Chippie81 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 Hi everyone. Im looking to pick your Brains I’m looking to get a bed chair but I’m 6ft 7 and am concerned about the length of beds. I’m currently using an old army folding bed which has seen better days. Does anyone know of any beds that are longer everything I seem to find is around the 2m mark. Which is not much good as I’m around 2m in height. Quote
dayvid Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 Wychwood Tactical Flatbed .....2150mm Roughly 6 inches longer than 2m B.C. 1 Quote

Chippie81 Posted February 20, 2018 Author Report Posted February 20, 2018 Looks a nice bed as well. You both use 1? Wasn't looking at spending as much as the Nash really. Had around a £150 budget in mind. Quote

Expand I use the smaller version, it's my best purchase of the year, very light... You sound like a big fella.... I'm 14st and the smallest one takes my weight no prob. The way they are put together means there is little if no sagging. A fairly stiff bed , which I prefer. A 1inch memory foam mattress topper (when it's colder weather) for around £15 of the Bay and you've got the equivalent of some very overpriced beds. Quote

It looks like Angling Direct have reduced their prices to bring them more or less in line with Cyprinus . I guess that Cyprinus only deal online , so I might be off to A.D. to " have a bit of a lie down " . B.C. 1 Quote

Expand They are decent beds mate, mine was recommended on here Yonny and Greeksi gave me a nod on it. I was prepared to compromise on comfort for weight, but no need to, slept fine on mine. I think once you pick one up you'll be sold bud......... Anyone looking for "hotel" comfort, shouldn't be out on the bank in the first place imo.. Enjoy your 40 winks mate yonny and crusian 1 1 Quote

Chippie81 Posted February 21, 2018 Author Report Posted February 21, 2018 Not after hotel comfort by any stretch of the imagination. Just a bed that’s long enough so I don’t have to lay curled up all night. When the design fishing gear they don’t have tall blokes like me in mind. Mind you done hotel beds aren’t big enough either 🤣 B.C. 1 Quote

Expand Tackle Discounts were out of stock when I needed one, they often are, but worth waiting for if you're in no rush. I needed one pronto but even at full price the Wychwood at 90 odd quid is a bargain compared to the next lightest (Trakker RLX Superlite @ £180!!!!). crusian 1 Quote
Chippie81 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Report Posted February 25, 2018 I’m really impressed with the look of the wychwood. I think I will be treating myself on payday to 1. Thanks for the help 👍🏻 Quote
