How to Choose the Best Cot For Newborns
A cot is the baby's first bed, and will be their sleep space until they reach around four years old. Therefore, you need it to be comfy, sturdy and safe.
Check that the mattress is free of gaps as these can be an issue for babies who are suffocated. Also, look for a cot that is able to convert into an infant bed.
Single Cot
The OEX Ultralite foldable cot is among the lightest options available. It weighs 2.68kg and is nearly a quarter of the price of the Helinox version I tested. It's also much easier to set up - the two primary poles snap together like unusually large tent poles, with shock cord to keep them in order, then they slide easily into sleeves that fit on their legs. All you have to do is to place your feet inside them to set up the sleeping area.
It's not easy to take apart. It is necessary to be strong enough to take the legs off, and then it is a bit of work to dismantle the frame. It's a minor issue, and I think it's the most lightweight frame I've tested.
Take a look at the cot bed range that is available if you're seeking something more durable and permanent. If you choose this option, you will need to buy a separate bed for your child once they reach several years.
Some children are content to stay in a cot for longer than this, but most want to move on to their first single bed - which can be presented as a 'prize for being the big brother or sister!
The Cot One provides a comfortable sleeping environment for infants and young children on any surface, including hard surfaces. It's also easy to set up, without small pieces that could be lost, and it's solid enough to be able to be held by a toddler with no wobbly bits or parts to worry about.
Double Cot
A double cot is ideal for twins who are just born or siblings who will need to sleep together. It has the same security features as a single cot including side rails as well as an slatted base that can be lowered as your child grows. It also comes with multiple support areas, which means you can choose the ideal size for your child's requirements. This is the only cot that we tested that can accommodate two infants at a time because it can support up to 325 lbs. This cot is 72 inches long. This is an excellent selling point for families that need to share space.
This cot comes with a wonderful feature that parents love. It can be converted into a toddler's bed and then a junior bed. This provides it with longevity and means that you don't have to purchase a second bed. This is ideal for families who have a tight budget, and will save you money as your child grows.
The majority of health professionals recommend cot beds as they provide the greatest security for your child. The bed is designed to be used until your child is two years old. After this, it will have to be changed to an adult bed or a toddler bed.
This is the only cot that we tested with an adjustable base. The lowest setting is suitable for babies who are in the sitting position. The most extreme setting is recommended if your baby is able to roll over. This is an essential feature because children could choke if their head becomes trapped between gaps or protrusions inside the cot.
The only issue with this cot is that it isn't easy to fold, and it can be a hassle to get the legs into place. It's also the biggest cot we've reviewed and can be quite heavy to carry when you have to move it from its storage location.
This premium wood cot is the perfect choice if you are looking for a cot that comes with all the features.

Cots offer a safe and secure sleeping environment for your infant cot bed, ensuring that they get the sleep they require. They are usually lower than beds and the base is adjustable depending on your baby's developmental stage. Many cots come with a drop-side that allows you to co-sleep safely with your newborn. This also allows you to feed your baby at the evening. Some cots allow you to remove one of the sides completely. This could allow you to use it as a bassinet, and provide a safer option to co-sleeping with your baby in your bed.
Some cots come with additional features that can make life a little easier for parents, such as a handy drawer beneath the cot that is perfect to store items or keep your essential items close at hand, anti-bite plastic rails on the top of the cot to protect teething babies and a detachable riser leg that can be used to create a slight incline to help reflux babies. Silver Cross Westport Cot Bed is among our top choices. It is not only elegant with its minimalist Scandi design and oak finish, but it is also extremely practical, with three different height settings for the mattress.

There are many aspects to consider when buying a cot, such as the dimensions of the cot as well as its sides, if it has a drop side for petite babies or with health issues and the capacity of storage for the cot, whether it has an adjustable hood, and if it comes with bedding. Make sure you check the dimensions of the crib or cot of your baby to make sure it will fit in your nursery or bedroom. Make sure there is enough space to move around and that it's not too close to heat sources or windows.
Quadruple Cot
You'll need a four-in-one crib if you're expecting twins, triplets or more. These cots are large enough to accommodate four babies at once, and they come with bedding sets that make it simple to get your little ones ready to go to bed. A lot of them come with a removable side rail to keep your child close as they sleep. If you have more than one child, you might want to consider a model with bunk beds which can be made into a single.
Many cots have an adjustable mattress that can be adjusted up and down to accommodate your baby's height. This can be a good option if you're worried your baby could slip at night, and is beneficial for when your child starts to stand. Some cot mattresses are made of natural materials such as wool or cotton. However there are models made of polyurethane.
It's a good idea select a cot that has mesh sides. This allows air to circulate and keep your baby cool. Make sure you check the length of the bars too and ensure that they do not be more than 6.5cm apart to prevent your baby from climbing out. Avoid cots with solid feet and head boards as they can entrap clothing or the limbs of your child.
Another important consideration is how easy the cot is to clean. Make sure it's machine washable, and what the care instructions are for the fabric as well as any parts that are removable. You'll also need to consider whether your bedding for your cot is suitable or if you'll need purchase special sheets for travel cots.
Babies require a lot of paraphernalia including nappies (which can quickly accumulate!) bedding, clothing and other toys. A cot sets that has storage, such as the Obaby Stamford Space Saver Cot will allow you to keep everything neatly organised and easily accessible.
