Coleman Pack-Away Camping Cot with Extra-Wide Design and Removable Side Table

This cot is made well, with durable materials and quality construction. It is an over-sized cot meaning it is both longer and wider than a usual little camping cot. This means your elbows can stay on the cot when you lay on your back! It is a bit heavy, but not more than I expected. It feels secure laying or sitting on it. There are no cross bars to grind into your back. (yea!) It is easy as all-get-out to set up and take down. Set it on it's side and unfold it and the legs move right into place. Folding back up is easy-peasy. There's a little side tray that you can put on, with the usual mesh cup holder and a flat area big enuf for a book and a light. It comes in a durable carrying sack, of the same quality you would expect from Coleman. It's very cool how little space it takes up when it's all packed up. I bought it to use not only for camping, but as a spare bed for when guests come. It's gonna work just fine!

We have re-entered the camping world as older campers....gone are the days of backpacking. Also gone are the days of sleeping on the ground even with a cushion of padding. This cot is a very welcome addition to our camping gear....despite the fact that it is cumbersome and heavy...once you learn the technique it sets up quickly and is a very solid support....no sagging....good solid support for very comfortable camping night in and night out. It's also wonderful to be able to get in/out of "bed" at night with ease!
