Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

Helinox Chair Zero LT Camping Chair Melon

Season:SS26

Brand:Helinox

Code:10003711

Helinox Chair Zero LT — The Lightest Camp Chair Ever Made When every gram counts, the Chair Zero LT is your ticket to comfort without compromise. Weighing just 510 grams, it’s the lightest full-size camp chair on the market — perfect for backpackers, bikepackers, and ultralight adventurers.

What is Helinox Chair Zero LT Camping Chair?

The Chair Zero LT is the ultimate ultralight seating solution for gram-conscious adventurers. Whether thru-hiking, kayaking, or touring by bike, it gives you a comfortable place to rest without weighing down your pack. Despite its featherlight build at just 510g, it supports up to 120 kg.

What is it made of?

GhostGrid Monofilament Mesh

The seat fabric uses Helinox’s next-generation GhostGrid material, a translucent monofilament mesh engineered to reduce weight without sacrificing durability. The open structure keeps the chair incredibly light and resists tearing. Breathable, quick-drying, and compact, this innovative fabric provides excellent performance in demanding environments.

Reinforced Nylon Resin Hubs

Critical load points are reinforced with high-strength nylon resin hubs. These hubs distribute weight efficiently across the frame, improving durability while maintaining flexibility and resilience. Nylon resin is chosen for its impact resistance and ability to withstand repeated assembly and disassembly without cracking or warping.

Proprietary DAC Aluminium Alloy Frame

The frame is constructed from Helinox’s proprietary DAC aluminium alloy, the same premium material used in high-end tent poles. This alloy is exceptionally strong yet incredibly lightweight, offering excellent strength-to-weight performance. Naturally corrosion-resistant, DAC aluminium ensures the Chair Zero LT can endure varied climates and tough backcountry use while keeping weight to an absolute minimum.

What are its features?

The Chair Zero LT blends technical engineering with practical design, offering comfort and stability in an ultralight package.

Revolutionary Lightweight Design

At just 510 g trail weight, the Chair Zero LT is the benchmark for ultralight camp chairs. Every element is optimised — from the low-profile seat to the translucent GhostGrid mesh — to eliminate unnecessary grams without compromising comfort or function.

Enhanced Stability with X-Strap

A removable X-strap stabiliser provides extra support on soft or uneven terrain. It keeps the chair steady on sand, grass, or loose soil, so you can sit back confidently even when conditions are less than ideal.

Comfort-Oriented Construction

Reinforced seat corners increase tension and support where needed most, ensuring the chair feels secure and comfortable for extended sitting. Despite the minimalist design, it offers impressive comfort for its size and weight.

Portable and Packable

Collapsible and compact, the Chair Zero LT packs into a carry case measuring just 37 × 12 × 12 cm (14.5" × 4.5" × 4.5"). This small footprint makes it easy to slip into a backpack, pannier, or kayak hatch.

Features:

  • GhostGrid monofilament mesh seat fabric
  • Proprietary DAC aluminium alloy frame
  • Reinforced nylon resin hubs
  • X-strap stabiliser for soft terrain
  • Ultralight design with low seat profile
  • Reinforced corners for added comfort
  • Collapsible, compact, and portable
  • Packs into 37 × 12 × 12 cm carry case
  • Easy assembly with shock-corded poles
Helinox Chair Zero LT Review This is one of those bits of kit that instantly earns a permanent place in your pack. The first time we picked it up, we double-checked the weight — it’s that light. Yet when you sit in it after a long day, it feels reassuringly solid. The DAC alloy frame and cleverly tensioned seat design give real comfort, not the flimsy “perch” you get from most ultralight chairs.
How Does It Stay So Light Yet So Strong? Helinox stripped it back to the essentials — then refined every detail. The GhostGrid monofilament mesh keeps weight ultra-low while staying supportive and breathable, and reinforced corners add structure where it counts. The high-tension DAC frame snaps together instantly with shock-corded poles. When it’s time to move, it packs down to just 37 × 12 cm, slipping neatly into a rucksack or pannier.
How Strong Can a Half-Kilo Chair Really Be? Stronger than you’d ever expect. The Chair Zero LT supports up to 120 kg without wobbling and feels stable even on uneven ground, so you can fully relax after a big day. It keeps its shape and strength through repeated use too — proof that true lightweight design doesn’t have to mean compromise.

FAQ

How much does the Chair Zero LT really weigh?

510 g trail weight (544 g packed). It’s the lightest camp chair Helinox have ever produced — ideal for ultralight adventures.

Is it comfortable for its size?

Surprisingly comfortable. The seat tension and frame geometry provide excellent lower-back support, making it a great chair for long evenings at camp.

Can it handle soft or uneven ground?

Yes. The removable X-strap adds stability on sand, snow, or grass by helping prevent the legs from spreading or sinking.

How strong is it?

Despite the minimal build, it supports up to 120 kg / 265 lbs thanks to Helinox’s DAC aluminium alloy frame and reinforced hubs.

What’s the seat height?

It’s a low-profile chair that keeps you close to the ground — great for relaxing, cooking, or sitting around a campfire.

Is it easy to set up?

Very. The shock-corded DAC poles snap together in seconds, and the seat fabric slides over each corner with minimal effort.

Is the mesh durable?

Yes. The GhostGrid monofilament mesh is tear-resistant, breathable, and quick-drying — ideal for wet or dusty environments.

The LT version is even lighter thanks to the GhostGrid seat fabric and refined frame design — similar comfort, less weight.

Is it suitable for taller users?
