If you plan on flying with baby, you need an infant travel bed that will either go inside your luggage or be lightweight and simple to carry.
Should you be heading to an exotic destination or simply down the road to nana's, its reassuring to know that with a pop up bubble infant travel bed, baby will be comfy AND be protected from creepy crawlies.
So what's the difference to the pop up vs the pop up bubble you may ask?
The bubble is just that - an enclosed area that keeps baby safe from creepy crawlies - as opposed to a simple exposed light weight moses basket.
As with the pop up travel cots, there are also a few different brands of bubble pop up travel cot options available.
√ Ease of assembly/put away Very simple to pop up - but they can be very fiddly to fold back into themselves.
√ Age range consideration (infant, rolling baby, crawling, cruising, mobile) Only suitable for newborns and infants up to approx 18months.
√ Comfort There is too little padding in the base - need to put an extra blanket underneath the cot to give baby enough comfort.
√ Quality/value for money Good product if you are taking your baby on holiday to place with mosquitos.
PROS - Very light weight infant cot
