LuxuryLite UltraLite Cot Assembly

How to put together the LuxuryLite UlraLite Cot. It takes about 3 minutes and no big muscles.When you're done, it will not spring a leak and go flat in the night like an air mattress or self-inflating pad. The 6 tension bows create five comfort zones that cradle each part of your body individually.

Yes, your concentrated weight will press the fabric to the ground. That is why it does not break. When you lay out, you float.

@luxlite with the hi-rise kit, do you still touch the ground?

[luxlite]

Yes you still touch... . (This thing weighs the same a a Nalgene bottle full of water.) The center two bows come with twist bows (a pair of tubes) so adding the hirise kit (4 pairs of tubes to make twist bows for the other four locations) does not change the middle.

"My Ultralite cot been going strong for four years of continuous expedition use now, which is very good going, most equipment doesn’t last that long under these conditions let alone ultra light gear." -Stuart Goring

@luxlite curious about the legs. are they plastic or carbon fiber?

[guyoverthre]

When you sit on the bed, are you suppose to touch the floor?

I absolutely swear by this cot. I have the cot + hi rise kit + cool mat (probably appx 3lbs sum). I am 6' 260lbs... and even for a fat one like myself this cot managed to float my hefty bottom off the ground all night, AND I toss-n-turn quite frequently AND no sore/sweaty back the next morning. Fits in a solo tent very nice. there is no doubt in my mind that if you sleep on it for just 1 night after a hike, you will never go back to those sleeping pads or infaltable mats.

It's worth the price! I've used a thermarest motorcycle camping for years, but the years caught up. Bad shoulders, bad knees and iffy back, I need more than a pad. Luxurylite is worth every penny. If you can sleep on a pad or are not tight tight for space, good for you. Small, light and comfortable is worth 219 to me.

@luxlite

I like the look of your cot. Carrying a rated load of 325lbs. at that size and weight is impressive. It might not be the cheapest, but given the materials and warranty it might be the cheapest in the long run. Some of the cheapest gear I've ever bought was expensive upfront but I only had to buy it once instead of buying it over and over again when it broke. Like buying a Jandd bag instead of the disposable Chinese stuff. Try getting those refurbed free.

P.S. Don't feed the trolls.

"That is $150 for 2lb of fabric and cord."

Um - $150 for Fabric, cord, mosquito netting, a tarp room for storage, a place to hang a water bottle and a light, and it keeps you off the ground. So far your product just isnt worth what YOU think it is.

@luxlite

Yeah, you're obviously not gettin' it. You just tried to hype the expense of lite materials and manufacturing... now you're comparing items of irrelevant functionality and manufacturing by cost/weight?.... yup, you've not a clue.

Try looking back at all the posts, seems a consensus here. You can't trade beans for a cow. Your customers are trying to tell you that all over this channel, read the posts and come back when you get your head out of the clouds. price it to sell and you will.
