Standing the cot on its end and using your foot to hold the bar down and use the cot as leverage makes the whole process very easy. My 13 year old grandson does it by himself. I’m 60 with disabilities and find this method very helpful and easy. There’s a few videos on youtube that shows how to use that technique. 😊
Indeed you are correct. I have seen those also. But I do think it must be noted as a review... this is not plug and play the way most might think. So the flaws have to be pointed out, even if it is good once it is setup.
