Hi F/A camper.

                    Rex on here has/had the "JRC Defender" I think, also have a look at the "Nash Indulgence Wide Boy"  I was considering either of these as I had decided my Camingaz Double Airbed £10 from ASDA, was not going camping with me, in the end I got two of the "ThermaRest DreamTime's XL" expensive I thought at £119 each, but they are the business, more of a sleeping system in reality although they are basicly still an Airbed based system, and also they come with a lifetime warranty, so will be good value in the longterm, they are designed to fasten together and make up a Queensize bed, which for me an Mrs Francais, will be better than two Cambeds/Bedchairs strapped to-gether, although I am hoping Rex may elaborate on that set-up!, as in the future I may have a go with the Campbeds, I notice our Boys and Girls in the Army/Forces use some pretty good looking campbeds, I came across this the other day when some filming of Camp Bastion in Helmond provence was being shown of the canvas accomadation they sleep/live in, could be worth finding out who is the manufacturer.

Airbed on one of these..very comfortable and CHEAP !

I've given up on airbeds. I now have these mats which were recommended to me by another member and they are fab. Very warm, no need for extra insulation under them. i just put a fleece blanket on it and then my sleeping bag

I've recently  also found that this

fishing bed is really comfy to sleep on i've only tried it at home so not sure if it needs and extra layer of insulating.

I am about to purchase two of these for the kids, the youngest has an Outwell campbed, but the bars across the foot and head ends stick out approx 5 cm either side and I`m worried about the damaging the tent walls during the night, as the wriggle. So the Outwell will be for sleepovers at home .

We also find the underneath space useful for storing stuff

Hi. Why not try starting another thread on this same issue but heading it 'FAO Hartford XL owners' as they will be the best people to advise you on how high a bed you can comfortable fit in?
