Been feeling a bit too exposed in your camping chair, or don’t want to be forced back inside your tent when it starts raining? Argos are now selling a camping chair with it’s own rain cover, keeping you safe from the elements inside your own little pod, and it’s gone on a half-price offer today – making it just £30 instead of £60.
While there’s very little left in the way of festivals this summer, the covered chairs could also be ideal for your next socially-distanced garden party – or even an outdoor cinema screening. I’m not saying you should trust the canopy enough to break the two-metre rule, but the chairs could mean you can carry on hanging out without retreating indoors or huddling under a gazebo.
Argos reckon that on a sunny day, the canopy provides 50+ UPF sun protection, although it’ll get pretty hot in there when the sun’s out so I’d say keep using suncream on that front.
The chair itself isn’t too far from the usual camping chairs, with a few slight upgrades to the seat and back material to make it that little bit comfier. It’s got the usual foldable metal frame and like any decent camping chair has armrests and a cup (i.e. can) holder.
If you’re fed up of losing the bag for every chair you ever buy, you might be glad to know the canopy doubles as the chair on this one, so as long as you don’t lose the canopy itself you’re good.
There’s a one-year warranty and a max weight of 113 KG. It’s probably really good to hotbox too.
The ‘Keysus Camping Canopy Chair with Rain Cover‘ is now £30, Argos’s lowest ever price, reduced from £60. Visit the Argos website to check stock in stores near you or to buy online.
