I find the system super comfy however, unless the overnight temps are in double figures i need a cover.

I went for the bedchair option it is very comfy
I had a sleep system bedchair and found it was cold in the winter as I don't tink you can keep as warm as you can in a sleeping bag, plus its a lot less bulky

That's what I'm looking at as well mate, I've got a nice job light bag system. Assume your happy with it ?

I have the benchmark lite bed and paired it up with a standard size Techlite bag. Very happy with them.

Does anyone know of anywhere with them in stock?

I bought mine recently from total fishing tackle for just over £200.
First night on it last night and I am well impressed.
Very light and very comfortable. Only grip is legs are short so it's low, but you can just put them up higher.
Overall I would totally recommend it.

I've had the sleep system a few years, it's good. But swap the ropes for cables ties, saves about 250 g and eliminates all sag

Are the legs shorter than the 35cm stated as seen a few people say how low they are ?

I can measure them when home tonight, I don't think it's too short

A friend purchased one last year having owned the Benchmark, sold it with in months and purchased the Solar. I followed suit after seeing the his Solar and sold my Benchmark.
Another friend also had the Avid lite and now purchased the Solar.
All fish the same syndicate for several years.
