3.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, big, but difficult to set up, September 5, 2007

I love this cot as much as my wife hates it. It's big, wide and comfortable...which is why I like it. It's also very, very difficult to set up...which is why my wife hates it. It stores and unfolds nicely, but installing the cross supports on the ends requires herculean strength. You have to pull the fabric tight and slide the supports down over a retaining knob, but it's very, very difficult to stretch the fabric enough to do this. I can do it, but my wife (she's strong, by the way) has great difficulty. it's impossible for my 12 year old son. Overall it's a good cot, but be aware of these set-up issues. It's the reason I dropped it from a 5 star rating to a 3.

This cot is comfortable and built like a tank. I saw some complaints that the cot end bars were hard to put on. This is true if you use your hands. Try using some type of lever bar or stick and they go on easy.

3.0 out of 5 stars hard to assemble for the first few times, May 7, 2007

I found it hard to assemble the second of the transversal end bars: it takes a lot of energy to overcome the pull of the fabric. eventually, two people with weight-lifting training working together could do it...
for the rest, it is a standard military cot bed: uncomfortable but OK for emergencies. I appreciated its larger-than-normal width.
