Quality Helinox Product with Excellent Enwild Service

Finally an option for me to get a decent nights sleep while out for a few days trip. My friends are amazed I can fit so much into my pack, and now I have a cot to add to the amazement! Also Enwild shipped the items same day and arrived the following, equally amazing! Thank you.
Dislikes
none.

An incredible alternative to sleep pads!
Likes
Surprisingly comfortable, this cot makes me wish I had tried them a long time ago. It's very comparable to ThermoRest's ultralight cot, although in my opinion Helonix's option is slightly easier to assemble. Perfect for warm weather camping where ever ounce doesn't count, but still certainly light enough for where you have to carry in. I'm looking forward to many more trips with it!
Dislikes
Not a dislike, more of just an acknowledgement that it is heavier than the lightest sleeping pads available, however it's also more comfortable than those too

If you are not cutting weight, you NEED this cot
Likes
-Durable for how lightweight it is. -Had the capability to be used with only three legs instead of 4 (so you can cut weight). -Packs down easy into bag -I almost had to stop backpacking due to my back hurting so bad and this cot helped my aching back in a big way.
Dislikes
-The first time I put it together it took me so long to get the legs in place, however, the next few times I put it together, I had it together in less than 5 minutes.

Perfect

I has tried other Cots. The engineering on this is much better and the Cot is comfortable. I like that it is lighter than others. Instead of having to place multiple poles together the with multiple piece to keep up with there is a elastic band that snaps the legs together. Placing them on the Cot is the same. You will need some strength to snap it in.
Dislikes
Price is a little high. I pinched myself and got a blood blister snapping it on the Cot frame. I hate the Captcha everytime I login. Could you at least get rid of the pictures.

I was tired of sleeping on my best friend’s floor when I visited. If I used a sleeping pad it was too narrow and slippery. This cot is light enough to bring backpacking, but is great to sleep on while traveling.
Likes
Long and wide enough to stretch out. Comfortable to sleep on my back or on my side. Look forward to using it during hot months.
Dislikes
None that I have come across yet.

Can't love this thing enough!
Likes
Easy to put up (after slight learning curve), super light and visually appealing. Feels solid when assembled and is comfortable enough without a pad for an overnight stay, raising me up off the ground (without me feeling any of the legs underneath) so I can get a good night's sleep.
Dislikes
First couple of times, it was rather difficult to get the legs attached, but after a short learning curve, I can now assemble this cot very quickly indeed.

Almost as good as my bed at home

I have been solely a hammock camper for the past few years. I am not able to sleep in the ground comfortable and still be able to walk the next day. I am a very active side sleeper, so even with thick sleeping pads I cannot stay comfortable for long. I have been planning some hikes out west where hammocks will not be an option, so I opted to try a cot. Firstly, this thing is light! It is amazing the amount of support it gives for its weight. Secondly, it has a very sturdy and durable design despite it's light weight. Lastly, it fits in a 2 person tent with room for the other person. It doesn't leave extra room, but enough for a cozy night sleep. I am small at 5'10" and 130 pounds and have plenty of space (similar to most sleeping pads).
Dislikes
I did not have problems putting it together, but it would be difficult to do inside a small backpacking tent. As long as the weather is nice, it can be set up outside and slid in. Also, the legs want to maintain their open position so it gets a little difficult when trying to fold them up and pack them down.

Super Comfortable and Light
Likes
Light but strong. We purchased these for car camping but I’ve done a lot of backpacking and I’d use them for backpacking too. They are super comfortable. We have light sleeping pads that we put on top of the cots and we were warm and comfortable all night long.
Dislikes
They are pretty stiff and difficult to put together the first few times. I’m not sure I could have done it by myself. It gets easier with use. Great design though.

Lightweight, Comfortable, High Quality... Can be made lighter by only packing three support legs vs four...
Dislikes
None really, but lighter is always better... Not sure how it will perform in winter with cold air flowing below?
