How do you find the warmth of the build in sleeping bag of the Solar memory foam sleep system? I feel the cold nowadays much better and I have a feeling this is less warm than my Trakker 365 sleeping bag.

In reply to Post #68 I have a Oval V2 and thinking of upgrading to this bed as cannot get on with the V2, system torestrictive and find bed is too stiff for me and get dead arms and never comfy compared to my old Levelite
Does it feel stiff or some movement in it?

Are there any front sleepers out there that use one of these?

In reply to Post #66 Any side sleepers who suffer from back pain tried it yet? Had the original c tech and it made the back pain worse. Does the memory foam solve that? Obviously to the people that had the same problem with the original bed

In reply to Post #64 Yeah pal the main bag is soft with side baffles, top 2nd top layer bag fleece. I can only assume they have done this as the fleece would warm up the cover of the main bag quicker? The bed itself also comes with a soft liner over mattress which is a nice touch. Nice and cool in summer and keeps mattress clean. Can be zipped off to wash etc. They have thought of everything IMO

Thanks, is the thin top layer fleece underneath? As the videos I've watched suggested one of them was.

In reply to Post #62 I have the Wideboy version. The main bag is smooth and although I only have size 10 feet there is plenty of room by my feet. Cant see size 12 being a problem.
That being said I also dont have my bags zipped up both sides. they are over sized and cover your body without it zipped closed which gives additional space. Great bed though. Even with memory foam on the stiff side which I like. I am 21 stone and it doesnt sag at all unlike my old nash MF60 Wideboy. The bag is also a lot warmer than the 5 season system on the Nash and the quality cant be compared. My nash chair the arms split as made out of thin metal badly welded. I can jump on the Solar and it wont budge an inch

Saw that one is fleece and one is smooth? Which seemed odd.
There's no tackle shops anywhere near me that stock them unfortunately, West Sussex.

In reply to Post #60 Haven't ever used a sleep system but my fear is also one of 'constriction' especially if you are tall / have big planks etc and are used to a bigger / more roomy bag. . .only way is to try before you buy I suppose . . .also dont like fleece lining in bags - smooth synthetic much more comfy as it doesn't grab you if you switch from side to back sleeping etc

Resurrecting an old thread.. Does the new sleep system have any more foot room than the mk1?
I have size 12 feet and occasionally sleep on my back when fishing and from memory the bag was always a little tight?
Also just to confirm you can fully remove the top layer(s) and just have it with the memory foam bottom and thin 2 season top layer?
I only ever used the actual sleep system maybe 3 times, I found it way too hot and there was not a layer to remove. Also found the baffle a bit thick and annoying!

In reply to Post #58 We have a **** off expensive memory foam bed, never any issues in the summer
Memory Foam is a lot different today to when it came out, today the heat BS is just that today, wasn't 20 years ago though.

In reply to Post #57 I’ve been looking at the sleep system also . As I’ve never had memory foam I was wondering if it was hot to sleep on in the summer , thanks.

In reply to Post #54 Hi mate, any chance of a update and your thoughts please?

In reply to Post #50 I removed the bottom shoulder baffle from mine, unpicked the end stitching and pulled out the filling. Much better.
