The Lippert Scout is built for campers who need a genuinely sturdy seat at the site. A heavy-duty steel frame, PVC-coated 600D polyester fabric, and a 500-pound weight capacity put it well above the average folding camp chair, while the padded mesh back, seat, and armrests keep it comfortable through a long evening around the fire.
Most camp chairs feel the strain after a season or two. The Scout uses a powder-coated steel tube frame and 600-denier polyester with a PVC backing -- materials chosen to resist water, mildew, oil, chemicals, dirt, salt, and UV exposure. That combination makes this chair equally at home on a full-hookup campground, a boondocking desert flat, or a beach weekend.
At 5.5 lbs, the Scout is light enough to carry from the tow vehicle without a second trip. It folds flat and ships with a dedicated carrying bag so it travels cleanly inside a truck bed, cargo bay, or basement storage compartment.
Heavy-duty steel frame rated to support 500 lbs -- well above most competing folding chairs in this class.
Padded mesh back, seat, and armrests provide ventilated, cushioned support during long outdoor sessions.
PVC-coated 600D polyester resists water, mildew, UV, oil, chemicals, salt, and dirt for long-term outdoor durability.
Folds flat in seconds and comes with a carry bag. At 5.5 lbs it fits easily in RV basement storage or truck beds.
The Scout frame is steel tubing with a powder-coat finish that helps prevent rust when the chair is left out in morning dew or light rain. The seat and back fabric is 600-denier polyester -- a mid-to-heavy weight weave for camp furniture -- laminated with a PVC backing that blocks moisture from soaking through. Armrests are padded for extended sitting comfort and share the same fabric construction as the seat.
The Scout folds along a standard cross-frame pivot so it collapses to a flat profile quickly without tools or multiple steps. The included carry bag cinches over the folded chair and has a shoulder strap, making it easy to haul from the rig to the site and back. When stored in an RV basement bay or enclosed cargo area, the flat folded shape stacks efficiently with other camp furniture.
Lippert rates the Scout fabric as resistant to water, mildew, oil, chemicals, dirt, salt, and UV rays. For RVers who camp in varied climates -- coastal sites with salt air, desert sun, or rainy Pacific Northwest campgrounds -- this resistance extends the usable life of the chair compared to standard polyester fabric without PVC backing.
The Lippert Scout Outdoor Folding Chair carries a Limited 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
