Abstract

A kit for converting a cross-legged folding cot into a tiered cot, which stilt legs having a longitudinal axis, a top end and a bottom end. A female coupling is positioned at the top end of each of the stilt legs. Each female coupling is offset from the longitudinal axis by between 45 degrees and 65 degrees, and is adapted to receive a leg from a first cross-legged folding cot. With each female coupling holding a leg of a first cross-legged folding cot, the first cot is effectively elevated, such that gear can be stowed or a second cot can be positioned in the space provided beneath the first cot between the stilt legs.
