Retailers like Walmart, Huckberry, and Dick's Sporting Goods have rolled out all kinds of Labor Day deals to offer shoppers a way to stock up for fall without breaking the bank. Outdoor enthusiasts, specifically, have something to get excited about in REI's Labor Day sale, which has dropped prices on tons of camping equipment from The North Face, Exped, and even Thule. But one of the best deals of the lot comes from REI's own house brand on an essential camp chair that's quickly becoming a bestseller.
REI Co-op's Flexlite Air Chair is on sale for $70—a rare 30% discount on its normal $100 price, which is less than the top-selling models from Helinox and Kelty. The Flexlite line of chairs has become a go-to for campers, hikers, and even backyard partiers because of their durability, comfort, and great materials. This one has already earned over 350 five-star ratings from shoppers who say it's "super light" and "compact." Three colors—gray, orange, and tan—are currently available, but the sale ends on Sept. 2, so make sure to grab one before then.
REI Co-op Flexlite Air Chair in Asphalt, $70, was $100 at REI
Designed with a four-leg aluminum frame and a water-repellent ripstop nylon fabric seat, the chair is both durable and strong. It can support an impressive 250 pounds even though it weighs just a single pound, making it portable and easy to carry whether backpacking, car camping, or heading to your kid's ballgame.
Shoppers aren't shy about their enthusiasm for the product. "The best luxury camp and backpacking item," a shopper said. "We bought two and we each carry one for hikes and backcountry backpacking. This chair has been used at camp to read by the fire in the evenings after dinner, on ridge tops for lunch with a view, and on rocky outcrops (safely away from the cliff) for sunsets and sunrises…I find this chair very comfortable and easy to get in and out of."
The REI Co-op Flexlite Air Chair is one of the best deals on camping equipment you'll find during the retailer's Labor Day sale, but it only lasts for a couple more days. Make sure to pick up your favorite color while they're $30 off.
