    EDIT - that being said, we're a 3 swag family..

    I've got a B&W Coolibah
    The boy has a techniice single, it's very very similar to the B&W - but with a PVC base rather than canvas
    we have a Techniice double too for me and the missus (for when we are sans RTT)

    The Techniice ones are pretty good TBH, especially for half the price of the B&W.
    Ahh.. Right... Yeah i was under the impression that they were made here but as you said I guess most things are import now. Mine is the deluxe single and I reckon it's pretty good. I've slept in rain and not had a leak and I really like the pvc base.
    I imagine the arb ones are probably made in China too?

    This puppies up in 30sec. just like an umbrella.
    Have to agree with this. I have a double and a single swag and like them. The double is great for Zach and I to share although he is now big enough for his own.

    Also have an instant tent. Thrown in the air and it lands set up! Wicked. Instant! Pouring rain? No probs. instant shelter.

    If your going to buy stretchers and setup the swag on top then great but if your rolling out on the ground the the instant win is a winner. Your preferred mattress in side. And it's a winner.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    My first and only swag is a custom one made by a bloke back over home.
    My best mate, my brother, his mate and I all got them for our 16th..
    All are king singles with a bit more length.
    Pvc base and 18oz canvas top. Mesh one end so you can tie it up and have ventilation.
    The mattress needs replacing but it's still in awesome condition..
    Cheers

    This is the latest style much better than those old "top Loaders"
    they would be great on a balmy night.

    If I needed a new swag Id buy this one in a heart beat

    My mate made me one similar about 20 yrs ago but with shade cloth

    I was more curious what good a Swag made out of shade cloth would be to anyone... at midnight... in the rain...

    (Yes,yes, I know I am being a smartarse but it's Friday)
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    It has a pvc base then shade cloth on both sides and canvas to cover the lot.
    When I did use it just put both canvas sides up like a verandah, never got to
    use it in the rain, but a very warm swag imo
    No-see em mesh was not available at the time ,not even thought of
