Roanna loved the cotbed, and described it as "a high-quality purchase". She loved that the smooth motion was gentle and lulled her to sleep. She also thought that the design was elegant and could be a good match with most bedroom decors. However, she did point out that although it's a great choice for newborns, once they're six months old, you'll need to get them an additional cot.

She also appreciated that the side panel that slides could be lowered by one hand, so she could quickly answer wake-up calls from her bed to feed or comfort her little ones.

5. Clair de Lune

The third and final movement of the 1890 Suite bergamasque by Claude Debussy "Clair de Lune," (French: moonlight) is based on Paul Verlaine’s romantic poetry and offers the impression of a smoky Italian small town. It is also an ideal fit into Twilight the film, where Edward Cullen has it on his stereo as he seduces Bella and gazes at Bella with that lusty vampire. It's a melodramatic love story certainly, but at least the music is fantastic.

Mike Mills adapted this piece for his 2009 movie C'mon C'mon. In the film, it is not performed by a piano player, but rather by the San Francisco Saxophone Quartet.
