2. SnuzFino Cot Bed

This cot is designed to follow your baby from the time of birth to about four years old.

The cot is more compact than other models we tested. It's also suitable for smaller spaces. It also features a handy side door, allowing you to reach in easily for feeding, nappies or changing. Parents were amazed at the ease with which this cot was to set up and our tester took only 12 minutes to get it set up.

Look for cot beds that conform to safety regulations. All cots should have bars that are no more than 6.5cm apart to ensure that your baby's limbs cannot become trapped. Check that the slats of your cot are securely secured to avoid any loose or fittings that are rusty.

A quality mattress for your cot is essential to ensure your baby's comfort. Find pockets springs or latex coated coir mattresses, as these offer the best support and won't slide like foams. It's important to invest in a waterproof cover as well, as any soiling will go directly into the mattress and cause your baby to sweat or be uncomfortable.

Some cots come with extra bonuses like gentle rocking motions that help settle your baby (like the SNOO Smarter Cot), adjustable inclines to help ease reflux, and storage for the nappy essentials (like the Mamas&Papas Lua Bedside Cot). These are great crib additions, but only purchase items that are safe and suitable for your child.

No matter what kind of cot you pick, ensure that it complies with relevant regulations for your baby's age and your home. The distance between bars should not be more than 6.5cm (two inches) which will stop babies from snagging their heads. Additionally the surface should not be rough to avoid being suffocated. You'll also have to purchase the right cot mattress that is ideally sized with no gaps around the edges and made from breathable materials that keep your baby's temperature in check.

It's tempting, but carefully consider your budget and lifestyle prior to buying a cot that has extra features such as built-in storage and side panels that can be removed from the bassinet (as the Mamas & Papas Lua Cot). The best cots are simply designed for your baby to sleep comfortably and safely, and you can often find all-in-one cot beds that have plenty of storage space without costing a fortune.
