Three tips for buying a travel cot
Travel cots for babies. There are special travel cots for babies. They are smaller, and often have some kind of legs or other construction that allows your baby to be slightly raised from the floor. If your baby is going to sleep in a regular travel cot, you can make it more snug using a baby nest.
Travel cots for slightly older children: Travel cots for slightly older children generally have the same dimensions as ordinary cots, which usually work for up to 2-3 years of age. The weight limit is usually 15-20 kg, unless it is a model in which the base plate rests on the floor.
Unfolded travel cot. Choose a cot that is adapted to the child’s height and weight, and remember to have a little room for growth, as children grow quickly.
Folded travel cot. If you want to take the cot along on your trip, this must be easy. For hand luggage, the weight limit is 8 kg and the dimensions are 55x40x23 centimetres.
For more tips on travelling with young children, the National Childbirth Trust has compiled a guide.
A sturdy travel cot with a wide base that rests directly on the floor can function as a playpen. There are also versions with short sides that can be opened, and a small gangway so that the child can crawl in and out of bed during the day.
