I spent hours researching travel cots, including going to shops to test how easily they errect, this included the phil and teds travel cot and the traditional travel cots. Here's my thoughts to help save others the time!
We bought the large blue NScessity travel tent because:
- it was the easiest to assemble (it pops up in a second)
- it is quick/easy to pack away (watch the demo on the NScessity website first)
- it is very light and we take it on flights, also easy for train/car
- our baby loves it because no matter where we have taken him, the inside is familiar to him, he feels safe and secure, he first slept through the night in his tent at 9 weeks!
- it gives us flexibility to go on holiday or to friends for dinner or lunch without disturbing our baby's routine or environment, because when he's inside he can't see that he's not in his own room
- a normal fitted cot sheet fits on the self inflating mattress. Put the mattress inside the tent with the soft covering on top of it, then the bed sheet, rather than slotting the mattress into the bottom flap of the tent
- it is suitable from birth, and can be used with child up to 4 years so excelent value for money
- we can use it inside, or outside at the beach or park with benefit of UV protection
- in the summer months when his room is bright at 7pm, even with a black out blind, we have slept him in his tent at home because it is darker and no mossies can get at him.
All in all, I don't normally write reviews, but as this is the best baby kit we've bought, felt I had to spread the word, we can't recommend it enough!

We researched travel cots before buying the NScessity model and it has not let us down. It is great value for money, spacious, well made and most imporatantly easy to put up and put down. It also has a very useful self-inflating mattress that comes as standard.
Our friends have a Nomad travel cot and we did a 'test drive' with it before buying anything. It was obviously well made but a real fiddle to put up - just like a mini tent with these telescopic poles to insert. Nightmare! The best thing about the NScessity is that once taken out of it's bag it just pings into shape. No hassle erecting anything. And putting it down isn't difficult once you get the hang of it. It's lightweight too with a handy shoulder bag to carry it in.
All in all a brilliant buy for anyone wanting a good quality, robust travel cot. 5 stars.

We spent quite a bit of time seeing which travel cots were available before buying this one. Our four-month old had outgrown his moses basket, so when we last went away in the VW campervan we had to get him something else. We bought this one to last, and he does look small & lost in it at the moment, but he slept really well. The size of it meant a rethink to our sleeping arrangements - we all had to sleep in the awning, but this wasn't a problem. Edward slept safely protected from the sun & wind while we packed up the awning at the end of the holiday. Clear instructions. With a bit of practice, easy to disassemble too.

Superb easy to use bed
I bought this specifically to use as a day time travel bed. It is fantastic, so easy to set up and I like the fact when it's zipped up my son can't get out. Read more

Perfect for travelling
The main reasons for choosing this over a standard travel cot were that it is substantially less bulky, very light weight and ridiculously easy to put up and pack away. Read more

How to make this great product PERFECT
Got this cot to use as a daytime cot for my baby as we co-sleep and the bed isn't safe for him to be in if I'm not in with him. It's very easy to set up and inflate the mattress. Read more

Great item
Really like this, we bought for traveling but meanwhile he uses it for all naps in his room (as main cot is in our room for now) and he took to it straightaway. Read more

The travel cot you DO NOT want to travel with
Be very wary - this is complciated to take down and if one of the struts is misaligned, it will never ever go back into its bag and you will no longer have a 'travel' cot. Read more
