MinDak Hunter Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Anyone use a Kamp Rite tent cot? Mostly, I'm thinking of getting a double and looking for advise. I'm a bigger guy and wondering inf there is enough room for me and all my gear for a week.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Johnson Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I use a Cabela's Outfitter XL. I'm 6'5" and 350 lbs. and it is made for people like me. Very sturdy. When they're on sale about $80. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grousehunter Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I second the cabelas's outfitter cot. Use it every year elk hunting in colorado and its very comfortable and big! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down Deep Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Ditto on the Cabela's Outfitter. The cot is 40 inches wide and the base is engineered so there is no tip when someone sits on it. The mattress is has retainers that attach it to the cot so it stays put when you roll around. I also have the caddy and the rack which are great to unload and store all the pocket gear and hang the pants and coat. The rack also keeps your pillow from falling off the end of the cot at night. The cot, mattress, caddy and rack is a bit pricey, but in the long run well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picksbigwagon Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Unless you have a huge tent, the outfitter cot might be too big....I have one, I'm 6'7" and well over an eighth of a ton. I use for cabin camping since most cabins have small beds. I am not sure how I would get it in a tent unless it is one of those cabin tents. On the bright side, I love that cot. Every time I head to camp in Iowa, everyone complains about my huge cot, but I sleep like a baby, albeit a big baby, every year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Deep Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I have the 10 X 8 Cabelas quad pole tent. Cot fits fine and I can stand up in it. At 6.7 you might have to duck down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huey Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I'm 6'7" too and I'll put in another vote for the big cot. I use it for 2 trips to Iowa pheasant hunting, the MN deer season, and numerous summer camping trips each year. It's held up well for close to 5 years now and is very comfortable. You can get the same thing under different names at Gander and Sportsman's. Mine actually came from Gander and is called a "Nebos" brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
