The cot is comfortable, light, easy to set up but it is so noisy that it will keep everybody awake. I took two of these cots for a weekend in a remote cabin. Two adults used the cots. Every time one of the cot users rolled over or moved, the cot made so much noise that it woke up people two rooms away (okay, the walls were thin too). The fabric is wrapped around the metal tubes and makes a loud creaking noise as it rubs on the tube. The noise was so loud that we laughed about it all weekend but did not sleep on the cots after the first night.

This was a horrible cot...Yes as everyone has stated it makes A LOT of noise when you turn over. But by far the worst is the legs fold under if you are not on completley flat ground. We went camping this past weekend and the tent was on slightly slanted ground...well about an hour into sleep I ended up on my head as I must have moved and and the legs folded...It was horrible and It is going right back to the store. I expected more from Coleman!

It is very hard to keep this thing in the right position. The legs keep wanting to fold in, especially if you are not on concrete-flat ground, and so every time you move in the night it collapses on you. I is not happy.

I think the cot designer should have to sleep on this. If he/she did, it would never make it to market it as currently designed. Ditto the comments about it being noisy. Of all of the camp cots I have ever tried, none of talked like this one. And the voice is not pleasant. On top of that, the comfort for such cots is below average. It is cheap and light.

I placed the order, the wrong item arrived much smaller. I then called and they reordered the item for me...the second time another wrong item arrived, finally they said there must be a wrong control number attached to this item, they said they were sorry but they could not fill my order because they could not figure out how to get me a Coleman Forester Cot (30"X80")that they have on the web site.

Do you really want to order this item?
