Thanks for taking the time Stuart. I'm erring toward Fox Flatliner X System, I like that it comes with the Ventec All Season which has the reversible inner. I'm like you re fleece, much warmer in winter when you move about in the bag, but I prefer polyester in summer. At 94cm wide its between a standard and wide so maybe a good compromise.. hmm....bit of a cost saving too v Solar Wide & Ventec bag.

The bag fits perfectly on the wide bed. Bed is on the hard side if you sleep on your side but got a mountain equipment glacier 5.0 sim on it which fits the wide bed perfectly. I was contemplating the new wide memory foam sp bed but now not so sure.

Its all fleece Tony, you cant turn anything round and no different season liner to take out. I think im one of the few people who like a fleece lining. Warmest bag ive ever owned by a mile. Its big but no where near as big as my first ventec bag years ago and also more compact than my gardner carp duvet plus. It fits in my cotswold carryall no problem.

Is this bag fleece lined only or can you turn the inner panels around to have a smooth finish

Ive got the wide sp c-tec bed and the ripstop ventec xl 5 season bag and the head section dosent flop forward. Im a size 10 foot and theres plenty of room in foot section. I love the ripstop bag, best sleeping bag ive ever owned.

Thanks for the feedback mate
Ive got the xl Ive had it about 2 years. Ive not experienced the head bit flapping over my head it fits snugly over the wide boy bed chair
Maybe the newer version is different, I know it's lighter, on mine if you fold the bag back so it sits at shoulder height it always flips back over. If you try and jam it under your chin the zips sits on your skin, and it's too thick to fold under as it creates gaps at the side.
I'm thinking of getting the Solar SP C Tech either as a system or preferably as just the bed but the choice of sleeping bags for that size bed is very limited.

What really does piss me off is the zips come down when you move. the clips that are supposed to stop this are fixed on the top half of the bag and not on the bottom. Apart from that its ok definitely not worth the money tho
