A cot isn’t just about looking good in the nursery. What really matters is the right sleeping surface, a sturdy construction, and a design that suits your child’s age as well as your living situation. If you focus only on design, accessories or a lengthy product description, you can easily overlook important details.
A set that includes a mattress, cot bumper, canopy, bedding or castors may seem convenient. However, you should always check whether all the components actually suit your intended use. The exact mattress size is especially important. A mattress for a cot measuring 60 x 120 cm must not be replaced with a smaller or larger model.
A height-adjustable cot can make it easier to align with your bed. However, the advertised height ranges are not the same for every cot. With a bedside crib, you also need to check whether the height of your mattress, the bed frame edge and the attachment options are compatible.
A bed guard can be useful for a toddler bed, but it isn’t suitable for every sleeping situation. What matters is the type of fitting, the mattress height, the distance from the bed edge and the age recommendation. A foldable bed guard should only be used if it is compatible with the specific bed and has been correctly fitted.
Common sizes are cot 60 x 120 cm and cot 45 x 90 cm. The smaller sleeping surface is often suitable for compact bedside cribs or cradles. A 60 x 120 cm cot offers more space and, depending on the design, can be used longer as a cot or toddler bed.
Please pay attention to the following points:
With a bedside crib, the height range is a practical factor, but not the only one to consider. Check whether the stated height matches the top edge of your mattress. The attachment to your bed is equally important. Depending on the model, there are specifications for the maximum thickness of the bed frame or the position of the attachment strap.
With the roba cot measuring 60 x 120 cm, the height can be adjusted in six levels from 22 to 42 cm according to the product information. The attachment is designed for a side bed frame with a maximum thickness of 4.5 cm. With the roba model measuring 45 x 90 cm, the height adjustment starts at 42.5 cm according to the product information and also includes six levels.
A standard reference should always be read in the context of the specific product type. For the first roba model, a construction according to EN 716-1:2017 + AC:2019 and an eph certification are stated. The second roba model is designed according to EN 1130:2019 according to the product description. These details refer to the respective product data and do not replace checking the assembly.

That depends on the construction and the manufacturer’s instructions. A cot with a suitable mattress and closed sides can be intended for use from birth. With a bedside crib, the attachment to the parents’ bed must be carried out correctly. The respective age and weight recommendation for the model is decisive.
A 60 x 120 cm cot can, depending on the design, be used as a cot and later as a toddler bed. Convertible models are not automatically suitable for every child for the same length of time. Regularly check the condition, weight limit, bars and connections. When changing to an open bed, the child should meet the required conditions.
A bed guard can be useful when a toddler moves to an open bed. Before buying, the bed frame, slatted base and mattress height must match the product dimensions. The guard is not a substitute for checking the fitting: fastenings should be checked before each use and regularly afterwards.
