Warning: Reconsider those ultra-light camping chairs if you're tall

I'm 6'4" and bought a popular 1.5 pound chair from a big outdoor store last June, the kind that packs down to a water bottle size. The guy at the counter told me it was fine for tall folks, but after 3 nights in Yosemite the frame bowed out and I woke up on the dirt at 2 AM. Has anyone else around my height found a lightweight chair that actually holds up for a full trip?

My buddy Dave broke his tailbone on that exact same chair.

Heard a buddy say the Helinox Savanna has a taller seat that might work better for guys our size.
