Rio Adventure Camp Cot (King-Size) Review

Rio Adventure Camp Cot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I live in a dorm and bought this product for when my friends end up staying the night.I bought the Kingsize because I have several tall friends that stay over sometimes.This cot is a well made prduct and I would recomment it to anyone looking to buy a cot that folds like this.It isn't something i would bring on a camping trip or anything like this since it only folds in 1/2 (does not collapse to a compact size).It fits nicely between the head of my bed and the wall when folded.Also I don't know how well it would hold up on uneven ground.The frame is thin walled tubing like you would find on a beach chair.
In terms of size limits.It is long enough to sleep my freind who is 6'5".(i don't know if he hangs over the edge or not.My 6'2" friend sleeps comfortably on it.The weight limit says 220lbs, however i tip the scales at 245 and have slept on it several times with no ill effects.When looking to purchase it I was a little worried about the width (only 2 feet) but now that i have slept on it i have no complaints about the width.

Eureka! Camping Cot Review

Eureka Camping Cot

I am very dissapointed in the quality of this product. We purchased 2 Eureka cots as we tent camp several times a year. After using my cot twice, I sat down on the cot, and the center legs bent. We contacted Eureka, and they offered nothing. My husband improvised some metal supports to brace the bent part of the leg. The brace held perfectly, but the next time we camped the leg bent again above the brace. Neither of us weighs 300 lbs that this cot is rated for. I will never purchase another Eureka product.

Slumberjack Big XL Cot Review

Slumberjack Big XL Cot
Average Reviews:

The Slumberjack arrived on my door tonight and I tried to set it up in my tiny living room and ended up having to move furniture!The size is fantastic, it has plenty of room to sleep and flop around without rolling over the support bars.When laying on it the size feels more like a twin bed than a camp cot.

Pay attention to the fact that it is TALL. The description clearly states the height, but at 5'5" my feet don't touch the ground when sitting on the cot so getting out of it will be a comical event.If you are tall this shouldn't be a problem, but if you're in the Hobbit height category (like me) take heed.

The cot is heavy and while it comes with a sturdy case with shoulder strap it isn't the option for long treks into the woods.It also requires some muscle to get the cot set up.The concept is simple, unfold it and feed the two end bars through the top and bottom of the cot, but actually attaching the end bars is hard.I also think the plastic hooks will not last years as long as the rest of the cot.Once the cot is put together it is sturdy and will provide an excellent sleeping experience, but it isn't designed to be set up and taken down night after night.

The quality of the cot is good and the built-in shelf under the cot will be handy for keeping things dry, tucking a book in, or (for me) keeping a ladder close.
