Most comfortable bedchair

Is there such a thing, Ive had quite a few trying to find one!

Still following the old designs like sheep. Make a proper mattress ffs, folds into two or something on a frame with adjustable legs.

I used to work shifts for a lot of years and If i was not at work I was sleeping on the bank, or a least trying to, absolutely shattered, **** bedchairs

Fox flatlighter
Solar SP
Avid benchmark if you want memory foam
Trakker ELS

Now all you need to do is go to a big tackle shop and try them all out.

Had the SS3 then a SS4, through a friend in the trade, were good but not perfect. A mate had a Flatliner, which I tried, then sold my SS4 that week for the Fox.

The Fox was far more comfortable, for me, anyway.

Its lasted well, and by the end of the year Ill buy a new one. Ive got my eye on the new Solar after mates have raved about it ( just the bedchair, not the sleep system ) If the SOlar doesn't suit me, Ill happily buy another Fox Flatliner kingsize, a lovely nights sleep.

Mine is the standard width one. I've used a wide it before and didn't find it comfortable tbh. As for those saying it's not warm at all, I don't get it. Plenty warm enough imo

Ive got the avid memory foam one and its very comfy - legs are a pain in the ass though, shame no locking mechanism on them to stop them flopping about when setting it up/taking it down but once up lovely.

Is there any need for a bivvy heater When using a decent bedchair sleeping system like the avid ?
Until now all my night fishing has been done mostly in the summer months , but there's so much good fishing to do all year !!
It seems a shame not to take advantage of it ....
So do you think I would need a bivvy heater along with a the sleeping system ..
I'm not sure there's much point as I'm sure bavy's leak heat like a sieve !!!

Never needed one. Decent clothes and sleeping bad is more than enough.

No need when you have the right gear, plus bivvy heaters can be death traps

I use a fox flatliter mk2 and highly rate it , as do everybody else I know who owns one .

I do like the look of the new avid sleep systems and would like to try one of those . I'm don't think the sleeping bag would be as warm as the fox one though

And how is the sleeping bag in the fox flatliter ? Do you do winter nights with it ?
I've been doing some research and the avid is at least £70 more than the fox flatliner . But to be honest that's not much of a concern when spending 250 / £300 anyway.

What makes you say that the avid wouldn't be as warm as the fox?

Trakker ELS, Inflatable Mat, & a good sleeping bag

Those Nash Sleep Systems are garbage!

It's alright you saying that now. But where were you three years ago when I bought the poxy thing.

Are you sure?
