7 Stylish Cots on a Budget

January 25, 2009 by Guest Post in Cribs, Cots & Beds, Furniture with 4 Comments

Even though you may be feeling the pinch, it doesn’t mean you can’t snag yourself a stylish cot on a budget. Don’t forget, you can always economise on the cot and jazz up with bedding, accessories, or some fab nursery walls. With cots starting from £28.38, Holly has found 7 stylish cot buys to wow your baby nursery:

Brio Cot LimeBrio Cot

Yet another fabulous product from one of Sweden’s finest, the well priced Brio Cot is ideal for colour fiends. It will give you high quality style and a colour injection if you opt for it in raspberry, yellow, or even lime, plus you can get it in honey wood or ‘ice’ white. It has a 3 position base plus you can get rockers for the legs too.

RRP £99.99 but shop around for great deals. Currently available from Lula Sapphire, Mothercare (online only), and Nubie. Baby Equipment Complete is selling the white and honey for £64.99.

john lewis luca cotJohn Lewis Luca Cot

Classic and chic on a budget, this is made from rubberwood and foil wrapped MDF, with a two-handed drop side and two position base. Available also in white, you can get a matching Luca Changing Unit if you want to go for the ‘set’ look.  £68 at John Lewis.

If blue is your colour and you want to stretch the use of your cot, go straight to Ikea. When they’re bigger, you can remove one of the sides and turn it into a daybed.

£73.40 at Ikea

Ashton cot by mothercareMothercare Ashton Cot

At just £59.99, this is a great budget cot made from pine, but it has the features of a more expensive model, such as a drop side, three position base, and teething rails. It is not in stock at the moment, but it can be pre-ordered for delivery from 27th February.

If you are on a serious budget then this  is for you. A mega bargain, although it’s very plain and simple, this two position cot can easily be made seriously stylish with the addition of some funky bedding and a few carefully chosen toys. It’s the one used in product shots for Cloud Cuckoo Designs bedding.

£28.38 in store and online at Ikea

The really dark ‘Chocolate’ colour makes this a super stylish buy. With a three position base and protective teething rails, it’s made from darkened pine. The fab colour will work well in calm, neutral tones or strike a pose in bright environments.

£79 from Littlewoods

Baby Metro Cot at Mamas and PapasBaby Metro Mamas and Papas Cot

This chic, chunky buy with it’s clean lines is the most expensive of our finds. Beautifully minimalist, it will suit a variety of spaces and styles. Made from solid beech and painted in ivory, and featuring a 3 position base and 2 protective teething rails.

£125 from Mamas and Papas
