The Solar high is great but if you have short legs try before you buy.

I have the ‘low' but have never found it low at all (I'm 5'10).

I got a Nash Daddy long legs due to arthritis in the knees but due to a bit of medication and exercise can now get lower.

DD long legs is a great bit of kit. Ok one leg shoots out occasionally and it's reasonably heavy but is comfortable and I can stores buzz bars, bivvy table and other bits in when closed down so does the job also of carrying tackle.

However, looking at slimming down I recently sat in a Advanta Discovery CCX camo relaxa.

Whilst it doesn't have the hand wheels on the side to lock like the long legs and the Advanta high back it's a really comfortable chair.

Maybe something for consideration?

Would recommend the Daddy long legs to anyone though.

Has anyone seen the Fox highback super recliner?

I like the solar but it looks low and I prefer a bit of height. I'm also mulling over this at the minute to replace a 5 year old chub chair.

Edit. I've seen the Solar High chair and that looks better.

Low is actually not that low - depends on how high you extend the legs and how long your upper body is or isn't - I'm 6'1" and I can comfortably slouch with the pillow behind my neck in comfort; if I extend all the legs (on flat ground) it becomes a reasonably high chair IMO

Can anyone tell me if the height of the back is the same on both the Solar Low and High chairs?

Thanks.

I've got one from TFT which is basically the same!
It's a huge chair but I absolutely love it.

I had this but just found it way to big, ended up getting rid of it and got a different chair in the end bud

Was very comfy tho so no complaints there
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
