We bought this one to replace our old graco travel cot which was fine but got a bit dirty. I have had five children of my own and use this for my constant supply of grandchildren. This one was bought on offer from argos at half the RRP, around £50 and we found it a great replacement for the more basic graco travel cot. this one features a inner cot which raises the base so that you can see a smaller baby sleeping. it has a toy moble, which we never used and a changing station which lays over the cot to change at waist height, which we never used. The light and sound and vibrating feature is great and the batteries last for ages. It is a little tricky to get the top bassinet fitted and unfitted but it loosens a little each time you use it. The biggest problem I have with these travel cots is that they are so hard to clean. If you use them as a playpen they get grubby after a while and none of the covers are removeable. Again I have to throw away and replace the cot because It is hard to clean. Come on Graco, how hard can it be to make a few adjustments and make the covers removable

You’d think anything to do with babies would be easy to clean, a big flaw…

We found the answer was to buy travel cot sheets, so they ould be washed. The mesh sides and the mattres itself cleans easily with a sponge and soapy water, though like I said, mattress is best kept from getting grubby with teh aid of travel cot sheets, which we found at Mothercare. I agree that it would be nice if we could actually take the boards out and wash the mattress cover though!
