The Babyweavers Pack It Travel Cot is a good value for money travel cot. It is easy to assemble compared to some of the others on the market. My son loved the bright orange colour. It feels sturdy and secure. The only negative comment I can think is that it is on the small side and that he may outgrow it quicker than some other travel cots out there.
from North Wales on 7/7/2008
I was very pleased with this travelcot,very sturdy,good value for money,I have purchased an additional mattress though, just to make it extra comfortable.[...] Thank you, Grateful Grandparents
from West Sussex on 7/4/2008
This is a great travel cot but definately needs a mattress for a good sleep! but was still great value even with the mattress.
from Doncaster on 7/3/2008
Our baby is only 17 weeks, but he settled straightaway in the cot, It feels nice and sturdy and a nice bright colour. At first it was stiff to set up put improved over time.
It does feel a little heavy though.
Excellent product. Very easy to assemble, it takes seconds, and the same to take it down again. Colour is a bit bright but doesn't matter. Good that the mesh enables you to see into cot. Have used it several times already and we're much more inclined to go away for the night as we know our baby will sleep soundly in it.

We suggested my in laws get this travel cot when our 17 month was to stay with them for 10 days. My son slept comfortably there with the addition of the very comfy mattress that comes separately. It's very sturdy and you can see through it on all sides. I quite like the orange color, although my mother in law wasn't all that keen on it :) There are 2 other grandchildren who will be able to use this also. My son and i often stay with them, so it's nice to know he has a comfortable bed to stay in at their house.
from Rugeley, Staffordshire on 6/13/2008
My son is 6 months old and this travel cot is ideal for using as a playpen when I don't have eyes in the back of my head!! he loves it in there - theres plenty of room and he can see me through the mesh at the sides of the cot too. Also its really easy to assemble once you get the knack and is great for sticking in the boot of the car when you are visiting or going away for sleeptime. Really pleased with this product.
from Carlisle Cumbria on 6/9/2008
Initially on first use it was best described as stiff but after two uses has become easier to use, although wrapping it up to put it into the carry bag is still a bit of a wrestling match.[...]
from wadhurst on 6/2/2008
Lovely modern colour,quite tough to lock into place but once assembled very sturdy.Not as big as hoped,dont think you could use as playpen also.Overall nice sturdy cot thou and reasonable price.
from South Wales on 5/28/2008
this is a great value travel cot however I would recommend purchasing the extra mattress as the one that is supplied is not very comfortable. i really wouldn't pay more than this as its the extra mattress that makes it great
from Essex on 5/23/2008
Great cheap option. Wouldn't use it without an additional mattress though as the bottom is not comfortable at all. Nor would I travel abroad with it as it is far too heavy, but as we only intend to stick to holidays in England for a while, this is perfect. If we needed one, it would also make a good play pen as well.
from Mickleton, Gloucestershire on 5/22/2008
Easy to assembly, light weight
from Devon on 5/21/2008
I searched for a spacious travel cot that wasn't really heavy for ages. My daughter likes a lot of space to roll about, and this is great. I admit its not a light option at 10.3kilos- you couldn't take it on a flight, but its perfect for travelling by car, and its quick and easy to assemble and put down. The optional mattress is also brilliant- much thicker than others I have looked at.
from Aberdeenshire on 5/19/2008
tried another travel cot but found it a nightmare to assemble,this model was a piece of cake never even needed to use the instructions it was that straight forward.Its stable and feels like a quality prduct for a very good price.
from Redditch, Worcs. on 5/16/2008
Very easy to assemble. Very comfortable for baby.Very portable product that can be taken and used anywhere.Lovely to have an interesting choice of colour when you dont know the sex of the baby!Brilliant price too.
from Cornwall on 5/15/2008
Great for weekends away or holidays, easy and fast to put up and take down and packs away neatly fits great in the car! Also great to use as a playpen
from Oxford on 5/14/2008
It is great. It took us 2 mins to assemble.My 6 months old baby loved playing and sleeping in it. Highly recommend it !
