Product Reviews

Izziwotnot's Bailey Sleigh cot bed isn't the most expensive, but it's stylish and well-constructed. It's simple to put together, although it will require two people. It also is beautiful in any nursery. The panel was a big success with our panelists, who loved the dark wood sides and the dowel edges. It's durable enough for your child to use until they are toddlers. It also meets British safety standards - the depth isn't that deep that your child could climb out, and the distance between the slats should not be more than 65mm. This should prevent their head from being trapped. You'll also have to buy a mattress, that costs an additional PS88.

The sleigh shape of this crib is stunning and makes it stand out from the rest. It's also simple to put your baby inside and out of this cot, which is a huge benefit. It's a little more expensive than other cot-beds however our panel believed it was worth it due to the design and durability.

The cot bed is available in either country pine or walnut finishes. It is suitable from the time of birth. It comes with three mattress heights, meaning you can start your child off with the base high up so that they can easily get to them throughout the day and at night, then lower it as they increase in height. It comes with teething rails that safeguard your child's furniture and gums. When your child is out of the cot bed, it can be converted into a junior bed, and then it can be converted into a sofa.

The Westport design from Silver Cross is another cot that is hefty and made to last. It can be used from birth as a cot, and later as toddler bed, and finally as an adult bed. (Toddler guard rails are available separately). It was a bit difficult for our panel to turn the cot into a bed however, their other half of the panel said it was easy and took less than 5 minutes. It's also a tad more expensive than other cots, but it's the kind of design that you'd probably like to keep and use for your children as they grow up.
