The depth is not enough that your child will be able to get out the panel, and the distance between slats must not be more than 65mm. This will prevent their heads from being stuck. It's worth bearing in mind that you'll need purchase a mattress on its own that is an additional PS88.

The cot stands out because of its sleigh-shaped design. It's also very easy to get your baby inside and out, which is another big plus. It's a bit more expensive than other cot beds, however our panel felt it was worth the extra cash for the look and durability.
