Anyone got the Solar Sofa Chair and if so is it as comfortable and lightweight as it appears please?
I've have mine for a while now , it's well-built and not too heavy and very
comfortable
Yesterday I sat in the Fox super deluxe armchair and found it even more comfortable than the Solar one.

It weighs a ton and not easy to hold/carry. But it is so very very comfy.
Ive started using a shoulder strap which makes carrying it around easier without that it normally stays at home if I'm not using a barrow.
Worth considering no air vents so if you run hot this will make you run very hot.

Its definitely not heavy at all. A bit of a funny shape to carry bit you can stuff loads into it

It's not at all heavy for the size, though as mentioned, bit of a odd shape. Personally I had issues with lumbar support so we use a pillow on ours and the front sewn seem irritated the tendons and ligaments behind my knee at first.
A longer term observation, the padding in the arms could do with being stronger near where the elbow rests, I'm starting to feel the bar now. I'm wondering if the foam is starting to collapse. A zip under the arm pad which means you could pad it a bit more for your personal preference would be a good idea.

It is a fair bit smaller than the full size one. I've got the compact one and think it's bang on.

I have had the Solar compact sofa chair for over a year now so I can tell you a few points. It is light for its size though maybe a bit bulky, but you can store things inside it! The seating material at the front sags over time to a point where you can feel the front bar on your legs. I bought a 2 inch foam cusion which solved the problem and seems to make the chair more comfortable. I have tried so many chairs and find the Solar one, despite its faults, to be the most comfortable for me with my bad back - but it is a personal thing - what suits one may not suit another! Hope this helps

The fox arm chair looks like an improvement on the solar. It has a lower bar so your legs shouldnt rest on the bar and looks like it has more padding on arms. It has proper camo pattern as well as solars id hideous.

On the Fox video it seems like the material part goes quite low when its sat in.My solar one has not done that yet and ive had it quite a while

If you look closely the bar underneath is wider with a different angle and sits lower down on the fox so better design.
