Using the Big Agnes Big Easy Chair Kit is a breeze. First, get your Big Agnes sleep pad that's either 51cm or 64 cm wide. Take the chair kit out of the included mesh stuff sack. Then, attach the kit to your pad according to the instructions. Voila! You now have a comfortable camp chair. Note that the pad is sold separately, so make sure you have it before setting up. When it comes to maintenance, keep the kit dry and clean. After use, shake off any dirt or debris and store it in the mesh sack. If it gets wet, let it dry completely before storing to prevent mold and mildew. This way, your chair kit will last you many camping trips.
