Kamp-Rite Oversize Tent Cot Folding Outdoor Camping Hiking Sleeping Bed

There is no better way to describe it! My first experience with camping was as a boy scout, then I joined the Civil Air Patrol as a cadet, then I served 24 years in the military, and I still go camping regularly. We can all learn from both good and bad examples. It was always such a pain to set up and then tear down a tent in a flat spot so that rocks weren't sticking their sharp nails into my back all night long regardless of how large or small the tent was. Last but not least, I had to stand holding my tent up for almost two hours in the wee hours of the morning when a sudden, violent storm swept through with gusts of 60 miles per hour. After awhile, I felt the urge again, so I searched for a small tent to buy. For my aging back, I wanted something that would deploy easily, provide some more structure to prevent wind damage, and be easy to set up. In fact, I found this tent a few days later - Is the cot. In the end, I bought the product after watching a few videos. The tent had been in the box, so I took it out when it arrived. A lack of instructions was evident. It didn't take me long to realize that none were necessary. That's all it takes. You merely open it up, lock the legs in place, and then secure the fiberglass rod I only took two minutes for my tent to erect The cot was used as a shelter Here we go. This is all there is to This is the first night I've slept in it and I've been sleeping like a baby all night. As a sleeping bag, I used my best sleeping bag, and as a mat I used In addition, there is a handy tie at the top for attaching a light or whatever you like at the top dead center, so I sat down with my reader and fell asleep. The feel of the 'floor' is more like that of a hammock, so I doubt you need a sleeping mat, but you can try it with and without a mat and see if you like it. This tent seems to be made out of very tough material, so I can imagine it taking a long time to wear out. As long as the extra room fits me (I'm 6'2 and heavily built, and if it's big enough for me, most people will also find it quite In addition to the tent, it comes with a rain fly Ensure a good cover and a good seal An integrated carrying bag has been built. I was surprised to see how easily the carrying bag went on. In all my years of camping, I have never been so happy with a carrying bag that came with my tent. As far as I can tell, this tent has only one drawback, which is that it cannot be rolled up, should you wish it that way It is NOT very portable to take a cot everywhere you go. You're not going to want to drag the tent-- I can almost guarantee you that The distance from where you set up camp to where your cot is more than a hundred meters. Therefore, you need to keep that in mind if you're looking for ultra durable products It is portable. all this is sounding good to you and you still want to do it, close your eyes and act. The price is higher than similar products but it's worth it - Although this is the largest solution on the market, it is more than worth the extra cost. Yes, of course. That's why we love it so much! EDITOR'S NOTE My experience with this tent in the past year and my first three uses have convinced me that it is excellent. It was a rainstorm accompanied by wind gusts of over 50 mph that accompanied my last camping trip. As a result of A flye was in place, and all windows were zippered shut, preventing a droplet from entering the craft. Despite the cold, I had a cozy environment inside. One tent next door, which was also flooded, survived the same storm with no damage. My honest opinion is that the Kamp was one of the best Rite definitely deserves a keeper's certificate!.

Here are a few background details As a woman, I must say the following I am tall, thin, in my 40s, a kayaker, and an avid camper An addict. I had no problems receiving the tent cot- You'll just find it in a retail store Examples a type box, large pictures, etc. ), I had set it up - It takes less than five minutes to get outside without a This "oversize" (XL twin) is large enough for a camera bag at my feet, but I also wanted the space to carry 2 bags. As a claustrophobic sister and niece (instead of just using the screens), I am surprised that they would want to try it with the flaps closed, but I found it to be bigger than it looks from the outside and did not have any problems. The tallest I am is 5'9" & the shortest I am 5'5" Based on a 2-point scale I could prop up and read and change clothes in there comfortably with the 6-inch pad inside. My head touched when I seated upright in the middle, but there was plenty of space to prop up and read. There were books above my pillow, a large camera bag at my feet and a gallon jug of water to one side of the bed. Other reviewers complained about condensation issues with the rain fly on, but my experience camping lakeside in Maine in the rain was flawless. You can put the rain fly on and leave the end flaps rolled up for ventilation and cover through the screens if you roll the end flaps up. If you want, you can get a mesh hammock to put underneath, but I don't see the need for one - I did not need it to keep my rain boots dry. My father and I have been camping together for years, and this tent has a great It is located in the overhead pocket. In addition, the ends of the rain fly face the windows, so it is easy to reach up for flashlights or lip balm. The rain fly goes on quickly and stays in place. You can fold the cot up and use one of the straps that holds it open to hold it closed after you've folded it. Despite my best efforts, I wasn't able to feel them. Despite not having a second pad, I slept comfortably for two nights without it, but it was cold that way. Bring a second pad if you must. This is a good thing because the thing is heavy, so it's going to fall apart if the bag falls apart. You have to buy it for your car A camping trip. If your teenager wants to get out of the tent in which their parents or siblings stay, this would be an excellent option. All of my sons are now in their twenties and thirties and they all enjoyed There are only three very minor points that I want to address *Skip to 1 If you could add some lower loops or pockets for water bottles, it would be great- Since I am an American, I'll describe myself as follows - the cup It is my birthright to own holders! 1 & 2 There are two eyelets on the lower corners of the raindrops This is the entrance to Fly's house (I'll take binder clips next time to use here. Two bars are located near each other The long slings are held together with toggle clasps There is a bit too much space between the screen flap and door flap- if you don't roll them precisely, part of them rolls unrolled and flies Though none of the above issues really bothered me, I didn't find any of them particularly troubling. As a whole, I am very happy with Most importantly, DO NOT be worried about the bottom leaking or being in a hollow and pulling toward There are plenty of room, it's comfortable, it's warm, and it's This is all anyone could ask for!.

This was an extremely comfortable and easy to set up chair. Five foot ten inches and plenty of space to stretch I have plenty of room. There was even room for a clothes bag and some other items at the foot of the bed. Furthermore, I used an inflating sleeping mat which increased my comfort level. The experience of sleeping on the ground used to cause me hip pain, even though I was using my three. With the tent cot, it is extremely comfortable and I have not felt any discomfort in my hips. opened the box, I found a rainfly and a bag inside. However, the carry bag was far too small (maybe it could fit a In any case, I have a rainfly to spare. From the picture, you can see that I "modified" the zippered flap of the rainfly. This made getting in and out much easier by making it a canopy. In the Event of a Kamp There is plenty of room in the larger carry bag for the cot. I had no problem getting it into the back of my truck bed, even though it was a little bulky. If you have a small car (or not one with a large trunk), it can also be kept in the trunk. I cannot testify to the effectiveness of the rainfly since it did not rain. I am satisfied with my purchase so far. We haven't determined durability yet, but time and use will be able to answer that question.

In order to stay overnight in my truck, I wanted a way to do so without buying a truck tent or a heavy truck top. As a result, the problem has been resolved. The construction seems sound, but only time will tell what it will be like. This tent is easy to set up and take down, and it is light enough to be picked up and put in a The creepy crawlies are high above you, so it's nice and comfortable. No additional pad was necessary, the seat was comfortable enough on its own. It is recommended to purchase the oversize model rather than With flaps I always have a half dozen clothes pins available. They come in handy.
