Baby is only eight months old so we have not taken the sides off to make it into a cot bed yet but it will look just as stylish as a cot bed. Although this is a great cot bed i find the bars are very flimsy when knocked or leaned against even when my son rolls onto them. My only dislikes are the fact that the sides don't drop so now they mattress is lower it's harder to put him in/lift him out. I’m quite short and to place my baby into this cot bed whilst she was asleep at the lowest setting on the cot was sooooo hard for me.

You are unable to lower to cotside when putting baby in which can make it difficult when the height has been lowered. As a notable specialist retailer with decades’ worth of experience in all things baby related, Mothercare is here to help parents and children create their life story. The cot however seems to be where this set is let down, I think the mattress should have a lower option to set the mattress level as my little one is almost escaping already and the wooden panel that runs around the top has been chewed by my constantly teething baby shark, which has peeled off the wood effect.It matches perfectly with the wardrobe and changing unit from the same collection and is made from real wood veneer and solid wood. The design and quality is lovely and comfortable and we also have the matching drawer unit and wardrobe. It's a bit of a faf to change the highs but once you do it's for a good few months anyway so not much of an issue.

Mothercare Harrogate Cot Bed - Reviews - ConsoBaby

The Mothercare Harrogate Cot Bed, a part of the Harrogate range,can be used from birth to approximately four years and converts easily from a cotbed into a toddler bed.I can not fault the wardrobe or the changing table/drawers as they are beautiful, strong and after a year and a month, still immaculate even with a super sturdy baby bashing about. There is space under the toddler bed to use as storage and my little boy is very happy sleeping in his own room in this bed. A few people have mentioned the fact that there is no drop down side on the cot but you can't mark it down for that because safety guidelines now dictate that cots shouldn't have this feature.

The sides are also a little flimsy so I'd be concerned about damaging/breaking the slats if moving it. The bed has three adjustable mattress heights depending on the size and age of your little one, the highest to be used for newborns and the lowest for when your child can stand. It was fairly simple to put together and my husband and I are useless at putting things together so that's a plus.The look of the cot bed is lovely in my sons nursery, I like that it changes in to a bed so worth the money.
