Buying Small Cot Beds

It's easy to focus on the safety and features when shopping for a small bed. But don't forget the aesthetics. A well-designed cot can make your room appear bigger and less clutter-filled.

This model is ideal for smaller bedrooms. It's light and stroller-style. It's the simplest flatpack assembly.

Space-saving

Cot beds are smaller versions of traditional cots, but still offer all the security and comfort features your baby needs. They can be used until your toddler is ready for a junior bed at the age of 2. Some models can be converted into an elegant sofa bed to use with older children, too.

To help you maximize your space, choose an item that is compatible with the furniture in your bedroom, or one that you can easily dismantle and reassemble when you need to accommodate other baby items. You may also want to think about a compact cot bed that has built-in storage or multi-functional designs that combine an armoire with a changing table and bench seat into a single piece of furniture.

There's a broad range of sizes in our small cot beds and cribs roundup, so regardless of whether you have a tiny nursery or a huge playroom there's something to meet your needs. A lot of the cribs on our list have mattresses that are fitted which helps keep your baby's bedding clean and tidy.

When selecting a cot, it is important to take measurements of the space in your nursery and verify the dimensions to ensure it's suitable before you purchase. The gap between the bars should be no greater than 6.5cm. This is for safety reasons.

Silver Cross Nostalgia is a cot which can accommodate a 120 x 60cm standard mattress and has stunning sleigh-style frames. It is built to last with quality materials and a sturdy construction. It's also simple to adapt to your child's increasing requirements. It's more expensive than other cribs on our list, and you will need to buy a mattress separately.

The Mamas & Papas Franklin cot which we believe to be the best value cot, is a ideal choice for a smaller nursery. It's loaded with extra features such as teething rails. There are two height positions that can be adjusted to suit your baby's growth. It is also super easy to assemble. It comes with a mattress, however, you'll need another one for the toddler conversion.

Comfort

As a parent, you want your child to enjoy an enjoyable, safe sleep environment. One of the most beneficial options to ensure they get an adequate night's sleep is to choose a small cot bed that has a comfortable mattress. These mattresses are more rigid than the traditional cot mattress however they are soft enough to ensure your child has a comfortable night sleep.

These mattresses are cushioned to help prevent the retention of heat, which can cause discomfort in some babies. The materials used in the mattress are not irritants and chemicals, as well as other substances that could cause irritation to your baby's skin.

These mattresses are a great option for back and side sleepers, since they provide good support for the neck, head and body. These mattresses can be used together with the built-in cradle that comes with the cot, which is beneficial for reflux or colic.

It is essential to determine the mattress's size and make sure that it will fit in the base of the cot prior purchasing a small cot. Find out if the cot mattress has any specific rules or regulations, for instance a minimum thickness.

If you're looking for a cot bed that can adapt to your child's needs take a look at this adaptable design from Vox. It's initially an cot, but it can be converted into a toddler bed, thereby saving you from the expense of buying another bed when your baby is ready for it.

The user-friendly configuration of this cot was praised by our panel. Mum Grace stated that it "came from the box and was unfolded like an outdoor chair". The middle joints snap into place and the cot folds into itself without a complicated mechanism to deal with. It's also compact and lightweight, fitting neatly into a carry bag that's smaller than a camping chair's case and ideal for taking it to the grandparents' homes.

The cot is extremely comfortable, despite being larger than other models in our tried-and-tested collection. It's made to feel like a mattress and has plenty of padding and a springy base that can absorb weight without making your baby feel like they're bouncing around in a bouncer. It's also a sturdy, stable option for both side and back sleepers, but senior editor Nick Belcaster noted that stomach sleepers might struggle with it.

Safety

It is essential to ensure that the cot you select is safe for your baby. Look for the BS EN code or BS8509 when you're looking to transform it into a toddler's bed. It is also important to ensure that it's the correct size for your nursery and has enough room for a safe sleeping environment for your child. It should be at least 140cm x 70cm and there shouldn't be gaps around the edges or corners.

Make sure that the mattress is flat and firm. It could pose an entrapment hazard if it is soft or old, or damaged. Examine for any areas of sagging which could be hazardous, and test to see how quickly the mattress will spring back after pressing on it. When you press on the middle of a good quality cot-mattress it should feel solid.

Keep the cot free of toys, smudges and anything else that could cause choking. It is essential that babies move around freely and roll over as they sleep. If your cot is equipped with drop-sides, make sure you check it regularly to make sure the mechanism is secure.

Avoid placing a cot next to an open radiator or a sunny window. It is possible that they will become too hot or wake up with sunburn. Make sure the cot is kept away from cords on wall mounted curtains, baby monitor cables, and decorative accessories that have long cords. Babies could be strangled by these cords, and older children may pull themselves up on them or reach out to grab the cot bars.

This cot is well worth the extra expense for those who want a Scandi-style and a high quality finish. The instructions are clear and the wood feels sturdy. It takes a while to put together. It's not expensive however it will last your child right into their toddler years and look stunning in any nursery.

Design

When shopping for a small cot bed, it's crucial to remember that you're likely investing in something that will last for years. In contrast to cribs, which are used only for a brief period of time, cots to tots are appropriate from the moment a child is born until they can easily transition to an adult bed or a single bed. To ensure that the crib you're buying will last, look out for a model with adjustable heights for the base. This feature allows you to lower the mattress's height as your child grows, making sure they are in a safe and comfortable position for longer.

Another useful design feature to keep an eye out for is the ability to remove sections of cot bars. This will provide your child with the feeling of independence as they start to toddle and make it easier for them to get in and out of bed. To make it even more flexible the cot beds, such as the Leander Luna Baby Cot can also be converted into a comfortable sofa by removing the front of the bed.

Many cots come with slatted designs that are perfect for small spaces, as they allow air to circulate and regulate the temperature of your baby. This makes a large difference when it comes to comfort, and can make the difference to ensure your baby gets an adequate night's rest.
