Anybody use tent cot?

I bought SUV tent last year and had a hard time setting it up properly and I think that I don't need that much space when I go overnight on a road trip. I looked into a couple of options and got interested in a tent cot. I wonder if it is as easy to set up as it look?

A few people I know recommended the Oztrail Easy Fold Stretcher Tenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRvSy1gWer8 which looks quite easy to set up and fold. If any of you have experience with one of these, it would be nice if you could share your user experience. Thanks!

Then buy it somewhere else because they hate off roaders and dirt bikers.
Tent cots work great, even better under an EZ-Up.

Yes, I used mine on a trip and used it for a couple of nights. I chose this tent to keep me off the ground and lying in puddles from rain.The only problem was the condensation and being a little short(I'm 6'6"). To fix the condensation, I'm going to try install some mess on top to help vent(small enough to keep out mosquitoes). To over come the tent being to short, I just placed my helmet under my knees(to arch them) and was surprisingly comfortable. camptentsreview.com
I want to put aprons down by the legs to stop cross breezes from chilling me from underneath. The apron will also hide/store stuff that you put underneath(riding boots airing out,...)

It's in the blue bag w/sleeping bag, chair, and full size pillow.

I dont know the brand I have but I got one.

Works wonders when fishing and the mosquitoes are out.
