BabyDan Extra Large Travel Cot, 60x120cm (Baby Playpen) - Versatile Comfort for Your Baby's Sleep and Play

Having read other reviews and trawling through the many travel cots I decided to buy the babydan and have no regrets what so ever. I bought it in black over blue because of the price difference. This is an excellent travel cot. The cot is incredibly easy for one person to put up and can be fully set up and usable within minutes. Folding the cot away is just as simple; and it folds down into such a compact size which is then stored in a carry case that it is easy to stoe away. I would recommend this cot for a number of reasons: It is lightweight, compact, it is a full size cot, can be used as a playpen, it is simple to errect and dismantle, it is very strong and sturdy, my baby loves to be in it, it has a useful storage pouch at one end. I intially set the cot up in the sitting room as a play pen/nap time cot. It is a full size cot so does take up some room but it means that the cot will last for several years before the baby outgrows it. The base is very strong althoguh the matress is too hard for the baby to sleep on for any length of time over a period of time. This can be easily rectified by layering the matress with a towel or additional blankets. I have taken the cot to Germany. It packed so compactly that there was no chance of it being damaged in the plane. It has been designed to tow the cot on wheels as you would tow your suit case which is very practical. The price is excellent compared to others on the market. I can't speak highly enough for this cot. It has so many uses from being a cot, playpen, use for travel to friends houses, grandparents or abroad. It is so versatile, lightweight with easy assembly, it folds down well, at such a good price and it is built to last. I would recommend it with no hesitation.

Bought this to go in our travel cot as after removing the bassinet layer our baby stopped sleeping as it was so hard. Perfect mattress folds in and out so easily and fits in a bag to make transportation more easy!

Easy to put up/pull down. Well made. Strong. A great size, not small like a lot of travel cots.

Bought this when my DC was 1 year to leave at my mums; once you get the hang of it it's simple to open up and very sturdy. Slightly tricky getting to grips with the mechanics of opening and closing but once you master this it takes minutes. My son is almost 3 and tall for his age but is still very comfortable in the BabyDan; still left with loads of space even if he's sprawled out in it. Happy we bought this.

I need a bigger travel cot for my son. Although he is 3 years old, he is autistic and finds it difficult to stay in bed, so a larger travel cot for holidays and sleepovers was required. It is elegant (as elegant as a travel cot can be), easy to put up and down, strong and pretty robust. Bought an additional mattress for extra comfort but for occasional use I’m sure the padded base is sufficient. It is also a great price considering its size. All in all, I’m very happy with it.

The mattress folds to a convenient size for travel, however it’s not good for sleeping - it’s made out of a super soft foam, no support whatsoever.

Works perfectly in our red kite travel cot. Wanted a mattress that could fold down easy for travel and could stay clean with going in and out the car and it's been perfect.

Despite what the instructions tell you to do (they are wrong!), you need to pull up and lock the sides and the ends BEFORE putting any pressure into the middle to make it flat. If you put pressure and make it flat first, 2 of the sides will not lock. Once you know this, it is SO simple to assemble and is very sturdy. As previous reviewers have said, the 'mattress' that is included is more like a base than a mattress - we bought another mattress (size 120 x 60cms) and it fits perfectly.
