Slumberjack Big Cot Review

Slumberjack Big Cot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
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.

Blantex XK-3 Heavy Duty Steel Folding bed with 2-1/2-Inch Mat Review

These beds are exactally what we are looking for.I love the four legs, which make them stable on sloped ground.My husband and I are both over 6 foot tall.The width of these allow plenty of room to move around without hitting the frame.The pad is very comfortable, and looks to be very durable.I like the metal spring system, which will be durable for many years to come and the springs can be replaced with in need be unlike material based cots.If the material rips, your are in trouble.I used beds like these years ago, and then went to the inflatable matresses. The air beds make you hot and don't always hold the air. I'm so glad to be back in cots.These provide under the bed storage( we camp with a lot of gear, 3 children and two dogs) and all our gear and dogs fit well underneath. I do wish they were a little taller, maybe 3 or 4 inches. The are a little heavy, but for the comfort and design, it's a fair trade.I would recommend these to anyone who wants a superior night sleep while "roughing it".Just one more note, we will be using these when our hunting party comes in too!!!!!

Slumberjack Big XL Cot Review

Slumberjack Big XL Cot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Slumberjack arrived on my door tonight and I tried to set it up in my tiny living room and ended up having to move furniture!The size is fantastic, it has plenty of room to sleep and flop around without rolling over the support bars.When laying on it the size feels more like a twin bed than a camp cot.

Pay attention to the fact that it is TALL. The description clearly states the height, but at 5'5" my feet don't touch the ground when sitting on the cot so getting out of it will be a comical event.If you are tall this shouldn't be a problem, but if you're in the Hobbit height category (like me) take heed.

The cot is heavy and while it comes with a sturdy case with shoulder strap it isn't the option for long treks into the woods.It also requires some muscle to get the cot set up.The concept is simple, unfold it and feed the two end bars through the top and bottom of the cot, but actually attaching the end bars is hard.I also think the plastic hooks will not last years as long as the rest of the cot.Once the cot is put together it is sturdy and will provide an excellent sleeping experience, but it isn't designed to be set up and taken down night after night.

The quality of the cot is good and the built-in shelf under the cot will be handy for keeping things dry, tucking a book in, or (for me) keeping a ladder close.

Serta Queen Elevated Pillow Top Air Bed (Sand) Review

Serta Queen Elevated Pillow Top Air Bed
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I think for many people this bed would be great, but it didn't quite work for me. The pump works great, but is very loud both filling and emptying. It gets the mattress very firm. Though the mattress was firm enough, the whole structure bowed down in the center under the weight of two people. It was enough that neither of us were comfortable by morning.

Coleman Queen-Sized Quickbed with 4D Pump and Wrap 'N' Roll Storage Review

Coleman Queen-Sized Quickbed with 4D Pump and Wrap 'N' Roll Storage
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I'm going on a family camping trip where there is no packing involved and all I have to do is set up the tent and gear, I always take along this Coleman flocked Queen size bed for my wife and I.It is pretty easy to inflate (especially with the Quickpump), and is so comfortable I sometimes almost forget I'm sleeping on the ground.We also use this mattress a lot at home when we have lots of company and don't have enough beds to go around.
My one complaint with this bed, and one which I have heard others share, is that it is not big enough.It is supposed to be a queen size bed, but it just doesn't seem as large as our queen size bed at home.Aside from this minor complaint, however, the Coleman flocked mattress has served me well.In fact, I slept on one for the first month I was away from home at college, and was still satisfied with its comfort after sleeping on it for over four weeks.

Wenzel Full Insta-bed with Comfort Adjust Pump Review

Wenzel Full Insta-bed with Comfort Adjust Pump
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've slept on a few air mattresses, I live in NYC, were space is a premium. I needed something that could tuck away easily but still be a more comfortable option than the couch.I realized it would have been nice to get an automatic pump versus a hand pump.But, that said, this is an air mattress that you could take car camping.I slept on it, it was comfortable.I think it lost a little air-- but I'm not sure I may have not screwed a cap on tightly enough.It is a great deal for the price, in that it is no less comfortable that the $100plus air mattresses I have slept on.AND-- i used a hair dryer to do the bulk of the blowing up, which was nice.I just use the hand pump for the finishing touch.Fits very compactly into a little storage ottoman (with room for sheets and blankets).I would give it 5 stars except for whether the loss of air was not user error, and the hand pump.

Coleman King-Sized Quickbed with Wrap 'N' Roll Storage Review

Coleman King-Sized Quickbed with Wrap 'N' Roll Storage
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Whether you are having relatives over and giving up your king size bed, you are traveling to family where there are simply no extra beds or you are looking for a bed to take on your camping trip, this is a nice spare bed to have on hand for every occasion.

After my Aero Bed deflated in the middle of the night the last time my parents came to visit, I tossed it out into the garbage and bought this one. When we moved into our new place and had still not moved all the furniture we spent the night camping out on this bed.

The bed inflates in under three minutes if you get one of the Ozark Trail Electric Air Pumps. I almost prefer the pump not to be attached to the bed, as is the case in the aero beds.

It took a few minutes to figure out the advanced double lock valve, but it makes inflation and deflation fast and simple.

This bed holds up to 600lbs and has a extra thick heavy-duty PVC with rayon flocked top. 56 coils provide more strength and firmness. I'd say it was almost more comfortable than my old Aero bed.

Perfect for camping, guests, an extra bed you can put out in the living room to watch movies on, etc, etc. This bed also can be stored in a very small space.

Fairly comfortable and perfect for short term use. Works with your flat or fitted sheets and is guaranteed not to leak or you can return it for a replacement.

Product Description:
Large enough to easily accommodate two adults (or four small children), this king-size Quickbed gets its name from Double-Lock valves that allow it to inflate 10 times quicker than air beds with pinch valves. And when morning rolls around you'll find that, thanks to the Double-Lock valves, the air beds deflate 20 times faster as well. Keep one of these king-size flocked air beds around for camping trips, unexpected guests, or kids' slumber parties (the mattress will accommodate fitted or flat king-size sheets). The heavy-duty PVC construction is designed to endure all sorts of abuse while the soft top adds warmth and softness for colder nights. The air bed can hold up to 600 pounds. Its 56 coils and 6-inch side gussets provide support and, unless you sit down from a height, keep you from bumping the ground. Pump sold separately.

Coleman's King-Sized Quickbed offers heavy-duty PVC construction and can support up to 600 pounds.
