Portable Camping Cot, 600LBS Max Load, Extra Wide with Thick Mattress, Folding Cot for Outdoor Camping/Office, Home Nap (Grey)

The Fragess Portable Camping Cot, a 28" extra-wide, heavy-duty folding cot with a thick mattress and a 600-lb weight capacity, is designed for versatile use in camping, office naps, or home guest sleeping arrangements. Its blue finish and portable design make it a practical choice for outdoor enthusiasts or those needing a compact sleep solution. Our experience with this cot was mixed—our grandkids loved it, but my wife found it uncomfortable, though its ease of setup and storage were standout features.Packaging and SetupThe cot arrived well-packaged, with the folded cot, mattress, and storage bag securely packed to prevent damage. Setup was remarkably simple, taking less than 5 minutes. The cot unfolds smoothly, and the sturdy steel frame locks into place with minimal effort—no tools required. Attaching the thick polyester mattress (approximately 2 inches thick) was straightforward, securing tightly to the frame with straps. Folding it back up was equally easy, and it fit neatly into the included storage bag, which has a drawstring closure and carry handle. The compact folded size (around 40”L x 8”W x 8”H) stores effortlessly in our closet, making it ideal for small spaces.Design and Build QualityThe Fragess cot is robust, with a heavy-duty steel frame and 1200D Oxford fabric that supports up to 600 lbs, accommodating most adults and multiple children. The 28-inch width provides ample sleeping space, wider than standard cots, and the elevated design (about 17 inches off the ground) makes getting in and out easier than lower models. The mattress, while thicker than typical cot pads, offers moderate cushioning with a waterproof coating, which is practical for outdoor use or spill-prone environments. The cot’s blue color is vibrant and stylish, and the frame shows no signs of bending or creaking after multiple uses. Four anti-slip feet ensure stability on various surfaces, from hardwood floors to campsite ground.PerformanceOur grandkids (ages 6 and 8, weighing 50-70 lbs) adored the cot, finding it very comfortable for both napping and overnight camping in our backyard. They slept soundly, with no complaints about the mattress firmness, and enjoyed the extra width for sprawling out. However, my wife (in her 50s, 140 lbs) found the cot less comfortable, noting that the mattress felt too firm and lacked sufficient padding for her back, leading to discomfort after a few hours. This suggests the cot may better suit younger users or those accustomed to firmer surfaces. The cot performed well functionally, remaining stable during use and easy to transport (weighing about 18 lbs). We haven’t tested it outdoors extensively, but the waterproof mattress and durable fabric seem well-suited for camping.ProsEasy setup and storage: Unfolds and folds in minutes, fits neatly in storage bag.Kid-friendly comfort: Grandkids found it cozy and spacious.Sturdy construction: 600-lb capacity and steel frame ensure durability.Portable: Lightweight and compact for camping or home use.Stable design: Anti-slip feet prevent wobbling on various surfaces.ConsAdult comfort varies: My wife found the mattress too firm for extended use.Mattress thickness: Could be thicker for better cushioning for adults.ConclusionThe Fragess Portable Camping Cot is a well-built, easy-to-use option for camping, guest sleeping, or kid-friendly naps. Its quick setup, compact storage, and sturdy 600-lb frame make it highly practical, and our grandkids loved its comfort. However, adults like my wife may find the mattress too firm, so it’s best suited for younger users or those who prefer harder surfaces. For families or campers seeking a portable, durable cot, it’s a strong contender, with minor caveats for adult comfort.

These things are great! Easy to set up and sturdy. To set them up, you just press the center of the cots towards the floor. To collapse them back, just pull the ends toward center. The pad doesn’t fit in the bag with the cot, BUT the pad has an integrated bag sewn onto it. I mean that the back of the pad has a flap sewn into it that holds the pad in place on the cot and when rolled up backwards the pad fits inside of that flap keeping it rolled up. The pad is fluffy and soft making the cot about as comfortable as you could ever hope for a folding cot to be. Allow for some extra storage space for the pad when you buy it. I received my cots a day earlier than the projected delivery date and they arrived undamaged. They’re pretty light and easily collapsed. They fit back in the bag easily rather than it being a real struggle like happens with most collapsible chairs, tents, and cots. Having the two-pack option was nice so as to keep matching cots around.

I used my camp cot over a two day camping trip this past week. It is easy to set up and take down. The major bonus is that it is heavy duty and stable. There was not one point during its usage either sitting on or sleeping on where I felt it would tip over or rock.The comfort level is very firm and the small padding item that came with it was not very useful. This isn’t a negative or a positive, but I found the bars to be very uncomfortable when any of my body was across it during the night. Next time, I might consider getting some cheap pool noodles and slitting them open so that I can put the pool noodles on the edges for a softer sleep.My sleep was about as good on this cot as it is on a thin air mattress in a tent, but the bonus is that it’s much easier to get up and down because of its height and for that it’s worth it to me.

This is a very steady cot. The padding on top is very flimsy. I would recommend putting a different pad. It is nice that the mat fits on like a sheet to keep it in place but does not offer much padding. It is very easy to set up and take down. It fits nicely in the bag. It is hard to get the mat to fit in once it has been open. I really like them for camping and look forward to many more trips using my cot.

The cot itself is great, it’s convenient easy to store easy to use, the cushion adds a little bit of extra comfort and turns into a shoulder strap carrying cushion.. con the buckle that is supposed to hold it closed once it’s folded was not well-made at all and feel right off the strap. It’s not a tight hold, so I actually had to tie it to the clip so that the bed would be able to be snapped shut went and folded. It also seems to have moisture in the cotton knitting and hose it every time I remove the cushion to fold and store the entire bottom edge of it is moist. I am guessing they didn’t store it in a temperature controlled environment and it got wet or it got wet in shipping however there was no rain from the time I ordered it to the time it arrived

Love how portable this is, very sturdy, a little squeaky, but a good value. It is a little on the big bulky side but if you have space it's worth taking on your trips. I don't really care for looks but I guess it's looks good, I worry about the functional part and it does the job.

I bought this for going to look at stars with my boyfriend. We were previously using an air mattress that was bulky and hard to set up. We can both cuddle up in this chair, and it’s super simple to fold back up and put away after. Easy to carry out to a field or wherever, comfy and affordable.

Good product, sturdy and easy to both store away and set up. Absolutely, an additional thicker, firmer mattress will be required for true comfort. Mattress included is thin and near nonexistent.
