Where to buy a cot?!

[ceebee21]

Hi all,

Where did everyone buy their cot from ?!

TIA

Ikea. Great value for money, easy to build, sturdy (being used by my 2nd baby in 2 years just needed new mattress) also easy to adjusts. Took me 10 minutes while heavily pregnant to lower it for my son and 10 minutes to chi bags it back for a smaller baby once my daughter was ready to move into it from our room

Got offered two but after we had brought one from John Lewis. Mattress from John Lewis.

You can buy them second hand very cheaply they aren't worth anything second hand as you can buy a decent one new for some of the prices people put them on sale for. (The only reason didn't was delivery issues.) If you do get offered one free or a buy a second-hand one make sure the cot is only a few years old so it complies with current safety standards.

Also depending when you buy one some shops e.g. John Lewis, Argos have bundle offers on so you get a cot and mattress very cheaply.

Regardless of where you get one from make sure you buy a new mattress.

IKEA is great and cheap too. Nice plain white wooden cot that converts to s bed when they're a bit older.

Mothercare (I miss it!) Ikea / George at asda / John Lewis / Amazon / Argos all seem good options

Aldi have a cute looking cot bed atm too

Dunelm.

George at Asda, and the mattress too. Think the cot was £60 and the mattress was £20 - very happy with the quality of both.

Ikea here too. We bought their basic £39.99 cot , we used it for over 2 years and were very happy.

Ikea. It was about 40 euro. Did 2 kids. Highly recommend.

Wayfair

Ikea here as well. Lovely cot, very solid and easy to lower the mattress. Mattress and sheets cheap and easy to replace. The sides come off to make a cot bed but we have a tall child so by the time he was ready for the sides to come off he was almost as long as the cot!

Currently dismantled and under our bed until next year when DD due in Nov graduates from the next to me crib.
