When it comes to the most effective cot beds that we have reviewed, the Coxley ticks all the right boxes. It's well-made, simple to put together and looks stunning in any nursery. It is, however, a little more expensive than the other options on our list and will require a standard mattress (which you'll have to purchase separately).

The sleigh's design is stunning and will make any room your baby's the center of the attention! You can save money by purchasing accessories like teething rails and an organizer. We suggest buying an oval mattress instead of one of the standard UK size to prevent stretching the slats too far and causing discomfort to your Baby beds.
