You’ll find that the added extras will usually need to be carried separately once the frame is folded down. However, we understand that somehow, sometimes, somewhere, someone may be selling the item you want for less!

Also, the more often you travel, the easier it is to get your money’s worth out of a more expensive travel cot. The Graco foldlite is excellent value for a lightweight cot that’s easy to erect and collapse, and we felt both our seven-month-old and two-year-old testers were safe in there. Our Koo-di travel cots are a brilliant choice as well, and in addition to a padded mattress they even feature an integrated mosquito net - ideal if you're holidaying somewhere warm! The mesh means that you can get a great view of your baby or toddler, while also ensuring good air circulation at night time.With a quick and easy pop-up design, this travel cot is perfect for quiet little naps, or keeping your baby sheltered from the sun, wind or rain whilst they play in a secure environment. To keep your bundle of joy comforted and close to you while you're on the move, a baby carrier is a great choice.

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.

It can be raised via a zip-in bed insert, and this transforms the cot into a bassinet that’s perfect for newborns or younger babies.

Well, look no further than our classic sleigh cots that will convert from a bassinet to a cot, and to a toddler bed and day bed. The Airpod Travel Cot is suitable from birth, but it doesn't come with a bassinet, something that you might prefer for a newborn.This design means there's no weight limit, a real plus point for parents with heavier-than-average toddler.

The Babylo Deluxe Drop Side Travel Cot is a 2 in 1 solution perfect for traveling and co-sleeping, suitable from birth and includes a removable newborn bassinet. MFM reviewer Helen who tested the Chicco Next2Me Pop Up with her 1-month-old son Alessio said, "The Pop Up works very well as a crib for the early months of a baby’s life, especially for people who will be travelling a lot with a young baby, because it is so easy to put up and down. Obviously, it needs to be appropriate for the age and size of your child, but you’ll also want to take note of how portable it is, how quickly it can be assembled – and how much you want to spend.

Could it be moved around easily, particularly through doorways, from one room to another, and up and down the stairs? Go for a design that lets you carry your baby in multiple ways depending on their age and preference. The Babylo Deluxe Drop Side Travel Cot is a 2 in 1 solution, perfect for travelling and co-sleeping. It can be constructed in minutes and folds up to a suitcase size, although it's sadly not quite small enough to take as hand luggage on a plane. Lightweight and perfectly portable, these are easy to pack and just as easy to pop up once you reach your destination.
