The Timber Ridge Stacking Cot is an incredibly versatile 4-in-1 set with two cots that can be used together, separately, and as a bench with a backrest.
Key features & benefits
- Incredibly versatile.
- 4-in-1 Set.
- Very functional storage sets on the sides.
What this is about
When I first saw this Timber Ridge Stacking Cot, I told to myself, ‘well, Disc-O-Bed finally has a true competitor’. So indeed, here you have an incredibly well-built and versatile 4-in-1 set. By this I mean the following:
- You can use it as the top picture above shows, as a bunk bed or a stacking cot.
- But you can also attach the upper sleeping platform to the side and this will create a bench with a backrest shown in the picture below.
- You can use both cots separately as single cots. The pictures below show these configurations.
When it is time to go, you fold everything into its carry bag shown in the picture. You can store it like this at home and keep clean from dust. The dimensions in the carry bag are 33.86 x 28.35 x 14.17 inches (86 x 72 x 36 cm).
When the two cots are used one on another, you have side straps to keep everything in place, and this is a solid and stable structure:
Note that each of the cots has a full frame, so both structures separately are very stable and sturdy.
There are very useful storage sets on both sides, so each of the users has one for himself/herself:
Materials
They do not provide much information about the materials used here. But the frame is a combination of aluminum and steel. The legs are with some plastic caps so this is a floor friendly material.
But if you use the set as a bunk cot in a large family camping floored tent, it is best to add something under the feet to avoid problems with the tent’s floor.
Who is this Timber Ridge Stacking Cot for
Regarding the capacity, each of the cots can support up to 500 lb (227 kg). So this is an impressive capacity assuming it is correct.
Note that there is a version at Walmart that shows different parameters. This may not be the same cot or the brand has made a mess here.
Regarding the weight, this set is heavy, it weighs 68.2 lb (30.9 kg). So it is a bit heavier than the mentioned Disc-O-Bed Cot, but they are very close by weight and with the same capacity.
You have already seen its packed size, so it is a bit bulky but relatively thin. But you have two beds in one so this is expected.
Regarding the price, it looks steep, but here again bear in mind this is about two extraordinary camping cots.

( votes)Final thoughts
So this Timber Ridge Stacking Cot is incredibly functional and versatile. The design is unique on the market, but the overall concept is similar to the mentioned Disc-O-Bed bunk cots and in Cabela’s 2XL Outfitter Bunk Bed. I have included it in my lists of best double camping cots and stackable cots for camping.
