Although the manual did not give very clear instructions, it really was not too difficult to figure out. and once assembled we could do it again without any difficulty. It really does have all the bells and whistles. a very dinky changing mat and two compartments which can storing nappies and wipes. The bassinette although it states is up to 3 months, is very roomy and a child up to 6 months could easily sleep in it (unless they are sitting up of course!) I ordered the extra mattress, as the cot will be used over the next few months. Without it, the mattress is the usual thin travelcot mattress, and probably would not be good enough 4 more than short term use. All in all it is a very sturdy, roomy, good value 4 money cot bed, and we are very thrilled with our purchase.

Delighted with this cot.Wish I could have had one when my grown up kids were around.Its simply THE best.
from East Sussex on 5/14/2008
We purchased this travel cot after reading great reviews. I am pleased to say it has exceeded our expectations as our 7 week year old son is sleeping like a baby in it! He has outgrown his moses basket so we thought we would invest in a travel cot (we also got the travel cot mattress which adds comfort for every day use). Comes with musical mobile and nightlight, storage pouches and even a fold out change table. Only slight negative is that it requires attention to detail to assemble but once you have got the knack it is easy.

Great play pen in a very rare bright colour that I couldn't find in [...] nor other stores. Love it!
from Harlow on 5/6/2008
Fab cot!
It was quite hard to assemble for the very first time, however once we got the hang of it it was OK. My son loves it!
Once folded it doesn't even take that much space in the car - and handy carry bag is included.
Would definitely recomend to anyone!

I was over the moon with the product it has everything that you would require , I could not fault it
from North Yorkshire on 4/7/2008
Straight forward to assemble, instructions are poor.
Plenty of little extras i.e. bag that clips to the cot, a holder for creams cotton balls etc, change mat and mobile.
Cot is large if space is a premium and quite heavy at 14kgs.
However good value for money with bassinette for newborn and cot for older babies.

I'm so pleased with my purchase, I checked the vast market and thought this was the best value for money. I was not disappointed.
from Uxbridge on 3/31/2008
This is an excellent product! The cot was pretty easy to put up first time, after watching the video a couple of times - a great idea having videos available. After the first time up and down, it was no problem, even in the dark. Can be taken apart and packed away in less than 5 mins. Only grumble is the carry sack is flimsy and a tight fit. We were unable to pack away the changing table after we had unpacked it and now carry this seperately. The size is big, so be careful - this is a Hilton size travel cot, but is perfect for our extra long girl and makes a great playpen. The suspended crib make putting in/taking out of the baby so easy for both of us and is very stable. The mattress is comfy (fitted 120cm sheets fit it just fine) and we have not had a disturbed night yet whilst travelling. The whole thing is sturdily made for the money and we love it. Definitely recommended!
from Surrey on 3/26/2008
We are temporarily using the cot as baby's bed in our bedroom as baby has outgrown her moses basket and we don't want her sleeping alone in her nursery just yet. We also take this cot with us when staying at baby's Grandparents. Very sturdy, bassinet level is at a good height and can imagine using the cot as a playpen later on when away. A bit of a nightmare trying to put all the pieces back in the bag ready for travelling with but much easier if you can forego the extra's such as the changing shelf.
from Kirriemuir, Angus on 3/6/2008
Because of my old profession, I always try to get things that will have extended life and multiple uses, as having a baby is expensive enough!
My daughter has always been tall (I knew this when I was pregnant but no-one beleived me!) so she has outgrown her travel cot given to us by my sister. So it was essential to make sure than this one was more than 102cm long when assembled. Looks very comfy and hope to use it when we have another, fingers crossed!
from oxfordshire on 2/28/2008
great product although did need a pillow each side of the baby(4 months old) due to it being quite wide, but no problem with that, then baby looked really comfy and safe. great features are detachable items, i.e. laundry bag, changing mat and clip on pockets for nappies etc.
from east kilbride on 2/21/2008

from Sheffield, South Yorkshire on 2/18/2008
We bought this product for our holidays this year but we have started to use it as a cot at night as our 3mth old daughter has outgrown her moses basket. Although there are small spaces in the mattress where it folds, it does look and feel quite comfortable and she has slept well. Initially we found the cot to be difficult to assemble, however the cot was faulty.
Although the instructions are sparse, the replacement cot clicked together very easily and the attachments were simple to assemble. It is also easy to pack away and when in the travel bag it fits comfortably in our boot.
The changing matt and mobile will be useful on holiday but at the moment they are unnecessary and a bit gimicky.
from Newport,South Wales on 2/16/2008
Its great because of the easy storage & really easy to put up & take down. Only gripe is when i took it out of the box the cover handle snapped...easily fixed though
from Bournemouth on 2/10/2008
We purchased this travel cot to be used at grandparents house. I watched the assembly video with them first and they agreed it looked straightforward and that it was not too heavy for them to move around. When we received it I let them assemble it and they managed it without too much effort. putting it away was just as easy. The cot top changer is really great too, although they will not be able to use it for long as our little boy is 8.5 months.
All in all a fantastic, does what it says, reasonable priced product.
from Bristol on 1/31/2008
This is an ideal buy if you are after a travel cot/play pen. We chose it because it is predominantly going to be a play pen and we needed something a little more substantial.
Positives are that it is quite easy to assemble (despite it's size!), it can be used for newborns and toddlers, it has useful extra fittings when using it for a newborn, it is sturdy and the changing table attachment is also really handy.
Negatives are that it is quite big, which may be a problem if you need to use it as a travelcot quite often, and the mobile that comes with it is not the most attractive one we've seen!!
from Reading on 1/28/2008
Had Hauck before and struggled with assembly and disassembly. Bought this one as a semi permanent part time bed which does not have to be disassembled. Love the changing mat feature. Works well with Travel Time mattress. I would disagree with statement "easy to set up and fold".
from Wincanton, Somerset on 1/28/2008
This baby centre is virtually perfect. My son's mattress from his cot fits his travel cot, so no need to buy an extra mattress. Setting up can be a bit tricky, but with some practice it's ok. Having the wheels on it helps as well. 9.5 out of 10

I am using this travel cot for my 10 month old, and it is great and will be using it for my newborn who is due in 6 weeks time.
from Dudley, West Midlands on 1/25/2008
This item is heavy and bulky, also difficut to put up but the sturdiness and comfort far outweighs the negative points. The light on the stand is just enough so as not to wake the baby (and you)too much when doing a night nappy change I would recommend this item once you have learned to assemble and disassemble it 'perseverence pays'
from Cheshire on 1/24/2008
This is great for tall or slightly older toddlers. Can also be used once your toddler has transfered to the big girl / boy bed as there is a zip open door at one end whch can be left open.
