If the room space is very small, then a transformable baby cot will not “fit” into the interior well, because it will make the room look cluttered. In this case, it is better to choose a bed and a chest of drawers separately and place them in different corners.

Materials for cots

Factories producing children's furniture have a large list of materials that are used in different designs. At the same time, each one gives a different level of quality of manufacture and impact on the child's body.

  1. Wood. The body of newborns is exposed to allergens and external influences. Wood is perfect for such situations, as it is a natural, ecological product with a low content of impurities and hypoallergenic properties. A wooden crib is breathable, which will not limit the delivery of oxygen to the baby. It also has external qualities - a wooden crib looks expensive and stylish if its design is made with high quality. Unpainted oak or cherry is of high quality, they also have high strength and healing properties.
  2. Plastic. The advantage is its low weight, which makes transportation easier. But you should be especially careful when choosing furniture made of such material. Very often, careless manufacturers use toxic additives to the material in order to save money. In the future, such a children's bed will begin to emit harmful substances into the atmosphere, which contribute to the poisoning of the body.
  3. Fiberboard and chipboard. If parents decide to save money, then it is worth choosing chipboard. This material is characterized by low cost combined with good durability. But this option has a significant disadvantage - in order to save money, manufacturers add unnatural materials to the composition, thereby increasing the risk of releasing harmful elements that can adversely affect the health of small children. Therefore, parents need to study the composition of the structure more carefully.
