Kakadu BlockOut Cot Tent For 1P
Kakadu BlockOut Cot Tent For 1P
The Kakadu BlockOut Stretcher Tent is an all-in-one cot tent that keeps you raised off the ground, cool, dark, and dry without any assembly. The instant fold-out stretcher frame unfolds and you are done. No poles to thread, no stakes required for setup, no separate cot to carry. The tent and the cot are one unit. Sit down, swing your legs over, and sleep elevated above mud, rocks, puddles, and insects.
BlockOut technology is the standout feature: the flysheet blocks 95% of light and reduces internal temperatures by up to 20 degrees F compared to standard tent fabrics. That means cooler sleep during the day, darker sleep at dawn, and less heat buildup in the afternoon. The 3000mm waterproof flysheet handles serious rain. Ultra-fine No-See-Um mesh keeps even the smallest insects out while maintaining airflow. Three D-shaped doors provide access from multiple sides. Included awning poles create a shaded porch area. Locking zippers add security. At 30.42 lbs, it packs down to 40.55" x 8.85" x 8.85" with the included carry bag. Supports up to 330 lbs. 1-year warranty.
Sleep High. Easy In, Easy Out.
The elevated cot design raises you off the ground so you never have to deal with mud, rocks, uneven terrain, or ground moisture soaking through your sleeping setup. Getting in and out is as simple as sitting on the edge and swinging your legs over. No crawling through a ground-level door on your hands and knees. The cot height also means better airflow underneath you, which helps with temperature regulation in warm conditions.
BlockOut Technology: 95% Light Block. 20 Degrees F Cooler.
The BlockOut flysheet is not a standard rainfly. It blocks 95% of light and reduces internal temperatures by up to 20 degrees F. This makes a massive difference for midday naps, sleeping in past sunrise, or camping in hot climates where standard tent fabrics turn the interior into an oven by mid-morning. The BlockOut fabric works in combination with the 3000mm waterproof rating, so you get both thermal protection and weather protection from the same flysheet.
3000mm Waterproof. Elevated Above Puddles.
The 3000mm waterhead-rated flysheet keeps you dry in serious rain. The elevated cot design means you never wake up in a puddle that formed overnight or deal with ground moisture wicking through a tent floor. Water runs off the flysheet and drains underneath the cot. Between the waterproof rating above and the elevation below, this is one of the driest ways to sleep outdoors.
Ultra-Fine Mesh. 3 D-Shaped Doors.
No-See-Um ultra-fine mesh keeps even the smallest biting insects out while maintaining full airflow through the tent. Three D-shaped doors provide access from multiple sides, so you can orient the tent based on wind direction, camp layout, or personal preference. Open one door for a cross-breeze, open all three for maximum ventilation on hot nights, or zip everything closed for full weather and insect protection.
More Features
Near-Vertical Walls: The tent walls are designed to be near-vertical rather than sloped, maximizing interior space so you do not feel cramped inside. More headroom, more shoulder room, more usable volume from the same footprint.
4 Large Internal Pockets: Keep your phone, headlamp, glasses, book, and essentials organized and within reach. No digging through bags in the dark.
Locking Zipper: A locking zipper on the main door provides added peace of mind and security when you are sleeping or away from the tent.

Frequently Asked Questions
How easy is it to set up the BlockOut Stretcher Tent?
No assembly required. The cot tent has an instant fold-out stretcher frame, so you just unfold it, attach the flysheet if needed, and you are good to go. No poles to thread, no separate cot to set up. The tent and cot are one unit that deploys in seconds.
Will the BlockOut fabric really keep me cooler?
Yes. BlockOut technology reduces internal temperatures by up to 20 degrees F and blocks 95% of light, giving you a cooler, darker sleep. This is especially noticeable for midday naps, sleeping in past sunrise, or camping in hot climates where standard tent fabrics turn the interior into an oven. The difference is measurable and immediate.
Is the cot tent waterproof?
Yes. The 3000mm waterhead-rated flysheet keeps you dry in wet conditions, while the elevated cot design means no worries about ground moisture or unexpected puddles. Water runs off the flysheet and drains underneath the cot. Between the waterproof rating above and the elevation below, this is one of the driest ways to sleep outdoors.
How much weight does the cot support?
The powdercoated steel frame supports up to 330 lbs. The frame uses a locking design that prevents accidental collapse when you sit down, shift positions, or get in and out during the night.

The cot tent folds down to 40.55" x 8.85" x 8.85" and weighs 30.42 lbs. It comes with a carry bag for transport. This is a vehicle-based camping product, not a backpacking tent. Plan your vehicle storage accordingly.
