Soooo happy my Wynnchester Adventure bedroll arrived today. Will post pics when it's up. I did unroll in living room, it looks well made and very roomy. Weekend overnight me thinks if the weather holds.

Can't wait see the pictures it looks a fantastic bit of kit. In your initial impression is it as heavy as people say???

Yeah it's 3.8kg but it's your one stop sleeping under canvas shop. The polish lavvu is just as heavy but not as compact when rolled up.

Still saving my pennies for one. Lovely bit of kit, tempted to have a clear out to raise a bit more...filled with envy! Enjoy!

No affiliation with anyone, but your review will be picked up by google searches if you edit your post title.

I'd really like one, but I don't like creatures crawling about me. I picked up my trousers off the floor the other morning to have a big spider scuttle out. Put them on, got paranoid, took them off and shook them to find another two smaller ones run out. I've even gone for the old wives tale of conkers in each room. Might be BS, but I haven't seen a spider since.

Yeah, I'm afraid the conkers thing is nonsense. It doesn't work. Spiders are not bothered at all by conkers.

Like many others I'll be waiting for your views/ comments with interest, I've just started using the Czech bedroll which I'm loving but covet the idea of a Wynnchester (although I liked the look of their earlier version better).

Can you post the 'packed' size for us please?

Many Thanks
Steve

is that 100mm the dimension on teh inside? I have very wide sholders, and stuggle to find sleeping bags to fit, so would not want to spend that amount of wedge..... then find i dont fit..

The Check bed roll is too small for me really and I cant do that zip up properly.....as soon as I move it un zips

IFRC the Czech bedroll is 75cm (external width) so it is as wide as the narrowest part of the Wynnchester, so it might fit you better Stu.

Sorry for the poor pictures, but it was 05:30 in the morning. Very good night sleep, slight condensation on inside, but still okay, was loads of room to fit my bag in also, so very pleased. 😆
