Try is out right away with having your toddler sleep on it to see if it will not break. I had opened this up a few times when I gave it to my granddaughter at Christmas and it was fine. However, she never actually slept on it until months later. After she slept on it a few times, it broke. It was past the return date (due to us not using it right away) so it could not be returned. :(

This product is great for hotels stays, going to a friend's house or grandmom's. I use it when my grandson sleeps in my room. It's great for young kids who don't like to nap away from their parents, so I use it down stairs at nap time so I can continue doing what I need to do. The carrying bag is great just put in trunk and go. If you go on a picnic, it travels just like your picnic chair and the child don't have to lay on the grass if he/she is sleepy. I really love it.

We bought this cot for a family vacation. Our 2 year old usually sleeps in a toddler bed and just isn't ready for a regular bed. We had previously brought along a pack and play and used that as a bed. This is so much smaller and easier. Its way lighter and easy to carry. It requires less space to set up. The set up is so simple it couldn't be easier. Basically, you take it out of the carrying case and unfold it. That's it. My only complaint has to do with the carrying case. Ours ripped after only one use. Other than that, I love the cot.

This is a great travel cot for toddlers who have outgrown the pack and play but aren't ready to sleep in an adult bed. We bought it for our two year old son to sleep over at grandma's house and he loved it. It is so simple to set up (just unfolds) and packs away very nice in the carry bag. The only thing it could use is a little padding. I highly recommend this product for anyone in need of a good travel bed solution for their young child.

I HIGHLY recommend this product. I did not notice any hard bar in the middle and anyway, my 30-lb. 2 year old is barely heavy enough to indent the bed enough to touch the bar anyway. I LOVE the portability, size, and quality of the product. It even fits under his feet on the floor of the car, that's how compact it is! No need to take up valuable luggage space in the back. He slept great on it too, even though we were away from home and he is not great at changes. He seemed to think it was just like his toddler bed at home. Don't hesitate if you are thinking of getting this product!

I PURCHASED THIS FOR MY GRANDSON. HE HAD ONE THAT HE JUMPED ON AND IT BROKE. HE WAS HEARTBROKEN. WE FOUND THIS ONE AND RECEIVED IT IN TWO DAYS. HE WAS SO EXCITED AND CALLED AND SAID''GRANNY THIS ONE HAS A STICKER THAT SAYS DO NOT JUMP." HE ACTUALLY SLEEPS ON IT EACH NIGHT. I WAS SO EXCITED TO FIND IT AND WE GOT EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE WITH THE DELIVERY. THANK YOU WAL-MART FOR MAKING A LITTLE BOY HAPPY.

I purchased these for the grandkids when they stay the night. Which sometimes can be three nights a week, depending on their parents work schedule. We do not have a lot of room, so these were perfect. I did read the other reviews before purchasing and after the first night, I returned to Walmart and purchased the half inch foam (twin) and cut it for their cots. Not because of any complaints, but because they would be sleeping on them so often. The foam fit right under the sheet that comes with the cot & seemed a bit more comfortable. My grandgirls are 4 & 2 years old and love their new beds at Pappy & Jamma's house!

I like the size and portability, but there's a strap in the middle that makes the bed high in the middle and low everywhere else. If the strap was not there, it would be much more comfortable for my little one to use for a nap. I guess you get what you pay for.

I bought this cot for my 3 year old and she could not get comfortable on it. The middle seam has no give to it so it was like she had a bar going though her side. She attempted to sleep on it 2 nights and only lasted about 5 minutes. The cot was sturdy and very compact, we just couldn't get past the tight seam across the middle. We have returned it.

I purchased this cot for my grandson to sleep in at our home and it was definitely money well spent. This cot is very easy to set up and take down. It's light enough that even my 2 1/2 year old grandson can drag it across the floor. It comes in a heavy duty canvas bag and doesn't take much room to store. The only drawback (and it's not a big one) is that it's only 6 " or so off the ground, so, giving 'night-night' hugs, reading stories, etc., is a bit challenging. I would definitely recommend this product.
