Moonlite Elite Chair from Nemo; A First Look!

Today I’m taking a first look at the new Moonlite Elite chair from Nemo equipment. Lets take a look at the pro’s and con’s and compare it to my current chair of choice, the Big Agnes Skyline UL chair.

Nice review! I know I'm headed into middle age when I am really tuned into the back support part of the review haha! Thanks, GM!

I hear ya! Haha!

Dammit! You beat my video by a couple days 😂 Great review! I love my new chair!!! I was wondering why they did the frame the way they did, now I know! And yeah we got a foot of snow a couple days after “spring”…first real storm of the year which is crazy!

[@Everydaybackpacker]

Hahaha, sorry! I will try to schedule better next time. Yeah, we have a bit of an advantage with access to brand reps. Look forward to seeing your review!

Very nice chair. So many chairs to choose from out there. Something for everyone. Thanks!

[@Everydaybackpacker]

There is definitely a lot of options out there for every type of backpacker!

[@HuckOutdoors]

Tried it out at REI. Was not comfortable for me at all. Hope it works out for you.

[@Everydaybackpacker]

So far so good.

Same. I went as far as buying it. But after a little longer of a sit…the hard plastic hubs dug into my hamstrings. I returned it. The recline “feature” is about as reclined as an airplane seat.

That chair looks friggin awesome! Double duty and back adjustments are fantastic. The weight is good and price is good in comparison. Nice!

[@Everydaybackpacker]

Thanks!

Wow, that thing is amazing!

I dunno . . .it looks flimsy but you really plopped down on it and it held . The ground net is supposed to work like a snowshoe ? Not convinced but who knows . Time will tell on this one .

[@Everydaybackpacker]

It’s definitely a lot sturdier than it looks. One of the sturdier UL seats I have seen. But yes, time will tell.

[@BackcountryExposure]

I like it, but I don’t love it…

[@Everydaybackpacker]

I could definitely see that. I do wish it was a little taller.