Would recommend to my friends
from London on 5/13/2008
The travel cot was stiff to put up at first but after we'd used it a couple of times it was no problem. The colour is great for babies and toddlers as they love bright things. I really recommend buying the additional travel mattress for extra comfort, if your baby/child is going to spend more than one night in the cot.
from Portsmouth on 5/12/2008
This product is as compact as it can get. A little heavy to start with in the bag but you can not really expect a travel cot to be very lightweight and sturdy at the same time. The colour is bright and can be used as a travel cot or play pen. Ideal!!!! The base mattress that they give is a little hard for my 12 week baby so i bought a travel mattress to go in it and its like from bed to bed for my baby. He loves it, and the bright colour he just adores!!!!
from middlesex on 5/11/2008
Quite hard to assemble, but not havy at all. Very usefull even as a playpen.
from North Yorkshire on 5/10/2008
Easy to use, great quality. Was a bargain
from Newport, Isle of Wight on 5/10/2008
Very good quality
from Stamford Lincs on 5/8/2008
First class no problems worth mentioning
from exmouth on 5/7/2008
this cot is easy to assemble,it is really nice and bright,my grandson loved it and enjoyed the tactile feel of the different fabrics,happy to play in as well as sleep
from Manchester on 5/7/2008
The perfect product for that weekend away and so easy to set up.
from East Sussex on 5/6/2008
Travel cot was brought for occassional nights away. Great compact item, well thought out, easy to get into boot of car with other overnight items. Would highly recommend especially to those with toddlers. Although great that mattress wrapped as cover around cot, it was not thick enough for toddler to sleep on.
from Carmarthenshire on 5/6/2008
Very easy to assemble, I didn't need any help to do it. So comfortable, that baby slept the whole night through in it.
from London on 5/5/2008
Great product, easy to assemble. We don't need to carry it far as it will stay at the Grandparent's house - this is lucky as it is heavy. BUT, the colour is great and it's sturdy and spacious.
from staffs on 5/3/2008
great product easy to use study when up,i managed it even though im heavily pregnant, folds away its great.
from Swansea on 5/3/2008
Bought for sleepovers at grandparents. My daughter is 15 months old and long for her age but there is more than enough space in the travel cot. I found it really easy to put up and down. Bit stiff at first but nothing difficult. For overnight use the mattress included is fine. If using for longer I would recommend buying the optional travel cot mattress. Colour is very bright, which I found offputting however my daughter and husband think it's great!
from liverpool on 5/3/2008
as soon as it arrived i had it out of the box and set up in about 1 minute! ive cot a 6 month old son and he loves it! he has started rolling around now trying to crawl so now i when i put him in there i know it is safe for him.
three word... we love it!
from Kent on 5/2/2008
Bought this product for our first trip to stay with grandparents.My 5 month old slept soundly in it and seemed very comfortable. We bought the optional mattress and I would reccommend this, I would not have been happy to sleep him in the cot without it as the "mattress" provided is not really suitable for overnight sleeping (very hard with little padding, only really suitable for a playpen). The hinges were very stiff at first use making it hard to assemble, but these losened quickly and are fine now.
from Manchester on 5/1/2008
We bought this in preperation for our first child, which is due any day.
We bought a cot top changer a couple of weeks ago and saw this advertised on the site and have been looking for some this similar. The price was beeter than any other we found and the reviews were very good so we oredered it.
The first thing I did was test the ease of assembly as we intend to use this when we go to the grand parents - I put it up within a couple of minutes without instruction. I then checked the instructions to ensure everything was correct and it was. It is that simple. It is also very sturdy and stable.
The big test will be when our baby arrives!
from Gravesend kent on 5/1/2008
I use this everyday as a cot and a playpen as I have toddlers and babies to look after. Best item I have bought this year, been an absolute god send.
from Chichester on 4/29/2008
Worried that my son would be startled by the bright orange but no! he didnt even notice and slept soundly all night. Such good value.
from Dingwall on 4/29/2008
When not in use it takes up very little storage space.
from northamptonshire on 4/27/2008
we used it on a weekend break and it was great. It packed nicely away into the car and didn't take up too much room.
from Hereford on 4/27/2008
We used it for our 15 months daughter and did not have any problem. Great price quality/ratio and easy to assemble.
from Newquay Cornwall on 4/26/2008
Brilliant, Easy to follow instructions, Was a little stiff at first, Was up in less than five mins, One person job, Love the colour its so vibrant, Money well spent.
from plymouth, devon on 4/26/2008
Bought for my 4 month old son. The colour is great and I managed to put this up within minutes with ease - great buy.
