Teton Outfitter Camping Cot, Heavy-Duty Oversized Folding Cot for Adults, Comfortable Elevated Sleeping Bed, Easy Setup

Without getting into the details of why, I bought this Keton cot as a bed to sleep on every night in a 16' X 12' Cabin (with heat and air conditioning). I purchased the largest cot, since I am 6' 2" and weigh 240 lbs. Without exaggeration, I can truthfully say that this cot is the most comfortable thing that I have ever slept on in my life. Even the mattresses that I have purchased for my bed in the past or air mattresses that I have gotten for camping, were not as comfortable. I have always liked a firm, but not too firm of a mattress. This cot satisfied that for me. I did not purchase the Teton mattress, mainly because of complaints about them being too thin. I read one review where the person purchased two of them to get more thickness and comfort. Because of that, I had planned on buying a thicker foam mattress from a store in town, but in the meantime, I had to sleep on it, so I laid two sleeping bags on top of each other and laid down on those. I covered myself with a regular blanket. Wow! It was just right for me. The cot is constructed in such a manner that the strong cot material when stretched out by the cot frame is taunt, but it gives just enough stretch from my body weight to make it soft enough for me, while also remaining firm enough. I have slept on it for 3 months now, in cold and hot weather, and I am not lying when I say that I don't even want to get up, because I am so comfortable laying in the thing. As far as the construction of the cot and the room that it affords, I would give it a strong thumbs up. I love the rubber shock absorbers in the leg sections. That was a nice and needed feature. I read some complaints about the plastic caps falling off of the legs and getting lost, so I just used some black Gorilla tape to tape them on. The black color of the tape blends in with the black frame, so it is hardly noticeable, and those caps aren't going anywhere now. I have owned many things in my life that has similar caps that fall off, but they can always be glued, taped or screwed on. It is definitely easy to set up, just mind you fingers that they don't get pinched in the joints of the frame (I learned that the hard way, LOL). My only complaint would be that the end rails stick out past the side rails, and I walk into them with my leg sometimes. I am not sure why they need to extend past the side rails that much. Other that, I am good with it. In regard to the cost of this cot, it is worth every penny. I am well pleased with this purchase and will probably buy another one soon for my wife. All-in-all, I am going to give it a 5-star review. I hope this review helps those looking for a good sturdy cot.

I prefer to primitive camp and I typically camp wherever I am when it starts getting dark. For 16 years I lived in Utah and camped in the back of my pickup, an average of two nights a week for all those years, on an air mattress and a tarp over a PVC frame over the bed of my truck. I've camped comfortably in all kinds of weather with that setup. The air mattresses seem to start leaking air after about two or three uses and that was always a problem. I'm in Florida now and since it is winter, the perfect time to camp in Florida, I have been camping out again. Instead of an air mattress, I tried using two layers of 2" memory foam but I still feel the steel bed of my pickup and It is very uncomfortable. I decided to look for a cot and I found Teton Sports Outfitter XXL camping cot. I'm a big guy and this looked perfect. The price looked a little bit high but not out of reason. I ordered the cot and when I set it up, I was amazed at just how big it is! I'm 6'3" tall and 300+ pounds. The cot is 40" wide and sits 19" above the ground. It is long enough that my head and my feet don't hang off either end. It fits in the bed of my Ford F-150 with the tailgate down with about 6 or 8 inches to spare. It fills up most of the bed of my truck but does give me some room on the side to get in and out of the cot. I am always armed when I camp which I think, and hope, most people are. Some people were running their dogs about midnight, probably hunting deer and I heard some gunshots in the Ocala National Forest after I had gone to bed so I laid my AR-15 on one side of the cot and still had plenty of room to get a good night's sleep. I've had back problems for almost 40 years and I don't sleep well anywhere but I got a pretty good night's sleep on the cot and I think it would be very comfortable for most big people. I bought a 3" memory foam topper with a zippered cover for a twin XXL bed and it fit the cot perfectly. What did I not like about the Teton Sports Outfitter XXL Camping Cot? This morning when I got ready to fold the cot up, the top and bottom rails have plastic end caps. Two of those caps had come out. I found one and popped it back in but was unable to locate the second end cap, even in the white sand that surrounded my pickup at my camping spot. I contacted Teton Sports by email and I left a phone message. We'll see how they respond but if their response is anything like the quality of this cot, I'm sure they'll get a new plastic end cap to me in the mail soon. The only other thing that I had difficulty with was putting the cot into the bag that it comes equipped with. The bag is a great idea since I carry the cot in the back of my pickup over the highway and very rough four wheel drive roads to get my camping spots. If the bag was one inch longer, it would sure make inserting the cot much easier. The small red lever that helps get the top rail in place is a nifty little addition. Overall, this is a GREAT cot and worth every penny I spent on it and I highly recommend it. I will be spending lots of time camping on it and I'm sure this cot will outlive me. I will purchase the rifle sleeve and accessories sleeve that fit on each side of the cot. We will also be using the cot for our three year old grandson when he is sleeping over. GREAT JOB TETON SPORTS!!!

