      I have used my Rol-a-cot with a tent for a couple years and it is THE WAY TO GO. I have been in heavy bugs and heave rain and I have never had a problem.

      The tent I use and it is awesome is the thermarest cot tent. It is made to be on one of their cots. I would not use their cot but on a rol-a-cot it is bad ass.

      It is the answer you are looking for. I have tested it and love it.

      Do you have the regular or the Large/XL? I saw those before but wasn't sure how well they would work with the roll a cot. Great to hear it works well...might have to find a deal on that tent.

      That said...it doesn't seem all that different from many 1 person tents that are cheaper. Mostly just the fly not being as extensive. This alps one looks reasonable...

      Part of me is kind of tempted to get a single wall tent like the Black Diamond...but there isn't one that would be perfect for a cot tent and they are way expensive.

      I don't have cots, but both of my kids have these tents and I think you would be hard pressed to put cots in the based on the "roof" line.... You would be into the front and the back even at 6-8 inches above the floor.
