I tried the rs100 for a while and would go with the 150 for this

It was sent back due to an issue with the taped seams, and so because my chair wouldn't fit I went with the rs brolly in the end.

My bedchair is a wychwood tactical plus compact which is 200x80, but I never tried the rs150

Thanks David - so an RS100 with Social Cap would do the job however I'm not sure swims would be big enough so for comfort you reckon RS150 is a better bet due to overall width?
My Mk1 Bedchair is 'only' 800mm wide x 205mm long hence thinking RS100 might be ok. . .

I just sold my Rs100 as it was tight with my spc wide chair. No way you would fit both chair and bedchair in the 100 mainly as you lose a lot of space rear of chair and bivvy as your bedchair hits the ends of the tent (hope that makes sense). With the rs150 which is wider you can angle your bedchair leaving ample room for chair on top.

I had the extension also which works great but my new syndicate is raised and gets extremely windy so i decided to get the 150 also.

New ticket this season but with age hitting me like a brick (mid 50s - dodgy knees) I'm not sure I can stomach 48hrs+ in the Ultralite, primarily because I'll be sitting on a bedchair buddy for the majority of the session . . .

About to bite the bullet on an RS but just need to know whether I can get both bedchair (Mk1 SP C Tech - Standard Size) and an SP C Tech Low Recliner laid out / with headroom for the chair (erected and undercover) and room to spare for buckets and the usual cr*p. . .

Have seen both RS100 & 150 at the recent Big One show and they both look massive to me (larger than Tempest V2 Bivvy that I'll be ditching). RS150 would be the obvious solution on paper but looking at stats its only 100m deeper than the 100 so would the RS100 be a better bet to ensure fit for tighter swims etc whilst still housing my required furniture?

Real-world user replies only appreciated please! Cheers
