The Walkstool Super Heavy Duty is a three-legged telescoping stool made in Sweden, sized so the seat sits 22 inches off the ground. Its aluminum legs lock with a red push button and carry a 495 lb rating, far above the 300 lb limits of most tripod chairs. It folds to about 16 inches and weighs 28 oz, so it rides under an arm like a folding umbrella. It suits people who need a rest during walks, queues, events or travel, and who want a seat that packs small rather than a full chair.

Owners of the Walkstool line praise the build, the light weight and the high weight rating, and many use it daily for walks and travel. The recurring complaints are the price and the need to sit carefully on soft or uneven ground.
The Walkstool is a portable folding stool with a seat height of 22 inches. It has industrial-strength aluminum legs and is made in Sweden. It is light for its strength, at 28 oz., and has a capacity of 495 lbs.
The legs telescope and lock, which cuts the stool's length in half for carrying. Closed, it is not much bigger or heavier than a folding umbrella and can be carried under an arm. A draw-string carry bag is included.
On uneven ground, avoid putting all the pressure on one or two lower legs. Before each use, check that the red button is in the locked position. Improper use can result in injury.
