7.6

Solid Choice

Parents describe the Harwell as a high-quality, solidly built cot bed with an attractive, timeless design. Many appreciate its sturdiness and feel it provides a safe, comfortable sleep environment. However, some caution that its large size and heavy weight can make assembly and manoeuvring difficult, especially in smaller homes. Overall, the Harwell seems best suited for those seeking a durable, heirloom-quality cot that will last for years.

What parents love

Sturdy, solid constructionParents praise the Harwell's thick, solid wood construction, noting it feels very stable and well-built.
Attractive, traditional designReviewers highlight the Harwell's classic, elegant look, describing it as a 'thing of beauty' that will suit traditional nurseries.
Comfortable, supportive mattressThe included pocket sprung mattress is widely praised as being high-quality, plush and supportive.

Worth knowing

Very heavy and bulkySeveral parents note the Harwell's large size and substantial weight make it difficult to assemble and manoeuvre, especially in smaller homes.
Doesn't fit through some doorwaysA few parents report issues getting the cot through narrower modern doorways, requiring disassembly.
Challenging assemblySome found putting the Harwell together more complex than other cots, requiring two people and extra time.

Best for

  • Families with larger nurseries or homes
  • Parents seeking a high-quality, heirloom-style cot bed

May not suit

  • Smaller homes with narrow hallways or doorways
  • Parents who prefer easier assembly

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Carefully measure doorways and hallways to ensure the Harwell will fit through, especially in older homes with smaller entrances.

Getting the Most Out of It

Allow extra time and enlist help for the assembly process, as the Harwell's solid construction makes it more complex to put together.

Safety Note

Check the cot's stability periodically and tighten any loose fittings, given the Harwell's heavy weight.
