With Helinox chairs, you get lightweight, comfortable seating designed for every type of outdoor enthusiast. Below, you'll find a video showing the differences between each chair along with a simple breakdown of everything to help you find the perfect fit.


What's the difference between the Helinox Chairs?

 

Helinox Chair One

The original model, ideal for general outdoor activities. It's comfortable, packs small, and is great for canoeing, camping, car trips, or attending events. Suitable for average-sized users looking for versatility.


Helinox - Chair One XL

Helinox Chair One XL

This model provides extra width and comfort without increasing weight capacity compared to Chair One. Perfect if you prefer a bit more room and comfort. Note that it doesn't pack down as small as Chair One.


Helinox - Chair Zero

Helinox Chair Zero

The ultra-lightweight choice, weighing just over a pound and compact enough to fit into small spaces, is ideal for backpackers and paddlers who prioritize minimal gear weight and packability.


Helinox - Chair Zero L

Helinox Chair Zero L

Slightly larger than Chair Zero and supports an additional 55 pounds. If you're bigger framed or looking for extra stability while maintaining compactness, this chair is your best option.


Helinox - Chair Zero Highback

Helinox Chair Zero High Back

Combines lightweight and compact design with enhanced back support. Great for backpackers or paddlers who desire extra comfort without significantly sacrificing space or weight.


Helinox - Chair Two

Helinox Chair Two

Featuring a high-back design for increased comfort and support, perfect for car camping, base camping, or relaxed paddling trips. Includes a handy flap for inserting a pillow or towel for additional head support.


Helinox - Beach Chair

Helinox Beach Chair

Similar to Chair Two, this chair sits lower to the ground with flat feet, ideal for beaches or loose soil. Offers a comfortable, laid-back seating position—perfect for relaxed outdoor activities like beach days or outdoor events.


Helinox Sunset Chair

Combines the comfort of Chair Two with a higher seating position. Excellent for those who find low chairs difficult to rise from, providing traditional chair-height seating with added headrest comfort.
