I get what you mean - I like the fox. Just not of the way they sit

The main reason I suggested the Quattro, although dearer than the x-pod is that I like to have the butt eye far enough behind the alarm to fit my swingers in. The x-pod is shorter although just as capable I'd imagine. My Quattro is a mk1 so at least 20 years old.
Had a sod pod before that and had it pulled over a few times when fishing down the margins. Never used any anchor back in them days so sold it.

Plus if you're the type of angler that moves it's possible to pick up the lot, all 3 rods, including a couple of nets laid on top and walk to another swim.
Although I have a mk1, I'd advise at least a mk2 as they have the oval tubes so can't twist.

The X pod plus has the extending arms so way long enough if you want the first eye behind the alarms, personally never done that, and use swingers.

The X pod plus is rock solid and fully adjustable to get the rods straight on uneven ground.

I like to have stuff as compact and neat as possible - trying to lessen the load aswell seem to take the house with me for a over nighter

That's why I changed to the Black Label pod

My mate had a Quattro a few years ago, I think when you mention it, it is a smaller version of it in principle, someone could confirm.

I'm in 2 minds to get either the a fox X or quattro or just go all out and get something a bit more pricy

If you want something light and compact have a look at a Cygnet Quicklock Pod, super light and folds down to nothing, about 14" long.
Wychwood Tactical Pod does most things I'd want in a cheap pod.
