Coleman Kids Quad Chair (MPN 2000033703)

Published · Researched 2026-09-21

2026 lineup note: Still sold through Coleman dealers and major outdoor retailers as of 2026-09-20, though only dealer inventory pages were found in this research pass — a current Coleman.com listing for this exact model was not confirmed. Teal model: MPN 2000033703, UPC 076501135367. Pink model: MPN 2000033704.

Version lineage (2023–2026)

  • Long-running stable design: The Kids Quad Chair (2000033703 teal / 2000033704 pink) is a commodity kids' camp chair that Coleman has sold with essentially unchanged design for many years: steel quad frame, low seat, mesh cup holder, carry bag, glow-in-the-dark design accents. No documented year-over-year changes for 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 were found — this is a stable SKU, not a refreshed product line.
  • Annual change detail: UNVERIFIED — no evidence of any model-year revisions in the 2023–2026 window; treat it as the same chair throughout.
  • Smart buy: There is no "new version" to wait for. Buy on price and color preference (teal 2000033703 vs. pink 2000033704). Street prices fluctuate between roughly $23 and $30; the ~$30 reference price is the normal ceiling.
  • Used market: Common at garage sales and secondhand; check the frame locking mechanism, fabric tears at the corners, and that the carry bag is included. At new street prices near $23, used only makes sense under ~$10.

Overview

A low-to-the-ground folding quad chair sized for kids, rated to 160 lb. Roomy 24-inch seat, locking steel frame, mesh cup holder in the armrest, glow-in-the-dark design details, and an included carry bag. The straightforward, inexpensive "every kid gets one" camp chair.

Key Specs

  • Supports up to: 160 lb
  • Seat: 24 in wide (roomy for a kids' chair)
  • Sitting height: UNVERIFIED — conflicting listings. Feature copy says 10.2 in; some specification blocks say 13.5 in. The chair is consistently described as low to the ground; do not rely on either number without measuring.
  • Weight: commonly listed at 4 lb; some listings show 3.25 or 3.6 lb — exact weight UNVERIFIED, expect ~4 lb
  • Frame: steel, locking quad design
  • Features: mesh cup holder, glow-in-the-dark design accents, carry bag included
  • Colors: Teal (2000033703), Pink (2000033704)

Pricing

  • Reference price: $29.99
  • Street/observed: $22.99 (NVN Marine, teal, observed 2026-09-20); other listings at $24.99–$27.99
  • All prices USD. The $22.99 observation comes from a smaller dealer — confirm stock and shipping before relying on it. Coleman.com's own current price for this model was not confirmed in this pass.

In the Box

  • Kids Quad Chair
  • Carry bag

Warranty

1-year limited warranty (per Coleman product listings). Full exclusions and claim terms were not verified in this pass — UNVERIFIED. Typical Coleman limited warranties cover defects in materials/workmanship to the original purchaser and exclude normal wear, misuse, and commercial use, but the exact text for this chair should be confirmed on coleman.com or in the product packaging before relying on it.

Support & Parts

  • Coleman consumer support is reachable through coleman.com; replacement-part availability for this specific chair (e.g., replacement carry bags) was not verified — UNVERIFIED.
  • Retailer return windows (typically 30–90 days) are the practical remedy for early failures.

Community Verdict

Thinner community discussion than the packs and sleeping bags in this set — no strong Reddit/forum consensus surfaced. An independent review (besttentcotsforcamping.com) calls it reliable, easy for kids to use, comfortable, and inexpensive, with the expected trade-offs: bulky and long when packed, and heavier than ultralight alternatives. Parent buyers treat it as a commodity: it does the job, kids like the cup holder and glow details, and at ~$23–$30 it is cheap enough to replace rather than repair. No fabricated scores: qualitatively a solid, unremarkable workhorse — popular by volume rather than by enthusiast acclaim.

Long-term durability & warranty-claim reality

  • What owners report (2–3 yr horizon): The chair itself (steel quad frame + polyester sling) holds up well — Walmart's listing (observed Sept 2026) carries a 4.3/5 rating across 69 reviews, with "sturdy construction" the most-cited pro and "suitable for ages 2–4 with room to grow" noted by parent buyers. The dominant wear pattern across Coleman quad chairs generally (per hundreds of Coleman chair reviews aggregated on opentip.com, Nov 2022): the carry bag is the weak link — multiple owners report the bag strap tearing off or the bag fabric ripping on first use, with one buyer noting "Coleman will not replace the bag." The frame lock mechanism and fabric corners are the secondary inspection points on older units.
  • Glow-in-the-dark accents: fade with sun exposure and washing — cosmetic, not structural. UNVERIFIED whether the current teal/pink colorways use the same phosphorescent print as earlier runs.
  • Warranty-claim reality: Coleman's published 1-year limited warranty covers defects in materials/workmanship to the original purchaser. In practice, per owner reports, Coleman does not sell or ship replacement carry bags — a torn bag is a dead end in the warranty channel, and at ~$23–30 street price the rational remedy is replacement of the whole chair, not a claim. No evidence of a functioning parts program for this SKU (UNVERIFIED).

