    Default Shanticot , anyone got one ?

    Saw the add in childcare mag and really like the look of them , I was also very surprised at price as they cost no more than a decent buggy so price wise they're ok
    My main concern would be that how would you put 2 crying babies down together as surely they woul disturb each other

    Just after some reviews really

    Oh wow I have never seen anything quite like that, thanks for sharing.
    Hopefully someone does own one so they can tell me if they are a good thing to have, it looks as if it would save space anyway rather than having two cots or toddler beds.

    Still take up a lot of room when you don't have any sleepers though, good for family use I think but too big for me for work.

    They are lovely but a stupid amount of money when you compare to the cost of 2 travel cots. Mine would disturb eachother so I like to put their cots up in seperate rooms so they can nap as long as they need

    Fortunately I have a spare room down stairs so they wouldn't be in the way

    Same here. They look good in theory but why don't you try putting two travel cots in the same room and see if the babies disturb each other ?

    They may work for you.

    Could try that as I'm wouldn't be looking to by one until the next tax year anyway so gives me plenty of time to think
