Best travel cot?

7 replies

We are staying away overnight tomorrow - arranged last minute. DS is 10 months.
Could you please recommend me a comfortable travel cot? That's our biggest priority. Size etc doesn't matter. A friend has offered to lend us a Little Life Arc but the reviews say the mattress is pretty thin.
It probably won't get masses of use - but I will do what I can to get a good nights sleep!

Tbh most travel cot mattresses are thin. I’ve bought another mattress to go on mine which works well (you need to check sizes as cots are different sizes) , or you could use a think duvet or some blankets to pad out the mattress. I just put a sheet on top.

Thanks!
I looked at an extra mattress but the Little Life Arc seems unusually wide

We have a huack XL travel cot and you can get an extra mattress for it which folds up to make it more comfortable. It also takes standard size cot sheets which is useful. It is as about £35 from Mothercare.

We have the cheap and cheaper fuel
Red kite £30 job. And bought an additional 5cm thick mattress for it from amazon. DD sleeps incredibly well in it; often better than at home!

Brilliant thanks - I'll have a look now!

We have a Hauck one as well, secondhand from a relative, perhaps the same as PP because we also bought the extra foldy mattress for it as well. DD has only slept in it a handful of times at her DGM's, she mostly uses it as a playpen there. Our friends came to stay with us with their 6 month old DD fairly recently for a few nights and she slept fine on it.
