Hi all,
We really like the look of the BedNest and are trying to figure out whether it'll work for us; we were hoping for a 'definitive' answer to a couple of queries now that the BedNest has been around for a good while.
We need to transport the cot a few times for use at stays with grandparents both in the UK, and also for extended stays in the USA. So my first question is:
i) How easy would you say it is to travel with the folded BedNest by plane? Would it fit in a big suitcase, say, or is the weight simply too much to justify international transport?
We also have the Ikea MALM bed that's referred to in similar posts on Mumsnet, and some people have reported issues with the gap between the edge of the bed mattress (which has a ledge around it) and the BedNest cot mattress. So my second question is:
ii) Does a folded towel adequately fill the gap and allow safe transfer of baby when the BedNest side panel is folded flat over the towel? And surely there can't be any major issue with the gap (towel or no towel) when the side panel is fully in place?
Would really appreciate any experiences, good or bad, that will help us decide, and any other issues of relevance. Also of help would be any other recommendations for adjustable height co-sleeping cots that can be easily transported from place to place.
Thanks!
