A premium option that will look great in nursery spaces that are reminiscent of Scandi. This sturdy and durable option can grow with your baby, with three mattress positions and the ability to remove the sides to create a chic bench style toddler bed.

Budget

There's a cot to fit every nursery and budget. There are also a range of options with various levels of longevity and some convert into toddler beds that can be used through the preschool years and beyond. Obviously, the ones that convert into beds tend to be more expensive, but the investment could be worth it if you want a cot that will last for years rather than just a few months.

The Mamas & Papas Coxley was our overall winner due to its elegant design and simple design making it a great choice for parents looking for an excellent crib that can stand the years. The sleek design and warm finish is perfect for a Scandi nursery. This cot bed comes with an adjustable drawer that mom tester Katrina considered to be a better choice than some less expensive cots that have a drawer built in. It also comes with an anti-bite strip on the top rails of the cot to prevent your child's teeth from getting caught. However, at over PS599 with a mattress sold separately the crib isn't cheap baby cots for sale. It does require an Allen key to get it up and running.

The cot for the Elementary is a cheaper option that will provide your baby a good night's sleep. It's part of the range called Anyday by John Lewis. The simple design and easy assembly were well-loved by our testers' parents. The cot is small when folded and can be put away easily, fitting into a carry bag that's about the size of the carry case of a camping chair. It's not the best choice for camping in the car however it's suitable for those living in apartments or who don't need to move their cot too much.

We recommend the SnuzKot as another cot for under $100, particularly when it comes with the toddler kit (sold separately) and mattress extender. It will expand with your child until they're around four years old, and our dad tester loved the fact that it was able to transform into a minimal-looking toddler bed and gave an ambiance of cocoons with its fabric canopy.

Safety

A good cot will not only meet UK safety standards but also feel sturdy and secure. Look for a robust design that includes safety bars or sides, as well as an erect base that your child can't be able to climb out. Some cot beds have additional features like teething rails and under-bed drawers, which can help you organize your home while your little one is growing.

Parent test participant Becki says that her Boori cot "has lasted through 3 children and is still beautiful." Its traditional design will fit in with any home and is made from sustainably sourced Australian Araucaria and New Zealand Radiata wood, so you'll feel comfortable about your purchase. It can be converted to a toddler bed (leaving three sides open to provide reassurance) and also has the option for an extension kit that can take it all the way to a double bed when your child is ready.

This elegant and simple cot sale is a great choice for those with a tight budget. It's easy to set up and comes with clearly labeled parts and clear instructions.

If you're looking for a premium cot, this is a great choice. It can be used as a cot and has four mattress positions. It'll last until your child are around three years old. It also can be folded flat and has locking wheels, making it convenient to move it from room to room.

This cot is very light at only 6kg and comes with a great crib bag to carry it around in. It's also extremely sturdy and has a sturdy frame that can handle noisy toddlers. The instructions were well-written and clear, however our testers found the assembly a little difficult. The slats were placed far enough apart to avoid fingers getting stuck between them. It is also more expensive than other cots we have reviewed, but the quality and durability make it a worthwhile investment.

Design

When buying a cot bed it's easy to get caught up in the specs and safety features, but don't overlook the style. The cot you choose for your baby will be used for a long time, therefore it's crucial to choose one you like and also is practical and functional.

The icklebubba Classic Cot bed is the best cot for design lovers. Its modern, sleek take on the classic sleigh style does not have the bulky feel that these types can have. It has plenty of space-saving storage such as the drawer that is built into the cot, as well as teething rails on the sides. It was sturdy and robust. The three-position height of the base allows it to grow with your baby.

The Modena cot-bed from Tutti Bambini is a great value and comes with an elegant panel design that will fit in with any nursery. It's made to last until your child reaches six years old, and then it transforms first into a junior bed and then into a stylish sofa bed. It's also among the only a handful of cots that we tested with the option of a drawer and a rail for teething and a hanging rail.

Another option that has a stylish panelled design is the Stokke Sleepie Cot Bed, that is available in a variety of colour options to coordinate with your nursery decor. The storage drawer was especially useful for bedding and clothes. Our mum testers were awed by its features. It is also one of the easiest cot beds to put together. The pieces are clearly labelled, and the instructions are simple to follow. It is also an excellent choice for those who have little space since it can be folded flat and then collapsed. It uses a standard cot-mattress (140cm by 70cm) and is suitable for children from birth to toddlerhood. A kit for extension allows it to be used up to 10 years old.

Convertability

There are many baby essentials you need to think about as the new parent. But one of the most important is a quality cot bed - you want something that will last for as long as you can and will grow with your child, giving them a safe and secure place to sleep.

While most cots and tots can be made into toddler beds by the purchase of a conversion kit, certain cots are designed to go beyond this. Our preferred choice is the Boori Eton Convertible Plus Bed, which transforms into a toddler bed (L207cm x W147cm x H90cm) and also a sofa and daybed (L234cm x W145cm x H70cm). This is the longest-lasting option on our list, since it should see your child through the years from birth until childhood.

It's a little more expensive than some of the other cot-beds we tried however, its high-end appearance and feel can be found in any nursery. Our parents who tested it were impressed with how easy it was to build and set up, although they did note that the instructions could be clearer. This isn't a big issue, however, as it was incredibly simple and took just 30 minutes to complete.

This cot has four different base heights for the mattress. This is an improvement over the three most common options. This gives you the ability to adjust it as your child gets older, because they might require a lower or higher base level based on their age and ability. It comes with teething rails that can be useful and a plastic strip at the top to keep it from becoming a bit.

This cot is available in several different Scandi-inspired finishes and our dad tester was attracted by the grey-colored finish. It's not expensive, but it does offer excellent value for money since it will see your child through to the age of toddler and beyond. Plus, it's covered by one-year warranties, so you have assurance that it's sturdy and durable. The only thing that you'll need to buy separately is the mattress.
