I plan to buy Inflatable Loungers for Camping (comfortable, trip, reviews)

[georgehan2019]

Hello! I plan to buy Inflatable Loungers for Camping, but it’s not clear whether this is useful or not, there are many reviews on the Internet. But I would like to hear a real review of an experienced person.

I think this thing is not durable and can easily spoil it.

I hesitate to take anything inflatable camping (except for a ThermaRest). My experience has been uniformly negative. Besides, I can't stand the squeal when you move around on the plastic.

They're OK as "toys", if you have the space and inclination. Just don't put yourself in the position of having a miserable camping trip if your inflatable deflates.

This is what I use for lounging in camp. A bit spendy, but outrageously comfortable, and will never deflate on me.

And it is PERFECT for stargazing with binoculars.

And thanks for the discount

Found a great option here Mod cut. Sable Inflatable Lounger. As they say in the review, it is very durable and resistant to punctures

We have the same one (round #2)..... trust me. It isn't that durable.

First one popped when someone was standing up and the bottom rubbed against the edge of a small, but sharp, rock.

We bought a second and it popped when it was sat on an acorn.

Now I see, thanks to everyone for the experience.

Every time I see someone with one of those inflatables on the beach, it is never a good experience.

They are constantly fighting to keep air in them.

Great theory for the beach, maybe. But camping? No way. Rocks, twigs, roots, sparks and embers from a camp fire, etc. etc. Anything inflatable has a lifespan measured in hours, not uses.

I would opt for the "collapsible nylon on a frame" type. They never leak, you don't have to get to a state of hypoxia to inflate them, and they are far more durable.

Of course you could buy a pump to avoid the hypoxia, but that was just my attempt at finding a humorous way of suggesting you buy actual chairs.

One example.
