What is the strength of the fabric. Would it be good for a sleeping cot and a person weighting 250 lbs.

Although it is a thick fabric, I am not sure if it would withstand that type of specific use. I almost think it would rip apart after several uses like that.

It holds up to 225 lbs just laying down, but you must be very careful to have no jumping or twisting the frame when moving it, as it us made of light pine and the joints will break. I have repaired mine with scrap wood and screws. It's fine for anyone to sleep on, you just have to assemble or move very carefully. No Jumping!

if you're asking this question it's not too heavy-quite lite as a matter of fact-if you weigh over 200 lbs I wouldn't as I'mabout 250 and the seams around the head end legs are splitting.time for the duct tape! good luck Frank

I set and lay on mine all the time and I am close to 275lbs. You will not have a problem and the material still looks new.

I am over 250 lbs. My husband around 190 lb. We love our mattress topper. Plan on taking it on vacation when we go. Hope this is helpful.

I only weigh 110 and felt the bottom give slightly. It will probably hold a lot more, but as I said in my review, the fabric was not taut, so that was the give.

Weighs about 30lbs. Too heavy for backpacking. There are better and lighter cots out there.

It is very sturdy. So far someone weighing 175 lbs has slept on it. I imagine it could handle a lot more weight.

don't know if pt over 250 lbs. but it works well for my mom who is bed bound, prevents bedsores and better compared to gel mattress, that does not allow any space for air to circulate in between repositioning. i would definitely recommend it to bed bound patients.

The weight limit is 250 Lbs. - so you could fit two people although it might not be too comfortable.

This cot is very sturdy and we put a queen mattress on it and it works great! We are very pleased with this cot. Hope this helps!

Hey Jessica. I like the Cot by itself. The Cot is really really BIG! It is taller, wider & longer than my GI Issued aluminum cot. It will definitely bounce a quarter....could even pass as a base drum I guess. I would recommend it for anybody over 200 pounds. You won't have to worry about rolling off this Cot. I recommend this Cot to all my friends & family. JJF

I'm using these as dog beds. My heaviest dog is 72 pounds. The manufacturer gives a maximum of 75 pounds for the cot. That is probably the most I would put on it. I've added the Dream on me Portable 3" mattress which I also got from Amazon and a standard pillow. Even though I would not put more weight than that on it, I can't emphasize how stable and solid the cot is if you adhere to the manufacturer's specs, i. e. 75 pounds max.

I had two adults sleep on this recently. They averaged 350lbs. there were no issues.

Although the manufacturer doesn't provide the exact number, 250 lbs will be fine. The bed/chair is pretty firm and will hold a good amount of weight

It is of average thickness for a sleeping bag. I've only used it on a cot and it's a great, roomy bag that kept me warm even on a couple of 40 degree nights in the Adirondacks. Remember though, even the thickest bag would compress under your weight if you're on something "hard". If you want comfort put it on a cot, or put an air mattress or a good quality pad between the bag and the hard surface.

Medium person up to 6" 200 lbs would be very comfortable. 250 may be ounishing it.
