Hi guys, it's Lauren from Snowys here.
Well, for Helinox it all started
with the Chair One.
It's their original, award-winning compact chair,
perfect for motorcycle tourists,
hikers, kayakers,
you name your adventure
this is the chair for you.
Your pack dimensions are 35 high,
12 wide and about ten centimetres deep.
All in all your Chair One weighs 960 grammes,
down to 890 grammes when in use.
Let's see what we've got.
So...
in your bag you have
your chair frame and
your chair sling.
Now this awesome storage bag
also doubles up as a carry-all compartment
for underneath your chair
and I'll show you how to attach that later.
Now the awesome thing about
the Helinox chair frames,
is they're all shock corded together
and are practically self-assembled.
(frame clicks into place)
A little bit of help with
your last one or two legs,
sliding into the hubs there,
you can hear them click in.
Right, now that's the Chair One frame down.
If you are wanting to use your carry bag
as the optional storage compartment under your chair,
now's the point to pop it on.
You just simply slide these two end loops
over the arms before putting your chair sling on.
The solid base section of your chair sling
is the front component
and the legs just slip
into the sockets, like this.

The chair will be under a bit of tension,
so as you're going along,
you might have to put a bit of muscle into it,
but it's not difficult.
(chair scrapes on the floor)
That's our Chair One all set up.
Now your in use dimensions are
approximately 52 centimetres wide,
50 centimetres deep and 65 centimetres high
with a working seat height
of approximately 22 centimetres.
Now your chair sling itself
from a nylon fabric
with these breathable mesh panels in here.
On the back we have examples of Helinox's
excellent workmanship with
your extra reinforcing and bar tacking.
Along here your nylon pockets
for your sockets of your arms.
Your entire frame is made form an aluminium alloy
which cuts weight without compromising strength.
And all your hubs here, are a glass-filled nylon.
The ends of your legs have these nylon end caps.
When you're using soft ground, though,
you can get an additional footprint,
which stops them sinking in.
Now, all in all the Chair One takes
an unbelievable 145 kilos of weight,
so let's give it a test run.
It's very supportive,
it's got an excellent reclining position,
can move my arms and legs around
without losing any sort of stability.
Very comfortable and I can feel that
the actually chair itself is moulding
to the natural position of my body.
That's enough relaxing,
let's pack away our chair.
Right, now we'll flip our chair over.
We'll pop this first socket off
it will be the most difficult,
because the chair is under a fair bit of tension.
But once that's off, the rest of the sling
should come away really nicely.
We'll pop the chair sling aside,
pop the storage bag off
and then we'll disassemble our frame.
The shock cord make it really easy,
it doesn't matter what order you do that in
it should all just come together
out of its hubs really well.
Now once we've got all of our legs together,
pop it in this nice handful bunch.
We'll grab our seat sling.
(seat sling sweeps on the floor)
Fold it probably two times, I'd say,
to get it back in the bag.
Right, pop our frame on top.
And then roll it up.
The Helinox Chair One really
is their best selling chair for a reason.
It's so versatile for all kinds of adventures,
compact, lightweight, awesome.