So, first of all: The cot is sturdy, it holds my weight very well, and it's comfortable. It also packs down ridiculously small - we're talking smaller than a rolled up sleeping bag - which makes it very easy to take on trips. My roommate's dogs also like to sleep on it whenever we have it laying out. I think they think it is their bed. However, two drawbacks. First is the weight - it's a metal cot, so naturally it's gonna weigh too much for backpacking. The other drawback is a little stranger, and it's only really a drawback the first time you use it. Simply put - The set-up instructions could be better. I had to watch a youtube video to figure it out. HOWEVER, once you have it figured out, setup and take down is a breeze, so it's only that first time that you'll struggle with. I recommend practicing at home before you take it on its first trip.

We've had our Teton Cot for several months and used in on a number of campouts. We find it sturdy and very well made, and lightweight for its size. It's big! Though the fabric gets very tight, it is comfortable to sleep on. At 5'6, my wife's feet don't quite touch the tent floor when she is trying to exit the cot. She struggles at times to get out. Maybe someday I'll try shortening the legs a bit. We really appreciate the ample carrying case with its simple closures. The only real design fault I find is a slightly difficult assembly, caused by the little red arm that is actually supposed to assist you in assembly. Without it, one wouldn't be able to get the fabric nearly so tight. And though tight fabric is really appreciated, that little red gadget is not. As a software guy, it proves to me that hacks also happen in mechanical systems, not just software. Like any hack, it does work - kind of. But it's awkward, klunky, and leaves you convinced that there must be a better way.

I bought this for my daughter because we are moving into a house one step up from tiny. She's had all mannervof real beds in her life, and this is her fav! She uses her Twin memory foam mats on top of it and snuggles right in! Okay, so it's not exactly camping, but if we went camping, which is highly unlikely, she could literally take her bed with her. Sleep over? Take her bed with her. Thunderstorm? Take her bed in my room. Friends staying over? Fold up the bed and put it out of the way, share the mats. And according to her I bought her the best bed she's ever slept on! She's always had comfortable beds, with the exception of one miserable bunk bed, which didn't last long. Pros: Kid loves it; Long enough for me at 5'9"+-; Sturdy; Portable; Stowable; Easy to set up; Easy to take down; Comfortable even without mats (according to my kid); Compact enough for a very small room; VERSITILE. Cons: 20 lbs so hiking to a campsite might be an issue. But not for me, because I like my AC, thank you very much!

This is my first camping cot. I've used inflatable mattresses in the past and they just aren't very comfortable and I don't like being on the ground. I looked at a lot of cots and this was the only one I found that offered larger sizes and was still reasonably priced. I was a little worried after reading reviews, mostly because they didn't offer free returns and I was concerned about having to pay shipping on a return. Thankfully, the product I received is definitely new and constructed properly. Set up and take down each take about 2 min and get easier every time. (LOVE that pivot arm!) The second set up, I struggled a little, but when I repositioned where I was standing and how my body was angled to the cot, everything slid right into place. I'm 5'2" 120 lbs and I got the middle size because I sleep on my back and my sides. I got a 3" memory foam pad as well. I tried out the set up at home last night and slept great on my back and sides! I can't wait to use it camping! It is a little taller than I realized and my feet don't touch the floor when I sit on it, but that's just a me problem. I really wanted something that would be up off the ground. It really didn't wiggle much when I rolled around on it, it felt stable and sturdy, but I'm still going to avoid flopping down or thrashing around on it. Boyfriend also tried it out for a night and found it comfortable (he's pretty picky about his sleeping arrangements). I know people aren't happy about the carrying bag not being zippered, but it doesn't bother me. It's easy to fit the cot into the bag and the combination of hand and shoulder straps makes it easy to lift and carry. It's a little heavier than I expected. There's one campground I go to that I have to walk down about 20-30 stairs from the vehicle to the site. I'm not at all concerned about carrying this cot up and down the stairs, but it's certainly not for backpacking.

