FE Active Folding Camping Cot - Lightweight, Compact & Portable Camping Bed, Comfortable Sleeping Cots for Adults & Kids - Camp Cot Fits Single Air Mattress Pad|Designed in California, USA

I like that it’s lightweight, and packs small. the legs are a bit tricky to pack down. I read one review that said it could be used with less than all the legs, but I tried that when I misplaced one before a trip and I do not recommend that because it felt less stable, and more likely to break. I am not particularly big. I fit on it lengthwise and I am 5’8, but if you’re as tall as me and a belly sleeper with a size 10 feet, you might be a bit long for this cot. when I first bought it 4 years ago, I did not have a problem with it being so low to the ground, but now I can see what other reviewers were talking about it being low and somewhat hard to get up from. if you have trouble getting up from ground level, this is only about 6 inches off the ground. I do like it, but now I only take it when I absolutely need to pack light. I would not say that it is suitable for backpacking unless you aren’t hiking far and you don’t mind the extra size because even though it packs small, it is still someone bulky and cumbersome compared to other super lightweight cots. other than that, I have nothing bad to say. I like it.

Bottom Line: The FE Active Folding Camping Cot let me get GREAT night's sleep, ever night, for 5 consecutive nights on my last motorcycle camping trip through the TN and NC mountains. I don't review products often but this one deserves 6 stars!Summary: My 62-year-old back was letting me know that if I intended to keep tent camping from a motorcycle, an upgrade was needed for my sleep setup. I already own a good sleeping pad and decided that the next step was to get it off the ground. After a bit of research, I found this cot and am extremely happy with my purchase! After 9 hours of riding I set up camp and got 7+ hours of high-quality sleep. I woke up refreshed and my back felt great. The next day I rode another 8 hours to the next camp site where I got another great night's sleep, same thing the next night, and the next... by the 4th night this cot became a permanent part of my camping gear.Details: I ordered the cot with enough time to learn how to set it up and make sure it fit in my Marmot 3P Tungsten tent. My initial impressions were: 1) the aluminum tubing is sturdy, 2) the man-made fabric is tough and won't stretch if it gets wet, 3) the seams are well stitched and, 4) it requires some thoughtfully placed body weight to set up.Setup\takedown is easily done outside of the tent, it's a bit more difficult when you have to do it inside a low ceiling tent because it's raining out. Once setup, the cot fabric stretches tight and provides a firm foundation for a sleeping pad. I sleep on my side and back and this cot provided ample room for me to be very comfortable, which ever position I ended up in.The cot added about 5 minutes to my tent setup and ~7 when breaking camp. It re-packed nicely into its storage pouch. The cot's ten plastic feet are wide and provide good weight distribution. If you don't set your tent up on sharp rocks, they shouldn't wear out the tent's ground pad or floor.

Seems sturdy and is comfortable. Slightly difficult to install poles. Hopefully will get better with more use

Update: Amazon assisted me in contacting the company. They were quick to respond and were very helpful. They asked for pictures and immediately sent me replacements. They also said they’d forward the pictures to their design department to see if there is a need to redesign. Very good company. The cots were great. Compact to fit two of them along with 2 sleeping bags, a tent, and other camping gear in a single bag that met the size and weight allowance for the aircraft. Highly recommend.I did a lot of reading before choosing this cot. My wife and I took a 2 week trip abroad and wanted to take a tent and camp. To keep comfortable we looked at the cots for weight and size as our check in luggage could only be 23kg. We bought 2 of these a month before leaving on our trip as to give us a chance to check they would work. They are very comfortable and kept us off the ground. We are overall pleased with these. The draw back, when I took them down after our third night to move on to another town, we noticed 2 of the legs were bent on each cot. Could not figure out how and they can’t be bent back. The rest of the trip we put the bent ones at the head and foot where less weight but overall disappointed they bent bc we really liked these cots and wanted to use them again on future trips. Bc we bought them 1.5 months before our trip, we can’t have them replaced. Will try to find a way to contact the company.

I bought this cot on 8/11/24. Around late August- early Sept of 24 I started using it as a lounge for tanning outside in my backyard.A week ago (4/25/25) I noticed the legs were bent, not all but a few. If they weren’t in just the right position it would collapse when lying on it. Around the same time I noticed the fabric was starting to rip.As of today (5/2/25) the long support just snapped.I didn’t use my cot from October 24-earl Feb 25. I got about 3 months of use. Not worth the price.
