Title: Surprisingly Useful for Fishing Trips (and More!), But Handle with Care
Review: I recently picked up the Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool specifically for my fishing adventures, thinking it would be the perfect lightweight and portable seating solution for both boat trips and jetty fishing. Overall, I’m quite pleased with its core functionality, though there are a few things potential buyers should keep in mind, echoing some experiences I’ve seen from others.The first thing that impressed me was just how lightweight and portable this stool truly is. Collapsing down to a mere 2.5 inches, it easily slips into my tackle bag or can be comfortably carried using the integrated nylon-web handle or the handy, storable shoulder strap. This makes it an absolute winner for anyone who prioritizes packability for activities like camping, hiking, or, in my case, fishing and BBQing.Setting it up is generally easy and quick. The “accordion” style opening using the finger holes is intuitive, and I appreciate the slight twist that locks it securely at the desired height. Being able to adjust it to intermediate heights is a nice feature, offering flexibility beyond the standard full extension of about 17.75 inches, which is a comfortable sitting height for me. The nearly 10-inch diameter seat feels perfectly adequate for my needs and doesn’t feel restrictive.The advertised 400lbs load capacity gives me a significant sense of security, especially when using it on a boat where balance can sometimes be a factor. It certainly appears to be sturdily made and, as advertised, it does feel more robust than some other lightweight folding stools I’ve seen. The availability in a wide variety of colors is also a nice touch.However, mirroring some feedback from other users, the durability does seem to be a point to monitor. While it feels solid initially, some have reported issues with it falling apart upon breaking. I haven’t encountered this myself yet, but it’s a concern I’ll definitely keep in mind with continued use.The ease of opening and closing is also something where experiences seem to vary. Personally, I found the accordion mechanism and the twist-to-lock system relatively straightforward to operate after a couple of tries. However, I can see how some might find it a bit fiddly at first, so be prepared for a potential learning curve.Finally, the manufacturer’s explicit warning about avoiding use on sloping ground is crucial. For my purposes on relatively flat boat decks and jetties, this isn’t a major concern. However, if you intend to use this for hiking or in areas with uneven terrain, definitely heed their advice to test the stability carefully before fully sitting down.For my primary use of fishing (on both the boat and jetty), the Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool has proven to be a surprisingly useful and convenient addition to my gear. The portability and ease of setup are fantastic, and the high weight capacity offers peace of mind. Just be mindful of the potential durability concerns highlighted by some users and the limitations regarding uneven surfaces. I’d recommend this to others looking for a lightweight and portable seating solution for various outdoor activities, but advise them to handle it with reasonable care to maximize its lifespan.

Title: A Surprisingly Versatile Companion—Sturdy, Lightweight, and Portable
Review: This Boreeman folding stool falls squarely into the “didn’t know I needed it until I tried it” category. I first spotted it in a YouTube short and bought it for working on my car in the garage—turns out it’s been invaluable. The accordion-style folding mechanism is clever and compact, and once unfolded it feels rock-solid. Even better, I often use it as a side table when I need a quick surface for tools or parts. At just a few pounds and rated to 400 lbs, it tucks easily into my camping gear, too. If you want a multipurpose, ultra-portable stool (or impromptu table), this one delivers.

Title: Neat.
Review: Awesome idea. Amazing space saving chair, just wish the seating area, at least the top half, was made with one of those softish materials kinda like the stuff used for chair armrests so that it could be more comfortable for the butt. Because the hard plain plastic material makes my butt hurt after about 5 minutes, and mind you I have meat back there, and it still hurts muh butt bones. Tldr; amazing idea, but wish the seat was made with a rubbery spongy material to make it less painful to sit on.

Title: Sturdy and easy to open and close
Review: Bought this folding stool to use while I work outside in my garden or doing carpentry work. It’s very easy to open and to close it or to adjust the height. When I sat on it, I thought it would wobble or try to fold down, but it held up very well. I also stood on it and it feels strong and sturdy. It’s a really good item to invest in.

Title: Small seat. Big Convenience.
Review: This is compact, sturdy, and wonderfully useful. We bring it to sport events, but it would be great for camping, waiting in long lines, etc. It is easy to set up and take down. The long and small straps, make it easy to carry. If you are looking for a compact, space-saving solution for seating — this is your best buy.

Title: good portable seat at a good price
Review: Why did you pick this product vs others?:This innovative design allows anyone to carry their own portable seat. Great for those of us with spinal stenosis and only able to walk short distances before needing to sit down for the pain relief. There aren’t any other options meeting my needs. I like to use it around the house so I can sit anywhere when I need pain relief. Right now it is in my garden shed.

Review: The Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool has quickly gone from “nice to have” to “can’t live without” in my daily life. Whether it’s camping weekends, outdoor concerts, or even just needing a quick seat while working in the garden, this stool delivers in ways I didn’t expect.Strength Meets Smart Design:First off, don’t let the compact size fool you. This thing is rock solid. Thanks to Boreeman’s upgraded structural design, it easily holds full adult weight without any wobble. I was amazed at how secure it feels, even on slightly uneven ground. The way it folds out with a simple twist motion and locks into place is smooth and incredibly satisfying.True Portability:It’s super lightweight, and the built-in adjustable strap means I can just sling it over my shoulder and forget it’s there until I need it. It’s smaller than a frisbee when collapsed — perfect for tossing into the car, backpack, or even a tote bag.Adjustable for Comfort:One thing I love is that you can adjust the height depending on what you need. Whether I’m resting during a hike or using it as a mini table for gear setup, it’s incredibly versatile.Durability That Lasts:After months of use (and a few accidental drops), it still looks and works like new. The materials are high quality and weather-resistant — no weird creaking or bending after repeated use.Final Thoughts:The Boreeman Upgraded Folding Stool proves that brilliant design doesn’t need to be complicated. It’s tough, it’s portable, it’s convenient — honestly, it’s the sidekick you didn’t know you needed. If you spend any time outdoors, travel, or just want a reliable “anywhere” seat, do yourself a favor and grab one. You’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!

Review: Bought as a shower stool while I’m on crutches for a couple weeks. Literally just use it to sit on for 10 minutes a day. After a week of use, the thing broke while I was sitting on it. Fortunately didn’t hurt myself but definitely no what I expected. I thought the product was really cool and I would use it for the range and camping but not anymore!
