My son loves the S36 I had off you Ben, I’ve still not decided if I want to swap it with him for my xr36 pro, it’s a great box. Brilliant review, keep up the good work 👍🖐
Great review as always Ben. I've just picked up a good, used condition S36 Lime for £175. Give it 12 months and this new XR36 will be the next upgrade box I'll be looking for.
What a box that is it looks stunning the colours are amazing maybe we all could do with lightening our gear the h frame is a very good idea maver have been doing them for ages so you can add or take away as you please it looks a winner to me Ben .
@@Angling4U I'm the same I buy everything that comes on the market I can't get my car in the garage.as I see it you only live once us tackle tarts must stick together lol.
Hi there Ben , the first section under the seat, which some think is no use, will except the matrix winder trays perfectly, I put a bit of velcro on mine so it won’t budge, great use of space 👍
This box is really a good innovative concept. Very stable with D36 and wide H frame. Easy to set up in water in most situations. Easy to store once dismantled. The patented platform mecanism is good but the handle is sometimes difficult to pull before sliding. Any piece of advice will be appreciated. Greetings from France.
Nice one mate.. covered pretty much everything there including problems many other anglers have especially too much tackle lol 😂😂 (myself included, always take more than I need)…
Looking to buy my first ever seatbox and this looks just about perfect for my needs as a pleasure angler. Does the model featured differ in any way to the 2002 versions currently on sale?
My first reaction is to run to the shop to get one of these ligth en sturdy s36 boxes. But .... there is always a but .. haha, then I have to replace all my 30mm gear (wich I have now) for the 36mm to fit these legs. With inserts you can make the rests smaller to fit but not bigger !
Nice looking box, and yes the black legs look better than the silver ones It Will be interesting what the foot plate catch is like after it is blathered in mud Also, does the front of the H frame rub on the back of your legs when sat on it? Looks awkward to me
Ben comparing it with the weight of your old RIve box would you say this is much lighter? I have a Rive and its killing me weight wise, great kit but too heavy and I was looking at this box? Thanks Griffo
excellent mate, I've been looking for a new box for a while, preferably one where I can take the foot plate off, I feel like they make me too high and most places I fish have proper flat platforms anyway, ..how much are they though, I don't think I caught that though?
I bought one from the big tackle shop at donny and told them that your review helped me make my mind up to buy one mate, he did say that they def see an effect when you've reviewed stuff so keep up the good work
Hello Ben , looking at getting this seatbox. I just wondering how stable it is on a trolly or barrow? Does the foot plate flex when closed up and would it cause any problems been on a trolly or barrow. Any info would be much appreciated, chris
nice video Ben, it also looks a lovely box, i do have one concern does the frame (by the seat) rub on the back of the legs it looks to be protruding an awful lot.
matrix xr36 comp 16.6 KG -- matrix s36 - 18.5 KG ----- Preston inception hframe sl30 - 11.75 KG . The map H30 Lite = 9kg. Of course all of these boxes will add weight if you add stuff to it but these are listed weights as standard fittings from new. If you want a much lighter h frame than say the s36 (i do the s36 is so heavy) I would suggest the preston or the map.

That is awesome! So glad hope he gets many years out of it. XR pro is a great box

Great video mate 👍🎣💪
Thanks 👍
I reckon they would do well offering this without the platform as a stool type only option

for the 36mm to fit these legs. With inserts you can make the rests smaller to fit but not bigger !
Yeah the only problem I bit the bullet a few years back to 36mm never looked back
Hi Ben,
Nice presentation.
When you are planning to review Preston absolute 36 feeder chair.
Best Regards
Very soon!
Nice looking box, and yes the black legs look better than the silver ones
It Will be interesting what the foot plate catch is like after it is blathered in mud
Also, does the front of the H frame rub on the back of your legs when sat on it? Looks awkward to me
no not really it will never move I will adjust from the bottom legs. But i will do a long term test

Miles lighter

Glad I could help £500ish bud

Yes it fits on the barrow. Have a look on the angling 4 u facebook as there is a bundle deal fishing tackle & bait are doing ATM

Having used the newer Maps I agree
which one do you prefer? This one, or MAP H36 lite seat box? Thank you
The Map better seat
I expect the 10% discount at Tackle & Bait had something to do with it too LOL
LOL would of been good bought it 2 weeks before
Nice box Ben 17 kg that’s light for the price footplate catch looks a bit flimsy like but might just be me
nah solid as a rock matrix boxes always are especially with me sat on it lol
Hey dont fit on a matrix 4 WHEEL TRANSPORTER ??👊
we will see lol i will make it fit
Get the map h30 you save £150 and its a lighter box
Sorry to dis h frames ben but alot of them have a lot of draws in and end up being very heavy when filled with gear
Yeah but i got it to carry less gear fits everything i need in it. Personally I would of got the pro if i needed the space
What seat box is better the xr36 comp or the sr36 comp?
depends what you want if your week on week matches properly the pro
Ben, do you want to sell the box, interested party😁
went ages ago bud. ta though
