Won't Last,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Big Cot (Sports)
When I first used this cot it seemed excellent. The frame is very sturdy and the cot was comfortable. If I had written a review at that point I would have given it 5 stars. But the second trip I took the cover burst like a balloon. Really, I could feel it give a little, and by the time I could get off it there was a 4 foot long rip. It was then I started looking closely at the material of the cover - it is some rubberized material with a few threads in it - not a real canvas. And it has zero rip-stop capability. I tried to sew it but it was like trying to sew a balloon - it just doesn't work. The Slumberjack people say they will give me a new cover, but they never seem to have one in stock to send (for 4 months?). Only get this cot if you plan on using it once! My previous cot lasted 8 years.
Update Oct. 2009: The Slumberjack folks were bought out by another company which may explain the difficulty getting a new cover during the crossover. With the new owners I was sent the promised cover [actually, they sent me 2 covers.] Used it one month long trip with no problem yet. We will see how it lasts next year.

Great, Sturdy Cot!,
This review is from: Big Cot (Sports)
We have had our Slumberjack Big Cots for about 3 years now, and we love them. They are sturdy, comfortable, easy to transport and virtually indestructible. (Believe me, we have tried other brands, which self-destructed at the first try. Not the Slumberjacks! They are still going, and going, and going!)
These cots are excellent for short or long camping events. For short camping events, the cot, a sleeping bag and your pillow will ensure a good night sleep. For lengthy ones (such as Pennsic) you can always add an inflatable mattress on top, along with a foam pad to avoid the cold air underneath, sheets, blankets and your pillow. It's like being at the Holiday Inn. Plus having the extra storage space underneath is rather nice. This cot is the king of all cots. I highly recommend it.

Very Good Cot,

This review is from: Big Cot (Sports)
As a heavy guy, I wanted to get a cot that would fit into my tent, support my weight comfortably, and help keep my non-waterproof gear off the floor. This cot fills the bill very well. I found it quite comfortable using just a sleeping bag as a pad. The under-cot storage is roomy enough to hold a week's worth of clothes and towels. The only downside is that it takes some strength to stretch the top to slip the end-rails onto the pins at the top & bottom.
