Default Seatboxes

I am looking for a decent seatbox with slide-away footplate and suited to pole fishing. I weigh about 16 stone so need something strong but also light.I would like the box to have a deep bottom section, square section telescopic legs, and a pole seat. At present I'm looking at Prestons On-boxes but am also very impressed by the look of PlattForms series 6, although I have only seen pictures of them. I fish mostly canals and club stillwaters never rivers.

Your advice would be much appreciated.tag.( Manchester)

The Plattforms boxes are the best engineered of all boxes, theres nothing to break on them not seen a series 6, there may be one or two new boxes about to hit the market durng the early part of 2007 so it may just be worth waiting and having a look.
