These cribs are fantastic for helping to build independence in your child as they grow more comfortable in their own sleeping space.

In terms of safety the cot is padded and has mesh sides for increased airflow, and the mattress is made from high-density foam for extra protection. It is also wipeable, so you can keep the crib clean. It comes with a fitted mattress sheet that can be used for the crib.

The Roomie Glide, unlike some other cribs for beds, is compatible with most beds including divans. This is thanks to the clips and straps that connect it. It can also be used as a stand-alone crib if it is not attached to the bed. It's packed with amazing features that were designed with parent-baby bonding in mind.

One thing to bear in mind is that even though this crib is perfect for newborns, it won't last long after your child is six months old, which means you'll require larger cots. Overall, Roanna thought that the Joie Roomie Glide crib was a great buy. She loved its sleek design.

John Lewis sells the Roomie Glide for PS160. Roanna thought this was a reasonable price for such an item. She liked how it looked in her bedroom and thought its gray color would be appropriate for most modern homes. She did mention that it's not an ideal idea to rock a baby in the early years because it can create an unfavourable sleep pattern for later.

We love that it's made of soft fabrics with mesh sides that are breathable, which promote airflow and comfort. It's available in oak and charcoal and has a variety of melange fabric options that blend well with most decor styles. Anna discovered that it was sturdy and secure once attached to her bed. The legs snapped into place and the zippers were secure for security. It took Anna approximately 10 minutes to put together and didn't require any tools. There are clear instructions along with a video and customer support number if you experience any issues.

The Chicco Next2Me Magic

This is one of the more expensive options, however it is packed with lots of features. It's designed to function as a side sleeper or standalone crib, and is suitable for babies up to six months. It is easy to open and close the side panel using a brand new mechanism. It's also more flexible than its predecessor with 11 different height levels and feet that retract to place under any bed.

Our testers loved the easy access the side panel provides, which can be moved up and down at the touch of one button. This was a huge help in feedings at night, as it meant they could easily reach inside and take their baby away without disturbing them.

The side panel can be removed by itself, too, but it's not recommended as this increases the chance of your child falling out of the cot. However, the patented safety locking mechanism guarantees that it can only remain in place when it is attached to the parent's bed correctly. This is a wonderful feature to have for peace mind, especially if you're breastfeeding and require frequent nighttime feedings.

The Chicco Next2Me Magic is designed to work with any bed that includes divan bases as well as beds with drawers thanks to the legs that can be telescopic. It also has a tilting function for reflux babies and a rocking mode to help them sleep after feeding. It's also very spacious and has excellent ventilation thanks to its mesh sides.

Our test participants found the Next2Me Magic easy to set up and use, although it does come with an extensive instruction manual. It's a bit heavier than other side-sleepers but it's still fairly mobile and bedside cot reviews can be moved from room to room easily. It's also small enough to fit in a travel bag when not in use which is a plus in the event that you have to transport it. The only issue our testers found is that the side panel didn't flex as much compared to other models. This made it a bit harder to see the baby from your bed.

A gentle incline option helps to reduce colic and reflux, while the zip down side allows you to feed or soothe your baby throughout the night.

The conversion kit for cots (sold separately) is also well-designed, with clear instructions and everything you need to begin. It took us about an hour to put together and was relatively simple. The only issue was the lack of captions written on a few of the images, which made it difficult to comprehend some of the steps. Overall, it was a straightforward process and the quality of materials employed was of a high standard.

In the co-sleeping position, we found the Shnuggle Air to be an excellent option for breastfeeding mothers and women who have had a C-section as it allows them to easily reach out to their baby for comfort and feeding without having to get up from their own bed. It's also great for mothers who wish to avoid the stress of getting into and out of a traditional cot, or putting their baby down for a nap.

The gliding motion was found to be very helpful in lulling babies to sleep following feedings at night or midday. The drop-down sides make it easy to feed or soothe babies throughout the night. This was a big selling point for our tired test moms. The Joie Roomie Glide is a modern and stylish crib that doesn't rock, nor has extra features like an audio system.
