H Hillsound BTR Stool — Ultralight Folding Seat for Backpacking & Hiking

Meet the Hillsound BTR Stool

Designed for ultralight backpacking and hiking, the BTR Stool offers a portable seat that travels as light as your daypack accepts. It blends compact form with surprising sturdiness, making it a reliable resting spot when you reach a ridge, a lakeside trail, or a quiet campsite after a long climb.

Every detail aims to support real outdoor moments. The feel of the cool aluminum frame, the snap of the auto-locking legs, and the breathable mesh seat come together to create a perch you can trust during extended days on rough terrain or breezy lookout points. This is not about luxury; it is about practical comfort when you need a pause that doesn’t slow you down.

• Under 15 oz weight across sizes and packs to umbrella dimensions for easy carry.
• Auto locking PhantomLock system unhooks, extends, and twists legs for quick seating in under 10 seconds.
• Made from aerospace grade 7001 aluminum alloy for strength with a robust load capacity up to 240 lb.
• Removable 100 nylon mesh seat detaches for cleaning, storage, and quick swaps in the field.

Sizes, specs, and versatility

The BTR Stool is offered in 14, 17, and 20 inch heights. Weighing 373 g, 416 g, and 492 g respectively, each size keeps total weight well under 500 g. In-use dimensions scale with height, while folded size remains compact for easy packing in your pack or side pocket.

Durability, materials, and warranty

Built with high-strength alloy and a forged center piece to maximize durability during rugged use. The BTR Stool carries a two-year warranty in the US and Canada, underscoring Hillsound commitment to long-lasting outdoor gear.

Care, maintenance, and choosing your size

Detach the seat for washing, wipe the frame after exposure to moisture, and store in a dry place. Choose 14 inches for tighter campsites, 17 inches for added leg clearance, or 20 inches for uneven terrain and taller seating needs.
