Coleman Trailhead™ II Camping Cot

Received recently and used once at time of review. So far so good. Out of the box it it is as advertised. I like the width a lot, makes it more comfortable. It is "challenging" (takes some strength) to get the 2nd crossbar in place. Perhaps over time that will decrease if the material stretches some. Should it hold up over time I feel it is a very good value.

I'm getting a little too "old" to be dragging my butt off the cold ground during our fall campouts. This cot seems to work perfect. Lots of people complained about how difficult it was to put together, so I ordered early and strong armed it together to let my boys sleep on it a couple nights and loosen the fabric. Easy set up, easy put away, I'm lovin' it.

I bought this because I had a grandmother visting for a week and find my couch too short for comfortable sleeping and recliners to be an unnatural sleeping position. This cot eliminated the neck pain associated with sleeping on a couch arm so it's a huge improvement if you can't afford or store even a twin size guest bed. It might be a bit firm for some people but you can always pad it if that's your preference. First, let's get it out of the way: this product is ridiculously difficult to assemble for the first use. The canvas stretches incredibly tight and you're quite likely to pinch a finger or two trying to get it to lock into place. However, after 1-2 uses, it'll stretch enough that it's snug but doable without too much difficulty. Once you get it assembled it is a perfectly functional but very firm bed. If you need a softer surface, buy a twin size foam mattress topper and cut it down to size.

Bought these cots for a deer hunt to keep us off the ground, some reviews describe the cots as heavy, they are a bit heavy but totally manageable. all of the hunters in our party were over 200 lbs and we all slept comfortably with plenty of room to turn from side to side. We put in rough miles and came back exhausted and the cots were comfortable allowing us to rest up for the next day. The cots look well made and time will tell how well they will hold up.the feet on these cots are heavy duty as well plan on placing carpet between the feet and tent floor so you do not damage the tent. I plan on purchasing several more for our New Mexico cabin and as back up beds for guests...at this sale price you cant go wrong.

Easy to assemble and disassemble. The size is great. I bought this for my son who is 6’ tall and he had plenty of room. I did use a self inflating mattress on top for extra padding and it was perfect. My one complaint was that the corners of the frame stick out. I am not sure how many times we ran into them and even cut ourselves before I ran to a dollar store and bought a pool noodle and padded them myself! It’s was a cheap fix though…just wish I did it sooner.

You must use all your strength to put the safety end bars (that keeps the cot aligned and not prone to collapse)in place. I could get the end that has the Coleman logo together, but the end where I have my feet I can get one side on but not the other. I sweated like HECK! to get the ends together. I gave up on the feet end and just use a bungee cord on that one side I couldn't get. I bought a king size Mainstay comforter, fold it once, and sleep on top of it to make this cot feel more comfy. It's very durable from what I can tell so far and is comfy enough to sleep on every night. Another reason I gave this a 4 star is because I have like a slit/cut on the carrying bag. I just don't like the idea of buying anything that's suppose to be brand new with that sort of flaw to it. Other than those 2 semi-problems I recommend this product.

I got this for a place to sleep while visiting my children houses and it has been very good it's very sturdy. I had to add some padding one side bottom because I'm tall and my legs hanging over the metal bars are a little uncomfortable but for someone shorter than 6 foot two would enjoy sleeping on it. Overall I would highly recommend this cot.

nice cot I will be using for deer camp for a few days at a time. Put together easy ,laid on it and used one night to sleep on, put it away until October. I have a different brand that is much heavier and about the same comfort level so this one is way lighter that's a bonus .

I's older and have arthritis in my hands. Getting the second end pole in is a nightmare. I gave up the first time I tried and waited a couple of days. I was able to get it in the second time, but it was VERY hard. I don't need it for a couple more weeks so I'll set up a few more times.

Buyer beware! False advertisement on the width at 35 inches when the sleeping area is only 30 inches. “I purchased this because the listing advertised a 35-inch-wide cot. The actual sleeping surface measures only about 30 inches. The remaining width is the metal frame, which is not usable for sleeping. I was specifically looking for an oversized/XXL cot, so this item does not meet my expectations based on the listing.”
