The pop-up design means that it’s easy to assemble – it literally springs out of the bag and into shape. They mention that it is easy to put up and take down, and that it takes up hardly any room for travelling. I felt mega excited to find it, pondered a bit and then I bought one as there really did not seem to be anything better on the market. The Velcro fasteners will also be compromised if you attempt to push blankets down the ends or sides. Having said that the travel crib is small, it was actually really spacious inside, with more than enough room for my 6 week old baby.

Getting it back into its bag can take a bit of doing: can a bit like trying to put a jumper on an octopus. As parents, we have always believed that life is an adventure and it really is possible to take your children anywhere.We have been on the look out for a travel cot that is compact enough to travel with, fits in our campervan easily and that our baby boy won’t grow out of too quickly – and I think we have found it! With a quick and easy pop-up design, this travel cot is perfect for quiet little naps, or keeping your baby sheltered from the sun, wind or rain whilst they play in a secure environment.

As it is lightweight and easy to carry around, the cot can also be used for daytime naps when out and about. I was weary about the black out but its actually got a good zip on the side which is dark when closed. Funky and fun, Koo-Di not only provides solutions which often pose the question: ‘why didn’t I think of that? Weighing just over 2kg, the Koo-di Bubble Travel Cot is the perfect solution for holidays abroad or closer to home.When I decided to go backpacking with our baby and realised that many hotels charge extra for a cot, I decided to look for a portable one . Also I have a 13 month that I am looking at this form and worry it could topple over with him in it?
