1. SoundOff Verified Buyer – 15 April 2024

   Pros: Easy Setup Spring Loaded Hubs Perfect Tension Stable Cons: None What I received in the package: 1 x Coleman Camping Cot 1 x Storage Bag This product is roughly 26” x 6 1.5” x 6.5” when stowed and 75” x 28” x 17” when deployed. The cot weighs roughly ….. The cot has a SpyderHub Technology that features spring loaded hubs that rotate to attache the frame and keep tension on the cot fabric. This cot can hold up to 300lbs. What I liked about this cot is that it looks like it might be delicate but when you sit or lay on it … it is surprisingly sturdy and resilient. Assembly was straight forward and very difficult to get wrong. I was able to assemble and disassemble the cot in under 5 minutes each. In testing, this cot is much more comfortable than the military style cot I am used to using. For a quick off the ground rack … you could do much worse than this product. The side to side stability is good and for a thinner cot material, seems to hold up well. I was unable to locate any warranty either in the product information or item description. I appreciate you taking the time to read this. I received this product in exchange for an honest review. All in all, Coleman has been a standard in camping since I can remember. This is worthy of the brand name and is an excellent choice if you prefer sleeping above ground level. Hope this information was helpful. [4 Stars] This product is made in China.

   I really like the design. I like it enough that I could get over the ugly color scheme. BUUUUUUUT….. the implementation is where great products go to die, and die this product must.
   First of all, the table surface is way too flexible. I don’t understand why they couldn’t have used aluminum plates or some such. As it is, the utility of this table is extremely limited by the choice of materials. Maybe they cheaped out on the surface because they didn’t want to add even more weight. because it is heavy. It is heavy because the legs/frame are made of steel. While I appreciate the stability this offers, it isn’t needed because the surface is comparably flimsy.
   I’m sure there is some poor product engineer up to Coleman that cries himself to sleep each night knowing that they designed an excellent product that middle management “fixed”.
   Oh and those cup holders? WTF, no!
   Overall, this is an overly weighted solution for a light weight table. Coleman once again shows us something that could have been a game changer and does it in the worst possible way.

   The table came with zero instructions.on how to assemble it. While it wasn’t terribly hard to figure out, I was put off that there wasn’t anything provided to address the ‘tricl’ to setting it up. It seemed really low to the ground… Like reeeesaallllyyyy low to the ground once you set up the frame, and we’re ready to attach the top. You actually have to compress the frame to make it flex upward and attach the table corners. Once you figured that out it was mostly straight forward to set it up. I liked how light the table was, and how it looked when finished, but my list of likes was quickly overshadowed by dislikes with the finished product. I didn’t like how flimsy the top was, how it sagged in the middle and two sides where it wasn’t reinforced, and how wobbly it was. We set it up, we tried it out and after hearing my family complain about one aspect of another about the table over the course of two days, I disassembled it and put it back in the box. For the cost and what you get, I’d definitely look elsewhere. I hope this helps.

   I got this cot with in the interest of having a bed-height unit for a larger tent. I noted that Coleman had made a line of products, mainly stools and tables, using this design technique. Right off the bat, I was struck by how heavy this unit is. I suppose the poles have to be that thick due to the cantilevered style, and this is the first issue I had. This style works well for lighter payloads, but in order to make this stiff enough for an adult sleeper, they have had to make it really, really beefy. The fittings are huge. Assembly wasn’t that bad – though a bit clunky with all those big fittings. One of the scissor joints had more play in it than the others. You have to assemble the poles and feed them through the sleeves, then pull quite strongly to snap them into the base. Once it’s all together, it’s fairly stable. It is comfortable to sleep on, I’ll grant you that. It doesn’t have any center bar, and surprisingly doesn’t wobble side to side that much at all. It does wobble along its long dimension a little due to the play in the joint fittings, but not appreciably. The biggest annoyance I had was with the feet. All the other camping cots I have used have long bars that lay along the floor and distribute the load. This one uses feet instead, and after one night I had six holes in my tent floor where these had pushed through into the dirt below. Not punctures, but they stressed and separated the ripstop material fairly quickly and to the point that I had to patch up my tent. I bet they’d grind any tent floor whether on a soft or hard surface. All in all, if you’re looking for a camp cot for a hard floor (wood or concrete) this would be a suitable substitute for those military-surplus metal cots we had at summer camp as kids. I just won’t ever put it in a tent or anything with a fabric floor.

   

5. Carito Verified Buyer – 28 August 2024

   Compramos dos y ambos demostraron que el plástico del que está fabricado, no es el indicado (frágil) y que el diseño en cuanto al poder de soporte, no está bien. En ambos después de dos noches de uso, algunos de los hoyos circulares dónde se ensamblan las patas que sostienen la lona, se cuartearon y se deformaron cómo ovalos, por lo menos en dos de ellos. Esto hizo que quedaran bajos y una de sus esquinas, casi toquen el suelo.Así que no es que estuvieran defectuosos, tienen un serio problema de diseño y material en los soportes que van al piso. El uso fue con personas de 183 libras. Muy lindos a primera vista y luego, son inservibles. Decepción total.

   This thing is so clever. The instructions were missing for assembly however after a while of trial and error I figured it out. Whoever put this together designed some really clever features. The fold out cup holder hubs excellent. The tension before you assemble the rods it’s very clever. Unfortunately that’s what stumped me as far as assembly because I thought I ordered a tall table and it’s very wide until you figure out that you have to pull it together.

   I purchased this cot to use during a move. When it first arrived several days ago, I set it up to check it out and make sure it was as easy as they say. It was. Stretched out on our to test for comfort. Then I stored it away until I needed it.

   Yesterday, the movers came and packed away all my belongings, so I set up the cot for my temporary bed. At first, all seemed well. But after about an hour I noticed a sound that I assumed was the fabric of the cot stretching on the frame. It was not. A moment later, an entire corner of the cot collapsed.

   I set it up again and this time it collapsed almost immediately. I’m well under the maximum rated weight for the cot, so I can only assume I got a lemon. Either way, I’m returning. I’d rather pay more to get something I know will do what it’s meant to

   El concepto esta genial, pero la realidad fue muy desilusionaste. Las patas son muy frágiles.

    Easy to assemble, holds a lot of weight for it’s size…I use it for plein air painting in the field.

    I’m pretty happy with this Coleman camp table overall. The metal frame bars are nice and sturdy with thick walls. The plastic hubs that hold the frame are also thick and beefy. Assembly is easy and pretty much self explanatory – it doesn’t take more than a minute or two to assemble. The top is quite strong but you will get a little bit of sag in the middle especially with heavy items on top. It’s not bad and still holds cups fairly level, but it doesn’t stay completely flat, hence the 4 star rating instead of 5. It folds down nicely to fit into the storage pouch and is very portable, though not exactly lightweight. Overall it works well and provides a good but not quite perfect portable outdoor table solution.
