    Lafuma FRS v Camp 4 Venezia chairs

    We had 2 lamfuma chairs foryears and they were brilliant - when a bar went on one chair the model had changed designed (as I said we'd had it some yeras by then) so although they do spare part, this part was no longer in stock.

    breathable ground sheet query

    We've tried various ways to get ours clean after mud etc has stained it - washing powder, bleach, vanish etc - nothing worked and we have both a green blotchy one and a grey blotchy groundsheet now! Decided that its only flooring and not worry!!
