Tired of sitting on your hard cooler at camp? The clever, comfortable, and compact Helinox Chair Zero revolutionized backpacking, and it's 20% off at REI right now while stocks last
Grab this lightweight camping chair in regular and high back models at a nice discount right now

When Helinox issued the Chair Zero back in 2017, it changed everyone's expectations of what a camping chair could do. A comfortable seat that you can attach to a backpack and take on lightweight adventures? Yes please.
Right now, you can pick up the Helinox Chair Zero for just $111.7s at REI. That's a healthy 20% off the list price for this innovative camping chair that packs down to the width of a standard 32oz water bottle and weighs just a single pound.
And if you want a little more support? You can make the same savings on the Helinox Chair Zero High Back, which is down to only $143.73 at REI. The High Back version takes everything that makes the original Chair Zero great – ultralight portability – and adds more support for your neck and shoulders. That means you can still pack this chair down to the size of a water bottle (yes, really) and strap it to your backpack or stash it in the trunk of your car, and properly kick back around the campfire at night. From where we're sitting, all that's missing is a cup holder.
This deal applies to the White colorway in both models, so as long as you don't mind the odd stain, it's a super deal on one of the most popular camping chairs out there. The models have been discontinued as Helinox is in the process of upgrading the design, so we suggest you move has if you don't want to spend the rest of summer sitting on your cooler.
