Works, but go for the oversize
By HypnoToad
This is a great tent. It works as described, however it has a few problems: the headroom is very low, I stand 5'5", and although I could sit up in it hunched over, my head would brush the top (not fun in the morning with cold dew). The 2 legs really aren't enough for good balance, I tipped it lengthwise while moving around in my apartment, so on the campsite I was extra careful not to get too close to one end.The foam mat on mine was heavily bent at the joints, forming a low spot which was a bit uncomfortable. Also, you will need some sort of extra lining under your bag as it gets very cold down there.Besides that, one of the best nights Ive ever had camping. I found myself somewhat creeping to one end and hitting the small side with my head. Fortunately its long enough to slide back towards the middle. I was able to lay in it and change my pants, but it wasn't easy.I suggest going with the oversize which has the dome top, its only a little bit bigger when folded up but I'm going to bet that dome will be better at directing rain/dew away, and will allow you to sit up and not hit the roof. Everybody asked me what the hell it was, and lots of people said they thought they would like to try one out.

Great product
By Timothy Steinhoff
This is a fantastic concept. I am currently in the Bermuda Regiment. I am in the boat section of support company. During weekend camps that we have once a month we travel to an abandoned warehouse that we store our boats in and we sleep there throughout the weekend. The problem is that the warehouse, along with almost the entirety of the rest of the abandoned naval base that it's on, is in a state of disrepair. Every year we do a little bit to make it better but nobody has done any work to the roof in donkey's years. This makes for an interesting situation when it rains since the roof of the building is very leaky. I've been woken up in the middle of the night several times by rain water dripping on me in a steady stream. Also, there is the odd occasion where we have to create makeshift tents for ourselves when we sleep out on one of the islands. Now I can stay warm and dry throughout my rest periods thanks to the tent cot. Definitely worth every penny.Though, I don't think that I'd want to have to go on a hike with it on my back along with the rest of my gear. Thankfully, my section doesn't have that issue.Also, I'd like to note that the size of the cot is great for me. I'm 5'11" tall and weight about 155 lbs. I fit inside the item with great ease. This cot is slightly longer than the standard military issued cots that we have.

By J. Hester
No it isn't horse proof! I think one horse thought it was a couple of hay bales beside one another ....... but I scared them off. That was fun! This thing is great! After a quick fold-up I started out storing it behind the passenger seat but couldn't easily reach though to the back seat well. I optioned later to store it above some added cargo straps that I draped across the front and back sets of entrance handles, sometimes provided in cars, that will fold down to aid a person entering the vehicle. So barely enough room for the top of my head and forget the interior ceiling light, really unneeded as I have front map lights that are brighter anyway. Get the rainfly, it can be quickly placed in a strong rain if needed and then secured better once back inside the tent. When I want to entertain a breeze, I keep it folded inside should a strong rain sneak up later and wake me after a peaceful driftin' off. The storage case is nice now that it is home, but seldom used it on the road. Being separated from the somtimes wet/insect-filled ground is great but after arriving in cooler climates I debated on just what I could use as extra needed insulation below me, as the provided foam pad insert works well for stability but does little to keep out the cold. As an extra foam pad just seemed to defeat the portablilty issue, I decided on just an extra regular sleeping bag. The current small "down" bag I was using would insulate fine from the top as it would stay fluffy, but as my weight would compress the "down" below me I found it did little to keep me warm from underneath, but was exceptional to team-up with the new one as an insert. I have yet to try the giant "down" bag that was later given to me by my older brother, as I proceeded along my journey. I should mention the screening is great, I doubt the almost microscopic "No-Seeums" could even pose a problem. Also I got the more expensive version with aluminum stucture which I would strongly advise from the standpoint of less weight and freedom from possible corrosion. I even bought some pvc pipe and cheap bungee cords and made a sort of canopy using the rainfly and its zipper-open entrance.[...]
