Will these stands raise high enough to use an underquilt? There are other places that sell similar stands. Look the same, what do you think? Here is Menards http://menards.inserts2online.com/cu...p?drpStoreID=1
Also saw one at Target for $99 that looks the same. When I went to their web site I couldn't find it at that price. The Sierra TP, $76 (20% off), looks to be the same as Menards, $88, but with shipping involved it would probably be cheaper at Menards. I would definately want one that comes apart easily.

It says the height from the ground is 5'. I assume they mean from the end points. If that is the case, you could do it, but you'd need to string it fairly tight. 5' ft off the ground isn't very far when the end points are 15' apart.
