Compact camping chair that mounts to roof rack systems
Last reviewed: April 2026
At a glance
Why this product
At 7.7 lbs, this is a compact camping chair that mounts directly to your Slimline II rack — always there when you need it, never taking up cargo space. It expands to a surprisingly comfortable full-size seat. The downside? It only works with Front Runner racks, so if you ever switch platforms, this chair becomes an awkward standalone.
