  I live in a dorm and bought this product for when my friends end up staying the night. I bought the Kingsize because I have several tall friends that stay over sometimes. This cot is a well made prduct and I would recomment it to anyone looking to buy a cot that folds like this. It isn't something i would bring on a camping trip or anything like this since it only folds in 1/2 (does not collapse to a compact size). It fits nicely between the head of my bed and the wall when folded. Also I don't know how well it would hold up on uneven ground. The frame is thin walled tubing like you would find on a beach chair.
  In terms of size limits. It is long enough to sleep my freind who is 6'5". (i don't know if he hangs over the edge or not. My 6'2" friend sleeps comfortably on it. The weight limit says 220lbs, however i tip the scales at 245 and have slept on it several times with no ill effects. When looking to purchase it I was a little worried about the width (only 2 feet) but now that i have slept on it i have no complaints about the width.

  This is a great product. We Purchased eight of these for our grandkids to use over Thanksgiving...the delivery was as promised...the products were as described in the product information. Well built and good quality fabric and stitching. The kids really enjoyed using them in our bonus room...all 8 of them. I recommend this product without reserve.

  I noted that the actual description is a "Rio Adventure Camp Cot (King-Size)". It is an "adventure" sleeping on it... as for it being "king-size" they must be referring to the "gnome-king" in the "Wizard of ID". This is only 22 inches wide and 74 inches long. I am 5'10", so the length is okay. But my shoulders are considerably wider than 22" and I have to sleep on my right or left side. I can sleep on my back, but I have to fold my arms across my chest to be reasonably comfortable. I have used them two times on camping trips. But there is a problem with this type camp cot. First, it should be 24-26 inches wide and there should be a safety strap that should connect each of the "end" supports with the end of the sleeping frame to keep this cot stable when you get up in the middle of the night. You can make do with the size (but this should be improved by the manufacturer to widen it), but you do not need an unstable support. A strap at both ends that snap to the cot would prevent it from collapsing when you least expect it. This has happened twice. Also, they could make the supports longer so that it is 18" off the ground rather 12"... it is tough to get up from this cot. This particular model might be good for 12-14 year old child. It is hardly the type cot that I would purchase for an adult. It also has weight limitation of 220 lbs. I am 200 lbs, so it works. The fabric that is used on the cot is okay. Not great, just okay. This cot was manufactured in China... and manufactured cheaply.
  
  

• The Camping Cot....

  
  By A1S2YLD4NDV4KR on 2008-01-14
  This is a well made, sturdy cot.....although it is stated for 'camping'...it is very large, and only folds in half.
  It would take up much room as well as weight in the vehicle for
  going camping.
  Actually....when I ordered this cot...I thought that I had ordered one that breaks down and folds up into a neat little bag....to go
  camping in the mountains. I was very suprised when it arrived in a very large box...and soon realized that this will have to stay in the house...
  to use as an extra bed for company....and that I will have to order another one that folds up small for camping.
  
  It is a very well made cot....but I accidentally ordered the wrong thing.
  Such is life...these things happen..........
  
  Sincerely,

• King Size this product is NOT!!!

  I ordered this item based on the (King Size) in the title. I wanted to use it for my air bed. As the bed is 39" wide, the 22" width of this product is way too narrow. I would like to know how it could possibly be called King Size at a width of 22".
  
  
• Great Value! Super Light, well made

  For the money, these are lightweight, easy to set up and well made. They are somewhat bulky because of their size, but worth it for the added comfort I felt.
  
  
• Very Comfortable, Good Buy
  By A3SQDAQZURCZ9Y on 2007-11-04
  This cot is very comfortable and was a great buy for the price.
  It is made well and appears to be very sturdy. For those of you in a small dorm or apartment, know that this cot does not fold down to a very small size. But, it will slide under a bed without any trouble.

  Purchased 4 cots for my grand children to use. Their first use was for an Honor Guard group at a military funeral. Cots were easy to unfold, held an adult with no problems. A little big to fit under a bed for storage. I kept the plastic bag they were shipped in to store them. I would recommend this item.

  Rio Adventure Camp Cot (King-Size) For the price this is an exceptional product. I bought 2 for camping and they are excellent. Anyone looking to pay more thinking they would get a better product are looking for disappointment.

  The cot is very comfortable and easy to set up. It is also very lightweight! But unfortunately the legs collapse easily and therefore pose a safety risk. Manufacturer needs to rethink how to make legs more stable!
