Kamp-Rite Tent Cot Double Tent Cot (Green) Review

For those whom are considering buying this product-you don't need another review that praises the ingenuity of the Tent Cot so I'll just give you the gripes.

1. Should have included a rainfly
For heaven's sake I could see sunlight through the sewn seams of the roof of the tent which were not taped.A rain fly should not be considered an accessory!!!!!!!!!Yes, I ordered one today.

2.The grommets that secure the poles (you insert the poles in these gromments at either end of the tent roof) for the roof were offset from the center of the strap making it difficult to insert the end of the poles.Quality control problem?

3. The roof would have been better (in my opinion) as a noseeem roof WITH A RAINFLY INCLUDED!!!!!!!!!

4. The instructions are terrible. The setup is simple if you have done it once or twice or have seen it done. Try to figure out the simple setup from the enclosed crude instructions and you will wonder how they can engineer such a great product and stop the process when they got to the instructions-typical old school engineers.

5. No UV protection for the fabric expecially for the rainfly (poor show). $13.00 for a bottle of 333 UV did the trick.

6. At 40+ pounds I would still be tempted to backpack this in for short trails (no ground sheet, mat, stakes, fly weight) but it is so wide. If they had a couple/decouple in the main tubes so you could fold it in half-that would be the ticket!!!!!!!

again a great product but it could be so much more with these little extras.

hope this helps

This would have been a 4 star product if it were not for the above issues.

for what is worth....

Kamp-Rite Oversize Tent Cot Review

I'm 6'-1, 205 pounds and 63 years.Took it to my deer lease for a tryout.
My inflated air mattress went in easily from either end flap.The tent is well ventilated, and it's easy to control the ventilation with the four flaps over the mesh openings.The double zippers on the mesh and the covering flaps are convenient.There is plenty of room for storage of personal items [clothing, shoes, toiletry kit, etc.] at the head and the foot, plus the convenient overhead pockets for watches, lights, billfold, keys.Easy to set up by laying it on its side while unfolding the leg supports and securing the straps.Hardest part [requiring some strength]is getting the shock-cord poles arched in place to create the domed top.But having the dome is very worthwhile, as you can sit up with full headroom while changing clothing or whatever.It's a well designed product with more room than expected.Slept like a baby!

Product Description:
If you've done a fair amount of camping, you know that sleeping on a cot inside a roomy tent is far more comfortable than sleeping on the ground. Now you can combine both luxuries with the oversize Kamp-Rite tent cot, a fully framed and enclosed cot with nylon sides and tie-up no-see-um mesh doors and windows--just like a personal tent. The legs of the cot are suspended a full 11 inches off the ground, keeping you away from moisture, snakes, and rodents, so you needn't worry about waking up with a mouse inside your sleeping bag. More significantly, the cot is roomy and comfortable, with plenty of space to stretch out and sleep in style. (The oversize version offers 12 inches of additional headroom compared to the original tent cot, with extra elbow room on the sides as well.) Simply situate the tent cot on any piece of level ground, toss in your favorite sleeping bag or blanket, and you're ready for a great night of sleep. As a bonus, you can also collapse the tent cot into a flat cot orientation, letting you take full advantage of the sun's rays on a warm afternoon, or you can convert the cot into a lounge chair by tilting one end upward.
The tent cot's frame is made of lightweight yet durable aluminum, with anti-vibration aluminum nuts and bolts that won't loosen over time or rust. The "tent" portion of the product features durable 420-denier nylon fabric with no-see-um doors and windows that open on all four sides. When the outer nylon doors are zipped open and the interior no-see-um mesh doors are zipped closed, the tent cot is 100-percent insect-proof yet still encourages 360-degree airflow--a must for warmer climates. The durable one-piece Cordura nylon-fabric sleeping surface, meanwhile, is firm and level, helping you sleep soundly throughout the night. And should you encounter severe stormy weather, simply set up the "total encapsulation" rain fly.
Easy to set up and transport thanks to the heavy-duty carrying bag, the oversize tent cot measures 90 by 40 by 32 inches (W x H x D) when set up and 34 by 7 by 34 inches when folded. The cot also comes in alternate original and double sizes and is backed by a one-year warranty against defects.
