I imagine that this may be bought by grandparents like me, all over the land, who don't want to buy again a big hard wooden cot such as they used for their own children. It's tricky to find storage for those bulky old pieces of furniture, plus they too were tryingly awkward to erect, particularly the ones with sliding sides. So this looks like it fits the bill. And so it does, as long as you approach it in a cool calm fashion; a tall order I know as we all may imagine we can ignore the 'destructions' and work it out for ourselves...Although you might need it in a hurry, there really is no alternative to making the cot in the very way they lay out in the pictures.It just won't work if you go off piste - the whole thing becomes an increasingly frustrating exercise. I know because that's what I did. So take as read you have to diligently do as you are told and it will work in a flip. You get the knack of squeezing the joints to collapse or build the cot, they are under the rail padding and you have to feel for them. (This is beginning to sound a bit weird!)The Hauck Dream'n'Play cot is really, really good. It will usefully double up as a playpen too which is a big plus. The cot feels substantial and looks attractive. No one hurts themselves bashing into it, as it is padded and made of a waterproof type material that will be very easy to keep smart. You have to buy a mattress as well - I chose a cossato

Worth 5 stars really, but like all travel cots, the mattress is not protective enough for babies, so you need to pad it with something or buy a pricey mattress, the latter defeating the point of being easily transportable, but this is a super travel cot indeed, with a base mattress that is stronger and softer than most others I've seen. Setting up and refolding it are dead easy too if you follow the simple pictures printed on the underside of the folding mattress. For all those people out there who write reviews about how difficult this is, please note that it is simply a matter of following the correct chronological order of the three steps, then reversing the order for folding it.To assemble: sides up,ends up, middle down.To fold away: Middle up, ends down, sides down.Job done in seconds, without any problem.If you change the order, or try to do all at once, you will waste your time.Also, the folded cot nests neatly into the mattress base (which is folded into a cuboid tube inside the carry bag.One last point, I have read contradicting reviews about mattress dimensions. I can confirm now that the open mattress is 120cm x 60cm. I can also confirm that a mattress a couple of cm longer/wider/shorter/narrower will also fit quite happily - so if you can't find the exact match, then a few cm won't be an issue.Great product ... now to test it on a journey!

I really like this travel cot. It's easy to erect and fold up. There's loads of videos showing you how as the instructions are poor when it comes to folding it up again. The instructions aren't great and the tab in the middle is important!!. I like the fact that it can't simply close by pushing the side sections upwards when erect and they only collapse when you've pulled the tab in the middle and the bars collapse when you press to unlock them.We keep our travel cot erected in the playroom / living room. It's narrow enough so it just fits through a normal width doorway to the kitchen. It's light weight and long enough for a 3 year old child.It's not very wide so your baby can't really play in it.The mattress that comes with it is very thin about 2cm in thickness. I bought a seperate one from a major supermarket website and it fits perfectly. I no longer have to go up stairs to put the baby in her cot. It makes life easier as she's such a light sleeper and rarely sleeps longer than 20 minutes.I have taken it with me when visiting family. It's easy to fit in the car boot (I don't have a large car) and I was happy knowing my baby wouldnt roll and crawl off a normal bed. Overall a fantastic buy.

This only took a few days to be delivered and i am 100% happy with this travel cot.My Daughter has premature 1 yr old twin babies who are crawling and pulling themselves up on furniture.Obviously the babies cannot be unsupervised in our lounge (in case they try climbing sofas) so i brought this travel cot to have downstairs so the babies can be popped in there if my Daughter needs to pop into another room or answer the door.It arrived today and took seconds to open up, plenty of space for the babies to sit and play with toys in, both of them stood up in it and tried shaking the sides as they peered over the top yet this travel cot is well made so will withstand their tugs and pulls.They cansee through the mesh which is great as they dont feel shut away.We are hoping they can have their day time naps in here, there is more than enough space for both of them to lie down but i will need to buy a proper mattress as the one provided really is just a base for the travel cot which is too hard to sleep on, but i feel i have got a bargain here so i do not mind purchasing a new mattress.

Hauck travel cot arrived well packaged and is super easy to put up, took us literally a minute - we took a few more minutes to collapse the travel cot but that was because we didn't read the instructions (they are in picture format and it is so easy to follow, there are only 4/5 pictures and very straight forward). My partner advised the release buttons have a double knuckle so they collapse in the middle and then u squeeze them again for it to completely fold. The size of the travel cot is great and we opted for a Kit for Kids mattress, although it is not a travel cot mattress it fits amazingly and comes highly recommended by our local baby shop.We bought the mattress sheets from Mothercare which fit great!The travel cot comes with a carry sack and it is incredible the size of the travel cot when all folded up, partner advised it is not too heavy to carry either.We would definitely recommend.

Fantastic travel cot. I bought it for my 2.5 year old who still sleeps in a cot at home. I researched for a long time to find one that was big enough and also robust. I've borrowed a Baby Dan from a friend, which is a similar quality and size, but this one is easier to assemble. I also bought the additional suggested mattress, as the one included is very thin. You can bulk it up with towels/duvet if need be (ie. if you're travelling on a plane and don't want to carry too much stuff) but if you're travelling by car, it's definitely worth buying as the mattress is pretty light and comes in a zipped up bag.The only reason I gave the travel cot four stars instead of five is that there is no shoulder strap (the Baby Dan has one)and it's rather heavy to lug around without the additional strap for support. Regardless of this, I can highly recommend this cot.

