Hi all,
Im looking to buy myself a new chair, and cant decide between the Solar SPC - Tech recliner High, and the Nash indulgence big daddy long legs?
Any feedback or recomendations would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards & tight lines Harry

I've just bought the SP Low and whilst I like it (in terms of back comfort compared to the Trakker Levelite Transformer I was using) I've found the following -

1 - The folded footprint is larger / more cumbersome esp cos it has arms
2 - Its significantly heavier
3 - I still haven't worked out the ideal leg extension for comfort on flat ground (its not aligned like other typical chairs)
4 - The fabric and surround 'eats' boilie crumb / dirt which worries me when its in the garage being stored - had a Nash chair (original Indulgence Wide Boy sub lo) with a similar surround and it got chewed
5 - Could be a bit narrow for fat boys - I'm 6'1"/16stone and its fine but just saying . . .

Other than that its a great day chair and the added lumbar / headrest pillow is a godsend, especially when in full recline / nod off mode - clip on man bag is a bit of a waste of time but others may find it useful . . .

I like the bag - I put all my non-fishing bits that I want to keep handy, in it - permits, rule books, mobile phones, power bank, cables, batteries, chewing gum, glasses / sunglasses cases etc...

Once the chair is up then clip it on, nothing gets mislaid (in theory).

I also find the bag useful - allows me to keep things like a battery pack, snack/drink, book, phone or other personal items that I want close.

I have owned BOTH and the Solar is streets ahead the Big daddy was when it was first released and after 2 x 14 day French trips
I came to the conclusion it was a waste of money and got rid reasons at around 16 to 17 stone
it was sort of alright for around 2 weeks never that comfy
but on the second trip the seat went flat and it was like sitting on a friggin board by the end of the 4th week !!! the Solar recliner High is in another class all together IMHO as I am to old to struggle to get out of low chairs and like to doze off in complete reclined comfort

Thanks for all the feedback its very much appreciated,
Looks like I will be ordering the Solar Solar SPC - Tech
I'll wait until the Easter break and see if there are any deals on it

Kind regards & tight lines Harry

Tackle Tavern normally have them at a good price plus get 5%off first order

If you want to save a few bucks, have a look at the Sonik SK-Tek Recliners.

I've got one, they are only suitable for flat and level banks. The extending legs slide back in under any weight on them. If the bank slopes towards the water forget it, your front legs are useless.

As others have said including me just get the solar job done

The Solar high is great but if you have short legs try before you buy.

I have the ‘low' but have never found it low at all (I'm 5'10).

I got a Nash Daddy long legs due to arthritis in the knees but due to a bit of medication and exercise can now get lower.

DD long legs is a great bit of kit. Ok one leg shoots out occasionally and it's reasonably heavy but is comfortable and I can stores buzz bars, bivvy table and other bits in when closed down so does the job also of carrying tackle.

However, looking at slimming down I recently sat in a Advanta Discovery CCX camo relaxa.

Whilst it doesn't have the hand wheels on the side to lock like the long legs and the Advanta high back it's a really comfortable chair.

Maybe something for consideration?

Would recommend the Daddy long legs to anyone though.

Has anyone seen the Fox highback super recliner?

I like the solar but it looks low and I prefer a bit of height. I'm also mulling over this at the minute to replace a 5 year old chub chair.

Edit. I've seen the Solar High chair and that looks better.

Low is actually not that low - depends on how high you extend the legs and how long your upper body is or isn't - I'm 6'1" and I can comfortably slouch with the pillow behind my neck in comfort; if I extend all the legs (on flat ground) it becomes a reasonably high chair IMO

I have the hi and my pal has the lo solar - there really isnt much difference maybe 5-10cm if fullu extended not that its noticeable imo

If anyone hqas a lo and wants to swop for the high let me know

Can anyone tell me if the height of the back is the same on both the Solar Low and High chairs?

Thanks.

I've got one from TFT which is basically the same!
It's a huge chair but I absolutely love it.

I had this but just found it way to big, ended up getting rid of it and got a different chair in the end bud

Was very comfy tho so no complaints there
