Abstract: An accessory for use with a bed or cot having a frame is described. The accessory has a first upright member joined to a first corner of the frame, a second upright member joined to a second corner of the frame, and a variable length cross member connected to the first and second upright members to form a stable, substantially U-shaped structure therewith. Each of the upright members is also connected to a respective leg member of the bed or cot to provide improved stability for the accessory. Further, each upright member has a plurality of hooks for allowing a user to hang clothes, equipment, and other personal items. The cross member is provided with apertures at its ends for receiving the tip portions of the upright members and for allowing the tip portions to extend above the cross member. By allowing the tips of the upright members to extend above the cross member so that a user is able to put slidable devices for holding objects, such as a clothes hanger, on the cross member and not have them slide off the ends of the cross member.
