Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool Lightweight Yet More Sturdy with Load Capacity 400lbs Portable Collapsible Stool for Camping Fishing Hiking BBQ (Black)

This is a great little stool, I’ve used it several times already, one place that has been, is where I pickup my medicine there is always a long line on. I had a gentleman ask me all about it because he wanted one also, they are so convenient to carry with the shoulder or hand straps, I use a cane and an oxygen tank so I use the shoulder strap, and it’s so easy to open (if you remember to push in on it before twisting it open), not that I have ever done that:) very light weight and easy to move forward in line with along with being comfortable and sturdy, as I am 230 lbs, and they claim it’s good up to 400 lbs, at my weight it is very sturdy. And, oh yes again you must remember to pull on it before trying to close back up or you’ll be frustrated because these are the safety locks to keep it from collapsing while using it.

I use this for training classes, and USPSA matches. With this I can sit down to load mags, and it quickly folds up, takes up very little space, is very sturdy, and is inexpensive. I'm only using it for a couple minutes each stage of a match, but it's very convenient.

I recently picked up the Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool specifically for my fishing adventures, thinking it would be the perfect lightweight and portable seating solution for both boat trips and jetty fishing. Overall, I'm quite pleased with its core functionality, though there are a few things potential buyers should keep in mind, echoing some experiences I've seen from others. The first thing that impressed me was just how lightweight and portable this stool truly is. Collapsing down to a mere 2.5 inches, it easily slips into my tackle bag or can be comfortably carried using the integrated nylon-web handle or the handy, storable shoulder strap. This makes it an absolute winner for anyone who prioritizes packability for activities like camping, hiking, or, in my case, fishing and BBQing. Setting it up is generally easy and quick. The "accordion" style opening using the finger holes is intuitive, and I appreciate the slight twist that locks it securely at the desired height. Being able to adjust it to intermediate heights is a nice feature, offering flexibility beyond the standard full extension of about 17.75 inches, which is a comfortable sitting height for me. The nearly 10-inch diameter seat feels perfectly adequate for my needs and doesn't feel restrictive. The advertised 400lbs load capacity gives me a significant sense of security, especially when using it on a boat where balance can sometimes be a factor. It certainly appears to be sturdily made and, as advertised, it does feel more robust than some other lightweight folding stools I've seen. The availability in a wide variety of colors is also a nice touch. However, mirroring some feedback from other users, the durability does seem to be a point to monitor. While it feels solid initially, some have reported issues with it falling apart upon breaking. I haven't encountered this myself yet, but it's a concern I'll definitely keep in mind with continued use. The ease of opening and closing is also something where experiences seem to vary. Personally, I found the accordion mechanism and the twist-to-lock system relatively straightforward to operate after a couple of tries. However, I can see how some might find it a bit fiddly at first, so be prepared for a potential learning curve. Finally, the manufacturer's explicit warning about avoiding use on sloping ground is crucial. For my purposes on relatively flat boat decks and jetties, this isn't a major concern. However, if you intend to use this for hiking or in areas with uneven terrain, definitely heed their advice to test the stability carefully before fully sitting down. For my primary use of fishing (on both the boat and jetty), the Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool has proven to be a surprisingly useful and convenient addition to my gear. The portability and ease of setup are fantastic, and the high weight capacity offers peace of mind. Just be mindful of the potential durability concerns highlighted by some users and the limitations regarding uneven surfaces. I'd recommend this to others looking for a lightweight and portable seating solution for various outdoor activities, but advise them to handle it with reasonable care to maximize its lifespan.

Sturdy and lightweight, but sometimes tricky to deploy. The strap is hard to adjust, and after about 10 months the clasp broke while opening it at a parade. Still, it’s super portable, easy to carry, and great for festivals, parades, and outdoor activities.

LOVE this stool. So handy and I love the adjustability. Collapses easily for on the go or for storage. Fits in a saddlebag on motorcycle and light enough to carry along on a fishing trip!

Very surprised with this. Seems to be sturdy. Easy to open and close. It is a little heavier than I expected. But no heavier then most women’s purses.

Love this stool. Light weight, easy to open and close. Sturdy. Physical can't stand for long. Gives me tge freedom to get out and if I need to sit , I can.

It’s such a useful item to have. I don’t use it for camping, but it’s nice when you’re gardening or you need to be outside and you don’t have anywhere to sit. I got the hot pink color and I love it. I find it to be fairly sturdy. Of course if it’s uneven ground, you have to be careful, but that’s with everything on uneven ground. It’s convenient to carry around, however opening it up and getting it to the right height can be a little finicky at times. I found it fairly comfortable to sit on. For reference I’m about 5 feet tall and 110 pounds, so I can’t speak to someone of a larger body overall I’m glad I bought it. It’s not something that I use every day or even every week but when I need it, it’s so incredibly helpful.
