Title: cots
Post by: KillBilly on September 25, 2008, 06:33:25 AM: I just purchased a TentCot and I find it awesome. It is roomy & dry (with rain fly). It gets me off the ground, folds into a chair or lounge chair. It also folds up into a neat package that doesn't take up much space. I purchased mine for $169.00 with rainfly but not through Kamp-rite. Take a look if you are considering a cot.

Here is the link to Gander Mountain where I purchased mine. There is one size smaller and there is also a double.

Post by: ICEMAN on September 25, 2008, 08:03:33 AM: I bought one years ago when they were mostly being sent overseas to Iraq. Hard to get one then....

I like mine,have camped in it by itself on a few hunts, mostly nice weather hunts.....turkey...grouse...but took some rain in mine (no leaks...) on the grouse hunt. I use mine in my tent, everything is great, no blankets sliding off like on a traditional cot.

Only problem is not being able to sit on the cot at other times....

I placed a 2"foam pad in mine, even fold the tent cot up with the foam in place for easy storage...
