KingCamp Round Saucer Chair Review: Comfort That Follows You Everywhere

Ever wished your favorite living room chair could magically appear at your campsite? The KingCamp Round Saucer Folding Chair might be the next best thing—a portable cocoon of comfort that transitions seamlessly from backyard to backwoods.

Our Take

The KingCamp Saucer Chair strikes a balance between comfort and practicality. With dimensions of 33.5″W x 27.6″D x 31.5″H when open and a manageable 10.2-lb weight, it’s substantial enough to feel secure yet light enough to transport. The 600D Oxford fabric provides both durability and moisture resistance, while the alloy steel frame supports users up to 300 pounds.

What sets this chair apart is its thoughtful combination of indoor comfort and outdoor functionality. The fully padded seat cradles you in a way traditional camping chairs simply can’t match, while practical features like the built-in cup holder and rear storage pocket add genuine convenience to your outdoor experience.

It delivers significant value compared to premium outdoor chairs costing twice as much while offering substantially more comfort than basic camping options in the same price range.

How It Feels to Use

Sinking into the KingCamp Saucer Chair feels like being enveloped in a supportive hug. Unlike typical camping chairs with their rigid angles and pressure points, the curved, padded design distributes your weight evenly, allowing you to truly relax whether you’re watching a campfire or a Netflix marathon.

You’ll appreciate how the chair opens in seconds—no complex mechanisms or pinched fingers—and the stability it provides even on slightly uneven terrain thanks to its anti-skid feet. The cup holder keeps your beverage secure (no more balancing acts or spilled drinks on blankets), while the rear storage pocket puts small essentials like your phone, kindle, or sunscreen within easy reach.

The saucer design also gives you flexibility in how you sit—legs stretched out, crossed, or tucked up—making it ideal for those lengthy outdoor gatherings where conventional chairs become uncomfortable after an hour.

One sensory detail you’ll notice: the fabric doesn’t stick to bare skin on hot days like some camping chairs do, and the padding insulates you from cold ground temperatures when camping in cooler weather.

Who This Is For

The KingCamp Saucer Chair is perfect for the comfort-conscious camper who’s tired of compromising between packability and sitting comfort. You’ll love this chair if:

• You’re a regular car camper or tailgater who prioritizes comfort
• You need a versatile chair that works equally well in your living room or at outdoor events
• You’re looking for a durable seating option for beaches, concerts, or sports sidelines
• You want something substantial enough for everyday use but portable enough for adventures

It’s less ideal for ultralight backpackers, those with significant mobility challenges (the low-to-ground design can be difficult to exit), or anyone needing head/neck support for napping.

Practical Benefits

All-Day Comfort: The fully padded design prevents the pressure points and discomfort that develop after hours in traditional camping chairs, making this perfect for weekend-long festivals or camping trips.

Versatile Storage: When not in use, the chair folds down to 35″ x 9.5″ x 8″ and slides into its included carry bag, fitting easily in car trunks, closets, or under beds—saving valuable space compared to traditional indoor accent chairs.

Weather Adaptability: The moisture-wicking Oxford fabric dries quickly after morning dew or light rain, while the padding provides insulation from both hot surfaces in summer and cold ground in autumn—extending your outdoor season.

Features & Design

Ergonomic Saucer Shape: The 33.5″ wide curved design creates a natural sitting position that distributes weight evenly across your body, reducing fatigue during extended sitting sessions.

Durable Construction: The alloy steel frame supports up to 300 pounds, while the reinforced stitching on stress points ensures longevity even with regular outdoor exposure.

Thoughtful Accessories: The built-in cup holder comfortably fits anything from water bottles to coffee mugs, while the rear storage pocket (approximately 12″ x 8″) holds personal items securely.

Portability System: The included shoulder-strap carry bag makes transportation manageable at 10.2 pounds—about the weight of a medium bowling ball—lighter than most comparable padded chairs.

What Users Say

“This chair is so comfy! It’s got a stable padded seat and it’s easy for me to sit and get out of. Dogs sit in it well and it’s wide enough that it doesn’t tip when they hop out.” – Jill B.

“I was scared for this, but I’m in love. I now wish I got the one with the cooler in the back! This thing didn’t flinch and I felt ‘surrounded’ and comfortable. Would buy a 4th time with no regrets.” – Anonymous Verified Buyer

“When our existing gaming papasan chairs didn’t hold up to 2 teenagers and a husband, I searched for something sturdier… Not only have they held up to a 270+ pound hubby, they’ve held up to two wiggly-fidgety teens!” – KSMomto2

Other Options to Consider

MacSports Padded Outdoor Folding Lounge Chair: Offers a higher 375-pound weight capacity and slightly more room, making it better for larger individuals, though it typically costs about 15-20% more.

CORE Oversized Papasan Saucer Chair: Features a wider 37-inch seat and similar 300-pound capacity, providing more sprawling space but with a bulkier folded profile.

ALPHA CAMP Oversized Round Camping Chair: Provides plush padding with a higher 350-pound weight capacity and weighs under 14 pounds, making it more substantial but less portable than the KingCamp option.

Bottom Line

The KingCamp Round Saucer Folding Chair transforms outdoor seating, offering home-level comfort for adventurers and homebodies alike. At the cost of a restaurant dinner, this chair delivers portable comfort that follows you from living room to campsite, proving that great seating knows no boundaries.
