My in-laws have this one at their house for when my son stays over and I thought that the changing table was a brilliant idea but it’s not very long and my son found it slightly uncomfortable once he was 4 months. I love the different levels for when your baby is little to once they start standing up. My mother in law has also put a mattress into the cot to make it a bit more comfortable for my son. He loves it and the mesh sides are amazing as my son likes to sleep in strange positions.

Absolutely love this travel cot. I bought one to leave at my nans house for whenever we needed to stay over. My little one sleps through the night in the cot which shows me how super comfortable she must be. It also has a height adjuster which is handy as she’s little and the cost deep. The size means she will be able to use it for a long time.

Bought this for a bed in grandparents house and visiting family. Mattress that comes with this is very thin, I put a quilt under the sheet to make it comfy and baby sleeps the same as at home in her cot. Easy to put up and pack away. Great attachment to make the mattress higher for younger babies. Changing mat is also very useful but my little one is 6 months old and probably won’t fit on it much longer. - Strengths:

Overall a nice travel cot. Strong and safe. Nice colours and design. Baby who is 5 months can lay in the top part setting and I can put her in and out without straining my bad back.
Design issue which isn't bad, the clips take some force to clip the changing part onto the top as they're small but it's durable and strong to take force.

The travel cot is very good, but after a few weeks of the baby sleeping on the higher part it started to band in which isn’t good and wasn’t as comfortable - Strengths:

Our babies absolutely love this travel cot! Initially we had it downstairs instead of having a Moses basket. We loved having the changing top and would dress the babies on their each morning, I could easily keep an eye on one twin, whilst changing the other. As the babies got older, the travel cot had to come upstairs, as they had outgrown their co-sleeping cot. This worked really well again, but as the twins were sleeping in the cot overnight, we did buy a mattress to add to the cot, as the one provided is quite hard and thin. This cot is really good quality, spacious and easy for travel. - Strengths:

good product, easy to assemble, but sides are way too high for me, and I was worried I might drop the child, especially early days/sleep deprived. I bought another brand in result. the material on the changer is good with wipeable surface, but easy to rip, what my cat actually did when jumped onto it once. - Strengths:

We got this travel cot as baby was quickly outgrowing the Moses basket and wanted something she could sleep in downstairs. We found it was very easy to assemble and it can be put up in under two minutes...ditto for collapsing it.
You can use it at two levels thanks to the bassinet, so when baby is tiny you aren’t having to bend all the way down to lift them in and out. The mattress that comes with it is firm but comfortable, however, the mattress folds for portability and thus when being used with the bassinet it tends to dip where the folds are, so not completely flat.
One other wee niggle is, when using the bassinet, every time baby moves the fabric ruffles and it can be quite noisy and might wake some babies.
We had to use this travel cot as baby’s overnight cot for a couple of weeks as our crib developed a fault. We used it at the lower level, and although a pain when lifting baby in and out, the mattress was flatter, it was less noisy and baby slept very well all through the night so it must have been comfy!
The changing table that clips on the top of the cot is great! It’s at a good height, easily washable and seems comfortable and secure.
Overall, this is a great travel cot...it’s comfortable, easy to assemble and dissemble, very portable when collapsed and it looks good too! - Strengths:

This travel cot is excellent value for money and I love that the bassinet part comes with it. The mattress is quite thin and the bassinet part becomes seemingly unsturdy when the baby starts to roll.
I would recommend the travel cot as I’m not sure you’d get better for the money. - Strengths:

We love this product.
We have the travel cot with bassinet and the change top too.
We have 2 dogs which kept trying to jump in the moses basket so we very quickly started using the travel cot down stairs instead. It's soft and comfortable for her We love the bassinet as we've used it from newborn it's mich easier than keep putting her all the way to the bottom.
When baby is awake we put a play gym inside it to give her something to look at.
It folds up easily for travel and even has wheels so it's easier to transport around too. We love this product definitely recommend it. - Strengths:

