Naturehike Ultralight Folding Camping Cot, Portable Compact Backpacking Cot for Adults Camping, Hiking, Travel, Heavy Duty Support 330 Lbs

OK.. seriously this bed is amazing for the price. I'm 95 pounds so for me it's super comfy. I'm not sure about a 200 pounds human. It's doesn't tip, easy to build and it's super resistant. I will recommend this product in a heart beat!Ps.. I put a yoga mat for a extra layer.. just to be 100% accurate with this review.

I bought this because I was simply too cheap to buy a Big Agnes’s or Thermarest. Very glad I did. I set it up at home and it was simple. Some effort is needed to clip the second side of each leg to the frame rods, but not too bad. I’ve tried other brands and although a little heavier, it’s durable and more comfortable than the thermarest. I set it up in -10 Celsius and was worried the cold plastic parts would snap, as they are under considerable pressure, but it worked perfectly. I used a Nemo sleeping pad for warmth, since there is not insulation in the cot. An added bonus is the extra room under the cot in the tent. I slide my clothing bags underneath at night. Not only does that free up space, but adds a bit of dead air space under the cot to help keep warm. The only downside is sitting on the edge with feet outside the tent to lace up boots. You have to move your butt back further than expected or it will tip. All cots would do that, not this one specifically. It is a little heavy compared to a few others. I’ll carry it in the kayak and canoe most of the time so not a huge concern for me. If I was going on an ultra light trip, I’d probably leave it home.

Let me start by saying that I bought this with the express intent of using it for winter backpacking. I sleep great with a ground pad in regular weather to 40's Fahrenheit. Put snow on the ground and things start to get serious.It's sturdy. It's inexpensive. (comparatively) It's medium weight. (5 lbs is acceptable to me.) It's a little hard too set up, but not too bad, especially if you use the ground to help bend the supports. It opens up to a very reasonable size.I think the biggest issue that I have is that it doesn't pack down very well. I think the manufacturers are aware of this, which is why they kind of try to hide that fact. It packs down to about the size of a standard 2-3 person tent. So, be advised on that. Perfectly fine for car camping. I'm curious about making it work for backpacking.MIGHT do an update after I take it out. But all in all, certainly good enough to keep.

Item arrived in good order as promised. parts are of good quality. The instructions on set were clear with the exception of how to get on and off of the cot. Initially I wasn't happy with the purchase as the legs collapsed as I was getting out of it. It also needs to be on a relatively level surface as the legs will collapse if not level. The weak point is how the legs attach to the rail by "clamping" onto and spreading the cot apart as opposed to being inserted into the rail. I gave it a second chance at a following camp. After watching several videos from various suppliers and enthusiasts I found one that demonstrated how to "dismount" from the cot. I found that getting on and off, one should grasp each side/rail then place a knee in the center and stretch out on the cot. To "dismount" very carefully roll into the prone position and grasp each rail/side then raise up on one knee placing the other knee off the cot and transfer your weight to that knee and climb off the cot. Once I figured this out it has been much better. I have slept on it at 2 successive camps without issue but am still careful with it. I will say the cot is comfortable, especially with a camping mattress on it and I have gotten a more restful nights sleep using it than without. Sturdiness is a bit of an issue but I realize I am at the upper end of what this cot is rated for and it is an ultra light low profile cot. All in all for the price and that it will support just over 300 lbs I think it is a good cot.

Super light. Was comfortable for a houseguest. Assembly was difficult - I had to step on the angled part to bend the bar. My palm was pinched between two parts, and was bruised for days.
