How easy it is to keep clean? Can it be cleaned by hand or is an easy-to-clean mattress cover required? How big is the mattress and can it be lowered or raised lower to accommodate your bed? It is easy to move, but how heavy is it?

Mum test subject Jasmine particularly loved the fact that the crib swivels, which made it easier to reach into and out of to take her newborn. She also appreciated the size of it and said it's not as large bedside cot as a standard crib, but it's larger than the standard Moses baskets and is comfortable for babies. It is also easy to assemble and folds flat for easy transport. Some mums found it a little heavy, however, and this may be an issue for those with mobility issues.

The Maxi-Cosi Lora is another option that you can look into. It was awarded Gold in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for the Best Cot or Crib.

Budget

The best cribs for beds are ones that sit right next to your bed, so you can keep an eye on baby and attend to feedings at night and changing nappy without having to get out of your own bed. They'll typically have sides that fold or zip down easily to allow you to reach over in the dark to grab them, and they should also be breathable for comfort. The majority will have a bed, which is ideal as you don't want it to be too soft or lumpy.

You must also consider how easy it is to build - some cribs are more simple than others, and the more complex models costing more. Consider whether the crib is made to be a perfect fit for your bed or not. Some cribs are only suitable for the specific divan base. This could be a problem if you have a bedframe that is more unusual.

The popular Next2me Magic crib is a good choice for those with a divan bed, and was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards to be the best Cot Crib, Crib or Moses Basket. It was well-made and has a high mesh side to let you see the baby's face. Our mom testers have given it a thumbs up. It has a shelf that can be used for blankets or nappies and weighs just 10kg.

Another alternative is the SnuzPod4, which is available in a range of colours and our moms have been very pleased with it too. The SnuzPod4 is slim, sleek option that still offers plenty of space for babies to rest comfortably. Our mothers are also awed by features, such as the incline option which aid in reducing reflux, as well as a soothing rocking mechanism.
