Lots of hotels,
holiday homes and camp sites now provide
travel cots if you need them. But very
few homes have a spare cot for
little visitors so buying a
travel cot is a good investment.
We have
Tippitoes Cirrus Travel Cot which is a smart navy blue and is simplicity itself to
assemble as it literally just
opens out rather like an umbrella.
Once the
sides have clipped into
place and the
base pushed down you are ready for the
mattress which is then fixed to the
base. Two wheels at
one end make the cot
easy to move and there are
brakes to stop this happening while in
use!
The Cirrus Travel Cot is a good size 60cms x 118cms and 60cms deep so will
last until a child is ready for a
bed. The cot feels very
sturdy and safe.
The
mattress and surrounds can be
wiped clean. To pack away, just
remove the mattress, then reverse the umbrella movement and the cot,
wrapped in the mattress, simply
folds back into its
carrying bag when not in use.
Personally I'm really happy with the
design and
ease of use – and am delighted to have
baby Harriet to use the
Cirrus Travel Cot when she visits!
