About 228,760 Coleman Camping Cots and Stretcher Cots were recalled due to a risk of severe finger-pinching injuries, including lacerations and amputations.
These finger injuries occurred when users tried to adjust the chair while seated, and got their fingers pinched by the back hinge.
Coleman reported 7 injuries, including 2 reports of fractured fingers (broken bones) due to the seat-back adjustment mechanism.
The recall involves the Coleman Converta Cot and Coleman Converta Camping Suspension Stretcher (also referred to as a “Stretcher Cot”).
They were sold from January 2011 through March 2025 at Walmart, other stores, and online. The recalled cots have Model Numbers:
- 2000020282 Coleman Converta Cot

Coleman is urging people who have a Converta Cot or Stretcher Cot to immediately stop using it and register for a free repair kit at the website: https://recall.coleman.com/.
“The repair kit can be easily installed and will reduce the risk of fingers contacting or getting pinched by the back hinge,” according to the recall.