Version history — year by year (2023→2026)

  • 2023: Same stable SKU (2000033703 teal / 2000033704 pink) — no documented revision. Commodity kids' chair with locking steel quad frame, mesh cup holder, glow-in-the-dark accents, included carry bag.
  • 2024: No documented change (UNVERIFIED — no model-year changelog exists for this SKU; treat as unchanged).
  • 2025: No documented change (UNVERIFIED).
  • 2026: Still sold through dealers and major retailers (observed 2026-09-20); a current Coleman.com listing for this exact MPN was not confirmed in this pass. No redesign announced.
  • This is a stable commodity SKU, not a refreshed product line — there is no "new version" to wait for.

Head-to-head vs closest rivals

  • vs REI Flexlite Air (/library/gear/camp-furniture/rei-flexlite-air/) — the Flexlite Air is a ~1 lb adult ultralight chair; the Kids Quad Chair is ~4 lb. The Flexlite is the backpacking solution; the Coleman is the car-camping/soccer-sideline commodity. Totally different missions — a child big enough to carry a Flexlite comfortably is arguably aging out of the Kids Quad Chair.
  • vs YETI Trailhead Camp Chair (/library/gear/camp-furniture/yeti-trailhead-camp-chair/) — adult chair, ~7.7 lb, premium-priced. Buy the YETI for yourself, the Coleman for the kid; nothing about the YETI justifies buying it for a small child.
  • vs Helinox Chair Zero (/library/gear/camp-furniture/helinox-chair-zero/) — adult UL chair (~1 lb). Same logic as the Flexlite: if the kid is backpacking with you, the Chair Zero is the real answer; the Coleman is for drive-up camping.
  • Honest difference: the Kids Quad Chair's actual in-catalog peers are adult chairs bought for kids out of convenience. It wins on price ($23–30 vs $100–300) and kid-scale ergonomics; it loses on packed size and weight for any trip involving carrying the chair more than a parking lot.

Care & maintenance

  • Shake out sand and dirt after each trip; sand in the scissor joints accelerates wear on the locking mechanism.
  • Spot-clean the polyester sling with mild soap and water; air-dry fully before packing to prevent mildew in the carry bag.
  • Store folded in its bag in a dry place; do not store compressed under heavy loads (can deform the frame slightly over time — minor).
  • Inspect the frame lock tabs before each season; a chair that folds unexpectedly under a small child is the one real safety failure mode. If the lock no longer engages, retire the chair.
  • The glow-in-the-dark print will fade with repeated sun exposure — unavoidable, cosmetic.

Buying traps

  • Adult vs kids confusion: Coleman sells many similarly named quad chairs (Oversized Quad with Cooler, Broadband Mesh Quad). Confirm MPN 2000033703 (teal) / 2000033704 (pink) — the kids' chair is the 160-lb-rated, 24-inch-seat version. An adult chair is too tall for small kids and a poor substitute.
  • Color/price spread: Walmart (observed Sept 2026) listed teal at $29.49 and pink at $34.64 (pink out of stock) — same chair, different demand curves. Don't overpay for pink.
  • Carry bag as dealbreaker: the bag is the weak link and Coleman won't replace it; when buying used, a missing or torn bag is normal — price accordingly (new chairs run ~$23, so a used chair without a bag is worth <$10).
  • No Coleman.com listing confirmed (Sept 2026): buy from a retailer with a real return window; gray-market/3P sellers occasionally list the wrong (adult) model under the kids' MPN — check the 160-lb rating on arrival.

Community Verdict — additional voices (appended 2026-09-20)

  • Walmart listing reviews (69 reviews, 4.3/5, observed Sept 2026): pros cluster on sturdy construction and bright colors; cons cluster on size expectations (some buyers expected a bigger chair) rather than failures.
  • Aggregated Coleman quad-chair reviews (opentip.com, ~580 reviews of the adult Oversized Quad, Nov 2022 — same frame family): the recurring negative theme is the carry bag, not the chair: "Chair is well-made and comfortable... I took a star off because the storage bag seems cheap and flimsy"; "strap for the bag has already come off. Coleman will not replace the bag."
  • besttentcotsforcamping.com (independent review): "reliable, easy for kids to use, comfortable, and inexpensive" with the expected trade-offs — bulky when packed, heavier than ultralight alternatives.
  • No fabricated scores: the qualitative picture is unchanged — a solid, unremarkable workhorse popular by volume, not by enthusiast acclaim. The new data sharpens one point: the chair is fine; the bag is the part that dies.

Key Specs — enrichment additions (2026-09-20)

  • Weight: ~4 lb (1,814 g / 64 oz) per most listings; 3.25–3.6 lb shown on some — exact figure UNVERIFIED, expect ~4 lb (1.8 kg).

  • Suggested age: ~2–4+ with room to grow (per Walmart buyer consensus; Coleman does not publish an age range — UNVERIFIED).
  • Sitting height conflict (10.2 in vs 13.5 in) remains UNRESOLVED — do not rely on either number.
  • Frame: steel; fabric: polyester (denier UNVERIFIED).
