 Posted: Mon Nov 03, 2003 6:58 am Post subject: Childs Cot FYI |
 |
|
I recently bought a childs cot from the Samba classifieds. The one that goes above the two front seats. My daughter and I went to my parents property this weekend to test it out. For some reason my daughter didn't like the idea of sleepin in the cot while I was in the main bed.
After listening to 5 minutes of complaining I told her that she could sleep in the bed and I would try the cot. I slept the entire night in that cot.
I think I heard that it could hold 95 lbs. I'm 5'6" 150 lbs. The cot is pleanty wide enough but a little too short. I didn't have to sleep in a fetal position but I had to sleep with my legs bent.
I know that you larger guys couldn't do it but I was impressed that I held my weight. And it was comfortable. |

Actually the way it's designed your weight holds the bars locked in place.
As long as the canvas will support you and you don't bend the bars your're ok.
Jeremy, what is your avitar? Is that you? |

It the messy dude from that Alltel commercial where the chick takes the pic with her phone a sends it to her friend saying " I found your new boyfriend, don't you just love your new boy friend". I am a little better looking but not much.

One of my friends bought a 69 westy a few years back and tried out the overhead cot. He went right through it. It was just a little dry rotted.
