In this text, I present an overview of 11 Coleman Camp Cots. These are all existing Coleman models available for 2020, all enormously popular camping beds that have been on the market for a number of years already. The prices of all the cots are hard to match.
Cots with mattresses
So you have very different cots here. Some of them come with the mattress, but here too you have big differences regarding the thickness of the mattresses and the material. Some have air pads and some are with foam mattresses.
Collapsible vs foldable
When packed, foldable beds remain relatively large in two dimensions, and this makes them less suitable for transport and storage.
The collapsible cots are far more convenient for transport and storage. These remain relatively large in one dimension only.
Double wide and single camping cots
There are cots here for two users and also single camping cots.
Reclining design
This type offers several different positions for back and feet, so you can use them to lounge during the day and as a camping bed during the night.
Below I give a few data for some of them. Note that some of the cots are presented in more details in my separate texts, so you can follow the links to read more.
