Wish I had seen this video before I bought my feeder chair...another great video with honest reviews. Your videos are better than the rubbish on TV lately. Hope you are not getting fed up with my comments. 😊

[@WestysAngling]

No Paul ! The comments are good they help my videos get suggested to other people on KZbin 👌🏻🎣

[@robertdavies6002]

I’ve had mine three years and it’s still going strong.👌🏻

[@WestysAngling]

Great news that mate ! Great info for everyone . They are definitely built to last 👍🏻👌🏻

[@minisam1988]

GREAT REVIEW, been looking at getting a feeder chair for a while and this looks the best value for money without compromising quality.

[@WestysAngling]

It definitely still is the best value out there !

[@BarryRift]

i bought the same chair 2 weeks ago, and i love it ! I also bought the guru feeder grips with it to be save :) The only thing i find slightly annoying is that you have to sit very still otherwise your feeder mount wil wobble and your rods move allot up and down.

[@WestysAngling]

I think they are all a bit like that ! Never mega steady unless it’s a box . But I stopped mine from doing it with the screw out foot I made as you can see in the video. 👌🏻👍🏻

[@tonyball2905]

hello westy love your channel. i have been looking at this chair on other channels and have found out that the longer arm that is threaded is for a keepnet and the feeder arm goes on a short arm hope this helps explain why its threaded. keep up the good work i too fish a lot of the places you do and i hope to bump into you on the bank sometime

[@tilenzupanic3424]

Mine finaly came. Thank you again for review!

[@WestysAngling]

No problem at all ! 👌🏻 hope it’s lasts as long as mine has !

[@lenraby5920]

I nearly bought a Caperlan chair but ended up buying the new Korum accessory chair purely because I owned other Korum kit. I did try the Caperlan and it’s very good, the feeder arm wobbles a bit but that’s same on the Korum and others when the arm attaches via the chair leg. Both very good chairs you get a lot of extras with the Caperlan and if your just starting I def buy it, yes it’s heavier than the Korum but it’s not a deal breaker unless your walking 5 miles.

[@WestysAngling]

Some great information here Len ! Thanks for commenting with it 👍🏻👌🏻

[@rockdogization]

it looks a quality chair... a nice review......i use the shakespear skp feeder chair ...another brilliant product ! tight lines guys....

[@WestysAngling]

Looks like a great Chair ! Thanks for commenting as always ☺️

Good chair buddy good honest review… cheers Chris & Sam

[@oovdylanvoo8783]

Deffo love my Caperlan chair mate never add a problem with it so wish the tray was slightly bigger 🤝 keep the content coming pal

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

They do a full side tray with hood and two legs for the csb range

[@WestysAngling]

Yes it’s a little small but you can use other manufacturers attachments I suppose. I guess they where just trying to keep the price and weight down!

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

@@WestysAngling Ive the larger one with the rain hood can see it in most of my videos

[@WestysAngling]

I have seen it buddy ! Looks great 👌🏻

[@rukinaa]

I just bought one second hand on the French marketplace equivalent, the guy was selling it for 100€ with a bunch of rods, bobbers, tackle and a bunch of other stuff. I was going to buy the chair brand new and it goes for around 115-150€. Looking forward to receiving this bundle of stuff and test it out! I'll mainly be using it for ocean fishing from rocks/cliffs so I can sit my lazy ass down instead of standing the entire session

[@WestysAngling]

😂 that’s brilliant!

[@rukinaa]

@WestysAngling Got to be smart if you're going to be lazy and comfy while enjoying some fishing! Was actually debating if I wanted to try those bite alarms as well to see what it's worth for ocean fishing, haven't really seen anyone do that, might be dumb or it might just work.. Good times with some old fashioned trial & error

[@gazwoods7026]

I live in the town centre so all the way down the canals is concrete so getting this was a no brainier westy, this yrs addition has only changed the colure on the pull nuts to illumines yellow pal, so still identical

[@WestysAngling]

Glad it’s not changed ! They are really good chairs, heavy but solid 👌🏻

[@stephenbalderson8459]

Looks just the ticket for me. I'll get one of those.

[@tilenzupanic3424]

Mine will soon be on order as my birthday is coming. I'm gonna treat myself.

[@WestysAngling]

That’s awesome! Hope yours lasts as long as mine has !

