Any user reviews?

Looking for a flat, firm, tall-ish bed.

Have the MK4 Indulgence at the moment which is all of those things but the mattress isn't the most comfortable...the height is great for my back, (legs at a right angle when sitting on it) but could just do with a softer mattress.

The 6 leg flatliner certainly ticks the boxes although it is a couple of kilos heavier which is always a price to pay for a larger bed I suppose.

Any users have any feedback?

Cheers

Used to think my flatliner was comfy until i bought a solar c tech bed and the solar beats in hands down. Its the best bed that you can currently by imo mate.

I have the new latest model mk2 flatliner with 3 seasons sleeping bag since it's release and have been very happy with it used it all last winter just with the standard 3 season sleeping bag and found it plenty warm enough . I do use a couple of inflatable mattress under the sleeping bag as that is the only way I can sleep On a bedchair and haven't suffered any back ache at all been very happy with the bed

13 inches to underside of frame legs in and 17 inches legs extended bud. The mattress is very firm mind, a lot firmer than the flatliner.

anyone with one of these able to confirm the weight of the whole system please. It's not clear if the 14.75kg is for the bed only or with the sleeping bag included

Unless it's made from cast iron you'd hope the bag was included in that weight!

Cheers guys, was a bit confusing as on fox website, the bed alone is shown as weighing 14.75 kg aswell. Seem to have sorted a 5 season bag for my flatliter now so not an issue anymore

I have recently bought a fox flatliner 6 leg with 3 season bag, I've added an old trakker cover and pillow, I have just weighed this with my reubens and it comes in at just short of 22kg, it's the heaviest bedchair system have owned,, its also the most comfortable.. 👍 The bed alone is 14.75kg,..it must be why fox had the idea of stitching a handle to the underside for lifting once folded.. 👍

22kg is a lot. Is 5kg more than the solar system and 7kg more than the trakker oval, and my flatliter. I live in a flt so have to carry stuff up and down to the car so the weight is an issue to me. Hopefully tha 5 season bag comes woth no issues and i can crack on with that.
