I really need a decent bedchair sleeping system for around a £100. So far I have been suggested a sonik sk and a cyprinus but I cant find enough info about them.
It seems like the fox flatliter and trakker levelite els are the two standout options but there out of budget unless second hand. Does anyone know of someone who has one for sell?

Not a system but the Sonik bedchair is hard to beat for just over £100. I tried a few before Christmas ranging from a TFG for £80 up to a Fox for over £200 and others in-between and for me the Sonik felt as well built as any of them and I found the most comfortable to lie on. Bechairs are very personal though so best advice is to try and get somewhere to try a few as what suited me may well not suit you

Where does all this gear go

Tried a couple including the Eos and flatliner. Also tried a few Trakker models. The Sonik build felt as good as the most expensive I tried at half the price so decided to save myself the money. To me it is more comfortable than the Trakker Slx that it has replaced

I've got this bed.
Replaced the elastic with paracord and it's a really comfortable bed, no need to spend anymore imo.
I only do overnighters and weekends occasionally and it suits me fine.
I have the standard SK-TEK LEVELBED Code SKTCH050

Wychwood tactical is an excellent low cost bed. It's firm, but that's how I like it. Ooooh matron!

Not sure mate, didn't check, deffo not spoilt for choice though!
I was looking for the impossible, a comfortable bedchair
Still the same old designs, I'm thinking 3 or 4 inches of memory foam on a platform, proper bed style, bliss!

The only bedchair that's not given me a bad back is the original jrc stealth
I've had fox and Nash with the mash indulgence being the worse one

Had one of those myself pal, was a decent bed as far as bed chairs go. Have RH one at the moment, not too bad, thinking about buying a second one, was fancying a memory foam one, the Avid ones look OK. Knowing my look somebody will see the light and being out a proper bed, just after I have bought a new one
The bedchair thing don't work for me with the sag
Can't understand why somebody cannot design a flat solid base like a bad with a nice thick mattress that simply folds in two

I have owned and used most Nash , Fox ,Jrc trakker and now use the Wychwood 2019.model Tactical bed chair
I like a nice FIRM bed as I am s on.my back sleeper can't sleep on my side hence a firm one I also have the Trakker ELS bigger heavier
BUT Sleeping on the Wychwood tactical it feels the same
I WOULD NEVER EVER BUY anything to do with memory foam
AS it does NOT breath and in the summer total nightmare gets wet with sweat in frosty weather it shrinks and goes hard
Just my experience

A sleeping bag. Just buy one to suit when you're fishing. You don't want a 5 season bag for summer fishing!!!!

I have a old jrc extralight. I wont swop it for anything. Firm cos I've changed the elastic for higher grade. And use a self inflatable mattress from sainsbury's. I think trakker do one now. Mine was eight quid. Bags trakker peachskin very warm but heavy. And trakker cheap one. With the thermal cover and aqua pillow. AVOID memory foam its **** and doesn't breathe. The problem with full systems is the size.
