Amazing for car camping, wouldn't take it backpacking
Pros: Comfortable without sleeping pad 45F+Light and compactEasy to setupFits in even the smallest tentsHigh enough to store stuff underneathCarrying bag has extra room if you want to throw in some hand warmers.Cons: Carrying bag isn't durable(carry patches) so dont overstuff with misc gear eveb though it fitsNeed a pad below 45F or you will be coldI took this car camping, it's a little too big to take backpacking but it is a huge comfort to have.It's incredibly easy to set up, I timed myself for set up at 35 seconds, put away is like 45(extra time to cram it into its container). It perfectly fits inside of my REI single person, Passage 2 tent, which is about as small of a tent as you can get. (Only fits if I unfold it INSIDE of the tent)The carrying bag itself has extra room inside between the poles and all of that for extra gear, I crammed in a mini broom/dustpan, stakes and poles for my tent, 4 handwarmers, and a large tarp...That's kinda a lot. I WILL SAY do NOT cram the carrying bag as I did, I developed a tear that I noticed when I got back and I only used it once, so either something I put inside ripped it a little (like my tent poles) or I dropped it on a sharp root. Either way, the only con so far is that the carrying bag isnt durable.The first night I didn't use a sleeping pad, just a sleeping bag rated to 30F when it was 38F outside, granted I think this sleeping bag is really comfortable range of 45+ w/pad and my tent isnt really for cold weather either so thats a contributing factor but I woke up chilly even with 2 hand warmers in my bag. Overall it wasnt a bad night sleep and I slept fine otherwise, and thats pretty good for winter temps with a warm temp bag and tent. The next night I opted for a sleeping pad and it was very nice.I'm very satisfied with my purchase, our spot at the camp grounds was full of roots, everyone set up their tents and they were complaining of roots in the middle of their tent since they didnt properly check , with a cot it didnt matter to me in the slightest.

Easy, lightweight, useful
We're not avid campers, but once a year we go tent camping for a week. We want something easy to setup, comfortable enough to sleep easily, and portable/packable for our SUV crossover. This ticks all the boxes. It's remarkably small and easy to pack and move, and it sets up quickly. We had the earlier version from maybe 2022, and this new version absolutely does zip up easier, but otherwise they function equally as well. The new version is definitely prettier.Most important, it's comfortable enough to sleep on and still feel ready for camp activities like hiking the next day. If you're camping somewhere cold, you need something under you besides a layer of sleeping bag, because the air under you makes you much colder than you might expect. As a woman without much hand/arm strength, I struggle sometimes to zip the old version up, but this new version was simple for me to zip up.

Great cot for camping
Light weight, easy to set up. Sturdy and comfy enough for camping.It's a bit low and close to ground.

Not much ground clearance
I bought this so my wife, who works as a chef at a restaurant, could take a nap during the hour of closure between lunch and dinner. First, this will only work on a hard surface, the legs will sink into sand at the beach. Second, the clearance from floor to sleeping surface is only about 6 inches, meaning when the weight of a body is added, it can come within 4 inches of the floor. In a restaurant, the floor tends to be dirty between daily cleanings, so more clearance would be psychologically satisfying. Other than that, it's sturdy and reasonably comfortable. And very easy to set up and take down. Getting it in the carry bag is more of a challenge.

Very comfortable, easy to set up & take down
These were just perfect to get us off the ground and to give a comfy night's sleep (no roots, and no rocks in our backs!). We added our Thermarest backpacking mattresses & our sleeping bags and it turned our little tent into 'glamping'! Well, not quite THAT far, but these are seriously worth the investment!They set up quickly and easily, and pack just as fast. (There is an easy trick to folding the fabric to the side when folding up the legs.)Two of the reasons we picked this product were 1) NO BARS TO LAY ON! 2) No stick feet to poke holes in the tent floor, since the foot support are bars that evenly distribute the weight across the tent's flooring material.A bonus benefit to the cots is that you can stow your shoes and day clothes under the end of the cot, neat and out of the way. Also, things you want at hand easily in the night, like a flashlight can go under the cot near your head, easy to find even in the dark.

Quick, convenient, and easy
It's light, so isn't good for long-term use or for really heavy people, but easy to set up for sure! Very portable. Surprisingly comfortable.

Adore
I took this on a 5 day kayaking trip. So portable. So easy to setup. I just love this thing. Bought a second for my child. Good for car camping, probably not backpacking.

Easy to assemble and disassemble
This item is low to the ground, is relatively light and so easily portable! Love it for my purposes of having someplace to sleep at my parents' residence or sleeping outside. Good for my back. Strong. Long length.

Very good out of the box
The product arrived in good condition. There were no signs of damage and no missing parts. The instructions are included in the box and are adequate, but not ideal. The images and graphical arrows on the instructions indicate the transformation of the cot from one stage of readiness to another. The language in the instructions is rather spartan and — well — a very pale, distant cousin to the works of Shakespeare and Milton shall we say? For example, I doubt Paradise Lost contains anything like “Be reminded, Fold [sic] the leg tube from the two outer side [sic] until totally unfold [sic].” In any case, it truly is easy to unfold, zip, unzip and refold the cot! When putting the refolded cot back in the bag, it must be properly oriented to the shape of the bag, which is rectangular. It is not noted in any detail whether packing or folding in certain ways could put strains on the material and I am somewhat concerned about this. A cryptic remark in the instructions notes “Do not focus the weight on one side of the bed.” This probably refers to the application of force during the zipping phase, but I am not sure and I worry deeply for side-sleepers. Overall, while I am appalled by the very basic errors in the language of the instructions, I like the product so far. I hope to field test the cot very soon.

Slightly heavy - still awesome
Took this as my one “heavy” item on a backcountry motorcycle trip. It was 100% worth it due to the simplicity after long days. The looks of surprise and jealousy from the other member with a cot were hilarious when he continually spent 5-10min setting-up or taking-down his. I think I had one morning where I struggled and it took about 40sec.I’m 6’2” and 190lbs. It isn’t hotel-bed comfy, but is as good or better than the three other cots I’ve ever slept on. I generally wake up with back pain in my bed & was surprised that changing to this for a couple nights was an improvement.
