Quick verdict
Verdict
The Trakker RLX Nano Chair is a proper useful bit of kit for anyone who likes keeping the loadout lean. At roughly 2.7kg, it’s easy to shift around, yet the padded fleece upper gives you somewhere much nicer to sit than a tackle box or unhooking mat.
It’s not the chair for sprawling out like you’re in the garden. But for tying rigs, watching the water, cooking a brew or using a bedchair as a seat, it’s bob on. The low height and adjustable front legs make it especially handy on uneven or sloping banks.
A smart compact chair with a cracking weight and useful bank-friendly adjustment.

The aluminium frame, fleece padding and adjustable mud-foot legs make it feel more considered than a basic folding stool.
Its low, stable design and adjustable front legs suit everyday sitting on varied bank ground.
It won’t catch the fish for you, but it keeps short sessions comfortable and helps you stay mobile between spots.
It’s light, compact, simple to position and easy to store on a barrow or beneath a bedchair.

Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Mobile carp anglers and short-session fishers. It keeps the kit light and gives you a comfortable perch while you’re moving between spots or waiting for a bite-time.
- Anglers using a bedchair as a base camp. It can be used as a standalone seat or alongside the bedchair, without eating loads of space on the barrow.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers wanting a tall, armchair-style seat. The low 29–32cm seat height is all about compactness, not a high sitting position or loads of recline.
- Heavier anglers above the stated capacity. The maximum load is 130kg under normal usage, so a stronger full-size chair would be the safer shout beyond that.
On paper
Good points and things to know
What we like
- Very light and easy to carry between swims.
- Compact enough for a tidy barrow or short-session setup.
- Adjustable front legs and mud feet are handy on sloping or soft banks.
- Fleece padding adds proper comfort over basic folding stools.
- Useful standalone or tucked against a bedchair.
Worth knowing
- The low seating position won’t suit everyone, especially if you prefer a taller chair.
- The compact design gives less room to sprawl than a full-size carp chair.
- A 130kg maximum load means heavier anglers should look at a more substantial option.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Trakker RLX Nano Chair
There’s a lot to be said for a chair that doesn’t turn every short session into a full-on expedition. You know the score: rods, net, mat, bucket, bait, brew kit and suddenly the barrow looks like it’s moving house. The Trakker RLX Nano Chair keeps things a bit more sensible. It’s a compact, low-level seat for carp anglers who want comfort without dragging a massive throne around the lake.
At roughly 2.7kg, it’s properly easy to shift. That matters when you’re moving swims, stalking the margins or walking a fair way from the car park. It folds down to about 72cm long and 47cm wide, so it can sit on a barrow or tuck under a bedchair without nicking all your valuable space. For short sessions, that compact footprint is a real result.
This isn’t a big, high-backed armchair with loads of room to sprawl. The RLX Nano sits low, with a seat height of approximately 29–32cm and a seat width around 46cm. That puts you close to the action and keeps the chair stable and unobtrusive. It’s a good fit for tying rigs, sorting bait, having a brew or watching a quiet spot without feeling like you’ve brought the lounge furniture.
The aluminium frame keeps the weight down while still giving the chair a solid foundation. Trakker has used a fleece upper and padding, so you get a much nicer perch than you would from a bare folding stool. That extra comfort comes into its own when the weather’s turned grim and you’re spending a few hours watching motionless bobbins. No-one wants a numb backside before bite-time.
The front legs adjust, and the mud feet help spread things on softer ground. That’s useful because very few swims are genuinely flat once you’ve found your way down to the water. On a sloping bank, you can get the chair sitting more naturally rather than leaning awkwardly to one side. You’ll still want to press the feet in firmly and check the ground, but the design gives you more control than a basic fixed-leg seat.
The low format also makes sense beside a bedchair. You can use the Nano on its own during the day, then slide it under the bedchair when you’re packing away or trying to keep the swim tidy. It works nicely for anglers who use the bedchair as a daytime seat but don’t fancy climbing on and off it every five minutes. Less faff, basically.
The camo finish keeps it looking at home among the rest of a carp setup, while the polyester outer should handle normal bank life without fuss. It’s not trying to be flashy. It’s a practical little chair that does the job and doesn’t demand a dedicated corner of the barrow. That’s exactly the sort of thing that earns its place after the novelty wears off.
There are a couple of things to think about before you commit. Low chairs aren’t for everyone, particularly if you prefer a taller seat or find getting up from near ground level awkward. The stated maximum load is 130kg under normal usage, so heavier anglers should choose accordingly. But if you’re inside that limit and want a lightweight, easy-to-store seat, the RLX Nano is a cracking option.
For the mobile carp angler, this is all about keeping the session flowing. It’s light enough to carry, compact enough to stash and comfortable enough to stop you pinching the tackle box for a seat. Add in the adjustable front legs and the ability to use it with a bedchair, and you’ve got a very handy bit of bank furniture for modern, stripped-back fishing.
Our take
Small chair, big session-saving potential
The RLX Nano’s big selling point is simple: it gives you a proper seat without becoming another bulky lump of kit. It slips on a barrow, tucks under a bedchair and won’t have you faffing about when you’re moving swims.
That makes it a strong match for mobile carp fishing, stalking and short sessions. Just remember that a low chair puts you close to the deck, so it’s less appealing if you prefer a high, upright seat or need lots of support getting up and down.
Compact carp comfort
What you’re actually buying
The RLX Nano is a low-level chair built around a strong, lightweight aluminium frame. Open, it’s approximately 57cm high and 47cm wide, with a seat height around 29–32cm. The fleece upper and padding give it a more comfortable feel than a basic stool, while the bespoke Trakker camo keeps it looking spot on in a carp setup.
The front legs adjust and finish in mud feet, helping you find a sensible level on uneven or sloping ground. It closes to approximately 72cm long by 47cm wide and weighs around 2.7kg. That makes it easy to carry, slide under a bedchair or strap onto a barrow.
Worth knowing. The 130kg maximum load applies under normal usage. Keep the chair on firm ground where possible, set the legs properly and avoid treating a compact low chair like a full-size recliner.
Best on the bank
A tidy choice for mobile sessions
This chair makes most sense for short-session carp anglers, stalking fans and anyone who regularly moves swims. It gives you a comfortable perch for rig work, bait prep and watching the rods, without adding a hefty lump to the barrow. It’s also handy when your bedchair is already doing night-time duty and you want a separate daytime seat.
The low stance suits anglers who like staying close to the ground and keeping their setup compact. It’s less convincing for anyone after a high, upright chair with lots of space, arm support or a relaxed recline. If you’re happy sitting low, though, the size-to-comfort balance is properly good.
Quick answers
The stuff you’ll want to know
Will it work on a sloping bank? Yes. The adjustable front legs and mud feet are designed to help on flat or sloping banks. Get the feet planted securely before you settle in, especially on soft margins.
Can it replace a bedchair seat? It can certainly complement one. Use it standalone during the day, or position it with the bedchair when you want a separate low seat. It also fits under the bedchair for storage.
Is it easy to carry? That’s one of its strongest points. At approximately 2.7kg, with a closed length around 72cm, it’s a doddle to move between swims and won’t dominate the barrow.
