I purchased two of these for my sons for Christmas to be used for boy scout camping. My ten year old was upset Christmas night that his was broken. Upon inspection I noticed that one of the "plastic" posts at the end of the cot that attaches the cross bar was broken. I'm not sure what happened to it but based on my 20+ years experience as an engineer this is a bad design that will not be durable. The metal cross bars will be placing a sheer force on the plastic posts. Eventually they will fail, probably sooner than later. The posts should have been metal or durable plastic, not cheap hollow plastic parts. I noticed other reviews with similar problems. I'm not sure what to do with this now. Might try to modify it. Based on other reviews, the company customer service is unresponsive. I should have read the negative reviews closer. I paid attention to the positive reviews but the negative reviews, if constructive and thoughtful, are actually more useful.

Cot arrived before promised date in good shape. Very solid construction. Despite being used 4 times, this cot still retains a distinct odor - probably from the canvas - hopefully it will fade over time.

The cot broke the first time I took it apart. It was east enough to put together and it was OK to sleep on but when I had to take it apart I had to use a rubber mallot to get the bar off the front because it was so tight. this caused the aluminun to tear on the bar that runs along the front. I may be able to use it again but I don't know how many times I will be able to use it before the bar breaks completely. Very disappointing!

I have 2 cats.
I had an inflatable mattress.
The two never really mixed, as much as they loved playing on it.
This cot was the perfect alternative. It was easy to set up (yeah, getting the end pieces on requires a little bit of leverage, but aren't you glad that it's not flimsy?), easy to take down, and easy to store.
Top rate!

I recently purchased this cot for my father to use on a float/camping trip. It worked out very well for him. He said it is very comfortable and sturdy, not wobbly at all. It's easy to assemble and disassemble, an important issue as we moved down river each day. It also packs up into a relatively small bundle. Note the word relative, while I wouldn't take it backpacking, it worked fine for the boat(easy to stow and lash down) and would be equally good for a base camp trip. Well made, we were very happy with it.
As a side note,if you are using any cot in cooler weather, make sure to have a pad on top of it for insulation from the cold air underneath, no matter how good you think your sleeping bag is. A Thermarest works great.
