This was a good purchase. The price was good and the quality of the cot is very good. I had no problems setting it up or taking it down. The cot fits well in it's carrying bag making it easy to store. I'm glad bought it.

After a night on this cot, I can make some observations, all based on first setup and first night of sleep. The cot comes in a nice carry case that makes carrying this item easy, but the cot feels heavier than it is. It is nicely balanced in the case with the carry handles. The zipper on the case is weaker than it should be; it needs a heavy duty zipper like high end sleeping bags. The cot itself is well-engineered and nicely built with no sharp edges. It goes up quickly and re-installs back in its case quite easily, although I would not want to do it every day. The cot is stable and secure for my 6'3" 185 lb frame. It is too hard, however, for me without a self-inflating pad on it. That makes it perfect. The Authentic Talatech 230 Thread Count Latex Foam Pillow, the Oversized 0-degree Hyperloft Sleeping Bag, and the Stansport Jumbo 3 Inch Thick Self-inflating Mat (not really 3") all work together to make for a very comfortable nights sleep. I bought them all from Overstock and love them all. I have no connection with Overstock or with any of these products. I am just a satisfied user of them all.

Lightest large cot i could find. Packed this cot into the Colorado mtns on a horse. Stayed 6 nights. No problems at all. Added a thin Wal-Mart sleeping pad for a little more cushion. Definitely recommend.
