Moonlite Reclining Chair

The NEMO Moonlite Reclining Chair is a clever piece of engineering for the backpacker who wants versatility and genuine comfort from their camp chair. What sets it apart is the unique reclining system, which uses a cord running through channels to adjust the sitting angle. This allows you to go from an upright cooking posture to a more relaxed, laid-back position, a feature rarely seen in chairs under two pounds. It's especially suited for those longer trips where adaptability in camp comfort is appreciated. The chair uses a durable aircraft-grade aluminum frame and NEMO's custom-engineered mesh, which is surprisingly comfortable and breathable. While the setup takes a moment longer than some, due to the reclining cord system, it's not overly complicated once you get the hang of it. We found the mesh fabric to be quick-drying, a bonus in damp conditions, and it offered good body contouring. The packed size is minimal for a chair with this much functionality, easily fitting into most pack side pockets. The stability is good on most surfaces, though like any lightweight chair, avoid truly unstable ground. **Highlights** * Unique reclining system offers adjustable comfort angles. * Strong, aircraft-grade aluminum frame for durability. * Breathable, fast-drying custom-engineered mesh fabric. * Good balance of comfort, weight, and packed size. * Intuitive setup despite the added reclining feature. **Watch-outs** * Higher initial cost than many comparable chairs. * Reclining cord adjustment can take a moment to master.
