Helinox Lite Cot - Stretcher / Sleep System - Black / Blue

Featherlight weight with outstanding packability, the Lite Cot is a design achievement – a true backpacking cot. Creativity, advanced materials and innovative constructions come together in a backcountry bed that weighs under 1.3kg, but provides a stable, supportive, comfortable sleeping platform that’s a significant upgrade from hard, uneven ground. 

Surface tension comes from the light and strong DAC Aluminum press fit legs. Part of the Lite Cot’s easy set-up, they keep up to 120 kg 12.7 cm off the ground while maintaining comfort and support that won’t sag during the night. Packing into a tight, streamlined 12.7 cm x 53.3 cm cylinder, the disassembled cot slides easily into your pack for transport, and its durable and UV resistant materials and construction make for years of more comfortable backpacking and camping.

Please note:

• Lite Cot features snap-fit legs that are different to Cot One's lever system

• The bed is rated to 120 kg, however campers around 75 kg and under will be the most comfortable

• Adult strength is required for assembly and disassembly.

Assembly:

• Assemble the two long poles and feed these through the sides of the fabric

• Assemble the legs

• With one long edge of the Cot on the ground and the other above it (so the cot is vertical), snap one end of the leg into the lower side pole. Then using your body weight, flex the leg until it snaps into the top side pole. Repeat until all legs are fitted

Disassembly is the same procedure in reverse. Stand the cot on its side and use body weight to remove the legs from the top side pole.
