Helinox chair One vs Zero: which one should you choose?

[@squidhead100]

I clicked this video to research which chair to buy, but it turns out that listening to this man speak is so comforting, that I’m now using it to treat anxiety.

Bahahaha

I came for the chairs but stayed (also) because of the drums of the track in the background - sound just like Slum Village - "Fall in Love"... Now, back to comparing weight and packing dimensions.

[@motorolas]

I have the Chair One and the Chair Zero. Had to warranty replace the Chair Zero frame, as one of the poles was damaged due to the fact the center pole does not pivot and thus caused one of the legs to bend. The Chair One center pole pivots and is not riveted only in one position. This is important on uneven terrain and when getting in and out and pivoting from the chair. I still take my Chair Zero on backpacking trips, as it's nearly half the weight, but if anyone wants to sit on in, I give folks a warning not to twist and turn when getting out of the chair, as the center pole rivets can break, or a leg can twist.

Awesome advice, thanks! 🙏🏻

Honestly the difference in size was night and day for me, I couldn't sit in the zero chair without feeling like I was on the verge of toppling over

[@opdgrow4life]

Dude I literally was at REI yesterday looking at all of the chairs like this and couldn't lean back in any of them without toppling over. The zero, the Nemo elite, you name it.

[@daveebert7747]

I own both and you are right on about each. I use the Zero when I am hiking or bikepacking. The One is used on canoe trips, even with some portaging the difference in weight and size is not an issue but the increased comfort is worth it.

Oops 😬 well spotted!

[@Cactus_Shep]

Love this channel. Another Stella review

[@sixpeck]

What about the Zero High-Back? Seems like a good alternative

[@BelgianHikers]

Haven’t tried the Helinox version, but I do like the form factor (esp combined with a good pillow)

[@neilmac4730]

You just did a review on two chairs that you didn't even sit on.

[@BelgianHikers]

Haha, I sat on them plenty. The question is: how do you sit in a chair, film yourself doing it, and still have the footage come out halfway interesting.

[@neilmac4730]

@@BelgianHikers True 👍

[@papaspeleo]

Dus de zero is niet zo comfortabel als de zero. Groeten

[@BelgianHikers]

Een foutje inderdaad... ik heb het gecorrigeerd in de linkerbovenhoek op 3:57, maar ik snap helemaal dat mensen dat missen.
