Hi,

I'm desperately trying to find a Brio / Global Bedside Cot.

There were only a couple I could locate - both in the Manchester area, which is a bit too far to drive from London and the courier would charge at least £150 to have it delivered.

Is there anyone out there looking to sell one?

Alternatively, I'd appreciate if you could recommend a bedside cot (ideally, with the side going up and over, rather than under the cot - do these exist?!). Also, it would be nice to have the regular drop side function for when we're ready to use it as a regular cot.

Thanks!!!

No idea about the Brio, I know it isn't made any more so you might be hard pushed. I have the mothercare one and it is great so far. The side goes under which is not what you would prefer but I like that as then I can pop her in her cot during the day without having to climb all over my bed trying not to wake her!

I think only Mothercare and Cosatto do them now, but sides go under the cot.
I managed to get a Mothercare one locally from eBay, got to keep checking though.
Mamas and Papas used to do a fab one that had a bolster to put in the gap. Not sure why none of them are doing them now.

I used an arms reach co-sleeper, which was great.
It looks more like a travel cot.
If you google it you will be able to see if you fancy it.

Was just looking around myself and saw this on Gumtree? Crofton Park is down Lewisham way

I have a cossatto one, as i couldnt get a brio one two years ago, it is ok but the side going underneath is a pita if baby naps in the day and you want the side up, when i had dd i didnt have enough room to push cot back to put side up again

Thanks for that shakespeare!
However, that is a bedside crib, rather than a cot. A crib is much smaller and will probably not last past 6months.

I have a global bedside cot but my DS2 slept in it again last week for the first time in more than six months (now as a very low bed), sigh. I fear he understood the word "flog". I'm too far away from you as well, so carriage would be too much.

Mine's just over five years old and was £150 new at the time, IIRC. Spending that much on a courier would indeed be bats!

Hi ThingOne! Where exactly are you located? If it's within reasonable distance from London, the courier charge might not be as much as from Manchester...

elk4baby - I have one of these if you're still looking. I was planning to list it on ebay over the coming week or so as I understand they're not made anymore so have a rarity value to them. Do get in touch if you're interested. I live in London.

Sorry should have been specific - a global bedside crib is what I have (I searched heaven and earth to find one when dd was born as it was just what I wanted).

i have two global bedside cots with sprung mattresses if you're interested.

Bump - I'm after a bedside cot (preferably the Brio one or the Cosatto) in the north west if anyone has one for sale.
Thanks

We are in london and have a global bedside cot for sale. Too far from you?

For any future posters, there's a company called Troll (weird name) which is doing the same design as the Global crib.

I think Kidsen do them. Am sure I saw them as bought my DD some Brio toys there for Christmas.

Pap. Out of stock.

Hi
I am just inside the M25 to the south. I have a global bedside cot bed in great condition that my four year old has just finished with. I was planning to ebay it but you are welcome to buy it. It is the cotbed not the cot though - this means it is bigger so it lasts the child longer because it turns into a toddler bed. I can email you some photos if you like.

How much would you be looking for with postage please?

Hi, We have a global bedside cot. We are planning to see it on ebay too. I could send you pictures. If you are interested, where are you looking for it to be posted to?

Hi Rupy

Will pm you x

Hi, I am also desperately looking for a brio / global bedside cot. If anyone is selling one, please let me know. I can arrange for courier, so location should not be a problem. Thanks.

Hi, I have a Brio bed side cot which have just stopped using. It's great. Thanks.
