7.8

Solid Choice

The Obaby Maya Cot Bed is a well-regarded option that offers a clean, modern look and easy setup. Parents appreciate its adjustable mattress base and ability to convert to a toddler bed. While some find it smaller than typical cot beds, most feel it provides excellent value and longevity. It seems best suited for nurseries with limited space where a compact yet sturdy cot is needed.

What parents love

Stylish DesignParents love the Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic of the Maya, noting it complements a wide range of nursery decors.
Easy AssemblyAssembly is quick and straightforward, with clear instructions and tools provided, making it accessible even for DIY novices.
Sturdy ConstructionThe cot bed is praised for its robust, durable build that feels secure and safe as babies become more mobile.

Worth knowing

Smaller SizeSome find the Maya to be more compact than standard cot beds, which may be an issue for taller babies or parents who prefer more spacious sleeping areas.
No Mattress IncludedThe cot bed does not come with a mattress, requiring an additional purchase to complete the setup.
Storing ExtrasA few parents note that finding storage space for the extra side rail when using the Maya as a toddler bed can be a minor inconvenience.

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Measure your nursery space carefully to ensure the Maya's compact size will work for your needs.

Shopping Tip

Consider purchasing the Obaby Maya 3-piece furniture set to get the cot bed, dresser, and wardrobe as a coordinated package.

Getting the Most Out of It

Take advantage of the adjustable mattress base to lower it as your child grows taller, reducing the need to bend down.

Safety Note

Always use the included safety rail when converting the cot to a toddler bed to prevent falls.
