Setting up the Ozark Trail Camping Chair, like most traditional models of camp chair, is a simple pull out and extend which takes seconds. The frame felt robust and the legs sat securely on the ground to give stability, despite the small tree roots on our camp site. It is built to last with its heavy-duty powder coated steel frame and 600D denier fabric. The telescoping adjustable handle locks and extends, allowing effortless transport across multiple surfaces. The cockpit consists of unbranded aluminum parts that get the job done in a workman-like fashion. We were really happy to see a quick-release seatpost clamp since it allowed us to drop it for the descents.
The canopy is big enough to block most, if not all, sunlight any time of day, and the chair’s seat has a strip of breathable mesh down the middle for airflow. Senior staff writer Lauren Dragan ozark trail canopy said the Renetto is her most comfortable camping chair. There’s also a mesh pocket behind the backrest, to hold things you don’t need to access quickly. This chair comes with a sturdy carrying case, with an over-the-shoulder strap, and it’s simple to expand and fold up accordion-style. It has the highest weight capacity and largest seat of any chair we tested.
This Ozark Trail-branded Ridge mountain bike didn’t look like your typical department-store bike. Instead of a heavy, mild steel frame, it has a rather nice-looking aluminum one, and the rest of it looked rather decent. We couldn’t help but wonder how this $398 mountain bike rides.
The saddle even drew high marks for its overall shape and comfort. Sure, it’s a bit on the soft side, but it strikes a nice balance between plushness and support for less experienced behinds. The gear ratios felt well suited to climbing thanks in part to the 30-tooth chainring that made steeper sections on the heavier-than-average hardtail doable.
The fork is old-school tech, like early ’90s tech that relied on friction to control movement, and the results are similar, or perhaps even worse, since there is actually less friction in this one. What this fork does best is add comfort to the ride at low to mid-trail speeds, not control. After years of intermittently using the Renetto chair, one staffer said it has held up great.
