01. Support and support structure
One of the core elements of a camping bed is its bracket and support structure.
Bracket: Most camping bed brackets are made of aluminum, characterized by being sturdy and lightweight; There are also heavy-duty camping beds made of steel brackets that can withstand heavy weight without bending or breaking. Therefore, before purchasing a camping bed, it is important to carefully check the bed's load-bearing capacity.
Nowadays, aluminum fabric camp cot foldable camping bed owners adopt three types of support structure designs:
Straight leg structure: It is a relatively traditional type of structure.
C-shaped leg structure: more suitable for indoor use.
X-shaped leg structure: It can provide high support, and currently camping beds mostly use this structure.
Reminder: If you plan to use a camping bed inside the tent, please ensure that the support legs are protected by rubber caps to prevent them from piercing, tearing, or wearing the tent bottom fabric.
02. Weight
The average weight of aluminium folding camping bed with aluminum brackets ranges from 6 to 9 kilograms, while heavy-duty, steel bracket, or oversized camping beds are heavier. Nowadays, with the development of fabrics and craftsmanship, many ultra light camping beds have also emerged. What is the use of ultra light? When hiking and camping, the longer you walk, the more you want to bring some lightweight equipment.
This ultra-light camping bed is made of ultra-light aviation aluminum brackets and tear resistant 420D polyester fiber, which is high-strength and durable. It weighs only 2.2KG, almost the weight of a large bottle of drinks. With a weight of 120KG, you can enjoy a comfortable camping experience. It's really worth it!
03. Fabric
Nowadays, camping bed fabrics are mostly made of polyester fiber or nylon fabric, which has good support and is easy to clean, avoiding the characteristics of heavy cotton fabric and easy to get dirty. However, if you want to purchase that retro form of cotton camping bed, it is also feasible! In summer, you can also choose to use a camping bed made of mesh fabric, which is even cooler.
04. Comfort and Support
Camping beds mainly rely on the tension of brackets and fabrics to provide a comfortable sleeping surface. However, different people have different sleep habits and have different requirements for the softness of the bed and pillows. What should we do?
The tightness of some camping beds can be adjusted by adjusting the surface fabric to a state of full tension or a slightly relaxed state; Moreover, the structure of the camping bed can also be adjusted, such as Feistel's latest lounge chair, which can be adjusted from three angles: reclining, lying flat, half sitting... you can choose from three states.
After deployment, the average width of the camping bed is 63cm and the length is 190cm, which can accommodate most adults. But some brands also widen the width to provide a more comfortable experience.
For example, this camping bed has a width of 68cm, which has been widened by 5cm, making it more spacious and comfortable to use. And the legs under this folding bed can be disassembled, and the height of the folding bed can be adjusted as needed. There are two adjustable heights of 18cm/38cm.
06. Foldability
For portability and storage, almost all camping beds can be folded to some extent. Some are designed with an integrated fabric and bracket, which can be folded and stored into a smaller area through four options.
Some camping beds also have a detachable design, where the fabric and support can be completely disassembled, resulting in a smaller storage area and easier storage. For example, this Feistel camping bed, after being stored, has a volume equivalent to a large bottle of cola and is very lightweight and portable, making it the best choice for backpacking and hiking.
