✅ 5 reasons to buy
+ The Babyhood Riya cot has 5 different settings: cot, bassinet, a toddler bed, day bed and two-seat sofa (conversion kit included) + The build is made of plantation pine timber, not MDF + The cot is a stylish Scandi-style design + It features a dropside which can be operated with one hand + It uses standard size mattresses which makes it easier to find sheets
❌ 2 reasons NOT to buy
– The cot is fairly pricey compared with other cots available these days – Some parents found their customer service to be questionable
Bottom line:
The Babyhood Riya is a cot whose party trick is to convert into 5 different pieces with the included conversion kit: bassinet, cot, toddler bed, day bed and sofa. It also has a dropside feature which a lot of parents find useful.
For a cot with so many features, it is great value, but for parents looking for ‘just a cot’ it is quite expensive for just that feature.