I'm 6'1" 200lbs and the cot fit me perfectly with plenty of room to spare. I passed out on it super quick and slept well throughout the night. No overheating, no issues of anykind. Assembly was easy out of the box, and the first time you put it together will be the hardest time. After that, its a breeze. While the bags are a little puzzling, they DO make it so that packing it in and out is very easy. I'm not sure exactly what could be done to improve them, but something I'm sure as the design is a bit awkward. Definitely recommend buying some 'booties' for these cots as the hard textured plastic feet could easily rip your tent floor if you're one some rockier ground. The Universal size is just perfectly sized to fit into a Eureka Space Camp 4 tent, it gets right to the edges and is a tight, but manageable fit. (They'd be perfect in the Space Camp 6). I originally purchased a pair of these cots, and immediately opened and assembled one upon receiving it. It all looked good and worked well, so I put it away until camping time. Well a few days before our first trip with these, we opened up the second one and it had three small tears in it that were about a inch or less in size. I contacted Teton with some photos and the order invoice, and got an immediate reply AND they overnighted me a new cover which made it to me a day before the trip. Replacing the cover was very simple with a screwdriver and crescent wrench (8mm if you have one, but adjustable works). I was very happy with that customer service experience.

We received a defective cot. I will include pictures. The cot was packaged in double cardboard, but there was a small ding in the crossmember without the special red aid to assist with seating the other crossmember. That is not the issue, though, the cut outs where there’s a special adapter to fit in over the plastic and pieces in the long pieces of the cot are oriented incorrectly. I’ve watched a number of videos and I will put pictures below, but these cut outs are designed to be put in a certain way, and the videos that I watch from Teton outdoor sports shows that these are oriented in a flat manner rather than on their edge when you assemble the cot. There was absolutely no way that these end pieces were fitting in correctly. It’s disappointing because we were excited to get the caught and we bought the XL pad for it, but we wanted to see the quality of it first before we purchased a second one.

Excelente, resistente muy amplio, el único pero es, que esta pesado para el traslado

This cot has slept my big butt over 250 times in the last 2 years. Assembly is easier than most. The first few times is a bit tough, just use the pivot arm. After 10-12 times of use, the material softens up and its easier to get that final corner. The universal is extra wide and extra long compared to the adventurer but holds the same weight as far as specs go. I have had to tighten the screws a few times on the arms, but that is very small maintenance and light work. All in all the cot has not failed me, i use it 3 times a week, sometimes more.

This is a great , well built cot and I would suggest anyone looking for a cot to seriously look at this one. I love its size and easily assembled design. The cot weights a bit and even more comfortable with a comfort lite or pad to act as a cushion. Even on its own its a very comfortable cot. This is a lot nicer then the air mattress I had before.

Perfecto!! He tenido catres plegables SwissArmy, Coleman igual de buenos. El tamaño es muy bueno, pero así se pidió (también está en tamaño estándar). Lo q es extraordinario, es el pivote rojo para facilitar el armado. Después de años batallando al armar el último (4to) enganche, nunca me imagine lo sencillo q es con el pivote rojo q agregaron a la estructura. 👌 No olviden NO sentarse en los largueros del marco entre las patas de los extremos y las centrales. No está diseñado para eso, Y SE PUEDE DOBLAR. En una temporada de cacería vi eso con un catre (no recuerdo la marca). 👍

La marca es buena tuve la suerte de usar uno de un amigo y decidí comprar uno para mí ... La suerte no fue la misma, mi producto llego sucio y sin calidad como si fuera de segunda mano, haría la devolución sin embargo correr con los gastos adicionales me lo prohibió
