+ Attractive Winnie the Pooh design, includes bar with dangling characters for babies to look at. Once you've got the hang of it, it's very easy to get out and fold up again.

- It is very heavy to carry.

C, Exeter

+ great value, looks good. comes in a standard cot size so that we could insert a normal cot blanket and use standard cot sheets. very simple to set up and put down again, similar to other branded travel cots. stores away in a handy carry bag.

- as with most travel cots, the mattress is very thin, and the overall weight (although fantastic for what it is) is a little heavy for carrying long distances.

Claire, Coventry

+ The toy bar is brilliant and our little fella has spent many minutes playing with it. The cot is easy to assemble and dismantle. The colours are bright and the mattress is a good thickness.

- It's a little heavy but we knew that when we bought it. Once your child can stand I wouldn't use the toy bar unless you're going to be in the same room at all times.

Sian, Folkestone

+ good mobile and my son loves the whinnie the pooh print on the side, its very safe and a good size.

- took me a while to work out how to set the travel cot up and the mattress doesnt fit in standard cot size fitted sheets which is a little bit annoying.

+ Easy to assemble, small when folded so easy to store. Looks good. Plenty of room for the baby once in.

- Because it is a deep cot can ache when leaning over for any period of time, i.e trying to settle your baby or doing a dream feed.

Emma, Luton

+ Lovely design. Clear instructions on the mat as to how to put up and fold down. My little girl slept very well in it. The price was very reasonable when I bought it. Really lovely travel cot.

- Bag is a little flimpsy for the weight of the cot. It is quite heavy, but I understand that a strong frame is required for a travel cot.

P Barker, Yorkshire, “A very proud Grandma!”

+ It's slightly smaller than the average travel cot (our main reason for buying it as we don't have much room to spare) and as such is slightly more flexible for use in places such as caravans. It is very easy to put up providing you do things in the correct order and just as easy to put down. My grandson slept very well in it, especially as he hadn't slept in his own cot before his visit.

- The only downside of this travel cot' as far as i'm concerned 'is that it doesn't have a bassinet option. This would be very handy, but not essential. It just seems a long way down for a two month old!

- Takes quite abit of working out how to dismantle it, instructions not to clear, but once you get the hang of it, its ok. I find it quite heavy to carry.

- We can't actually put it up. The clips that hold it together are far too stiff and we can only get them to click into place on 2 sides and then we can't get it to fold back down again. It was a complete waste of money.
