Camping Cots?

[phtest]

They are pricey yes and big when folded up. Was thinking of it as an alternative to a roof top tent. Trying to avoid carrying too much on the roof. That and I just like the look of them. My camps are usually simple, so this will be like a hotel.

Thought I'd mention I have a jet tent bunker and it is the best thing I've bought. It folds up nicely, not as big as you may think, and it is very versatile and comfy! Love it.

I just bought a bivvy bag and it was delivered today. Basically a compact swag and can still be used on a stretcher and anywhere else you could use 1.

Needed something with lower side entry until I can use the swag properly and this fit the bill nicely and was cheap.

Hi we have one, single tho, love it and heaps more comfy than my Boab swag. Its not the canvas type and can get condensation in it if its all sealed up but no probs. Kids like using it to and put an extra self inflating mattress in it and comfort!!

I have a bunker too and its awesome. I was in the market for a dome swag then stumbled on the bunker, at around the same price as a decent brand swag ($389 delivered from Snowys)
A friend bought one as soon as he saw mine and we used them for a couple nights down Yeagarup, he also commented it was the best nights sleep when camping ever, I agree!

A lot of my mates are now converted too after seeing my bunker. Definitely a nice piece of camping kit!

I have a question for those running bunkers. My one has a few deficiencies, that I've noticed. I don't know, maybe I'm doing something wrong but yeah...
Dumb question time. Do you sleep with the head on the narrow end or the open end ??? Reason I'm asking is my bunker XL slopes down at the high end, and I'm not a fan of sleeping with elevated feet. This is with fully stretched out and setup.

The other thing is, the high end poles at the top want to come inwards toward each other, and with the canvas over it, this doesn't allow the canvas to be stretched and is left somewhat loose on top.

And the other thing is, I just read the manual and it tells me to extend front and rear poles... The only 2 poles extending on my XL are the high end ones?
