Maybe you could pioneer them then and do a review? It does look comfy, I'd ask if you need arms on it?
Ken't tackle have them for £36. www.kenttackle.com/trakker_bedchairs_recliner_chairs_4_ctg.htm

I bought a new chair recently and found when trying various ones, the JRC X-Lox is heavy compared with all the alloy chairs available, I guess the frame is steel, which would make it strong though. My last chair was a Wychwood supalight, they are very light, nothing else compares but at 19 stone it was not strong enough for me, lasted just over a year before I flopped down in it one time too many.............I checked loads out before finally settling for a Nash Nomad which I am very happy with.

The X-Lo stalker I believe is about a year old. The biggest problem I see with it is that it doesn't have adjustable back legs which could be a problem on the river bank.
Have a look at the JRC Classic (best chair they ever made, but not sure if they still make it) or the Chub Lo-Lite which looks like Chubs equivalent. I've had a classic for the last five years and it's dealt with my 15 stone just fine. Cheers Paul |

i got the JRC X-Lite chair for christmas and i think it is fantastic adjustables front and rear legs, a sprung seat and it ways 3.2kg which is only 100grams more than the X-Lo stalker chair. if ur looking for a ssuper light weight and low stalking and roving chair tho you could always go for the JRC guest chair it only ways 2kg. hope this helps

My mate bought one while I bought the Nash one with arms.
The x-low is ok to sit on but a bit difficult for us old fogeys to get out of. My mate is a few years younger and a bit more nimble than me without my dodgy knees. I'm glad I bought the Nash it's very comfy and not too heavy. The legs on the Nash give me a bit more adjustability and I like the arms. It seems a bit sturdier than the x-low but time will tell. There was very little difference in price. Bill |

Climax tackle of Dronfield have the x-lo at £29.99,and the x-lite at £35,I looked at both,and bought the JRC relaxa recliner at £39.99,ideal for my old bones,and creaking legs.
