My current chair of choice is a Nash Indulgance Big Daddy chair
I originally brought it for my partner who is disabled and i thought it would be ideal for her to sit in but after a few episodes where i literally had to roll off my low chair because im getting older and my knees arent as good as they used to be so i decided to use it.
I do love it but the main problem is it weighs a ton and i dont use a barrow.So i was wondering what chairs other people would recommend that are comfortable but lighter?

Agreed. I've got the compact one, but by the sounds of it you'll be better off with the standard sized one. I concur that they are extremely comfy.

Agreed, I picked on up based on recommendation from here and really happy with it. I didn't bother with the reclining one.

Same as everyone else. Solar sofa recliner. Replaced my nash big daddy recliner so much better quality, more comfortable and a lot lighter on top. Awesome chair. Getting out not as easy

Seriously, is it difficult to get up from due to lack of chair arms ?

Snap, me too !

I had better look at something else I think to replace my rather uncomfortable Trakker Longback.

I've sat in the sofa chair and have a bad back and it didn't do anything for me.
I use the JRC stealth recliner. Super light and comfy.

I'm old, fat, have a bad back and a gammy knee and the sofa chair works 👍.

I was a bit dubious about no arms but your buried enough into the chair to push off when you have a run.

Big advantage is no cold drafts which now I'm old I feel more than I ever remember 😂😂😂

It's easier to get out of than my nash moon chair just not as easy as a normal chair. I still rate it even if I look like a fool getting out of it.

I just looked at the new Trakker Levelite Longback Recliner which, I like the look of.

£199 !! For a fishing chair !!!

Mind you, I am the silly sod that paid just shy of a Grand for the Trakker RS 150 bivvy and skull cap.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
