mention of what material is used for the hubs. Helinox are highly priced, but it really is a case of getting what you pay for. ~ Ben
They are expensive but the quality is second to none. We see lots of copies come into the market which are good value for the price, but regular users will likely end up buying the cheaper option twice. ~ Ben
Tbf, not everyone can afford the original brand on everything - for some ppl, it's not a matter of priorities; if they can't buy a knockoff, they simply can't afford the item at all. "Buy once, cry once" only applies when a person has _the option_ to pay for the expensive option. But for my part (I know no-one was addressing me, but it's relevant to the conversation [&also to clarify my manners]), tbc, when I suggested that OP wait for the design to become more widespread, I did intend that they should wait for Snowys themselves to stock a cheaper-but-still-reliable brand like maybe Oztrail or Coleman, rather than something brandless off AliExpress.

I love my Helinox Chair One, it’s fantastic.
I have two Helinox Sunset chairs for camping and can't fault them. The two chairs pack up and weigh less than a regular quad fold camp chair. ~ Ben
Nice work Ben
Thanks Maccas 44. ~ Ben
Now that's a glamping chair. Very flash that one.
Yeah, perfect for the glamping market. ~ Ben
I use the Rocky Creek kalahari same quality etc etc as helinox but cheaper

@@SnowysOutdoors Rocky Creek always been good quality gear there in par with the helinox just $ difference
Got so excited... then I saw the price and was like WTF?
Helinox is outdoor Gucci. Give it a few months and there'll be loads of more affordable knockoffs (tho you won't have label prestige).

Yep, buy cheap, buy it twice.
