Parents preparing their child's room don't know how difficult it can be to make choices. Indeed, there are many possibilities for furnishing this room and this is especially true when it comes to baby cots. Today, you can opt for a classic slatted baby cot of course, but you can also turn to other more practical solutions like the combination baby cot for example.

What is a combination baby cot?

What we call a combination baby cot is a baby cot combined with other furniture to form a 2-in-1 baby furniture. For example, you can find a baby combination cot with a slatted cot, but also a changing table or a chest of drawers, all nested in a way that takes up as little space as possible and promotes practical daily use.

The combination baby cot is also a clever solution, which can also prove to be evolving. Indeed, some furniture can be transformed as the child grows and evolves. A combination baby cot with a slatted baby cot, changing table and storage chest can become a child's bed with a bedside table for example. We can then speak of an evolving combination baby cot.

Regarding materials, this type of furniture is most often a natural wood baby cot. If it's an evolving combination baby cot, wood is all the more suitable as it's durable over time. Thus, the furniture will retain its quality and solidity, even over the years and transformations.

What are its advantages? Why choose it over a classic baby cot?

If the combination baby cot is experiencing the success it has today, it's because it offers many advantages. First of all, it's a multifunctional piece of furniture since, depending on the elements added, you can enjoy a cot for the baby of course, but also storage or even a changing table for example. It's an excellent way to save space in the baby's room and have everything you need within reach.

Moreover, it's an economical piece of furniture. Indeed, it allows you to limit expenses for buying storage elements, but also for the future purchase of a toddler bed for example if it's an evolving combination cot. Parents with a limited budget will therefore have every interest in opting for an all-in-one piece of furniture to limit expenses.

The space saving in the baby's room is also of course to be taken into account. With a well-designed combination baby cot, you can truly save space in the room, which allows for example to add additional storage or create a play area.

How to choose it?

The choice of a combination baby cot can be made according to several criteria. First of all, we recommend opting for sturdy materials like wood which will be durable over time. If you want to choose an ecological solution, you can opt for PEFC certified furniture, which means that the wood used for its manufacture is from eco-managed forests. Then, we recommend favouring a combination baby cot with water-based paint or low formaldehyde content to limit the child's exposure to volatile organic compounds.

The style of the furniture will of course be important in order to opt for a combination baby cot that corresponds to your desires and the style you want to give to the room. Finally, price is also an important criterion so that the chosen furniture corresponds to your budget. Keep in mind that by opting for an evolving combination baby cot, you won't need to buy another bed for your child before the age of 6.
