Good review and comparison of both chairs. i think i would lean to the REI chair as well. The stability sounds about right. Nate

Looking at the designs, could you swap the legs on the rei to be the same as the helinox?

[@BlackFlagSummitClub]

No, the chair portion is made to go with the specific leg designs for each chair.

I tried the chair zero at rei this weekend and it feels like it would break, is there any durability issues with either?

[@BlackFlagSummitClub]

Not so far. One of us ones one and another of us owns the other and they are both still going strong. We’ve used the helinox in freezing weather as well. Have not used the REI chair in freezing weather yet.
