Esna Cotbed

The BubsNest Verdict

The Esna Cotbed and Luxury Hybrid Twin Cotbed Mattress receives a mixed response from UK parents. Some appreciate its dual-firmness design, natural materials, and longevity claims. However, many warn the mattress may not fit standard cotbed sizes, with Mamas & Papas cotbeds requiring a specific 69x139cm size. Parents also report quality problems like shrinking covers and broken zipper pulls. Overall, it seems best suited for those specifically needing the 69x139cm size, while others may find better value and fit with alternative options.

Mixed

The Esna Cotbed and Luxury Hybrid Twin Cotbed Mattress receives a mixed response from UK parents. Some appreciate its dual-firmness design, natural materials, and longevity claims. However, many warn the mattress may not fit standard cotbed sizes, with Mamas & Papas cotbeds requiring a specific 69x139cm size. Parents also report quality problems like shrinking covers and broken zipper pulls. Overall, it seems best suited for those specifically needing the 69x139cm size, while others may find better value and fit with alternative options.

What parents love

Dual-firmness designThe mattress has a firmer side for infants and a softer side for toddlers, allowing it to grow with the child.
Natural materialsThe mattress is made with natural fibres like coir and treated with anti-allergy properties, appealing to parents seeking eco-friendly and hypoallergenic options.
Longevity claimsMamas & Papas state the mattress can last up to age 5, providing good value for money.

Worth knowing

Sizing issuesMany parents warn the mattress only fits Mamas & Papas cotbeds, which use a non-standard 69x139cm size, rather than the more common 70x140cm.
Quality concernsSome report issues like the cover shrinking after washing and the zipper pull breaking off, raising doubts about the mattress's durability.
PriceAt around £200, the mattress is seen as quite expensive compared to other options on the market.

Best for

  • Parents with Mamas & Papas cotbeds who need the 69x139cm size

May not suit

  • Parents looking for a standard 70x140cm cotbed mattress
  • Those concerned about quality and durability issues

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Carefully measure your cotbed to ensure the 69x139cm size will fit, as this is not a standard mattress dimension.

Shopping Tip

Consider alternative brands and sizes if you want more flexibility or a lower price point.

Getting the Most Out of It

Rotate and flip the mattress regularly to promote even wear and longevity.
