Description
Looking to rent a travel cot? The Phil&Teds Traveller crib weighs a mere 2.6kg and packs down into a yoga-mat sized bag. Fits into most luggage easily.
Suitable from birth to 90cm, no max weight since it’s placed on the ground 🙂 If you are looking to rent a travel cot with a thicker mattress, check out the Baby Bjorn Travel Crib. While it is heavier at 6kg – and larger – it has a foam mattress and is easier to set up.

How does this compare with the Babybjorn Travel Crib?
Why you might prefer the Phil&Teds Travel Cot vs the Babybjorn Travel Cot:
- SIZE:
The Phil&Teds travel cot is definitely more compact and should fit in most luggage.
The Babybjorn would need to be checked in unless you have an extra large luggage. - WEIGHT:
At 2.8kg, the Phil&Teds is half the weight of the Baby Bjorn crib which tips the scale 6kg.
However, compared to normal portable playpens which weigh 10kg and above, both are considered lightweight! - ZIP ACCESS:
For those with bad backs or who nurse babies to sleep, the zip sides makes transferring much easier.
In addition, during the day your baby can use it as a play tent!
Why you might choose the Baby Bjorn Travel Crib vs the Phil & Teds Travel Crib:
- COMFORT:
Unashamed to admit – I have lain on the Babybjorn cot mattress and did not want to get up!
It’s a proper 2-inch thick foam mattress compared to the air-filled self-inflatable mat for the Phil & Teds. However, you may add a blanket beneath the mat.
Nevertheless, the Phil&Teds has many parent fans whose babies slept 12 hours on vacation! - SET UP:
The Babybjorn literally sets up in seconds – just unfold and go – while the Phil&Teds is more like a lego set.
Most parents can set the Phil&Teds up in under 5 minutes, so it’s really what you prioritise!
