The Stargaze Recliner Luxury Chair takes camp chairs to a whole new level. This chair reclines, swings and makes your as comfortable and relaxed as you could ask for when you're chilling out at camp.
Nemo says:
Now better than ever, our Stargaze™ reclining camp chair has been meticulously updated in the pursuit of camp comfort perfection — while maintaining all the features fans know and love. Ease of use has been improved with a strategic, more intuitive pole design that cuts down on setup steps and makes assembly a snap. Plus, the generously curved upright poles are engineered to more comfortably accommodate broad shoulders and create extra elbow room, while a larger padded headrest can extend well beyond the backrest and support users of all heights.
The swinging seat and responsive auto-recline mechanism remain the Stargaze standouts, offering a hammock-like experience with a smoothly tilting backrest. Simply lean back to take in a perfect view of the night sky or catch a moment of rest while the water’s boiling!
Designed for a low centre of gravity, the chair offers unmatched stability on surfaces from sandy beaches to rocky terrain (or even spongy soccer fields). Flexible pouches on either side can accommodate sunscreen, a cell phone, or keys. When it’s time to pack up, Stargaze easily disassembles in just a few steps and neatly fits into the included carrying case until the next adventure.
Our Verdict
Nemo's Stargaze Recliner Luxury Chair brings luxury to your camp set. Newley updated the Stargazer is possibly the most comfortable chair we've ever used at camp. The large design gives space, it reclines to allow you to find the perfect position, and you can swing in it to relax fully. It is an unbelievably good chair and suits people of all different shapes and sizes due to the chair's variation in positions and movements. It's still not likely to be something you consider taking backpacking, but it is a superbly comfortable option for a basecamp, car camping, or just at home in the garden.
Yes, it is a little pricey for what some people may consider as 'just a chair', but this is no ordinary chair. The chair design allows you to find the perfect sitting angle simply by leaning back and shifting your body weight, allowing you to look up at the stars (hence the name).
It's incredibly quick and easy to put together; all the poles are shock-corded together so you just have to pop them into place and then clip the seat part onto the poles. There's a clever way of keeping these together safely, which you will notice immediately. The pack size is similar to the weight, but as we mentioned, it's great for pitching up and enjoying the stars rather than considering moving it around a lot.
