I currently use some of those cheapy fold up and stuff in the bag chairs and they aren't very comfortable. I want to get some new ones that I can sit in for more then 20 minutes without my legs falling asleep. Does anyone have some chairs that they have and they like. Price isn't so much as issue if they are comfortable. They do need to fold up to store in the basement of my rv too.
Anyone have any camping chair recommendations?

My husband has the REI comforter lounger that he fell asleep in the first time he used it. Here's the link http://www.rei.com/product/765273. I know you will get lots of advice on this topic.

ChefAnton, I hope I'm wrong on this and this is just my opinion. I'm convinced there are no good camping chairs or recliners. I purchased 2 Lafuma folding chairs with padded clothed bottom and back. I paid about $ 80.00 each. They were the cat's meow the first year. The second year they showed a little wear. The third year they had a fair amount of rust. The forth year they were an embarassment ! Patti & I do a fair amount of ocean camping so rust is a concern. Trying to find an aluminum frame has proven to be an impossibility. I would even settle for a quality powder coat finish... but it too is elusive. I would gladly pay the extra $ if I got the extra... but like many of todays dealings, it's easier to find a pair of chicken lips. Buy what you want because in a few years it will be junk. Unless of course, you only use them twice a year for 5 days each time 
. If any of you folks use your stuff often (in full sun) and it last please share the brand, I won't curse you if it fails in 4 years. I believe Lafuma makes the gravity recliner. I haven't tried it and it may be different from my chairs. Tom

We had the big reclining ones at camping world, but I am so short I can't get in and out of them. They are great if you plan to sit still for a few hours or a nap. I recently got these

Good luck find the right chair. I like to keep a variety and change it up as to not get uncomfortable in the same chair all the time.

Guys, I have to confess.... I went to WalMart and I bought 2 of China's best "camping chairs" to replace my $ 80.00 Lafuma's for $ 25.00 ! Don't hate me.... Please. 5 billion Chinese are counting on my cheapness... Sorry Know what else, they are comfortable with cushion and other...and when they get ugly Mr. Trashman get's em.

We don't have a Zero Gravity chair nor a recliner. We do have this Coleman RV Chair. We went through a number of chairs until we found these. And for us Big Guys this one is good.
I would like the Zero Gravity but I don't want to take up the room in my basement. If everyone would go ahead and buy one I can come by and borrow it for an afternoon.. Let me give you a suggestion.

We just purchased 2 camping chairs @ Camping World. One is a "Club Chair", paid $45 and I love it. I don't know how to describe it, but it is wonderful. The other chair is a "Wide Copper Rocker". paid $40 and hubby really likes it. We also paid $8 extra for each chair. This is for a 3-year contract. Both chairs are made by Camping World. And if there are any problems, they will replace the chair.
Check out the "Club Chair". It is very comfy. Good Luck.

Howdy, here is a link to a site that has overrun inventory.
They seem to supply most of the big retailers.
Since the chairs are overruns the availability varies.
