I had been looking for a cot similar to the Helinox because I liked the design, just not the price. The Arctic Camping Cot was the perfect answer. It’s exactly like the Helinox, only half the price. Comfortable and well-made. Very happy with the purchase. The photo shows me testing out how I'll use it in my 4Runner. Fits perfectly, will need some slight mods to make it fit the odd shape of the 4Runner.
I ordered this in advance of a backcountry hunt this year and after receiving it and putting it together I'm pleased. It seems well built and comfortable. Alaska Gear Company shipped it very quickly too. From order to my door was literally 2 days.
