Hi everyone. I've been looking to upgrade my bedchair.
I'm leaning towards the (Solar SP C-Tech Sleep System) !
but there is also the (Fox Duralite 5 Season Sleep System)
and the (Nash Indulgence Sleep System 5 Season)
anyone using any of these at the moment ? could you please give some feedback ?
Thank you very much

The two Trakker sleep systems look pretty good too. I'm looking for a decent 5 season sleep system aswell so I'll be watching this thread to see what people recommend as I'm 6ft 4 tall and 18 stone.

I don't particularly like the Trakker beds, but that may be personal. They're rock hard compared to my Avid. They do pack up nicely and are lighter and easier to transport.

If they rock hard like you say, then that might be what I'm after. I've got a very old Fox Recliner 6 leg bed currently, which to be fair is in quite good nick (just need to replace the elastic cords so one of my kids can use it).

If that's your thing they're good. I sometimes had actual bruises, and I'm not particularly heavy built or anything. Would definetely try them first though.

Thank you guys, yes ive read on other sites also really good things about the solar one and probably is the one am going for.
problem with this in my opinion is not having anywhere to see/try before buying.
at the end of the day this are all around 400£ or more and not seeing/trying always puts me a bit off

How long have you had it please mate and did you get it as a sleep system or bedchair only. If you got it as a system with a 5 season bag, is the bag any good. Sorry for all the questions.

Totally agree. It's the same with Bivvies and brolly systems. That's why I'm a bit reluctant to try other manufacturers. Always had Trakker in the past and never had bad experiences so likely to go with them again but then again, am I missing out on another companies quality product.

Thank. Definitely be looking at the Solar system then. Not too fussed about weight as no point carrying a lighter system if it gives you a crap night's sleep. I take it the 5 season sleeping bag is genuinely capable of winter use. I've got an old trakker fleeced cover (I used to use just this in the summer months) if it gets really bitter out there.

I'm same height as you although probably 18 and half stone...did you go for the standard or wide version?
I'm thinking about going back to a sleep system.
Thanks

The one thing I'm no liking on the Solar sleep system is that you can't detach the sleeping bag from the bedchair from what I've read. I may get the Trakker oval bedchair system as it's 90cm wide in the middle and the sleeping bag is detachable.
