Made for [camping purposes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wind-anchor-tent), it elevates the base so that it does not rest on the ground. Cots are very progressive when tackling the outdoors as a place to rest comfortably. It is made from mesh or fabric materials and efficiently closes up as a sleeping space for one person. When the tent is folded up, it can be [easily carried around](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wind-anchor) in the car and assembled when needed. When the tent is all packed up, it weighs only 2.5 lbs. To activate it, the tent uses shock-corded poles to lock the frame in place with the pole clips simplifying the process.
