I have the Helinox bed (cot) and chair. I have used them on a trip around Australia and recently took them to for a trip around the North Island of New Zealand. The gear is well made and the quality and strength of the frames (T6061 Al?) and the webbing is excellent. The cot while expensive, is paid for by not staying a few nights in a cabin or motel. It sits off the ground, high enough to get my boots and other gear under the bed so only need a small tent. Great night rest!
Bed too heavy? I do not think so as the marginal difference between the bed and a thermorest (or equivalent) is about 0.8kg.
The chair gives good back support.
Hope this helps
