Extra Wide Camping Cots

---

In this text, I present extra wide camping cots available on the market.  These are the largest camping cots, suitable for use at places with a car and motorbike access.

Why extra large camping cots

If you are a tall person the answer is obvious. But even if you are not, you have probably noticed that the majority of camping cots are rather narrow; I am short myself but having more space is always welcome.

Yet another important reason is: such wide and long cots can be used as platforms for tents, so you have the tent-cot structure like many of those described within this site.

In such a use, these are 3-in-1 type item where you have tents and cots that can be used both separately and together. See for example my text about the Teton Sports Outfitter, and the Kodiak Canvas Swag 1 Person Tent shown also in the picture below.

Extra-wide cots side by side

Here are all of them, ordered by the width, with the widest on the top. Many of them are suitable to be used as platforms for tents:

 

All these cots are camping tools, and by this, I mean the tools to be used at places with the car or motorbike access. Although they are collapsible and so nicely packable, with the weight typically around 10 kg, they are not designed to be carried in backpacks.

The  list includes the following types:

• Military-style cots with X-shape legs.
• Military-style cots with S-shape legs.
• Cots with H-shape legs.
• Instant setup cots without end bars.
• The lower width limit for all cots in the list is 33 inches (84 cm).

Note, this list includes only single cots. If you need a double-wide camping cot for 2 people, please check my separate text.

1. Ozark Trail XXL Weather-Resistant Deluxe Cot

To realize why this Ozark Trail Cot is on such a position here in the list, it is enough to see its bed’s dimensions. This is an impressive cot with the bed size 85 x 42.1 inches (216 x 107 cm).

The cot is also with a huge capacity of up to 500 lb (227 kg). So I have included it in my other list if cots for heavy people.

The structure is typical for a military-style cot, and this means that you have two sidebars and two end-bars. The cot comes preassembled and you only have to unfold it and then to add two end-bars.

There is a nice detail here, a pivoting arm which makes adding the end-bars easy and without force. The cot is also with a locking mechanism for extra stability, and it comes with a carry bag and a huge organizer with many pockets of different sizes.
