Some niggles, but certainly the best around at the moment, 31 Jan. 2015

This cot is an excellent purchase and I have recommended it to many mums to be. The cot turns to a three sided cot so can be pushed up against your bed, making it easy for you to get the baby in and out of the cot. The closeness to your own bed is very comforting for both me an my son. It is even more useful when my baby was sick, as I was close enough to feel comfortable and he was in his space where he was safest. The castors have locks to prevent unintended moving, but can be unlocked to allow easy changing of bed sheets and for cleaning underneath.

The sliding mechanism is not smooth to begin with and I was disappointed by this but I persevered and kept sliding it, which loosened up the sliding mechanism to my satisfaction. I found that the block at the bottom did not hold the sliding side of the cot in place properly and could quite easily be lifted by slipping my finger under the bottom edge, which was a real concern as I could imagine a baby or young child trapping...

Life saver!, 23 Mar. 2014

I bought this in a desperately sleep deprived state when my baby was 4 months. She would go to sleep quite happily in my arms but I could not put her down with out her waking up but with this cot I just roll over to feed her and when she's finished just roll back. I don't worry about falling asleep while feeding her and either dropping her, rolling out of the bed or me rolling on to her as she has her own space. I barely register that I have woken up and fed her as I don't even have to open my eyes. I got a lot more sleep. We've now moved the cot in to her own room and she is happy to go down there. This cot provides the most flexible sleeping options.

Terrible product!! Avoid at all costs, 17 July 2015

To begin with, the assembly instructions for this product was very poor. However, once it was fully assembled, was even more disappointed with it as the height of the base is only 1 feet from the ground. Even with the added height of a mattress, overall height is too low for use with a newborn baby (unless you intend to break your back). Product description should have included the exact height of the base positions.Furthermore, the drop side frame is very difficult to manoeuvre throughout the entire track.It's also a shame that amazon does not offer the 'contact seller' option for this product as I would have liked to try and contact the seller to request a refund for this terrible product, which compared to other bedside cots, is certainly priced at a premium for such an inferior product.-A very unhappy customer
