OK so after having 2 avid beds and them both breaking after a few years I am on the look out for something better!
Benchmark is great comfort best night sleep I've had but I fish 2 3 times a week and it did not last 3 years. The frame has snapped! I weigh 15 stone.
So looking at the recommendations solar seems to come top. Is there anything better ?
Comfortable and light no matter cost.

Saw a guy taking one back to the shop last week with the frame snapped. This wasn't at a joint or weld either middle of one of the cross bars.

Solar Ch08 is a top bed for its price, not the lightest but not very heavy either (10.2kg)
Also check out the new Solar undercover camo pro 8.7kg

If you are 15 stone 100% go for the CH08, you will not find a better built bed in that price range in fact it is a better bed than many that cost + 300/400.
I have looked at all those light -8 kg beds imo they are all worthless and not comfortable, 10.2 kg of the CH08 is not that heavy but of a different level of quality

Looking for a whole system setup so would that be the sp c tech system? Or is that different to the ones you guys mention ?

For me the mattress on the CH08 felt better than on the Sp c tech (less hard) but that's just personal, build quality is top on the Sp c-tech but also on the CH08, for me the extra price is not worth the spc- tech compared to the CH08, the Sp c-tech is also heavier.
Both are actually non sleep systems because the sleeping bag is not zipped to the bedchair, the only one that is a real sleep system is the undercover camo pro

Personally I will not buy a system as I prefer separates, any bedchair I get will have a sim on it, a tech lite bag and cotswold cover for when really cold as I'm old and feel the cold now.

The avid is 450 and not up the mark not sure a 200 bed would be?
