Features of Baby Cot that You Must Know

Buying the most expensive from the most popular designer is not very practical even if the parents can easily afford it. The main problem is that high-end designers will not prioritize the baby's safety and security so that the baby cot will be aesthetically pleasing. Therefore below are some guidelines on buying a more practical and reasonably priced baby cot.

The first important thing that the parent will have to do is have a preliminary research about the safety standards being required for the manufacture of baby cots. The main objective of buying a baby cot is make the baby secure and comfortable. This includes making sure that the baby cot is sturdily constructed using good quality wood and have quality supports.

It is best to look for any broken parts or sharp protruding objects in order to prevent injury to your baby. The reason for this is that the baby can accidentally harm himself or herself while you are doing household chores in another part of the house.

The cot bed with a wider and longer size is considered a good investment since this can be converted on a later date to a toddler bed. This is an advantage for the parents since they will not have to buy another bed when the child is already a toddler before buying another one in two or three years.

The cot bed with drop sides and adjustable bases will be good for parents that are suffering from a bad back. The sides can be dropped when getting or placing the baby back in the cot bed.

A good feature to buy after market or during the purchase of the baby cot is the teething rail. The advantage of having a teething rail is that the baby will not hurt himself or herself when he or she attempts to chew the wood portions of the baby cot.

The cot bed must be bought with an appropriate sized cot bed mattress. The reason is that the cot bed mattress must not have a gap between the sides of the bed cot by more than an inch. This is because having a gap of more than one inch will increase the chances of the baby getting stuck between the gaps and increased stress for the baby. 

The cot bed mattress must not be too soft since it can easily suffocate the baby. One way to check for this is to press your hand against the baby cot bed mattress. If the handprint is easily retained then look for another mattress since the tested mattress it is too soft.

A good tip to know is to do some preliminary research on the baby cot bed before buying one. This is because some parents will give either a positive or negative feedback regarding the safety and comfort of the baby cot bed. It is also best to look at competing companies to look for a better price since there are a lot of models, designs and brands of nursery furniture that you can choose from.
