Sturdy Cot
The Coleman Trailhead II cot comes with the main cot assembly, two tubes used to secure the end of the cot webbing to the end of the cot frame, plus a storage bag. This product is HEAVY - the frame consists of square steel tubing and steel hinges, and the fabric is heavy weight. Assembly is a little confusing the first couple of times. Some people in the product reviews complained about it being difficult to get the cot's end tubes installed. It is a bit of challenge, but the trick is to slide the canvas on the side tubes up toward the tube you are installing to reduce the tension, so it is easier to install. Once the cot is set up, it is very stable and sturdy.Some people may find the need to put a pad on the cot to make it more comfortable, especially if you have back issues. However, size wise, the cot is wider than most I have seen on the market and it will accommodate those up to 6'2" tall.All in all, this is a quality product that should last a long time.When not in use, the cot folds up and can be stored in the provided storage bag. The bag has a tag in it with set

Comfortable and reliable for camping trips
I’ve used a lot of camp cots over the years, and this one stands out for its combination of comfort and durability. Right out of the box, it feels solid and well-made. I weigh 230 lbs, and the cot supported me easily without any sag or creaking. It stays level and firm throughout the night, no shifting or instability.The sleeping surface is surprisingly comfortable even without a pad, and the height keeps you off the cold ground, which is a huge plus on cooler nights. It’s also quick to set up and break down, though it does require a bit of upper body strength to snap it into place the first few times.Pros:Excellent weight capacity and stability (held 230 lbs easily)Comfortable surface for a night’s sleep without extra paddingPacks down well for storage and transportCons:Initial setup can be a bit tight until the material breaks inIf you need a dependable cot for camping, overlanding, or even guest use at home, this one checks all the boxes. Great value for a piece of gear that feels like it’ll last a long time.

Solid performer
Sturdy when set up. Works okay without pad, but squeaks when you move. Super comfy with 4 inch slim foam mattress, 90% of a good bed, long as your okay with rolling in place. You might get away with 2" of foam, although I'm not sure that would be easy to find. I find the squeaking pretty irritating. Solid performer, though you need some upper body strength to set up. The cross bars set the tension, and don't have any type of tool. I brute force it because I can, not sure what I'd do if I wasn't strong enough. Would be time to get clever.

Solid easy to assemble
Worked perfectly for my tent camping needs. I used an 31" wide covered memory foam mattress I already had, it's comfy. I'm a senior and seeing all the complaints about setting the end pieces, I used the rubber/foam HANDLE ENDS of a large wrench (closed) between cot and end bar to pry and pivot the end pieces into place. That avoids making scratches on coated metal parts of cot. Had the ends attached in 5 minutes. Refolding and getting into its carrier bag took a little longer...but not over 10 minutes. I'm very satisfied with price, sturdiness, and ease of use.

Great for camping
I returned my first one because one of the pins was broken. I received a new on the works great. Much more comfortable than sleeping on a matt. I am 6ft 220lb and fit comfortably

Sold cot
Had to use this as a bed for awhile and it lasted over a year and a half of constant use. Pretty good for the price

Huge difficulty for one person to attach the last crossbar but excellent quality otherwise
Strong and solid cot. Excellent quality steel frame and cloth.I should have paid more attention to all the reviews. In addition to the reviews I read, I only viewed one video which showed just minor difficulty in snapping the 2nd crossbar into place. After I received this cot and needed to put it together in a tight space, I watched some more videos. Most of them described a lot of difficulty snapping in that last piece, as well as how hard it was to take apart to collapse. Difficult doesn't begin to describe my experience. I finally used a hammer handle as a makeshift prybar for leverage, and even then it was a huge struggle to snap in the last piece. I don't look forward to trying to take it apart. I'm a bit afraid of injuring myself to be honest.I'm a 5'2" 70+-year-old female, moderately strong. I always dislike it when instructions or reviews mention that assembly would be better (or best) with two people. I don't understand why products intended for one person can't be better engineered to make setup easier if you have to do it solo.I purchased this to put in the front half of my 23-ft vintage camper while a leaky roof in the midsection is being repaired — a semi-emergency situation. Although I would like to fold and unfold it for sleeping because my space is so small, I can't do that easily enough to risk not being able to set it up each night. I am able to turn it on its side temporarily so I can get past it, but it's still an obstruction. When my roof situation is resolved and I can fold up the cot longterm, it is actually very space-efficient when inside the included canvas case. One other review mentioned putting it back in the case was hard to do. At first glance, that's probably true, but I will cross that bridge if I come to it.In retrospect, I should have ordered a narrower cot, however I will keep this. At least it's excellent quality, and will give me a comfortable night's sleep when I add some comforters for padding and warmth.The only other thing I should mention is that there are some odd scratches on the underside of the cloth, and some faint blemishes on the bottom of the carry case. This makes me wonder if it was a return, or if the underside scratches are just from the legs scraping against it when folding/unfolding. Hopefully, the scratches don't compromise the strength of the cloth.

Well built cots.
I have been looking for this type of cots for years. I had bought 2 of them many years ago from a Army and Navy store used, just to have them and it last for many more years. Thankful for finding these.
