Overall we have found this cot invaluable and we have only been home with our newborn for 2 weeks. It’s is perfect for feeding throughout the night as you can easily reach over for baby. The cot attaches to the bed and with the side down it is a lovely safe way to sleep close to your little one. We found the price quite expensive at the time of buying and found there were not many offers on this product.

This bed is a godsend my son loves to be close to me so having this bed with him next to me comforts him and settles him he reaches out in his sleep to check I’m there going to have big problems trying to put him into a cot it’s a shame the sides on these could’ve been highered

I got given the next 2 me and I love it. My daughter has grown out of her Moses basket but too young to go in the Corbin her room. The next2me is perfect for her. The side comes down and the crib goes next to my bed. I'm able to comfort my baby. My daughter enjoys it too. With there being more space she's starting to spread out more and moves around in her sleep. It helps my daughter because she can also see us - Strengths:

Where do i begin with the next2me crib?!
it was a gift, at first i was so set on getting a moses basket as that's what we had with our first baby, but wow, im so glad we got gifted a next2me crib. Was so convenient with the night feeds as i was breastfeeding, not too much disturbance for baby transferring her from crib to my bed as they were so close. There is different height settings to accommodate different height beds, legs that fold in to suit divan beds & you can tilt the crib down handy if baby has reflux or is suffering with a stuffy nose. Its also so handy as the side folds down so you can co-sleep with baby. The official Next2Me Crib sheets are expensive priced at £20 for 2, so we bought alternatives from mothercare which were about £7. We are still using this crib now & our little girl is 5.5 months old. il be sad to take her out the crib to be honest as its been amazing! would definitely recommend to any new parent that's deciding on first bed for baby.

Great for newborns, baby stays close and can feel the parents nearby. Adjustable heights which was great as you can elevate it helping babys breathing if they have a snuffly nose. - Strengths:

I love the way you can use this next to the bed or free standing (with side up) as a cot, easy access to baby and different heights to choose from. Also comes with a travel case if you go on holiday - Strengths:

Love it - so much bigger than a Moses basket. My 7 month old still has plenty of room (he’s not pulling himself up yet so can continue to use). Look out for deals in the sales - got mine in grey for only £90. - Strengths:

It’s so easy to put our little bundle in and take him out, even at night! He loves his crib and having his own space. When he’s having a clingy night, I can easily stay in bed and place my hand on him or hold his hand and easily settles down. This is a super bonus in the middle of the night l, especially when we feel a little tired. When I’m not in the room, like having a shower, or rush for the loo, it’s so easy to pull up the sides, clip and zip!
I wish they made them for baby to stay in them for longer than 6 months, as we love him being a part of our bed. - Strengths:

Love having my baby close so I can comfort him easily in the night. Great varying height positions and able to drop the one side slightly at an angle to assist with baby reflux. Good travel cot that is easy to put together and take down. Only thing not keen on is the side feet, although they fold to push alongside my bed, they don't hold and sometimes notice have pushed away from bed slightly which leaves a small gap. Use the straps to tie to bed to secure however. - Strengths:

So happy with this product. I don’t use it anymore as baby is too big but my friend not has it for her baby and she also loves it! It’s perfect for parents who want to co-sleep but don’t want the baby in their bed. The mattress is firm and seems comfortable. You can also have the side up which we found was handy when the baby start rolling. The only thing that I found annoying was the sheets seemed so expensive. Other than this, a great product. Highly recommend. - Strengths:

When choosing between a moses basket/cot/crib we went for the Chicco Next2Me because it allows safe co sleep and lasts until baby is 6 months old.
The best thing is that being on the same level as my bed I can reach him easily and help him settle with my touch and pick him up for night feeds without having to get out of the bed and bend over the crib
My baby is currently 3 months old and we used the Chicco Next2Me since birth and he still has plenty of space in it so we will be using it for at least a couple more months
We love it and my mum is always saying if they had one when I was a baby she would of loved it

When choosing between a moses basket/cot/crib we went for the Chicco Next2Me because it allows safe cosleep and lasts until baby is 6 months old (when we plan to move him into his room). We don't have enough space in our bedroom for a cot and a moses basket would have been outgrown too quickly. My baby is currently 3 months old and we used the Chicco Next2Me since birth and he still has plenty of space in it so we will be using it for at least a couple more months. Being bigger than a moses basket and regular crib means that as a newborn he felt a little bit lost and would not settle unless swaddled; when temperature dropped after summer we started using a sleeping bag and it helped. One thing I love is that you can set the legs on different heighs, so the crib is tilted and his head is higher up than the feet, which is very useful in case of reflux (he went through a fase during which he would bring up milk after every feed, sometimes up to 2 hours after the feed). And the best thing is that being on the same level as my bed I can reach him easily and help him settle with my touch and pick him up for night feeds without having to get out of the bed and bend over the crib. It's also lightweight and comes with a carrier bag, so you can take it with you as a travel cot.

