However, you may find some older versions of cribs are still on sale that only match the previous safety standard. Keep in mind that Georgina did find the outer fabric was prone to creasing when unpacked from the travel bag. With seven beautifully neutral colourways to choose from and a sleek, simple design, the SnuzPod is definitely a wise choice for parents wanting a bedside crib that’s not just practical, but good-looking too. For parents who travel a lot, or those who want to keep their baby close to them all day during those first few months, the easy and quick fold and portability of this crib make it a really tempting option.The shape is easy on the eye, and it feels like an extension of our adult bed rather than a cumbersome baby contraption strapped to the side. The drop-down sides are easily removed for nighttime access by releasing the safety catch on the top bar and undoing the zips. Having said that, it’s easy to push it around our bedroom and into the nursery, when no longer attached to the bed, as it glides on the carpet. SnuzPod 4 packs comfort, breathability, and safety all in one expertly designed crib that will see your baby going from awake, to zzz in no time. We also check how well the cover fares after several washes and see if there’s any fabric shrinkage or bobbling.

The lowest height setting for SnuzPod⁴ in bedside mode is 53cm, and every crib comes complete with straps to attach it to multiple bed styles including divan, ottoman, and framed beds.Some bedside cribs offer a tilt option, which may help babies with digestive issues, colic or reflux. For example, if you have a divan bed you will need longer straps, and may not be able to tuck the legs of the crib underneath the bed and may need to look for a model that has foldable legs or works with your bed style. MFM judges and testers were particularly impressed with the firmness of its hypo-allergenic airflow mattress. As a safety feature, the CoZee can also only be rocked when it is set up as a standalone crib - when used as a bedside crib, it has flip-out feet which prevents it from doing so. For more safety information we've also covered breathability, bedding and how to use the tilting function here.

SnuzPod⁴ fits more beds than any other traditional bedside crib, with a maximum height (to the top of the adult mattress) of 73cm. You cannot deny the quality and superlative craftmanship of the SnüzPod4, but this product actually goes way beyond that. It's on wheels, so it can be moved around the room or away from the bed with ease, and it also folds down to a more compact size for travel, although our testers felt it was not really a travel cot in the traditional sense, and is still quite bulky and heavy in its carry bag. Indeed, since the Back To Sleep campaign was launched in the UK 30 years ago, SIDS [Sudden Infant Death Syndrome] has fallen by 80%.The Chicco Next2Me Magic is the latest update to the original Next2Me side-sleeping crib, which has won fans for its versatility.

The mattress cover can also be removed and machine washed, however, it’s worth investing in a waterproof mattress cover to protect it from any unexpected leakages. A bedside crib fastens to the frame of your bed on one side, so you're effectively lying next to your baby. We also want to ensure it’s not possible to assemble the crib incorrectly, and that instructions and parts are clearly marked so you can put the crib together correctly. Creating a safe sleeping space for baby, right next to you, is not only practical during those first six months but also so reassuring for anxious new parents. While keeping baby close, you’re minimising the increased risk of suffocation and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) that’s associated with sharing a bed with your baby.While baby’s comfort is key, weary-eyed parents need a voice too, and we can honestly say the reassurance of having our baby so close, and without easy reach was a blessing. There's no drop-down side, instead the mesh side has enough give that you can push it down to reach in and get your baby.
