Purchased a Solar Sp C tech wide a number of months ago. Best decision I have made. Definitly not the lighest on the markest but definitly one of the best built. I purchased the system and cannot see me being cold. Havent slept as well and best of all no more bad back in the mornings.

I've Got a Solar SP C tech system and it kills my back .. I wake up in bloody agony
I have an Avid Memory Foam System and that's not to bad

I have a Cyprinus Memory foam bed and have had to go back to using that as its the only thing that seems to make my back happy ( i would buy another and stick it in my loft for when the one I have gives up if I could find one for sale somewhere)

I think I can speak for nearly everyone with a bad back but what works for one person will destroy someone else

The Sonic version WAS ! the same as the Wychwood compact until 2019

when Wychwood changed it and NOW it as adjustable lumbar support and is a superior bed now

I've only just bought the tactical x but had the previous model albeit with a Cyprinus badge on... The new one is better, only slightly heavier and adds lumbar support, one hand leg adjustments and a nicer material all round... I added some pics to the review thread in the review section

I tried a solar c tech in a shop and it is obviously better made with nicer materials but 17kg for the system just doesn't appeal to me.

I've had about three/four years ot of the cyprinus one, that did start to sag a bit so hopefully the lumbar support on the new one will sort that out.

Having been on here a few years. I've seen this phenomenon before. I suggest it's driven by a very attractive price.
The more people that buy it, driven by price
The more people will comment on it.

And its common on here that people give a favourable review
Of the last thing they bought. Even if a few months later its up for sale.

So these beds may be brilliant. And very good value. But then they said that about the Supa Brolly 😂

I hear what your saying but the best bed I have ever used is the Trakker ELS no question

but I wanted a lighter compact bed to fit under a 50" brolly so I bought the 2019 Wychwood tactical X compact I always use a Sim initially bought for insulation and warmth but its more comfy as well

and hand on heart if I was blindfolded and slept on both beds I probably could not tell the difference ! both are lovely and firm and stops all back problems in my case as my back NEEDS a nice firm bed

I use a very expensive firm orthopedic bed at home that may explain it

I've got the same bedchair and by the sounds of it, the same back issues!

I've just bought an Andes self inflating mattress (5cm), £22, as I read about them on here.

Essentially you unzip the bag and put the SIM under the bag and zip it back up. Packs away with the SIM inside, to near enough the original pack away width.

Inflates in about 5 mins (less than), and is sooooo much better on the back.

Maybe worth having a look.
