Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for commenting
Thanks for the very thorough review. I've been looking for the right chair for some time now. I found this chair several days ago, but I had not seen a good video until this one. I have a few questions about the chair before I make the purchase. At 13.8" leg height of the chair, I am wondering if getting up out of the chair might be problematic, as I get bouts of pretty bad sciatica often. The very short backpacking chairs are out of the question. The other thing is about the foot stool. I am 6', and I read some reviews saying that it was only useful for smaller people (reviewer was 6'3"). I tend to agree with what you said about supporting the calfs would be more comfortable. I would appreciate any thoughts you might have on those 2 points.
I've been watching your channel for several years now, and always enjoy your reviews. Thanks again, Mark

Really enjoy your review. Very informative and useful. I am going to buy one to try.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for commenting
i dont know why but i havent seen any videos from you in almost a year now but i was thinking of one of your older videos and had to take a look, so glad to see you are doing well, i have a lot of videos to catch up on! keep up the great work and thanks for all the great videos over the years!

I've just ordered the Kilos high back chair 2.0 with a 10% discount and a free gift of 3m USB LED String Lights. Now I don't like arms rests and therefore this chair suits me fine and it makes it a little lighter!
Sounds good. Thanks for commenting
That is a nice chair. You brought up some good points 👏. We car camp only in the cold seasons. Our chairs have the extra padding in the back and bottom. Does help on cold nights by the fire. But for fishing, this would light weight chair wold the best.
I have a small insulated sit blanket-pad I can use in the chair that keeps me nice and warm. Thanks for commenting
Hi from Switzerland!
Great review, made me buy it. Enjoy!
Glad the video was helpful. Thanks for commenting
Great review
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting
Mark … Excellent review; great insights for us bigger guys!!! I may get one in about 109 lbs. Thanks for the great review!!! Take care, be safe, best wishes and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas, USA. 🤠👨🌾✝️🙏🖖👍👋
The size of the chair is the only drawback for some people. Thanks for commenting Chuck
Mark … You are most appreciated and more welcome!!! Chuck.
Comfort At It's Best, Both Look Like Great Pieces Of Gear, Thanks Mark ! ATB T God Bless
Right on. Thanks Terry
Thanks for your review. We purchased a couple of high-back armchairs from Kilos Gear, well- made but uncomfortable for people with wider thighs and hips.
Yes, just what I was thinking. That is why I wanted to mention it. Thanks for commenting
My camp chairs have been like Gina’s chair. Like from Walmart. The plastic grommets do get brittle and I’ve had them dig into my knees as they start to crack. I got a larger and fancier chair from Walmart that’s only available online. I like that the armrest has a cooler pouch on one side. I keep that chair in my large tent for dressing and enjoying a bug free evening and the pouch is my end table for my camp cot to have handy storage for headlamp, phone, tissue, drink, etc. I have a smaller one for the campfire or for guests
Right on. Well thought out. Thanks for commenting
It looks like a perfect fit for my husband who is your height (170 lbs). Me at only 5'2" prefer chairs without headrests because they push my head forward. I find air plane seats quite uncomfortable because they push my head forward which gives me a stiff neck. Just by looking at the two chairs side by side I know I would be more comfortable in Gina's chair, and my husband would definitely prefer the one you just demo'd. Women being more curvy than men need lumbar support. I would be removing that pillow and would put it behind my lower back.
Good point. Gina did try my chair but wants to stay with her own. She did inherit by older backpack size chair and loves that. Thanks for commenting
Good looking chair and review Mark , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks, you too!
I agree with you that it may not fit someone who weighs over 300lbs, but the 200lb me would appreciate the weight rating when one of my grandkids wants to jump in my lap. Thanks for the review. I'll have to think about this chair for a bit.
Good point. Thanks for commenting
G'day Mark, definitely looks to be well made and great points on ventilation mate !!!.
As a reasonably slender 6 footer, no probs width-wise, (but extra wiggle room always appreciated), and a high back with a head rest, all the better, though ....... it is perhaps sitting a little low for my liking, I tend to feel the front seam of the seat material cutting into the back of my thighs or knees on most camping chairs.
FYI, I have been using a 5 position Colman job car camping for around 10 years, (and I use it at home too); certainly not light weight and compact, as it's a metal alloy frame folding design, but for my stature hard to beat for the dough IMO, (currently 90 AUD). Gotta few battle scars in the form of ember burns, (yeah you get that, lol), and sure the padding aint as fluffy as brand new, but still no need to replace it yet.
Cheers Duke.
I understand what you are saying. My old Strongback chair still serves after 10 years of use and is very comfortable but it is a big heavy item compared with this chair. Thanks for commenting Duke
I know what you mean about the edge of chair hurting one's legs. I put a cushion or a folded blanket on the seat which solves that problem. I also have a back support in my drivers seat I can use for my back in if I want.
The best coat for sitting out on a cold night is one of those huge ones with hood meant for after a swim. I always bring that camping for sitting out in. Warm, wind and waterproof and super cosy.
Mark,
I love the video, always worry about scams. How was your experience ordering this product?
Mike
Hi Mike. Hard for me to answer as they sent it to me as a reviewer. Having said that, I had good communications with them. I had no fear if it being a scam. Thanks for commenting
As always a good thorough review.
I have the Kilos high back V1, not sure what the differences are but the main one I see is the amount of mesh in the V2 , personally I prefer more material than mesh, in the UK even in the summer the evenings have a chill unless we are having a heat wave.
I have down covers from another chair that make it nice and cozy when it gets cool.
High back,arm rest,compact, plus a foot rest makes this a great chair for car camping.
I have always found the standard chair like Gina has to be quite uncomfortable for my frame, my Helinox chair zero is more comfortable.
Yes, I can see the how the mesh can be too cool. Also allowing mosquitoes to bite in summer. I place a simple fleece blanket in mine to keep my back warm. Thanks for commenting
Watching this again as I have recommended this chair to my BIL and wanted to make sure I had made a good recommendation. Still using our MK1s and still very happy with them.
Sold.
I am sure you will like it. Thanks for commenting
This high back kilos appears it could work for boat camping when weight and storage room can be an issue
Right on. It would be a great choice for that. Thanks for commenting
I have a low back chair that weighs less than 2lbs and a cheap one similar to the blue chair and it weighs 10lbs
Yes, the larger chairs, my Strongback included, are made with steel frames. Thanks for commenting
Hi Mark, quite like your hat what brand and model is it? Thanks
This is my Tilley Outback. I have a video on my Tilley hats if interested. Thanks for commenting
Great video. I am 6'4" and 225. I wander if the chair would fit.
It might. Your height to weight ratio sounds right. I wear 34 to 36 inch waist pants if that helps. Lots of room for me. Thanks for commenting
So, would you say that the chair has your back?😉🙃😗 The chair looks comfy.
Oh man, I can't keep up with you😁 Thanks for commenting
That’s nice . Mine doesn’t have the arms .
They do add a lot. Thanks for commenting
This video completely fails to show how the arms are added. They are out of sight! And ours aren’t sliding on easily so back to TH-cam!

Unfortunately they want 164.00 CAD now
Ouch. That is expensive. Thanks for commenting
ooof, Aug. 2024 it's now $166 CAD before taxes. I may buy it at some point and maybe it's worth it but that price puts it at the bottom of my list of gear to get for next year unfortunately. Good review though, had me very interested until I checked the current price.