It took awhile to convince me that I actually need a travel cot. We don’t travel a lot and when we do, I knew that most hotels provide a bed. Then I found this and thought- my daughter will be able to use it for few years and it’s an investment... so I ordered it.It’s fairly heavy, but it’s sooooo compact!!!! I unzipped the carry bag and took out the travelcot. I love that instructions are on the mattress that’s wrapped around the cot. That’s genius as who carries the instructions with them and who memorises them? It literally was so quick and easy I couldn’t believe it’s done!Then looking at the carry bag I thought- no way will it will ever fit back in there.... it totally did!!!I’m only now writing this review,as my daughter finally used it during a long weekend away. She slept really good!Verdict- it’s totally amazing!

First ever travel cot I bought and have no regrets. Bought the pale blue, green and yellow version in June 2010 for our 22 month old who is approx 81cm long. Lots of room. Really easy to put up and down, about 10 seconds, didn't even need to read instructions (there are 2 diagrams on the wrap around base anyway). Just make sure the sides and ends are "locked" in place properly before you put base in. Good solid base which is padded but like all Travel Cots it is a bit hard so we bought a cheap Ikea foam mattress for £19 and it fits perfectly. Really happy with this cot and would definitely recommend!! I was quite surpised at how heavy it is but having said that upon researching travel cots there are even heavier ones than this one weighing in at over 11kg.This Hauck one apparently weighs 9.9kg.

This is primarily used when we stay with grandparents so it hasn't had to do a lot of travelling yet. Our previous travel cot was a shorter one of a different brand, I didn't appreciate at that time that these things come in different lengths. Our son is tall and so we outgrew but this one should last until he is big enough to sleep in a bed. As I had experience setting up our previous one I didn't find assembly an issue, similarly I have no issues folding. As with most things it just takes a bit of practice and you get the hang of it. The actual cot feels good quality, study and our son has no issues sleeping in it on just the base it comes with.If we were using it for longer term sleeping I'd probably invest in the travel mattress.

We bought this cot for our wee girl. Previous reviews had stated that it could be quite difficult to put up, so we took our time trying to assemble it. After many minutes of frustration we came to conclusion that the product was broken. However, we then realised that we had ignored the instructions; when we actually followed them it went up easily. When it is up it's colourful and robust, although you'll need a deccent matress if you child is planning on sleeping in it. So... if you're a renegade who plays by their own rules and won't be bound by society's mores, this is unlikely to be the cot for you. If, however,you are happy following a four-part instruction then it will be up in less than a minute.

The Pros for Hauck Dream & Play travel cot is fairly easy to assemble, guide on under side of Mattress. unwrap Mattress from frame and expand the corners and click the hand rails into place in the middle. To take it down its bit of guess where the release buttons under the material are, but is fairly easy after the first time. Its carry size matches a folded pushchair.Sturdy when assembled and colour scheme ok although the Yellow hand rails may get grubby?Mesh side panels are practical for monitoring playing and sleeping child.Cons, the Mattress is bit on the thin side, thicker travel cot matress's would improve comfort but will not fold into carry case.

I bought this for when my granddaughter comes to stay. I had read reviews, some of which said it was difficult to assemble and dis-assemble, but it was simplicity itself - when unfolded it almost assembles itself and just read the instructions on how to dis-assemble. When assembled it is very strong, rigid, and stable.It is standard cot size so doesn't take up too much room like some that try to double as full size play pens.Not expensive but the quality looks good and no reason to believe it won't be durable.I am glad I bought this item.Repeat: Read the instructions for dis-assembly - don't force it.

It's easy & quick to put up / down and it's fairly compact (as compact as a cot can be) when folded down and into it's bag. Yes as many other reviews mention the mattress is pretty thin, but I'm not really sure what else you can expect from a travel cot which needs to be compact - it's a trade off between comfort and convenience. I think it would be fine for a couple of nights away, and you can always wrap a few blankets around it to be more padded - if you didn't want to buy a new mattress that is. The mesh sides are nice for when we use it as a playpen in the house - so baby can still see me.

Excellent value travel cot. This is a full size model, which is nice and sturdy and comfortably accommodated my 21 month old nephew. It was very easy to put up and pack away, which was a bonus. Having read other reviews I bought an extra mattress to use with it (I went for the mother nurture quad fold which is fairly thin and easy to store) and was glad I did as although the cot base has some padding it could be softer. Having said that, you don't need a very thick mattress overlay to increase comfort for the baby, and ours slept very well in the cot. Would definitely recommend this.

Bought this to put to my 1 year old to sleep at her grandads. She’s so use to sleeping in a cot at home it was always so difficult to put her to sleep in a bouncer at her grandad’s and she has a habit of rolling over so I couldn’t leave her on a bed. This was perfect, I just leave it made up as it gets a bit too heavy to carry around everywhere so I’ve just left this at her grandads... Just remember to pile on loads of blankets at the bottom. Plus the price is really good, I’ve seen so many but they cost a lot more than this one so I’m really glad I made this purchase!
