Suggestions for an alternative to a moses basket

Hi all, looking for different options to a moses basket?

We've got a Snuzpod upstairs, but I gave away our bassinet. This was a large wicker one on wheels and lasted DS until 4/5 months.

I originally looked at a moses basket but saw a thread on here saying they don't last very long, so don't want to really waste money on something baby will out grow quickly.

So I'm trying to avoid large like before and don't want something low down like a travel cot incase of section and having to bend.

Probably can twist husbands arm to about a budget of £120 if its a really good crib.

Thank you :)

Is this for downstairs?
We just used a sleepyhead downstairs.
And then snuZpod upstairs

Downstairs we used the pram.
Also had a sleephead.
Next to me upstairs

I had a section and used the carrycot attachment for the pram with both of mine (with an extra mattress). Rather than have the pram chassis up in the house all the time, I bought a larger Moses basket stand for it.

We used the carrycot off the pram, worked like a dream

Yes downstairs sorry :)

@PPopsicle I've got a sleepyhead grand(?) But toddler is still in it as he loves his sleepyhead (and it stops him falling out of bed as he's a nutter sleeping). I'm also wary of him too, he's at the boisterous or crazy half hour age where he still can jump on me.

@AnnoyedByAlfieBear @SlB09 That's a good idea, I've got a pram carry cot attachment as I bought a Venicci pram combo, might be an option on a stand and I barely used it with DS. It's like new.
