LuxuryLite Mesh Cot

Why We Like The LuxuryLite Mesh Cot
One of our greatest joys in the summer months is the simplicity of camping trips. With hardly any gear required, it's hard to beat spending time outside with your closest companions. However, waking up in a sweltering tent can be very uncomfortable.
Luckily for us, Therm-a-Rest offers the LuxuryLite Mesh Cot as a solution by separating you from the ground with highly ventilated materials. Therm-a-Rest's patented BowFrame design uses close-to-the-ground feet and sturdy aluminum bars that you'll never feel thanks to the stretch-free mesh fabric. This cot breaks down to fit in an extremely compact carry bag for car camping trips or even bicycle tours.

Mesh cot
The cot has been great for sleeping. I wasn’t happy that the plastic feet tore holes in the bottom of my tent after a night of compression on the tent floor. I have since learned to place a ground cloth under the cot, but I would have preferred to not have that problem. Also wish I purchased the thermal version vs the mesh, but you don’t see to sell either the cot anymore or even just the “bed” surface, otherwise I would have purchased one years ago.

Mesh cots
We have two. Absolutely love both. One’s about 12 years old, the other one is newer. Rock solid, get up off the ground, very comfortable, especially for side sleepers.

Great Cot
It is so much more comfortable than an air mattress. Plus it gets you up off of the ground a few inches so you don’t have to worry about small rocks and sticks underneath your tent.

Mesh cot
I’m significantly under the weight limit for the cot. I tried the cot at home and bottomed the cot out laying on my side. Had to return it. It would be nice if the cot weight limits listed were realistic.

Almost impossible to put together
The mesh cot is assembled by bending the "legs" and inserting them into the "bed rails" of the cot. The legs are so stiff, it is like trying to bend a solid metal rod. My husband, who is hella strong, broke into a sweat getting these to bend into position. So how am I, a 115 lb woman, going to assemble these on my own? Is there some trick? Once assembled, the cot is fantastic - very comfortable sleeping.

Super disappointed

I bought this cot because I have back problems and camping has become a sleepless endeavor. Unfortunately, the poles are so tight I cannot assemble the cot without further injuring my back. I have a very strong upper body, but at 115lbs it was nearly impossible to get the double poles in. Not worth the back strain. I will note that my dad has this cot and he loves it, so it might work for you if you’re big and strong.

Extra comfort on the river
This has been great for the many over night rafting trips we have done already this year.

Great for Tipi tent camping
Never used a cot in the past that was real packable. This product was amazing on several rafting camping trips and made a difference while winter camping.

Comfortable & light but poor setup
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
The cot was very light weight and comfortable. The legs and poles that spread the cot are so very tight. If you are not very careful where the feet attach to the long side poles they can catch on the fabrics and tear it. Mine tore on the very first use. Returned after one use.
