Suitable from birth, the Chicco Next2me Go is the smart co-sleeping solution with an instant folding system that allows the crib to fold and be set up in just 3 seconds! Do not use the product if the mattress of the parents’ bed has a height of less than 49 cm or more than 64 cm. The Chicco Next2Me Air the latest addition to the award-winning Chicco Next2Me collection, promoting enhanced airflow and allowing little ones to sleep comfortably next to their parents all night long.

Chicco Next2Me Magic is the most innovative side sleeping solution on the market. Designed with a host of exciting and innovative new features, including a one-handed sliding side panel, which makes it easier than ever to reach little one during the night. I would buy this over other cribs as it is so well-designed for night feeds. Being able to stay in bed to breastfeed, without getting up constantly, reduces stress and time awake, which makes everything more manageable.

Which is the best Next2Me crib?

The Next2Me Magic is equally as versatile as the original Next2Me. This crib comes with a travel bag included and can be easily dismantled to take with you on your travels. This crib features 4 wheels on the base for easier transportation and also boasts a 4 level tilt-function to ease symptoms of reflux or congestion in your little one. If I could change anything, it would be the cords that attach it to the bed as I did find that they lose their tightness after a while. Otherwise I love it!

Do not use the product with beds having frames protruding from the mattress more than 21 cm. The upper surface of the frame must not be higher than 41 cm. The Dream also features a partition which can be adjusted at will, like that of the Next2Me Magic. This drop side also sports a one-handed opening system, making getting to baby bleary-eyed in the middle of the night a breeze. With two mesh sides for optimal airflow, the crib is kept well aerated ensuring your baby's comfort. This also enables you to keep an eye on your snoozing little one, even when the side is up. The Next2Me Air is all about breathability, with all 4 sides of the crib designed with wide netted material to ensure optimal ventilation to keep baby comfortable all night long. Another bonus of having all mesh sides is that you can see baby from every angle, so no matter where you are you can always keep an eye on your little one.The new Chicco Next 2 Me Dream has everything that the original model has, plus additional features which make it stand out from the crowd. The 11 adjustable heights mean that it can fit onto any bed, and the Next2me Dream can also be used stand-alone and as a travel cot, with carry bag included. You may have heard the bad press about another brand of co-sleeping cot. It was determined in the case in question that the issue arose due to misuse. I suspect this updated feature is to maximise Next to Me crib safety, and remove the possibility of using the cot in a way which could be dangerous. For added comfort, the Next2Me has 6 adjustable height positions to help find the optimum position for your baby whilst at the same time adjusted to any type of bed. The Next2Me can also be tilted to help support reflux and congestion.

Yes, it is very easy to set up, I did it in a matter of minutes without the instruction manual as it was very intuitive. I love the elegance of the design and the colour goes with everything. When not in use, it is practically folded down and stored, and the adjustable height on the legs makes it easy to attach to all kinds of beds. When the product is fastened to the bed, there must be no gaps between the lowered side of the crib and the mattress of the parents’ bed.It is advised that you keep baby in your room until they reach 6 months old to prevent SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) and some parents choose to co-sleep to keep an even closer watch over their precious little one. However, co-sleeping in itself can cause SIDS if practised incorrectly. The Chicco Next2Me cribs completely negate this issue, offering baby a safe space to sleep independently, right next to Mum and Dad. In the end I enquired with the PR and discovered that this bar is not intended to be removed as with previous models. The carry bag is perhaps not as good quality as the rest of the product, meaning it won’t last too long. But I would not change anything about the crib itself, it’s fabulous! Tested by mum Kate Douglas-Dala for the Mother & Baby awards 2018: Chicco Next2Me Dream is the side-sleeping crib that features a one handed side panel that can be easily opened during the night, allowing parents to reach little one for night feeds and cuddles.
