Though it’s one of the least expensive chairs we tested, we’re still not sure it’s worth it. Lackluster performance and a cooler that’s only moderately useful but surprisingly in the way make us feel like there are much better options out there, even if the chair and cooler have to be separate. The Ozark Trail Oversized Mesh Chair from Walmart, although similar to our pick in size, was far less comfortable, with rough-feeling material that coleman cooler was obviously of lower quality. We later found, after six months of frequent use, that the stitching along one arm had come unravelled and that the small straps holding up the back of the armrests had both ripped in half. This low-profile chair is easy to carry, and it adjusts for uneven ground. The Renetto’s big, heavy canopy provides ample sun protection at a campsite or cookout and doubles as a backpack-strap-equipped carrying case.
Despite its larger capacity, our testers found it to be super easy to set up and noted that the loveseat is very generously sized so that two people don’t feel crowded at all. Because of its lightweight construction, this chair is only rated for 265 pounds, which might make it less useful than some of our other picks. However, if the size is your biggest concern, this was the most comfortable, durable lightweight option we tested. There are some people for whom camping is simply the perfect backdrop for drinking. We understand those people, and for them, we recommend this with a built-in cooler that keeps your backup drinks very close and very cold for hours.
Select a chair with a built-in canopy, which will give you a little patch of cool at any campsite or cookout.

The cooler is also easy to use, with a handy pull-on top that unzips both sides simultaneously. A small patch of velcro is all that’s left between you and your cold beverages. The cooler in the armrest sticks out at an odd angle and resists being squeezed back into a sack that’s barely large enough to hold it.
