Dear categorists,

I've recently had reason to consider presheaves P : C^op --> Set on a
category C with the following two properties:

- P preserves all small products (i.e. sends coproducts in C to products
in Set), and
- P is a subfunctor of a representable presheaf.

Is anyone aware of situations where presheaves with both of these
properties are significant? In particular, I'm interested in categories
C for which every such P is representable. The only examples I'm aware
of are Set, Vect, and any poset with arbitrary joins. Does anyone know
of any more?

Best wishes,
Tom Avery
