Hi icklemoi I've just ordered one, my friend had one and loved it also my arm was broke trying to comfort my son through the bars of the cot so even if it's only for 6 months or so to me it's going to be worth it, it won't be for everyone but I'm hoping for us it'll be worth it, I've also ordered the to me tippee perfect prep, I've a few friends who have sworn by it
