Only two complaints are it's side-entry, which can be hard to put a sleeping bubs into (as opposed to the LL which has top-entry), and the zip is quite loud if you're zipping them in. This makes it ideal as a temporary playpen for very young and small children wanting a play in safety. With the travel cot weighing in at under 3kgs, you can take it on a plane as hand luggage (if you put the cot poles in your main luggage) and the cot is also suitable from birth.

The LittleLife 'Arc 2 Travel Cot' has a lightweight geodesic design to give maximum strength and provides a safe and comfortable environment for your little one. No, I was concerned my children would be able to unzip the front panel and escape their sleeping quarters but there’s a very secure safety toggle to the outside of the zip.At first I worried I was forcing the poles - the instructions tell you to use ‘gentle pressure’ which is difficult to gauge.

There is a possibility that a child could put a ground peg into their mouth, but only if they were left lying around.The LittleLife Arc2 travel cot is genuinely one of the best pieces of travel equipment we bought for Rosalin – she first started using it when she was three months old and still happily sleeps in it now. My older two loved sleeping in the “tent” and they have asked for it to be assembled several times at home so that they can play inside with their dolls! Designed to be comfortable and safe for the child the removable foam mattress is washable and has a soft cotton cover. In general, the main issue that we encounter when travelling is that family rooms provide single beds as additional beds. The Littlelife Arc 2 is a compact, portable and lightweight travel cot that's easy to use and a dream to assemble.
