If you have enough of sleeping on the ground in your outdoor adventures, please check this list with top rated camping cots, great tools for off-ground outdoor sleeping.
Camping cots are excellent tools to avoid ground moisture and sharp objects on the ground. With such a cot in the tent you still have lots of space underneath it to store your camping gear.
When you sleep on a cot you always need far less insulation if you camp in a cold environment. This is because you lose far more warmth to the ground than to the air around you, this can be 50 times more dependent on the type of the ground. So sleeping off-ground is essential and you can save on spending on sleeping pads.
But you can still need a pad, so check our list with double sleeping pads that can be used on the ground and on a double size cot. You might need a sleeping bag as well, so check our list with some great sleeping bags for women and double sleeping bags.
What is included in the list
The list includes two essentially different types:
- Standard camping cots. Those are folding cots which you can use in a family camping tent.
- Cot-tents for camping or tent-cots as they are also called. These are cots with a tent attached on it. So you have an off-ground platform which raises the tent above the ground. You can put such a structure literally anywhere and sleep fully protected from the groundwater and from the rainwater.
Regarding the size, in both of the groups above you have single and double cots. Those double size tent-cots can be used for solo camping as well and you will have the space next to you for your geat, close at hand, safe, and protected.
These are all folding and collapsible cots, and this applies to both major groups. Here again you have two specific types: i) One type folds remaining large in two dimensions, but it becomes thin so you can store it in narrow spaces. ii) The other type folds like an umbrella and it is long in one dimension only, these are easier to transport and to store. Most of them come with a carry bag included, it is used also for storage to keep the cot clean from the dust.
All of them are easy to use and you can have them ready in just a couple of minutes and without any extra tools. You will see some exceptionally strong examples of cots for heavy people. Some of them are nicely packable and light enough to be carried attached to the backpack.
You will see examples of cots with a mattress included, and this can be a foam mattress for camping or an air pad. The latter is normally more packable but the former offers some insulation and you can use such cots in all seasons.
The camping cots in the list are true Amazon bestsellers picked from various departments on Amazon. The prices are updated daily and all other information (ratings and the number of customers’ reports) is also fresh and accurate. You will see that some of the cots are Amazon Prime items, so this is a nice option to use for such bulky items which can be shipped to you for free and within a couple of days.
The list is dynamic and new models will appear occasionally depending on what is becoming bestselling and trendy on Amazon. So bookmark this text and check from time to time.
So here is our list with best folding tent cots for camping, please have a look and see what makes them so popular, you will notice that many of them are on sale:
