Know the Difference Between Cots & Camp Cots
Think of a camp cot and travel cot as a convenient travel companion, while a wooden cot is a permanent sleeping space with correct back support needed for growing spines. A long-term investment in your baby’s well-being. Having both options allows you flexibility while ensuring your baby always has a comfortable place to sleep.
There are several aspects of each type of cot that you need to know. Both can be used in specific environments
For everyday use there is no better baby bed solution than wooden cots, they provide several benefits that even the best camp cots cannot compete with. Function, form, and comfort are some of the benefits provided by wooden cots that cannot be understated.
You should consider a wooden cot for the following reasons.
- Comfort: Wooden cots have supportive bases, thicker mattresses, more durable material, and many varied designs. Many cots can be transformed into small beds later in your baby’s life, helping to provide a safe space through their early toddler years.
- Durability: The cot bed design should always be considered one of the most durable, with strong wood, varied material options, and easy to repair sections. Many wooden cots are used for several different children, even being handed down to other members of the family.
- Safety: Wooden cots are some of the safest cots you can find, not just because they are durable. Dream furniture is proud to confirm that we comply with international safety standards so that we can help protect your precious bundle assisting parents to enjoy peaceful nights rest too. Wooden cots are some of the safest spaces you can leave your baby during their naps or while preparing for the day.
Camp cots have long been one of the mainstays in many parents’ bag of tricks. Choosing the right camp cot can save hours of stress and frustration, keeping everything convenient and stress free should be an ease, not a chore.
When choosing a camping cot, remember where you will be using it.
- Short Trips: Visiting family, seeing friends, or even work trips are all where camping cots are made to shine. The ease of setting up a camping cot, along with the ease of storage, means you can be assured there will always be a spot for the baby.
- Camping Adventures: As the name would suggest, camping cots were made for camping. Small enough to be packed into a corner, while easy enough to set up and ensure the baby has a spot in the camp for themselves.
- Occasional Use: While a regular cot is the perfect baby bed at home for your bundle of joy, it can be bothersome to use, especially when the bedrooms are apart from your living space. Camp cots are perfect for temporary use around your own house, allowing you to keep an eye on them wherever you are in the house.
- Space Saving: Sometimes space in the house can be a big issue, especially for young families that are still growing. Camping cots are perfect for those looking to save some space, folding away into a corner when not needed without taking up any walking space.
