ARB OME BP51 camp chair unboxing and initial thoughts

Recently received two ARB OME BP51 camp chairs I purchased earlier this year. My initial reason for purchasing these chairs was comfort and practicality. However when they arrived I realized they took up a lot more space compared to my current front runner expander chairs.
This is a brief look of my initial thoughts and unboxing.

The ARB chair looks well made and comfortable but is much bulkier which if you have limited room in your vehicle could be a problem.
Nice comparison though!

Totally agree

[@adenvosloo8514]

Wow bro looks like a comfortable chair.

[@bellex.overland]

Yes absolutely 💯

I like the OME but it is to BIG for the back of my Jeep. I got 2 of the FR works good

[@bellex.overland]

Yeah I also find the FR ones are best. I can carry 4 FR chairs in the same space that takes 2 ARB chairs and still put other things in the remaining space 🤣

Great video mate, but it seems like you still preferred the Front Runner chairs..... after a couple of months now, taking into consideration of cost, weight and size.... what would you say is better chair? the Front Runner or ARB? Cheers Don, Perth WA (Dons Shed and Xplor Overland) p.s. please upgrade your microphone system for your videos, I could hardly hear you.

Much appreciated @DonsShed 🙏🏾 ☺️ 🙌. I still prefer the front runner chair, yes, and it's a personal choice. The arb bp51 is a great chair, but for my setup currently, that chair takes up too much space, and that is the primary reason for my current preference. If space was not an issue, I would always take the arb chair as it offers more comfort all round.
