ooh... Do we get a discount?
That Kokoda one looks comfy but I assume the king goanna is the one most go for?
I've seen Kampa etc do high back and similar looking chairs for around £40 so anyone with experience of both types able to give any feedback?

If you come to any of the outdoor shows that we are at you can try the full Oztent range of furniture.
It is quite amusing that at shows it can be visitors to our stand which sells the chairs for us
The Oztent range is to best of my knowledge the only range which is rated at 150 kg.
A couple of points to consider, if you push down on the chair arms to stand up due to drink/leg injury/arthritis etc you are better off with a solid arm chair rather then a soft arm one. It is a good idea to try the chairs out first as not all chairs are right for different peoples bodies (different weights, trunk to leg ratio etc) so trying them out is a good idea
When setting the chairs up ensure it is on level ground and do not rock back onto the two rear legs. As a kid I got my ears clipped for rocking back on to the back legs Uneven ground/rocking back on chair tends to kill camping chairs
I use a King Kakoda chair down at the unit as a 'working' chair. One problem I have noticed is that it tends to slip backwards as I stand up as I push down on the arms, but that is due to the smooth painted concrete floor and is not a fault of the chair.

For the posh caravan chairs I would highly recommend the Isabelle comfort chairs