I love this bed because my son spent a lot longer in our room by the side of our bed than I was every expecting and it was a much better size to have by the side of the bed than a full size cot after he outgrew his first crib. And on the plus side I could always take his actual bed with us whenever we went on holiday - Strengths:

We brought this before baby was born as an alternative for downstairs naps for when baby out grew Moses basket. The mattress doesn’t seem comfortable it seems rather hard for a babies cot. It’s easy to assemble and goes up fairly fast. It doesn’t take up massive of room either. It’s handy for overnight stays when we stay out. The changing mat is super handy, I always worried it wouldn’t take the baby’s weight but it does. It’s sturdy and safe. Although baby won’t sleep in it for long periods of time it was definitely worth the money we paid. - Strengths:

We bought this travel cot due to needing to travel frequently to see family and also to use for downstairs naps as little one grew out of carrycot very quickly. We have only had it a short time but it's been great so far. My son took to it straight away and whilst the mattress feels thin it seems comfortable enough for him. The bassinet level saves my back when putting him down. An extra point I discovered is that while the bassinet is attached the arms to my playmat fit neatly down the sides so that I can dangle toys into the cot allowing it to be a playpen as well as a bed. - Strengths:

Great, we’ve been using this for weeks as my son quickly grew out of his Moses basket and moving the actual cot into our room would have required taking it apart and rebuilding.
Because of the design of this I can get it right to the edge of our bed, and with the bassinet later I don’t have to struggle to reach him. It goes up and down very easilt, my only complaints are the changing table was a nightmare to put together, so much so that I’ve vowed never to take it apart and that there isn’t any obvious storage for that or the bassinet when packing away.

I love this product.Good product, great value for money. Changing table is very handy. Is safe to use and looks great. Comfortable for my child and easy to use.
The cot itself is a good size without taking up too much room so can be used in a room with less space. It is sturdy and the mattress gives a firm flat surface for baby to lie on. My son slept well in this. I think this travel cot is excellent value for money and very versatile, it fold down neatly and compact. - Strengths:

We use this travel cot for our twins whilst they are downstairs. It’s an excellent size for 2 and was easy to assemble in the first place. Whilst the cot is large enough for 2 babies, when the mattress is positioned in the middle level the way the mattress is suspended means that the twins roll into the middle - but it works for us as they like to cuddle together anyway!!
Excellent product for the price. - Strengths:

We bought this to have in outer lounge instead of. Moses basket as we felt it would save money having he travel cot and playpen in one. I love that this travel cot is so easy to put up and attach things to. It has the option of many attachments such as the cot top changer. This is well designed and easy to use. The cot itself is a good size without taking up too much room so can be used in a room with less space. It is sturdy and the mattress gives a firm flat surface for baby to lie on.

We bought this when our son outgrew his moses basket to keep in our room until he goes into his own at 6 months. It is really easy to un/fold and is really easy to put back into the bag if transporting. The mattress is more padded than others I've seen - we haven't bought a second mattress for this cot and my son has had no issues sleeping for the last 2 months.
The higher level base option is a saviour for my back, as at almost 18lbs at 6 months my boy is heavy and can't support himself well: I wouldn't fancy lifting him from floor level every time! No complaints for this, it's sturdy, comfortable and easy to use - what more do you need! - Strengths:

After looking for a few different travel cots we found this one the best as we have a new born and our mum and dad live in London we needed to find a travel cot suitable for our new bundle of joy having the basinette made us feel safe to put our child to bed in as he isn’t very low to the floor it’s a brilliant size and he is going to be able to use it for a long time it’s easy to put together and dismantle and is very easy to clean! The changing station makes things alot better as we don’t have to worry about trying to find the changing mat etc this just clips on and off - Strengths:

Amazing, good value travelcot. Baby would not sleep in Moses basket at all (not sure why) but sleeps a dream in this travel cot. We are on the move between grandparents a lot and it's nice that baby has a familiar sleeping environment. He takes all his naps and sleeps in it. The mattress is firm, sturdy and comfortable; he prefers it to sleeping in my bed! I have been using it for 2 months straight since he turned 5 months.
