How portable is the full size mattress? Could it be taken camping or is it too heavy/bulky to transport?

It would depend on how much space you have in your car. Its bulkier than a normal sleeping bag simply because it's bigger. Its very maneuverable though. Think about it like its a double the size sleeping bag and you're probably not far off at all.

It's bigger than you want it to be, but not as big as you fear.I did a road trip with some friends last year and used it to sleep on the floor in hotel rooms. Worked nicely for that. As long as you tie it together, it can be carried.

It's not to heavy but it is a little bit bulky. I guess it's about how much room you got in you're vehicle .

I personally think it's too heavy/bulky to transport. It's really big and a pain to roll up and put away. I would not recommend it for camping.

I actually bought it it for that reason, to take it when we go camping, it's not heavy but it is a bit bulky but well worth the effort to sleep more comfortable.

You could roll this up and take it camping but I wouldn't suggest it unless the tent is right next to the car. You can roll it up so it's not to bulky but it is heavy.

Weighs about 5 lbs. Too bulky for backcountry camping but if you're car camping, no sweat. It rolls up to about the size of two sleeping bags set next to one another.

Besides it being very confined feeling because you cant sit up in it. its exactly as you describe. they also have a two person tent kote. Its not for back packing its way to heavy.

Def could not be used for backpacking, at least for me. It's bulky and heavy. But warm for car camping. I dont have the stuffed dimensions b\c this was a gift for a car campet-person.

This mattress is a light weight item, and have to packed in vacuum compacted bag for easy shipment. It might roll up, but easy to flatten if adult sleep on it. The out-coat feels good in touch with skin. Kids will love to sleep on it every day.

Packing size: It has been a few months but as I recall, about as big around a large dinner plate and the width of the bed. It went into our camper door well and we had no problem moving the package around. However, it is heavy-around 60-80 pounds. Just undo the packing as instructed and let the mattress "rest and expand" for stated length of time. Used ours all summer and fall for extended stays and just love it. Hope this helps.

I have had about 75 pounds in it and it held up well but you will need to put something flat in the bottom so it won't sag on the wheels, just pack carefully and you'll be fine. I took mine camping on a beach in deep sand and had my tent, camping equip., cooler, etc in mine it was a back saver.

It's very portable, an 11 year old slim girl can carry it. We bring it to camping. It can be adjusted in several positions so I guess you can use it as a ballpark chair, too. Store away when it rains. I saw comments that the metal parts corrode, but of course!

My husband bought this specifically for camping because air mattresses always seem to spring a leak. It is pretty bulky and heavy, but he likes it.

This bed has been great so far. I use it for camping. I'm 240 lbs and my son is about 80 lbs. The key with any air bed is to not over inflate.

did you actually take it to camping? I want to buy it for the same purpose. How was your experience with it?

Nancy the cot I purchased it the large King cot as I am 250+lbs and 6:1. It weighs about 18lbs. I went camping and had it carried in the back of a pickup truck with the rest of my equipment. I would not want to carry it on a hike. It is not made fore that. It is heavey duty for someone like me who wants extra with it is 32Inches across and I like that compared to the average cots. I will not fall out of it. If you want a spare bed at home or can take it in a truck or camper it is creat but not for the hiker. Hope this helps. Don Jones aka graypeddler@aol.com

It's pretty bulky - definitely for car camping and not hiking. It's 17" diameter, 29" tall and 51" radius and ours is packed pretty tight. It does fit in our roof box though. It's a great sleeping bag and so warm for cooler nights. I highly recommend it.

I have a king size and I definitely wouldn't consider it for camping. If you get a smaller one, then maybe...Even then, I think it would be difficult. Unless of course you have an RV and just want to store somewhere in there till needed. You might be able to get a single size folded up and stuffed into a really big plastic bag that air gets sucked out if. If they even make them that big.

Says right in the description. About 34"x34"x7" and it is heavy so unless you're car camping take a roll up tent-this thing cant be carried for too long of a distance-I give it 1 minute of travel before the strap or my back breaks. I sleep like a million bucks in it though and usually done setting up in a fragment of the time as compared to other conventional tents.

I have a queen sized double stack Coleman air mattress and it fits in with ease. Plus room to move around the bed and stand up fully,though I'm only 5'3", there's enough room for a 6ft person to also get around with ease. Lanterns can be placed on the floor or there's a small hook on the top for mini lanterns. Nothing too heavy though. There's like 2 extra feet of room on each side of the air mattress. I also use fans at festivals... In a normal tent you die in the heat, but with the rain flap off and a small fan the tent stays cool because of all the mesh and a good breeze. You won't regret buying this tent. I've used it more than I can count since I bought it last year it's roomy and tough, holds up in terrential winds and rain even half-assed steaked down.

while the cot supports adult weight (and is quite comfortable as is) I think a twin mattress would be a clumsy fit and too heavy. Camp cots are low to the ground and not very wide. A more conventional choice for the height and width I think you're looking for would be a roll-away bed in my opinion.