We could not have coped with anything other than our next to me cot. Can be put at a range of levels. Our son has reflux and it’s been fab at helping with his reflux as you can set it to have the top slightly raised. Amazing in the night when baby stirs as you can just reach your hand over and settle them without having to get fully out of bed. - Strengths:

It's a fantastic product with great ideas. It's easy to move, easy to adjust, you can see your baby through the net and it's easy to clean. I am absolutely satisfied with the product. My baby is growing rapidly so I wish it could be a bit bigger or extendable. - Strengths:

We absolutely loved our Chicco crib! We used this for our twins, they needed feeding really frequently throughout the night time, and this cot was a lifesaver. Being able to reach into the cot without getting up was really useful, it was also really easy to reassure the babies through simply reaching and putting my hand on their tummy. My babies out grew this cot, as they can no longer fit in it together, but one of them will still use it as a travel cot when visiting their Grandparents. I found this cot easy to put up and take down, but it is a bit bulky when packed in the travel bag. I would really recommend this cot, it is lovely to have your newborn safely by your side at night time, it can help everyone get a better nights sleep! - Strengths:

Bought this for my newborn and have been using it for the past 4 months. This is a great solution for us as a cot wouldn't fit next to our bed. One side opens and makes it an extension to our bed. Baby is safely in her space but close enough for cuddles and easy night feed.
Fairly easy to set up in fit it beside the bed. I was able to do it by myself. It is quite safe and isn't wonky. Stays put next to my bed. It's a good size and the baby has plenty of space to grow. Looks very nice. Also easy to store as it can be folded up. Even possible to use it as a travel cot, which we haven't tried yet but will certainly take it with me if travelling.
Only negative I found the mattress to be way too hard but just put a small blanket under the bed sheet.
Overall a great purchase, i am happy with it and would recommend. - Strengths:

This is a pretty good product. I have this for my second child as I had a Moses basket with my first and spent most of the nights reading over to comfort my first born. The fact that the side drops down on this one was the main feature which made me buy it. I personally thought it was a little overpriced considering what it is but it does the job. The mattress is quite hard. I knew that others had said a similar thing before buying but didn’t see how it could be that bad. It is very firm and I’ve actually put some padding between the mattress and baby to help him sleep. The designs are lovely. I have the baby blue one with the little woodland animals on and think it’s beautiful. I don’t much care for the straps which you use to secure it to the bed - I found them really hard and awkward to adjust. The height adjustment is really easy to use though. I also found that where the side secures (if you decide not to have it dropped down) is really hard to get in. The material is so tight that you really have to fight to get the side back in and your fingers barely fit in when you want to unclip it to drop it back down again. - Strengths:

I love this crib the whole idea of it is just so lovely! I used this for my little boy who is now two and have just got it out again to use for my second baby which is due on the 1st November. I felt so comfortable at night knowing my baby was so close to me but not in the same bed. - Strengths:

We loved our Chicco bed. It was fairly simple to set up. You can change height settings to even have it tilted to help babies with reflux. Comes with very large straps so can be attached to any bed, and a bag to store away. Only downfall is that the bed is rather large so took up a lot of room in our bedroom and baby was only in it till 5 months as got too big but all in all great purchase. - Strengths:

Such a great item. So nice to have the little one right up against the bed, easy to reach for to comfort. My son slept brilliantly in this and learned to sleep though the night by 3 months. I think this was down to having this next to us.
It’s easy to assemble and adjusts well. Also the design is great. - Strengths:

I really love this and am so pleased I bought this over a Moses basket. I can see my baby all through the night and when he wakes up he can see me, which I’m sure has minimised crying in those earlier days. It is great just being able to lean over, without moving much to hold his hand, rub his tummy or stroke his head to reassure that I’m here. It has been great for breastfeeding, just lifting him out so easily. It is also a great size and means that we don’t have to put a full size cot in our bedroom once he’s outgrown a Moses basket but wasn’t quite old enough to sleep in his own room. I also love how there’s a little night light that fits it especially - the night light is great and would highly recommend this also. The crib is easy to fold down and put together and comes in a travel bag. I really love this and wouldn’t be without it!

As a new mom i was researching everything that i needed to buy for my baby. And this product was top choice for me because of the great reviews it had. Price was bit high but turns out it was worth it. Helped me sleep better knowing that my baby was right next to me and feeding and changing was easy. - Strengths:
