Alright all
I'm after a comfortable recliner chair for dozing in when I'm doing overnighters for Barbel. I'm missing out on fish currently as it's too easy to get settled in a warm bedchair and not fish hard through the night, so the idea is I'll just doze in a chair with a cover. And no, I'm not just sitting out in the cold all night cos that's not fun
Cheers

Yes the solar ones spot on mate l'm waiting for a knee replacement so l sleep better in the chair and thinking with only doing one night at a time l might ditch the bedchair this season with struggling to get up quick from it and just take the chair just can't make my mind up about using a sleeping bag or just buy some sort of cover to use with it

Looks like the Solar then, cheers boys! One last question, any difference in comfort between the low or high version?
I'll be taking a bedchair cover in summer, then two when it's colder (one under me and one over). Will see how that goes.

Make sure you sit on one before you buy it. I was all set to buy the solar one when my trakker longback snapped. I really didnt find the solar chair comfortable at all. The back is really low as well so i ended up with another trakker chair. No doubt it will break too but they are very comfortable

The low is not overly low and as said the legs extend . For me the low is a very comfortable height. I'm guessing that for anyone with health issues maybe the high might be better. Whichever height you choose it is an extremely comfortable well made chair. Also having had plenty of different chairs I find having arms on it makes it so much more comfortable 👍

Why not look at something like a garden reclining chair offers a bit more length so elevates your legs/feet off the ground, I know if I'm sat reclined in a carp chair for any length of time my legs start to go to sleep or I get pins and needles in my feet when they're planted on the floor, they're easy to bolt back upright and some of them are decent, one I've got at home I can kip in for hours I know that's not the aim but might aswell have some comfort.
Something decent from a tackle manufacturer is going to costs a minimum of £80 upwards

I didnt find the base too low, just the back rest. Im fairly tall which probably doesn't help
You're right about having arms though!

You could go the whole hog and take a striped deck chair and put a knotted cotton hanky on your head!
In all seriousness the garden recliner is a good shout, even the ones with the big padded cushions on would be lighter than a bed chair to load up.
If I try and stay awake sat in a comfy chair I have no chance, but if I'm trying to get some sleep on purpose my head just wants to be flat. I'm sure you can get used to it though.

Solar sp for me as well best chair ive owned a long with there sp bedchair, nothing else comes close imo.
Garden recliners chairs wont be any good on the river banks as 90% of them are on a slope and you need the have the front legs a lot longer than the rear
a question for the Solar chair owners !
someone told me the fault with them is they seem to get wet and stay wet very easily far more than most chairs ?
is there any truth in this ??
when I fish on the rivers I fish on my rods under a small brolly on a chair casting every 40mins or so then reel in in the morning and sleep in my bivvy all day its not how I used to carp fish at all

Might be a bit late if you have chosen, but I ended up getting a Sonik Sks Recliner for pike fishing and as a chair when I'm carp fishing or day trips.
