Sit Hip Review
Take Your Inflatable Couch With You
Your days of wishing for a bench on the trail are over.
Our reviewerA Trail Bench You Bring With You
The Sit Hip solves a very specific hiking problem — the total absence of a bench right when your legs need one — by packing an entire inflatable lounger down small enough for a backpack.
It looks like it could be filled with old-school bean bag beads, but it's just air: a few passes through the open air, a quick seal at the end, and the cushion is ready to sit on. Deflated, it rolls back up for easy packing.
Sit Hip backs the product with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, replacing a faulty unit within 48 hours — a strong guarantee for a $69 product.
The first few inflations take some getting used to, and once it's out at a campsite or trailhead, don't expect to have it to yourself — everyone else will want a turn.
For the price, the range of available patterns, and a warranty that actually backs up the product, it's an easy addition to an outdoor kit.

Our Hands-On Review
Inflating it takes a few passes of running it through the air before sealing the end — the Sit Hip website's own video walks through the technique, and it clicks after a couple of tries.
Once inflated, it packs the cushioned feel of a bean-bag chair without a single bead inside, and it deflates and rolls back into a backpack just as easily as it filled up.
Backed By A Real Warranty
Any manufacturing defect gets replaced within 48 hours under Sit Hip's lifetime warranty — a rare guarantee at this price point.
