Searching for a new bed for my Girlfriend.

Can't decide between the Avid banchmark lite with the new heated bag or the new Nash mf60 indulgence 5 season sleep system compact.
She is fishing with me the whole Winter, so it must be warm ...

Any suggestions ?

Cheers
Calabro

In my experience such innovations (heated bag) can be a hit and miss. New gadgets often come with flaws that take manufacturers time to fix. Over the past five years I've had that with bivvy lights, sonars, powerpacks, head lights and cookware, to name a few. Avid has had issues with the legs of the bedchair and the strength of the frame. I assume they fixed that by now, but the question is whether their bag will stand the test. If it does, it will probably be the standard by the time your girl needs a new bedchair. On the other hand I've had issues with Nash too, so there you go

Heated sleeping bags have been about for long long time,just add a hot water bottle or two ,heat on,heat off as you wish.No need to be a pioneer with your cash

In that case you may be better just getting her a small bed and seperate sleeping bag then.

Can't comment on the bedchairs but personally I'd look at getting her a down sleeping bag, I'm sure she won't want to sleep in clothes so you'll need definitely need a warmer bag, as you'll know they do tend to feel the cold more.. have a look the likes of Alpkit pipedream range or some of the Rab, TNF offerings, expensive maybe but she'll appreciate it and in turn so will you!!
