One of the reasons we purchased a VW ID Buzz was the potential to set it up for camping. We didn't want a fancy, expensive set up. Just a little more room for storing our minimal gear and something that wouldn't take up too much space in our garage when it wasn't in use.

The Hideaway Platform was the perfect solution for us. Easy to install, easy to use. I made a small modification to the straps that attach to the forward platform edge so they would be easier to use. With adjustable legs and adjustable length of the frame and the perfect width for the back of the Buzz, the platform is great. We are using 4" firm foam mattress and it's very comfy. This is so much better than what I was thinking I might have to build.

Have fun out there!

Just awesome. So much attention to detail! Perfect for my minivan, I love it! Special thanks to Reed for signing the enclosed card by hand!

I have a lot of cots. This is the only one that fits in my Tacoma perfectly. Love that bins also fit underneath. Probably paid too much with the Canada US exchange but could not find an equivalent product in Canada.

I purchased the Hideaway 30” Single for my 2011 RAV4.
I participate in various gravel bike races and sometimes camp onsite. I want to be able to sleep comfortably in my SUV and originally intended to build a DIY wooden platform.
Then after seeing the Hideaway and the ability to quickly assemble/disassemble the unit was the decision game changer for me. It’s light and can be adjusted very quickly to have it positioned correctly in vehicle.

I used it for the first time this past weekend and it was a breeze to setup and with my Exped Megat on top I had surprisingly comfortable good night’s sleep on it.

I highly recommend this setup and totally worth the cost in my opinion.

It fits perfectly in our Ineos Grenadier, with lots of room underneath for our front runner wolf boxes. Well made and easy to setup…

I suffered last year when sleeping. I went looking for something to sleep on that was comfortable. I found this magamat. It is exactly what I was looking for. It is made of sturdy material. I can easily adjust the firmness. It comes with two different pumps. I can hardly wait to get out camping again.

We’ve been incredibly impressed with the Hideaway sleeping platform so far. One of the biggest standouts is how easy it is to set up and remove from the truck when needed. It feels thoughtfully designed for people who actually use their vehicles for adventure and daily life, not just for a showroom build.

The adjustability has also been a huge plus. Being able to customize the platform height to fit different gear underneath makes the setup far more functional for real-world trips. Whether we’re packing recovery gear, storage boxes, or camping equipment, it’s easy to configure the space in a way that works for us.

Overall, the Hideaway feels like gear that was built with longevity in mind. It’s functional, durable, and clearly designed for years of use. Supporting domestic manufacturing and local production is also something that matters to us, and it’s great to see a company prioritizing quality craftsmanship close to home.

I am 75 years. Still love to travel & camp on my own.. I bought this because it is well made & LIGHT enough for me to move in & out of my Forester, by myself.
I value my Independence ! This set up is perfect.
I often need to pull over & nap for a awhile when driving distance. Or even in town. Getting older is no picnic!
This gives me a much needed sense of security.
( the front seat doesnt always cut it.)
Lightweight. SOLIDLY MADE.
Worth every penny!
Thank You , for this beautiul car bed, from an old lady , still trying...

I have been looking for a sleeping system for my Ineos Grenadier for a while. I am a keen hiker and wanted to be able to drive to the trailhead the night before, set up quickly a comfortable bed, rest and then hike at sunrise without the need to pitching a tent or getting an expensive hotel room.
The Sidekick 24" Sleeping Platform does this and more. I am solo and sleep on my side and so the 24" Sidekick is perfect, it also allows me to just fold down the 60 section of my 60/40 reach bench seat.
The Step Floor leg kit works a treat as my rear bench does not fold down flush with the floor.
I read some other reviews and also added the Exped MegaMat and so glad I did.
It's more comfortable than the bed in my house even with me being a side sleeper.
And when I am not using the sleeping platform, rather than fully remove, I just collapse the length and turn it sideways, and it acts as a great storage platform behind my rear bench doubling my floor space.
Could not be happier and Reed was super nice and responsive to the emails I sent asking him various questions.

Finally got out to put my single platform into use. The design is outstanding; the flexibility to adjust the length and the height for both use in the SUV and in the tent is unmatched. I am impressed with the quality of the build; lightweight but strong poles; quality connections and fittings and easy but sure snap-in pins.

This is a great product, very well made and solid!

I bought this for camping in my 2013 Toyota Tacoma with a shell. This is perfect for my setup: Not only is it a quick and easy bed with storage underneath, but I can also pack it up and store it when I am not using it for camping. Love it.

Accompanying the exped sleeping bag and mattress I bought at REI, this exped pillow tire it all together with comfort and style. I really appreciate the thoughtful deep green color, high quality craftsmanship, materials and size. It's perfect! Very happy, thanks!

Thanks for making this purchase great! Reed was responsive and detailed. Also, thanks for the quick delivery!

I had asked someone from the company on the IG page and they were helpful in trouble shooting something and recommended me the stubby legs for when I need more head space in my honda. I have the legs that extend up and the chubby legs as well and I couldn’t be happier as I have more options now.
