A good cot is one that will last until your child is about four years old. However, certain models offer the possibility of purchasing expansion packs which extend their use up to five or even 10 years.

When it comes to the top cot beds that we have reviewed, the Coxley is a great choice. It ticks all the right boxes. It's well-made, simple to put together and looks stunning in any nursery. However, it is a little more expensive than the other options on our list and will require a standard mattress (which you'll need to purchase separately). It's still worth checking this out, though, as we think it's well worth the money for a long-lasting design that appears extremely durable.

The sleigh-style design looks particularly striking and will make your baby the center of attention in any room! You can save money by buying accessories like teething rails and a drawer.
