Affordable Cots For Backpackers For backpackers who wish to elevate their sleeping experience without sacrificing space for their pack or back muscles, these softer cots are a great choice. Our mom tester loved this deluxe cot that is beautiful enough to fit Scandi design nursery designs. It it is also very practical with three mattress base heights that will make it functional until your child reaches four years old. Mountain Summit Gear Horizon Cot The Mountain Summit Gear Horizon Cot which is our top budget pick is a great option for campers looking for an easy way to sleep. It is easy to set up and a great packability and is comfortable to sleep on. The cot's wide, large base can hold individuals who are up to 6 feet tall and 300 pounds. Our testers reported that it was sturdy across all types of terrain. It also comes with a handy side pocket that's great for holding gear like water bottles, phone, and sleeping pads. The Mountain Summit Gear Horizon Cot is heavier than other back-packing cots is still easily portable. It fits into most camping tents for cars. If you're looking for something a little more lavish then the REI Cooperative Kingdom Cot 3 is a fantastic option. The cot is designed for two people and has an area for sleeping that is incredibly comfortable, even without an air mattress. The cot is quilted with a surface which is comfortable to lay on. It also has baffles on the sides, which prevent you from falling. This cot is extremely stable thanks to its heavy steel and aluminum bars which connect to the oversized, swiveling feet. Our testers found it to be easy to set up, but the last knob that connects to the main bar requires extra strength from another person. The Byer of Maine Easy Cot is an excellent option. It is very similar to the top choice in terms of setup and packing. It folds down similar to a folding camp chair, and the middle joints snap together easily and quickly. It's heavier and bigger than the Osage river model but it folds into a smaller carrying case that's roughly the same size as a camping chair's carry bag. It also has a larger sleeping area and a storage pocket on the side making it an excellent option for anyone in need of a comfortable camping cot that can also double as a bed for guests at home. The cot is available with a headrest attached for extra comfort.

The Kamp-rite Double Kwik Cot is the ideal bed for couples who enjoy camping together. It is easy to install and is ready for sleeping within minutes. It also has a number of useful features, such as a washable denier cot base as well as a head section that is padded and a hammock for storage. In addition, it can be utilized as a lounger and has different recline positions to provide a customized experience. The Coleman ComfortSmart is a great option for those who do not want a cot as comfortable as a bed. This cot can be set up in less than two minutes. It has a wide base at each leg that can be rotated to make it more suitable for uneven ground. In addition, it's very affordable and can be purchased with or without a mattress. While the Coleman ComfortSmart is a great option for car campers it's not the best option for backcountry hikers or backpackers. It's too heavy to carry long distances. This is why it's better for those who drive to their camping sites. The legs are difficult to unroll and feed back into the body of the cot for storage. Helinox Lite Cot The Helinox Cot One Convertible combines precision engineering with non-stretch fabric to create an ultralight camp bed that is both comfortable and durable. The tensioners are patented and provide excellent tension on the bed's surface without adding additional weight. The tensioners also prevent the bed's surface from becoming flat when it is placed on uneven terrain. The only drawback to this model is its high price. If you're a backpacker with an extremely tight budget there are other budget Cot options available. For mini cotbed , the OEX Ultralite Folding Cot costs less than half as much as the Helinox Lite Cot but is substantially heavier. The main disadvantage of the OEX is its difficulty in assembly. It can be a challenge for people with smaller frames to bend five leg assemblies. In contrast to OEX, the Helinox Lite Cot comes with a unique lever lock tensioning system that makes it easier to erect and disassemble. This lever is located on the opposite side of each leg and has a pivoting arm that engages with the top frame bar. The other end of the lever has a compressed tab that is pressed to let it go. The mechanical leverage of this mechanism provides immense tension to the bed without adding bulk or stress on the legs. The Lite Cot can also be adjusted to a different height using the leg extensions that come with it. This is very helpful if you're camping in an alpine environment where you'll have to be off the ground because of snow or uneven terrain. The low profile of the cot can be not ideal for people who move a lot in their sleep or share a bed with a person else. Like other cots, the Lite Cot requires some time to set up and take down. However, after a few hours it's a breeze to use and pack up. It's also extremely lightweight and compact for a cot, and can fit easily into the majority of SUVs, cars and vans, even if they are jam-packed with equipment. This makes it an excellent option for car and bike camping. ALPS Mountaineering ReadyLite Cot The ALPS Mountaineering ReadyLite Cot makes the perfect choice for those looking for lightweight, easy to pack and set-up backpacking cot. It is light and durable due to its 7000 series aluminum frame and 420D honeycomb polyester rip-stop material. It weighs less than 5 pounds, yet has a 300-pound weight capacity. It folds into a 7x17 inch carry bag that makes it easy to transport. The ALPS ReadyLite Cot is unlike other cots that require you to spread it out from the middle. Instead, its legs extend out at the bottom of each side. This means that all you have to do is spread the cot and tighten the straps. We found it to be one of the simplest to set up cots and set up, though its dimensions could cause it to be too big to fit in some tents. ALPS Mountaineering ReadyLite, while not as portable as other cots on this list, is still the best choice for backpacking cots. The wide feet at the bottom of each leg can be adjusted to accommodate uneven terrain and you can even sleep in the rain.
