Valco Commuter Cot Plus

Good portacot – This has been a good cot. We used it when our baby was only 8 weeks old for a month and the change table and higher insert for infants was great (esp as I had a caesarean and it meant I didnt have to reach to the bottom of the cot). It is strong and sturdy - so felt safe. Relatively easy to put up. Have used on our trips away or for visitors children up until the age of 3 1/2. Strong and sturdy. Baby insert Bit heavy

Good – This is a great portacot, just as long as you're not planning on putting it together and pulling it apart on a regular basis. Although its heavy, it is very compact when folded up. This porta cot is fantastic. We bought it instead of buying a bassinet and have put our baby to sleep in it from one week of age. There are pockets on each side of the cot which come in handy for storage of nappies, wipes etc. The change mat is also very useful and comfortable for the baby. We have used this change mat more than our change table because you can clip your baby in so he/she doesn't move while you go and wash your hands. It is very heavy and takes a little while to put together so I'm not sure how portable it really is.

Good – This portacot does what it says. It is ok to put up and down but no portacot is particularly easy. It comes with alot of gadgets (change mat, bassinet, nightlight, toy bar) but to be honest we haven't used any of these as we mostly just need a bed for bubs to sleep in. Having said that, a change table would be handy if you were camping or somewhere with limited space and I do keep on meaning to put batteries in the nightlight! Overall, it is a good portacot if you are wanting the extra features but I would have preferred a lighter (more portable) version. Sturdy, slightly bigger than other portacots so will last longer as toddler grows. Small nightlight in corner. Heavier than most other portacots, Possibly more gadgets than you really need in a portacot.
