If you have little ones then you will know how much stuff you need to pack in the car for just a weekend, and how much space it all takes up!! Well a while ago, I bought a travel cot that was suppose to be better then ordinary travel cots, and takes up a third of the space, and guess what, it was true.
This travel cot comes in its own bag, and also comes with the pump that you need to inflate the cot and when packing it away will deflate the cot enough for you to fold it up and put it back into the bag. Also with the cot and pump, you will get the instructions on how to use it, and a puncuture repair kit and two thin straws that also help to deflate the cot. There is also a sheet that you attach to the base of the cot before you completely inflate the walls. This travel cot can come in two colours, blue and pink. It is made of a durable pvc which is non-toxic, and also very easy to clean with warm soapy water. One of the walls has a mesh side so that you can still see your little one easily, and the base is patented so that it actually increases air flow around your little one every time they move. During the day, you can use the travel cot as a play pen, or throw the plastic balls in and you have yourself a ball pool.
When going away I found that the this travel cot took up a third of the space that the ordinary travel cot did, and I took this travel cot all the way to Florida and still had plenty of luggage allowance.
The down side is it takes a little longer to put up, and to pack away, and it takes a couple of times to fold it down small enough to pack into it's bag, untill you are use to how it folds down (all I can say on that one, is just make a mental note as to how it was folded up as you unfold it)
Another plus factor is that because it comes with it's own pump you have a pump for inflating that paddling pool in the summer with out having to do a ten minute leg work out, and also waiting for-ever and a day for the pool to deflate, as you can use the same pump.
In all if you have children and you are looking to save space, then this will be your answer.
