An adjustable baby cot 70 x 140 cm should last from birth through to toddlerhood and ideally convert into a junior bed later on. Many models on the market look similar, but they differ significantly in adjustability, what's included in the box, and conversion options. If you focus only on design or a low price, you might end up buying a cot that no longer suits your child's developmental stage after just a few months.
With a height-adjustable children's bed, the mattress height can be adjusted in several stages or only to a limited extent. What matters is how many positions are actually available and whether the slatted frame locks securely into the chosen position. Three clearly defined height levels may be sufficient for use from birth, but they offer less fine-tuning than a stepless solution.
A convertible children's bed is often advertised as "from baby cot to junior bed". So check whether conversion sides or additional parts are included in the delivery or need to be purchased separately. With the roba house bed 70 x 140 cm, for example, separately available conversion parts are intended for use as a junior bed or sofa.
"70 x 140 cm" normally refers to the mattress or sleeping surface, not the external dimensions. For the nursery, you also need to account for the frame, side panels and, if applicable, a roof structure. A house bed can be significantly taller and wider than a classic cot 70 x 140 cm.
Only use a mattress with the dimensions specified by the manufacturer. With a baby cot with slatted frame in size 70 x 140 cm, the mattress must fit snugly; gaps between the mattress and the frame should be avoided. An additional mattress on top of the intended sleeping surface can alter the sleeping height and is only permissible if the manufacturer expressly allows it.
Also check whether the slatted frame is included in the delivery. With the two selected roba models, it is included. However, a mattress is not automatically part of the set with these products.
For use from birth, a raised position is practical for putting the baby down. As soon as the child can sit up or tries to climb out, the sleeping surface must be lowered. The instruction manual for the respective model is decisive here.
According to the product details, the roba house bed has three height levels. The roba convertible children's bed is also described as having three height-adjustable positions. Both models also have removable entry bars. These may only be removed in accordance with the intended use and the assembly instructions.
Wood, wood-based materials and surfaces should be clearly stated in the product description. An FSC-certified baby cot indicates a corresponding certification for the origin of the wood used; the specific certification should be verifiable in the product documents. The roba house bed is marked as using FSC-certified material.
Equally important are the maximum weight capacity and the age recommendation. According to the product data, the roba house bed can support up to 50 kg and is intended as a baby cot up to around the fifth year of life. Later use as a junior bed or sofa depends on the conversion and the separately available conversion parts. Such information is not a guarantee of a specific service life, but serves as a guide.
Why this product fits the profile: This model combines a 70 x 140 cm sleeping surface with three height positions, three removable entry bars and a described conversion option to a junior bed.
The product data explicitly states the sleeping surface, the three height levels and the conversion option. However, you should still check which conversion parts are actually supplied before purchasing.
70 x 140 cm sleeping surface, slatted frame included and removable entry bars.
Why this product fits the profile: The house bed combines a natural wood look, three height levels and later use as a junior bed or sofa with separately available conversion parts.
The information clearly separates the baby cot from the later conversion. External dimensions of 162.5 x 75 x 143.5 cm are also given, making it easier to plan the space required.
FSC marking, integrated slatted frame and 50 kg maximum weight capacity according to product data.
Why this product fits the profile: This model is interesting for families looking for a low children's bed solution with an open Montessori principle and included textiles. However, it is not height-adjustable and therefore not a direct alternative for use as an adjustable baby cot from birth.
The lack of height adjustment is transparently stated. This allows the bed to be categorised specifically as a later solution for toddlers, rather than assuming a function it doesn't have.
70 x 140 cm sleeping surface, two side guards, slatted frame and bedding included.
We have put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations in force in the EU.
That depends on the construction, weight limit and conversion function. With the selected roba models, use as a baby cot up to around the fifth year of life and later use as a junior bed are specified, depending on the product. The instructions, the child's body weight and motor development remain decisive.
You need a mattress with the exact specified dimensions of 70 x 140 cm. Also check the permitted mattress height so that the protective function of the side panels is maintained. A mattress should fit snugly and must not be raised by additional underlays unless this is intended.
Not every house bed is automatically suitable from birth. What matters is the manufacturer's specification, a sufficiently protected cot construction, an adjustable sleeping height and the correct assembly of the slatted frame. With the selected roba house bed, use from birth is specified; however, the sleeping height must still be adapted to the child's age and development.
