Style and Design

Obaby Maya Mini Cot Bed, our top pick for this category, is a stunning piece that is easy to put together and looks great in any room. It's also very sturdy and the only cot we test that we believe will endure the test of time. The narrow bars allow for easy cleaning, as there are no places where dust can accumulate. As your baby grows and develops, you can lower the base to prevent them from climbing out. The teething rails protect them from their sharp teeth.
Another beautiful piece is the Silver Cross Nostalgia - a gorgeous sleigh-style cot that's ideal from birth and can be converted into a bed for toddlers using an extension kit (sold separately). The three different heights will keep your little one comfortable as they grow but the fiddly assembly process may turn off some. It's also expensive, but worth it if you're looking for an elegant design that will last for a long time. Gemma is the mother of Boden, aged 13 months.
