Lmao. Y’all are so funny.
Anyway I ordered the damn XLlounger. Man it’s nice to take nap in and stuff. But daggone it’s so heavy and cumbersome to carry Turkey hunting. Used one time it’s for sale. If I don’t sale it then I’ll take to the beach and sit in on vacation lol.
I’ll continue taking the smaller one. I just gotta becareful with it. They break easy when you weigh 275 and 6’2”

Very comfy but just like anything else there is a trade off. I havent used one in awhile for the sake of being lighter and more mobile. If you have a good ambush spot that requires time and patience you will love it!

I looked for one of those in a store when I passed a BassPro. They didn’t have any in stock. Let us know what you think of the accessory pouch.

My sons and I are big people, my boys are both 6'-3" and closer to 300 than 290. I would caution you if like us are on the bigger side to be gentile in using that design of chair. Of the four I have purchased we broke three in three years. The plastic devices that serve as the connection points for the steel rods have been the weak points that broke on us in less than an entire season of use and we weren't hard on them. Mostly they broke while were were twisting in them to the extreme eft or right.

A better option for larger 225lb+ hunters is this:


My link won't post so the chir I'm recommending is a Browning/Alps flay folding turkey chair.

We have three of them and they all have served us flawlessly for three seasons now of hard but not abusive use.
Unfortunately they are no longer to be found for the under $50 price tag I paid for them but they are IMO the best most comfortable and durable turkey chairs for big 260-300lb hunters.
I would wait until the end or nearly the end of turkey season to see if anyone has them on sale for a better price.

Something to consider.

Well this thing came in and I really like it. Of course I have 2 others, but I liked the shoulder straps on this one, the camo netting and the side pouches. I was too lazy to get up at 4:30 after working 13 hours each day for the last 3 days to try it out. Anyway, my wife was at our son's house this weekend while I worked. It was delivered while she was gone, so I thought....sweet.....she really doesn't need to be bothered with my hunting crap. We have outside security cameras, but I thought I could sneak by them without her seeing me.....wrong! She text me when I carried it in.... WHAT'S IN THE TALL BOX.....DANG....BUSTED!
UGH.... nothing honey.....well luckily she was pretty cool about it!

Cabela's has the pair of side pockets on sale for $9.97 right now. $5 shipping. It doesn't include the double shoulder sling or the camo netting but you can get some of the benefit with the pockets. I ordered that and sure wish I'd seen the thing camoman ordered before they stopped selling them. Hopefully they will become available again before next spring. I like that concept.

I'm sure they will become available again pretty soon. I haven't carried mine in the field yet, but the shoulder sling thingy is sweet. It equalizes the weight. You wouldn't believe the difference it made when I walked from my living room into the kitchen :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well, I finally got this thing out in the woods this morning for the first time. I wanted to write a review and let ya'll know what I think. Overall, I've very pleased with it and it's performance. The biggest thing for me was the shoulder straps. It made a huge difference from the single strap carry bag I have for my other ones. It balanced out the weight of the chair evenly and it didn't feel as heavy as my other ones. When setting in it, it was about a 4.2 **** out of 5. It didn't feel like the seat where the back fabric meets was as low as my older ones; therefore you may not lounge back as much, but if you don't have an older one, you wouldn't know any difference. When I'm sitting and I need to get up or reposition, I use my arms and push down on the arm rests. The old one felt a little weak, this thing was rock solid. As far as the side bags go, I loved them. I didn't wear my vest this morning, just threw a couple pot calls and strikers along with my pruners in the side pockets of the chair. Once I got the chair unfolded and situated, the pockets were placed perfectly. I sat in it for 2 hours this morning and had no problems.

In my opinion I feel it is a pretty solid chair even though I'm over the suggested weight limit. Oh and I just looked it up on the link at the top of this thread and it's on sale for $40 now.........Dang it!!!