They have two in the store new one and this one

[@WestysAngling]

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

@@WestysAngling new one has a taller back more padding from what I see

[@WestysAngling]

@@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES yes it does I have just had a look 👌🏻 same attachments etc

[@Rodders1]

They also do a comfort chair which whilst yours is now £109.99 with all the goodies, the comfort chair is £149.99 without the goodies but with the ability to adjust the chair back. Do you find that the chair back angle is ok or if you’d had the option at the time to go with the comfort one would you have forgone the goodies in favour of the back adjustment?

[@WestysAngling]

Does it work off the rubber hand tightening system with rubber teeth, if it does I wouldn’t recommend. I have the caperlan bed chair with that adjustment and it’s failed on me !

[@nickgraney2119]

The threaded screw is also on the current model

[@WestysAngling]

Thanks Nick !

[@EvDoyle1]

What a coincidence just as i ordered myself a new chair 😂but as always great vid keep it up 🎣 👍

[@WestysAngling]

Haha what did you go for ?

[@EvDoyle1]

Nabbed a brand new matrix chair and it was only 90 so a no brainer

[@WestysAngling]

Boom! I do like the look of the Matrix ones.

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

Just got this and decathlon is french so yes local tackle store

[@antonystorey1544]

Just wondering, can the feeder arm on this chair be put on the opposite side? For example I am left-handed and prefer my feeder arm and rods to be on the left side of me rather than the right.

[@WestysAngling]

Yes 👍🏻👌🏻

[@antonystorey1544]

[@paulbryan1094]

Great chair. Can I ask what bag that is please. I’m looking for a roving bag that can take a few bait boxes.

[@WestysAngling]

The big one the chair went in ? I think it’s just a big ESP hold-all Paul ! The rucksack I use is a greys prodigy tackle base. I rate it 👌🏻

[@paulbryan1094]

@@WestysAngling cheers for that. I’ll check one out. I’ve been using a 5:11 Rush rucksack. Awesome piece of kit.

[@scottsam7020]

Do you use an umbrella attachment, wish there was one like fhe rest arm you use that just clips in

[@WestysAngling]

I know they can be a bit of a pain ! I have found a narrow one that I put on the table leg part , it does the job but not in windy conditions!

[@scottsam7020]

@@WestysAngling do you have the make?

[@nickgraney2119]

Just purchased one myself now. Could i ask how you do your brolly with the chair or do you not attach it? Just purchased a straight back finshing unbrella whixh is a significant uograde to my keenets Argos nunber fron 20 years ago. Cheers

[@WestysAngling]

You can get brolly arms that will fit on the legs but it’s not very sturdy. I use a brolly spike then peg it down at the back 👌🏻

[@BN22955]

Hi mate brill video ! Just wondering can you swap the feeder arm and the table to the other sides? Or is it just like that? Cheers

[@WestysAngling]

Yes I think you can😊 it’s quite modular

[@BN22955]

Thanks mate, I just looked at the photo of it all taken apart and looks like it too, cheers for you help!

[@nickgraney2119]

Hi. Do you still use this chair regularly? I had a look at one in store, and my initial thoughts were that it wasnt as comfortable as it looked? Is yours the current version? Would be good to know your thought's as im torn between this, a Korum, Preston inception chair, or althe maver mv-r.

[@WestysAngling]

Hi Nick ! Yes it’s still going I use it regularly. It’s now not current model they changed the colour slightly, it’s very comfortable and a lot cheaper than the others on your list. For me it would be that or the Korum 🎣

[@azdidodido4122]

Great modifications! Where can i find the back arm from 2:30min? For Preston gripper but rests?

[@WestysAngling]

‘Maver double arm’ a few different companies make them though 👌🏻🎣

I've got this feeder chair, did you know the ends of all the attachments and the spirit level unscrew and they are all threaded so you can use anything , the one with the brolly on the tray side comes out for a brolly to fit , cheers westy lad

[@WestysAngling]

I did mate yes ! Really modular chair 🎣

[@jimoconnell7483]

What bracket should I get to hold my umbrella to my Decathlon chair

[@WestysAngling]

They should all universally fit Jim ! But most will only fit on the table leg because of the width ! And it’s none to stable without being tied to the chair 👍🏻👌🏻
