Style and Design

When choosing a cot for your baby, it's easy to get swept up on the safety and specifications features. But don't overlook the style. You want something that is fashionable and will fit in with your nursery, regardless of whether you have a traditional or modern setup.

Obaby Maya Mini Cot Bed, our top pick for this category, is a stunning piece that's easy to assemble and looks great in any room. It's also very durable and the only cot we tried that we felt could stand the test time. The narrow bars make it easy to clean because there are no nooks or crannies where dust can accumulate. The lowered base is great for newborns and, as your baby becomes more active, you can lower it to keep them from falling out, while the teething rails keep them safe from sharp teeth.

Another stunning piece is the Silver Cross Nostalgia - a stunning sleigh-style cot which is suitable from birth and can be made into a bed for toddlers using an extension kit (sold separately). The three height options will ensure your child is at ease as they grow, however the time-consuming assembly process could put off some. It is also expensive but it is worth it if you're looking for a timeless design which will last for a long time. Gemma is the mother of Boden aged 13 months.

Innovation

Many mini cots have been designed with efficiency in mind. They have innovative design elements that maximise space and function. For instance, some models have a built-in diaper change station, which makes it much easier to change your baby. This enhances the comfort of both you and your child during the diaper changing process. It also makes it safer as all the necessary items are easily accessible.

Other designs that are innovative include cribs that fold into a compact unit, or a best crib that has an integrated trundle drawer to provide additional storage space.

Comfort

When you are planning your baby's nursery, it is easy to get caught-up in the safety and specification features. However comfort is equally important. If your child will be spending many hours in their cot, they need to be comfortable and safe.

Convertibility

Cot beds last longer than cribs that are standard and give your child an appropriate bed from birth until toddlerhood. This makes cots a better choice over cribs. They are also more affordable since you don't need to purchase a new bed for your child when they are no longer in it.

Some cots or cot beds can also be adapted to your child's. They can be turned into junior beds or small sofas. Stokke Sleepi, for example is a bed that can be used until age 2 with the purchase of an additional mattress extender as well as a junior conversion kit (sold separately). It's easy to make and looks great in any nursery. However, you'll need a fitted sheet that fits the bed of a cot rather than a cot as the gaps between the bars are large.
