This "My Cot" is something I've wanted to purchase for sometime now and I first saw it at another site for a heck of a lot more, so price wise this is IT! Upon getting the product which as luck would have it i used immediately cause it was carnival weekend here in Trinidad, we went to the beach, my mother-in-laws, and frankly the kids use it at home all the time, they actually prefer the cot to the couch....lol. It's quick and easy to set up and i taught my 7yr old son how to set it up and poof my job got even easier....lol in fact I'm going to be purchasing another 1 pretty soon.... thanks walmart of all your products this one has made me the happiest.

The cots were purchased for my visiting Grandson's. The cots are appropriate for 2 to 5 year old children. the cots are sturdy, but if you have tall children may not be long enough. The need for additional padding would be nice. I will have to return one of them as my 6 year old grandson is too tall for it and slept better on the floor in a sleeping bag. The cot folds very compactly for storage. I found that for the younger grandson that a foam mattress pad cut up and placed under the sheet helped a lot. This is a great idea for temporary sleeping for a small child.

This cot is great for traveling and anywhere you need to set up an extra bed. My only warning to those buying it is that I would say it is really for those children 5 and under. My daughter is almost 3 and she fits well on it. She loves sleeping on it. I put down a sleeping bag on top of it to make a bit more cushy!

My daughter 2.5 yrs still sleeps in a crib, but we were going away to visit family and needed something for her to sleep in, so I bought this. She likes laying on it and sitting on it while watching TV, but she ended up sleeping with us instead-combination of new house and new bed didn't go over well with her. However, I would still recommend this.

This is a nice product but I was surprised that when you open it up and extend there is no locking mechanism to keep it in place. I guess the weight of the child is what is suppose to keep it level. It makes me nervous when my two year old grandchild goes to sit on this because I am waiting for it to fold up on her. Will only be using this in extreme emergencies.

Awesome bed for the child visiting grandma that doesn't really need a rental crib anymore. The bed folds up like a bag chair and has its own case. It's very easy to open and set up. We used a chaise cushion on top to make it more comfy. We put it in a corner so only one side and the end was open. Our 2 1/2 year old grandson sleep well and peacefully.

This bed worked great! It's folds down and fits smoothly into its carry bag. Comes with a fitted cover/sheet as well. When purchasing this bed I read the reviews and one person suggested buy a foam pad to lay down under the sheet, I took this suggestion and was glad I did. The is comfortable without the extra pad but I wanted my lil one to be totally comfortable. I found it helpful to bring an sextra crib sheet to cover the bed it fits just as well and didn't slide off. My child slept through the night and called it her cute lil bed! We were happy campers!

I love it! We bought this for our upcoming vacation, and will also use it when we travel home for the holidays. My 2 year old thinks it's really neat, and I think it's sturdy and folds up so compactly that it will be so easy to travel with. I love that it came with a sheet as well. I will be buying another one for my 1 year old as well. Good buy for the price!

I'm a big reader of reviews, I find you can never trust the star rating especially since people sometimes rate things they don't own "5 stars - this looks really cute!", or give things 1 star because they can't read the description. I already owned one of these and was contemplating buying one for my daughter. Our existing one has the strap in the center, and a manufacture date of OCT-2010. After reading the reviews, I was confused because some state "the older one was better" and visa versa, so I wasn't sure which was the newer model, but decided to risk it and buy a second one. I picked up a second one at my local Walmart in blue, and was happy to see that the strap has been REMOVED in the newer models, this particular one had a manufacture date of SEP-2012. We then ordered another one in pink for my daughter. Happily when it arrived at the store, it also had a 2012 date, and was of the newer design. If you purchase one and it has the strap across the center, return it and see if you can exchange it for a newer one. (Walmart was happy to return my older blue one for me.) The manufacture date is on a sticker on the outside of the box right beneath the UPC. So to clarify, the company has updated this product and improved upon it. No more annoying middle strap. ----------- After having purchased three of these in total, I have to say my kids (2 & 3) LOVE them. We purchased a Foam Mattress Topper in a Full, cut it in half, and put it under the fitted sheet for extra comfort. Well worth the $11 it cost at Walmart. The kids nap on them, relax and watch TV on them, even stopped hopping into bed with us at night, and instead will sleep on these in our bedroom. They refuse to let me put them away. We're headed on a 20 hour car trip next month and have differing accommodations, so these cots will work perfectly for the cabin, house, and hotel room. This is an excellent purchase, and it's a great value for the money. I am so glad I risked buying a second (and third) one to find that the design has been modified. They also fit the "Sleeping Bag Buds" we bought at Walmart last year PERFECTLY, and with a little compression, you can roll the foam mattress topper up and keep it in the travel bag with the cot, preserving how easy it is to store when not in use.

Bought this for my 2.5 yr old for traveling this summer. She is quite particular, so I set it up in our livingroom for several days so she could get used to it. Padded it with a blanket and ripped out the middle strap-thingy (manufactered May 2011, not Oct). She still isn't too thrilled about it, but my 5 yr old loves it and I ended up taking a 2 hour nap on it (I am small). I also plan on using this for them to sit on at the park. Thanks to all the reviewers. Your input was very helpful.
