When camping or going outdoors with our 3 children, I am always looking for a cot where they can take a nap, relax or have quite time in nature. This was perfect, either my oldest with my youngest can sit on it or middle with youngest. Or individually take a nap or unwind from a long day. Super easy to set up or put away, the canopy blocks of 98% UVA and UBA rays. It's also removable, in case the kids do not want the canopy on. Super easy to clean up in case any messes are made. The metal frame supports kids up to 72lbs, which is nice to know when going with multiple children. It also comes with a carry bag, great for outdoors, or even backyard fun. It's very easy to put together straight from the box and easy to stow away for either storage or put in the bag for traveling. I like that it's wide enough for the kids to play on and also soft enough so they don't have to sit in the hard floor or dirty grass.
