Old office chair, plenty of WD-40.
DF I should add that I need a PORTABLE and quiet swivel chair, with adustable legs. I do have old office chairs in some blinds, but the spot I'm hunting this fall requires a pop-up tent type blind, thus no flat solid floor. I can tote the pop-up blind but not an office chair as far as I need to.

The Alps O Z Stealth looks like the one for me. I can't do a 5-gallon bucket for several hours.
Came in today. 5-min to assemble and then took it for a test drive. Totally quiet. Height adjustable. Comfy too! A tad heavy if you were going to carry for miles and miles, but with the include shoulder strap I'll no issue toting it 1/4 mile or so to my spot. I've had it in the woods now twice. Easy to carry. Easy to set up and adust for lumpy ground. Quiet as a church mouse with lilttle soft house shoes. I left it in a pop-up blind Sunday night, so unless a coon poops on it I should be set!!

Good to hear. I've got the same chair too, but as of yet, still sitting in the box unopened.

I tried to post a link to it but couldn’t. Edited to add: The one I’m looking at is the alps big buck 360 degree swivel chair. It looks to be the same thing but no armrests.

No. 4 legs but the leg length is individually adjustable.

I sit on a plastic milk carton. Should add that even the carton is a pain getting into the woods. Nowhere that I hunt would a swivel chair be practical, actually funny thinking about it, not my idea of real hunting.

How is sitting on a high end camp chair less “real hunting” than a sitting on a milk carton?

It is not about what you kill, it is about the hunt....

That looks nice. I like the 3-leg vs 4-leg.

Blackout comfort max is another option. They have a arms version and a no arms version. I use the no arm version.

Will be doing some bow hunting from a tent-type pop-up blind. Need a super quiet squeak free chair that swivels.
Any suggestions? My daughter gave me a Browning tripod blind chair. It has adjustable legs for uneven ground and carrying straps. It is really comfortable and dead silent. I don't know how much it cost. Like RIO said, you need a back for long sits, but I actually use a Yeti 5 gallow bucket with lid most of the time. It's great to put stuff in and quite as well.

Old office chair, plenty of WD-40.
DF That's what we use, and lots of times half way through season somebody will get it to make noise again. A smooth floor helps and keep it out of the rain/snow with a plastic bag.
I would have got him too but a Dad Blam snow flake hit me in da eye....

I've had great with the Millennium chair. Extremely comfy and quiet.

I second the Millenium swivel chair. It is expensive but I’ve been using mine 3 seasons now and definitely worth the money compared to anything else I’ve found.

I bought the Browning Huntsman chair, folds flat, comes with strap to carry. Legs come off when not in use, fold small enough to fit in backpack, legs are individually adjustable for unlevel ground, super quiet, no arms....I use it in my pop up and its great. https://shop.opticsplanet.com/brown...bhzTXMu-55hqn1dVWZxNu5643lIaAt_wEALw_wcB
