Hi all.

Has anyone used the tent-style travel cots, like the Littlelife Arc or Koo-di ones?

I'm thinking of getting one. Think baby would sleep better in a more enclosed space in the tent. Also it could be good for playing outside. I really think that I want a blackout/sunshade option as he normally sleeps in the dark and we are Scottish vampires so can't be exposed to any light at all really.

Ta!

We used one for our daughter, a Littlelife - it was excellent as they pack very small and we could take it abroad and not go over weight limits. We put a towel over ours to make it dark.

We bought it off e-bay and sold it for more than we paid.

We've used the Arc 2 for my daughter's twins while staying over at our house. They have proven to be be very useful, the girls have always felt secure but can see out, so they're not claustrophobic. At 3 years old they can climb out, but I reckon we've got another 6 months or so before they grow out of them.

The Littlelife Arc 2 is very compact and easy to put up. They've been good value for money.
