This is longer and narrower and can hold smaller things.īeing able to hold 800 pounds can be pretty great. The last is a mesh bag found behind the head of the chair. These are big pouches that can hold things as large as magazines. The first two can be seen hanging on either side of the armrests. This comes in the form of three pockets that can be found all over the chair. Head and side pocketsįor storage, the Alps King Kong chair comes with plenty of space to store your things, far more than normal chairs. There are two of them though so you can enjoy two drinks at a time or to hold other things you might have. These cupholders are fairly small though being short and broad, making it good for cans or small cups, but and might have a hard time holding tall and thin bottles. These holes are lined with a plastic circle and have a mesh net attached to them to hold your drinks. On either side of the frame are its armrests, a small hole has been cut into at the edges to serve as a cupholder. The height is where the chair a bit bulky, as 3 feet is pretty tall and makes it harder to tuck away. When packed up, the chair measures 4 x 4 x 36 inches. The chair can then be folded up with no assembly required and packed into it. Thankfully to help ensure this, the chair comes with a drawstring carrying bag to make carrying it easier. This means that it needs to be packed up whenever you need it. Like any good outdoor chair, the Alps King Kong chair is meant to be used on the go. While not particularly thick, it is enough that cushions you slightly when you use it. Instead, the chair has a quilted pattern design and has a little bit of padding.
This makes the seat a bit more weather resistant, though it doesn’t come with a mesh lining which affects its breathability. The King Kong Chair is made from 600D polyester which is pretty standard for these chairs. While not exactly a featherweight, it is still quite light and you should have no big problems while carrying it. In terms of its own weight, the Alps Mountaineering King Kong chair weighs around 13 pounds. This of course makes it very viable to you if you’re a bit big or if you want to sit in it with your kids.
In a market where chairs being able to hold half that weight is good, that is beyond impressive. Perhaps the most notable thing about this chair is its weight capacity which comes in at 800 pounds. Lastly, the chair comes with a set of slip pads on its legs, allowing you to use it on the inside as well as outside. This special concoction makes the chair much more resistant in outdoor conditions as well as giving it a more even and polished finish which makes the chair has a cleaner look. In this case, it is made from patented powder-coated steel. Like many other seats like it in the market, the King Kong chair comes with a solid metal frame to give it enough strength to support you and preventing the chair from breaking. If you want big and strong then this is the one to beat, I have included this very large chair in my article on the Best Heavy Duty Camping Chairs. Beyond its width, a good deal of its 38-inch height is in its back which means you also have room to lean back and rest your head while you’re using it. The seat measures 38 x 20 x 38 inches when fully assembled. This is plenty of room for you to get comfortable in. Its armrests are built in a way that they widen towards the front, so at its widest point, you have more than 24.5 inches of space.
True to its namesake movie monster, the King Kong chair is a big seat meant for big people. ALPS Mountaineering King Kong Chair Some Key Features Dimensions
