Camping Cot, 450LBS(Max Load), Portable Folding Outdoor Bed with Carry Bag for Adults Kids, Heavy Duty Cot for Traveling Gear Supplier, Office Nap, Beach Vocation and Home Lounging (2PACK Grey+bed)

An excellent camping cot, and certainly beats sleeping on the ground/iso mat, by a long shot. I spent 12yrs professionally sleeping on the ground with the Marines. An iso mat only goes so far, and if your like me, you're always setting up in the dark, and you always find the worst root that only a full size mattress could conceal. The mattress pad is nice, I've camped with, and without, and there's a huge difference. After a few days my hips started to ache every morning, when I woke up, not using the pad, during a week long camp. I decided to forego the pad due to space saving, but I doubt I'll do that again. With the pad, I slept just as well as I do at home, although my low standards of comfort are compared to an isomat on a root, so, you can always throw an iso mat under the pad of you want it's extra cushy. This cot is ideal, I'm 6'2, plenty long enough, even with a pillow. Super compact, which is important when the whole family goes, and as far as the space footprint, no larger than a standard iso mat, so it's not going to cramp your tent up any more than an iso mat would. If you're in a small dome tent, might be some concern with the height, and concave shape of those tents, but at 47yrs old, and Marine Corps knees, I am not crawling unless my life depends on it, so I get a tent I can stand up in. The over build is quite sturdy, I weigh 235lbs, and there's no concerning sounds when I get on. Just don't use it as a ladder, as it is a cot, and that's an excellent weigh to ruin a cot, and your tent all in one go. The look is fine, it's a cot though, so I'm not sure why aesthetic matters, but if it does, then the cot, looks like a cot, in whatever color you picked. There's space underneath for a small pack, your shoes or whatever, and this multi-pouch dangly thing on the side. Few small pouches on the front, one large pouch in the back, that would be good for a book, wallet, whatever small items you don't want on the floor, if your tent were to leak. I use it primarily for my vape mod, phone, and earbuds. The thickness is actually thicker than the standard military cots, and WAY easier to set up, than a cot that assembles similarly. That last end bar on a military cot is awful. This cot opens up like any folding chair. As with anything with a folding chair design, the fail points would be the little aluminum pins at the joints. Keep a 2-4 zip ties handy, feed 2 through the hole that the pin was formerly occupying, and you're able to finish out your camp out, without sleeping on the ground. Highly recommend this one.

This has a comfortable pad that comes with it, but if you’re over 150 pounds, you’ll want to add a sleeping bag or something to keep you from feeling the support bars. It is easy to put together and break down. It seems sturdy when you’re lying on it. Twin sheets ‘fit’ the cot good enough. Overall I’d purchase it again if needed.

This is a beast but in a small package! It's not overly heavy or awkward to carry. It can pack up super easily for camping or travel. Very comfy and it keeps you off the ground. Just open bag and set it up in less than five minutes, super easy!!

Eazy to set up, sturdy, works great. Downside for me is that the “mattress” comes vacuum packed, and doesn’t expand much when opened. A queen size comforter would be thicker and provide more cushion.

This was perfect for my needs. It's lightweight and literally takes only a few seconds to fold it out. It is a nice size and very compact when stored. Great price as well! I found it very comfortable, however if you are a large person, you may find it a bit narrow.

Really nice cot.

So comfy and sturdy. It's easy to set up and take down.

Pros - sturdy, easy to set up, mattress pad was fluffy, kids love them. Cons - they make a loud creaking sound every time someone moves. Keeps everyone awake in the room. It appears to come from the many places where the cot material rubs against the metal frame. I’ve tried to put baby powder in the crevices to make the material slip around the metal but nothing helps. This is very disappointing because otherwise they are good.

The ARAER Camping Cot Review: My Quest for a Decent Night's Sleep My history with camping involves a long, bitter battle with the ground. It's a relationship of uneven lumps, rogue pinecones, and a cold that seems to radiate directly into your bones, no matter how thick your sleeping pad is. I've tried it all, and the result is always the same: a night of tossing, turning, and waking up with a sore back. So, when I got the ARAER Camping Cot, I knew its true test would be whether it could finally help me win my war against the earth. The Trial: The Great Unfolding I've learned that the last thing you want after a long day of hiking is a complex piece of gear that requires an engineering degree to set up. My field test for the ARAER cot was simple: Could it unfold and be ready for me without an existential crisis? The answer, to my profound relief, was a resounding "yes." This cot lives up to its "no installation required" promise. It’s a simple unfolding motion, and bam! You have a solid, elevated bed. It's so easy that the real challenge was not overthinking it. I managed to set it up in under 10 seconds, which is a new personal record for any piece of camping gear. It's also surprisingly compact when folded up and tucks away neatly in its carry bag, fitting easily in my car without a single game of gear Tetris. It's truly a game-changer, providing a comfortable, off-the-ground sanctuary. The only surprise came when I laid down and realized my head was slightly elevated. It was like the cot was preemptively suggesting how many pillows I should use, a little bedside assistant in a world of uneven ground. The Verdict: The Honest Truth, with a Punchline This cot is a marvel of simplicity and a fortress of comfort. What I Loved (The Superpowers): The Instant Setup: This is its undisputed superpower. It’s so quick and easy, I'm convinced it could be used as an emergency rest stop in a zombie apocalypse. The Heavy-Duty Build: This thing is a tank. The high-strength steel tubes and durable fabric feel incredibly stable, and it supports up to 450 lbs, so it's not going anywhere. The Side Pocket: This small detail is a massive win. I could stash my phone, a headlamp, and a snack right next to me, which is a luxury I didn’t know I needed until now. What I Learned (The Punchlines): The "Built-in Pillow" Feature: The head end of the cot does not lay flat, which is both a blessing and a curse. It's a pro if you're a minimalist who likes a single, low-profile pillow, but a con if you're a pillow enthusiast. I just call it a "built-in headrest" and adjust accordingly. The Final Word The ARAER Camping Cot is for anyone who wants to say goodbye to sleeping on the cold, hard ground forever. It's an essential piece of gear for car campers, over-packers, and anyone who's had enough of a sore back from a camping trip. This cot even survived my war against lumpy earth, so I'm pretty sure it can handle anything you throw at it.

very handy for camping easy to open and fold

Well made and sturdy for the price

Honestly great for the price. My 13 year old loves sleeping on it. I am a mid-size adult woman and I find it a bit too narrow for my liking but honestly great to have for something extra. It fits perfectly in my 9x10 tent with a queen sized air matress. Folds up super easy for travel and storage

It’s a nice package and real easy setup, but it’s not entirely comfy for side sleepers like me, especially a big dude. Still pretty decent.
