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.

An extra wide and extra long rest area makes Slumberjack's Big Cot exceptionally comfortable. Its anti-squeak construction allows you, and your campmates, to have a great sleep without all that noise when you flip over. It features a 325 weight capacity, 32 by 82-inch sleep area, legs that lift 18 inches off the ground, and strong 600D by 300D nylon ripstop fabric.
