No good for the nights though with that stupid built in pillow, I binned it off and got a Fox Flatliner and Ventec bag, best nights kip I have ever had fishing and do 7 nights straight through on it several times a year.
Only downside is the weight however, on the barrow or straight out of the van is a doddle.
Longest I have ever owned a Bedchair and had it around 4 years and have just changed the elastic for paracord.

Been using mk2 flatliter for last 3 or 4 years and cannot fault it. I have the compact and I am 6'1. Newer systems seem very heavy ?

I had been using the fox mk2 flatlier for the last 4 years and found it great pretty light weight for a sleep system . Then back end of last when fox released them the new flatliner sleep system . I decided on one of the 6 leg 3 season flatliner system after seeing one in the flesh and done around 12 nights on it so far and very happy with it more padded mattress on it over the mk2 flatliter . I also did look at the fox Duralite sleep system and that looked decent quality but was not quite long and wide enough for my liking . But if you wanted a more compact sleep system that would be more ideal over the fox flatliner sleep system
