Does this need to be strapped to a chair or can it be set on the ground with my child in it (e.g. camping)?

I don't think it is stable enough to set on the ground without additional support. The seat is also harder than the Eddie Bauer Folding Booster my daughter has, but this is fine for my house (grandma.)

Sitting on the sofa, it would be too big to use in a chair. It's not heavy but is too large to use in a chair. Hope this helps

Mr. Portley,One option is to purchase a second sling, the sling can then be place on the chair prior to the person being seated. Hope this helps.

On the Regalo website it only states that it will hold a child up to 37lbs. I used it for my 8 month old when we went camping. Strapped perfectly to the picnic tables. We will continue to use it until he reaches 37lbs or can until he can sit at the table comfortably.

It should come with its own canopy, which should fold down into a small bag like a camping chair. It provides shade, and some protection from rain, but windy storms will still get rain on whoever is inside. My wife has taken our kids walking on a trail during rain, and its probably better to just let them get wet and not worry about the canopy.

It's made with just the tent material. You would need to place some type of padding or child's sleeping bag for some comfort

This is not intended for regular use. It is made of plastic and fabric that folds up and closes down and needs to be wrapped around a chair or something sturdy. This cannot be used as standalone as well. My personal experience was, it is okay for constant supervised seat, you need to watch your kid because the seat can buckle sometimes, it also has weight restrictions; since it is made of plastic. So be very careful, but my suggestion would be to avoid this.

It comes with straps to attach the seat to the underside and backside of a chair. If you use it on a bench you wouldn't be able to attach it to anything. I would be afraid it could slide off the bench.

It doesn't come with any straps or a bag to transport the tent. You'll need to devise your own storage bag. All in all it's a nice cheap tent. It doesn't leak and we've used it at least three or four times without any problems. One last thing to note, it will be a tight fit if you're looking to sleep 4. It was comfy for two adults and a 4 year old.

The tent is an integral part of the cot and is permanently attached. The whole unit weighs between 25 to 30 pounds so it isn't going anywhere. If you were in some very high winds you could stake down the legs. The rain-fly has tie downs that attach to the legs of the cot.

We'll we use ours up in the mountains it's on carpet but it's the mountains and my kids have no problem . I would maybe just put a extra blanket on the floor so it doesn't slide around plus it might help w the warmth. Hope this helps !

The chair would have to have some form of a hole to hook the harness to. If not, you could potentially use the legs. I've found this harness extremely useful, my toddler NEVER sits still...!

a) There's no manufacturer provided way to anchor it down. There is, however, four elastic loops on the bottom of each "corner" that you may be able to use to secure it down with some of your own rope, etc. b) I hate to say this, but I think it's a question of intent. If you have a heavy sleeper who might press against the sides of the tent while they're sleeping I don't think it's going to tip over as long as you have it on a flat surface (the ground). Some guy tried to use the older model on top of a bed and said it DID tip over. It makes sense since the bed would dip down where the kid was lying and the tent wouldn't have a flat surface to support itself to counteract the weight. My kids weigh about 35 pounds and could not get it to tip over just by rolling up against the sides with the tent on the floor. (She slept with her rear end and half her torso hanging out the tent opening and it did not fall over.) However, if you have a kid who's going to actively try to turn it into a hamster ball by throwing themselves around inside then it very well may tip over. Sorry if this isn't a lot of help.

I tried to use it for a while before we fastened it Down and it would just fall over. So no it has to be fastened down

It doesn't need to be attached to a chair. If you don't use the straps it becomes just an inflatable pillow -- (probably not worth the money if you don't utilize the straps).

Very easy... it folds up just like one of the campfire chairs that stores in its own bag. This cot stores in a similar bag. The material (of the storage bag) isn't as thick as I'd like it to be and I anticipate it tearing after repeated use, but finding another bag to keep it in won't be a problem. This cot was worth every penny we paid for it. My 2.5 year old does great with it.

I agree with exactly what the other people have responded. It lays flat depending on the ground. Highly recommend it! My daughter loves her tent.
