Maxi-Cosi Swift 3-in-1 Travel Cot, Lightweight Travel Cot, Foldable Travel Cot, Suitable from Birth, 0 - 3.5 Years, 0 - 15 kg, Beyond Graphite

Product Information

For the maximum blend of space and compactness, choose the KidCo PeaPod Plus Travel Bed. As the larger version of the standard PeaPod already mentioned on this list, it’s for children aged 6 months to 5 years, yet still weighs in at just 3.65 pounds. When not used, it folds flat into a compact circle that can be easily slung over the shoulder or carried in hand. We loved that it’s small enough for easy air travel or to realistically keep in the trunk of your car for “just-in-case” situations. The manufacturer’s description claims that the crib takes one second to fold or unfold; however, our tester timed assembly at three minutes and disassembly at less than two. We did find it incredibly easy to set up, earning the crib a near-perfect score for this element of the testing process. At 15.4 pounds, it isn’t the lightest cot on this list and probably not the most convenient choice for air travel. However, we loved that its full size and sturdy construction meant it could double as your permanent crib. Your first night at home with your baby is a new experience for all of you, but you can make this experience a comfortable one for you and your baby by using a co-sleeper. Our Iora co-sleeper allows your baby to sleep safely, while still just an arm’s reach away. It’s adjustable in height to ensure that it is perfectly aligned to your bed. And as with all of our home equipment collection, it looks sophisticated and modern in your home.

There’s even a side exit aimed at keeping older toddlers entertained when they’re using it as a play area. I’m not sure how much you’d use some of these features such as the changing table but it’s a nice option if you need it. (I’d personally prefer to use a mat on the floor).We did find that figuring out the bassinet attachment took us several minutes—however, once learned, this process would be much shorter. The crib also features a zip-open panel for easy access, mesh walls for clear views and optimum ventilation, and a triple-layer mesh mattress for ultimate breathability. We found it very sturdy even when moved around and subjected to our sandbag tests. The quality of the materials is top-notch. It is relatively heavy (20 pounds)—however, a good quality carry bag with handles on the top and bottom makes transportation easy. Dream On Me Nest Portable Play Yard With Carry Bag And Shoulder Strap: Although four separate testers tried, we could not successfully assemble this crib, which we found to be frustrating and useless. A safe and comfortable travel crib is an essential accessory for parents who want to travel with their little ones without restriction. Sleepovers with friends and family, local road trips, and even international adventures—the world is your oyster with the right one. Some can be used as a permanent sleeping place for your baby or toddler, while others adapt throughout the first stages of their life from bassinet to cot or playpen. Things to consider include how long you want to use the crib, what you want it for (and, therefore, whether lightness or size is the greater priority), and how much you’re willing to spend. Maxi-Cosi Swift grows with your baby from birth through to 3.5 years of age. So instead of buying three separate portable products (a bassinet, a toddler cot and a play pen), the Swift is all three, stylishly rolled into-one. Like any parent, I always worry about my baby being at the right temperature when they’re sleeping, so I really appreciated the ventilated mattress with advanced air design™ that allows air to flow freely from every angle. This feature would be particularly reassuring on holiday in a hot country or a warm hotel room.

With the help of my two sons aged one and three, we tested them at home as a sleep and play space and while visiting grandparents for the weekend. We also tested on holiday in Portugal. I was looking for low weight and ease of travel, how easy they were to set up and put down again, and how well my baby slept in them. Quality of fabrics and the overall design were also important considerations.Our Maxi-Cosi Iris and Maxi-Cosi Swift both have the unique option to change from a newborn travel cot to a toddler travel cot. So whether you are having a sleepover at the grandparents in those first months, or taking a trip as a family with an almost 1 year old, one of our Maxi-Cosi travel cot with mattress included will help you and your little one sleep!

The Sleep & Go is safe and suitable for using as a play pen and fits children up to the age of three. I was actually very surprised when my older son hopped in the cot to play with his toys and actually seemed to fit in quite nicely - which he still does whenever it’s out.

It's possibly too heavy to be a true travel crib.

You should always consult the manufacturer’s guidelines before cleaning your travel crib since best practices differ from one model to the next. However, most can be spot-cleaned with warm water and a soft cloth, while the best feature fabrics can be removed and machine-washed when necessary. Many come with waterproof mattresses that can also be wiped clean. If yours doesn’t, after-market mattress protectors are often available, although you should always consult an expert before adding anything to your baby’s sleeping environment.
