Looking for a top chair

Requirements:


-Light (under 5 kg)
-Solid
-Easily transportable
-No armrests
-Spring lock legs with decent feets (don't want to damage my Frontier inner capsule groundsheet)

No brand preference, price max € 200

I regularly do 3 night sessions so it has to be a top quality build chair

I have two and i can recommend both

JRC Xlite recliner. Bought this to replace my old JRC recliner (silver frame) that I had near on 20 years, nuff said!

Around 5kg, no armrests for me either and decent comfort, large mud feet on adjustable legs. Based on the lifespan of my other chair, i am hoping similar

I have just bought a Fox Duralite chair, comes in at less than 3kg, walking nearly a mile to where i am fishing at the moment so every bit counts. Mesh seating area that is surprisingly comfortable, all of the above and what you mention below but not a recliner. impressed

Cant go wrong with either for me, the split between them is one is a recliner, the other is VERY light

I have the JRC high recliner now, dont like it.

Duralite was my first thought but I have read from a few people that the stitching is not that good.

Looking at the Aqua longback chair now.

Edit: Someone who knows if you can remove the armrests from the Trakker Levelite Long-Back Chairs?

Bought a Trakker Levelite Transformer last year, comfortable, light, doubles up as a bed buddy. Downsides are it's not a high backed chair, not a recliner and the rear legs can't be adjusted. But it's just what I wanted, and about £90.

Another vote for the transformer . . .decent size, light enough, can be carried with a strap, doubles up as a bedchair buddy that is actually comfortable but can also be used as a day chair . . .no adjustability to rear legs though and the fabric whilst nice is porous which means it swallows boilie crumb and can therefore be a mouse magnet . . .make sure you clean it / shake it after use and before storage. . .
