Baby cot recommendation

Hi! Am having a hard time deciding on the baby cot and wanted to get some recommendations. Am torn between wanting a sturdy cot (looking at lulworth cot from Mothercare) vs movable cots/wheels (maybe Beblum starling cot). Anyone has experience or review on the above 2 cots, or any recommendation are welcome! #firsttimemom

Hi! Sorry, maybe this is a little far off haha but I got the Joie illusion cot + playpen instead!! For the following reasons: 1. Got it as a package with car seat and stroller at mummy's market! Definitely cheaper than online / stores 2. I'm staying with my MIL so we don't have a lot of space. The Joie illusion cot allowed me to store things underneath until baby was about 4 months, able to put all the necessities in the storage tray, and had built in changing table. Space saver! 3. This one is on hindsight, but my baby is so active and he learnt to roll, stand and walk in the cot - you have no idea how many times he has fallen backwards or just being goofy and pressed his face into the sides of the cot, and I just can't imagine having a wooden cot 🙂‍↕️ My only comment for a downside is that fabric traps dust and not every part can be removed and washed 🫨 Either way, perhaps you could consider factors like: size, price, mobility, weight limit, height adjustability, material, whether it grows with your child (e.g. convert into table) - in line with your personal lifestyle and ideal routine for your child :) atb!

I have a cot with wheels, and in the initial months, moved the cot everywhere with me. or if there are guests, the baby can be wheeled into the living room as well, so having wheels had always been something tt I needed.