from Lancashire on 4/25/2008
The only negative thing is the locks you have to turn to click in place are very stiff to move. Meets all our requirements for weekend stays.
from stafford on 4/24/2008
ideal for going away in car but heavy for carrying or flights
So easy to assemble - No tools ! Put my son in first time and he was memorised by the mesh and colour - great value for money - would most definately recommend.
from east anglia on 4/23/2008
very good value as bought on a deal
from Edinburgh on 4/21/2008
This travel cot is good value for money, however I found it difficult to lock the hinges into position. It is also quite heavy and not ideal for frequent travellers. It is handy for use as a playpen or for those on a budget. It is also great for leaving at grandma's house for those necessary visits.
from cumbria on 4/21/2008
I use this item so my twins can sleep over at thier grandparents, its really easy to put together i didnt even need the instructions which is a first.Its a really good size, I have to cushion the base when being used to sleep in cause its a bit hard, thats the only bad thing.
from Glasgow on 4/21/2008
This cot doesn?t have a toy bars, or a changing mats and other peripherals, what this is, is a very high quality light and easy to assemble travel cot. The only downside of this cot which is easily remedied is that the mattress is a pretty hard, take my advice and buy a travel cot mattress.
from Lymm, Cheshire on 4/20/2008
We are using this for our first family holiday and will take the advice from others about the mattress. We intend to use extra blankets for comfort but apart from that the product is excellent! We especially like the way the mattress doubles up as a sturdy playmat and the colour is fab!
from east kilbride, glasgow on 4/20/2008
I was not going to buy, because it was orange but am glad I did, visitor comment at the bright colour and are amazed at the low price.
from Worcestershire on 4/18/2008
Haven't actually used this yet but put it up to check and it seems really good value for money. The sides were a bit difficult to lock until i worked out how to do it properly, then it was straightforward. Seemed much easier to put down than the other one I have used, and is also a lot cheaper than the other one used. Hopefully baby will like the bright colour as much as we do!
from ripon, north yorkshire on 4/15/2008
great product a bit stiff to assemble at first needed a bit of oil, would deffinatly recomend don't be put off by the colour its fab in the flesh, matress bit uncomfy but they all are we just used a baby quilt
from northamptonshire on 4/14/2008
I bought this for a play pen for my seven month old baby girl which is the only thing i would use it for as I couldnt turn the locking handles into place they were so stiff.i wasnt going to spend more money returning the heavy item,in the end i had to turn the thing on its side and stand on the handles to get them to lock i wouldnt recommend this product unless your built like frank bruno.
couldnt fault the delivery it came the next morning.
from lancashire on 4/14/2008
I bought this travel cot so i could have my 5 month old grandson over night while his parents were at work. What a great buy for the money i paid!! He sleeps like a top in it, loves the bright colours too. I like the fact that it can be folded up and put away in its bag until the next time he comes to stay, avoiding the need to leave it permenently assembled in the bedroom. It is easily assembled and folds away easily, although the first time i assembled it the locks were a little stiff. Good to take away on holiday too!
from Derby on 4/13/2008
I brought this product as a play pen for my toddler and its good value for money! The colour is very bright which is good as children love bright colours.
from Darwen Lancashire on 4/12/2008
I use this as a playpen and also for naps during the daytime and hopefully soon for trips away from home. On the day it was delivered I found it that easy to assemble it was up in less than 10 minutes and my daughter took a nap in it no sooner I placed the mattress into it. Very happy with this and the price was brilliant value
from Dorset on 4/11/2008
Slightly stiff to assemble the first time I tried but still put it up in under 5 minutes ! A good value cot that we use for travel and as a playpen in the house. Funky colour put me off initially but my son loves it
from Arbroath, Angus on 4/9/2008
I have just used this on my grandsons sleepover.He's 4 months old and although he looked a bit lost in it he loved it!!!! Ok so the mattress isn't that great and I thought that maybe he would be freaked out with all that orange but I put a blanket on the mattress and he loved the colour.
It's simple to put up and down.
What else can I say but FABULOUS VALUE FOR MONEY!!
Thanks
from Devon on 4/9/2008
I was a little worried that because of the price that this would not be very sturdy, but i had nothing to worry about. Very easy to assemble, lovely bright colour and qite well padded, [...]
from York on 4/4/2008
