Naturehike GreenWild Ultralight Folding Camping Cot, Black

I’m pretty impressed with this cot. It is really easy to set up. You simply thread the two metal poles through the sides, and then you assemble the 5 crossbars and they pop onto the poles with no difficulty. It’s just as easy to take apart. Compared to some full-size camping cots I’ve wrestled with, this is about a million times easier.

I’m also impressed that it is plenty tight, with no noticeable sagging, and quite sturdy. It’s also comfortable. You’ll want to pair it with some kind of pad, of course, but it doesn’t need to be super thick because the cot is far more comfortable than hard ground. As a side-sleeper, I have used various backpacking-style inflatable sleeping pads with great success.

I find the cot to be wide enough for comfort. It is exactly 6 feet long, so it just barely fits in my truck bed, and I use it for vehicle camping. Most backpackers would not consider carrying it due to weight. However, at under 5 lbs it really isn’t too much heavier than the 2-3 lb camp chairs some people like to bring. On short trips where maximum comfort is desired, I would not hesitate to strap it to my pack.

Would have been great if it had all the parts

Works great, have used the cot for several multi that camps. No problems suppporting my 180 lbs. relatively easy to assemble or take down if you follow the instructions. The video helps, but the instructions printed on the fabric are correct

It is low, kneel beside it to get on, roll off onto your knees to get off

Very comfortable, super light weight

Tuve unas camas con soportes transversales 100% de metal, que se insertaban en orificios de los rieles longitudinales, desafortunadamente alguien se las llevó, este concepto es igual pero las partes de carga son de plástico. Eso da garantía de que en un par de usos el producto quedará unitil, normal en la ingeniería de consumo del asia

Note: From pictures and specs, the Sutekus cot appears to be the exact same thing as the Marchway cot.

My initial reaction was that the Naturehike was sturdier and better built. The side rails on the Naturehike have a larger diameter than the Sutekus (0.69″ vs 0.51″). Also the Naturehike leg assembly tubes have square ends so that they lock into the proper orientation whereas the Sutekus legs can ‘swivel’ (the ends rotate independently). But after setting up both cots and lying down on each, they both seemed equally sturdy (maybe a slight edge to Naturehike). The fabric weight and stitching seemed comparable. Clearly, these cots are not meant to be used as a trampoline. I would recommend a certain degree of gentleness especially getting on and off the cots. And they ARE low to the ground – it might be easier to roll out of the cot to stand up.

Setup was easy. Some people felt they were too hard to bend the leg assemblies to attach them to the side poles. I did not feel this was a problem as long as you assemble the cot on its side and use the ground to help you flex the assembly between the side rails.

Both cots were really comfortable (especially compared to the ground). The Naturehike is two inches narrower than the Sutekus, but I didn’t feel like the Naturehike was too narrow. BTW, I’m 5’8″ and 175lbs. – I can’t comment on their 330 lb rating, but it seems 330 lbs might be bit too much for their design. Also I felt the Naturehike had a firmer surface. Lying on my back or my side was equally comfortable. I didn’t feel like I needed a sleeping pad for comfort, but for cool/cold nights a pad is a good idea for insulation.

I’ve never been in a tent with a perfectly flat floor and I was a little worried that this would be a problem. But an uneven surface did not really present a problem for either cot. There is enough flex in the frame that they handle minor floor bumps and lumps.

They both came in at basically the same weight on my kitchen scale (Naturehike: 4lb 12oz, Sutekus: 4lb 11oz, both with bag). Unless you really need a flat sleeping surface, this seems a bit heavy for backpacking. But for car tent camping, they’re great and fold up small enough to be a no-brainer to include on your next car camping trip.

Assembly note: The side poles go into their pockets only from one end. People have commented that the ends were stitched shut – this is true for one end. The other end has a small hole where the poles can go into.
