recommendation on deciding baby crib model and nappy changing area

Hi mummy! I use Joie Illusion Cot - has a pull-out changing table and can be converted into playpen. I used the built in changing table until about 3-4 months then before baby start rolling I switched to using a waterproof mat on the bed. For the cot itself I feel like I preferred the mesh side because now that my baby is 7 months old and pulling up to stand, I lower the bed to the playpen level and he practises inside the cot so that when he falls he doesn't hit anything hard 👍 For the first 7 months I also stored all his stuff under the cot 🤣 so I feel it works pretty well. Only thing is some parts of the cot fabric isn't removable so cannot wash just the fabric - need to take out the entire piece. And for the first few months my baby sometimes peed when we open diaper LOL so it was a bit troublesome
