What you should pay particular attention to in order to find the best bassinet, we explain to you in our purchase advice on the bassinet comparison 2019/2020.

1. What is a bassinet?

Other important baby and children’s items

A bassinet, often referred to as a bed or bassinet, has existed similarly to its present form since around the 19th century. It is also considered the forerunner of today’s pram models. If you buy a bassinet set (e.g. a Waldin bassinet or a Leipold bassinet) today, little has changed in the bassinet design compared to earlier times. The trend here is still nostalgic. Regardless of whether your favorite is an Alvi Birthe bassinet or a Roba bassinet, most of the designs are made from natural wood. Solid beech or pine wood is often found here. The bassinet basket usually consists of a wicker. The small size, the low height of the bed edge and the oval shape without many edges distinguish this product from a normal children’s bed. An ideal place to sleep for babies in the first weeks of life.

It is best to buy a set of bassinets from the first-born, then you have all the accessories at hand and save subsequent purchases. A bassinet set includes a bassinet nest that promises good upholstery and protection, a bassinet mattress and matching bed linen. The complete bassinet equipment also includes a sky bassinet, which protects the child from light and drafts while sleeping. A swing function helps you fall asleep quickly.

Regardless of whether you prefer white for a bassinet or pink as a color for a bassinet, you will find a wide selection of color choices everywhere. Manufacturers like Roba or Alvi offer a wide range of different offers. But even if you prefer Christiane Wegner for a bassinet or Fabimax for a bassinet, there are hardly any limits to the choice of color.

3. Purchase criteria for bassinets: You have to pay attention to this

If a baby bassinet is suitable, the focus is on comfort. Because only when the child is comfortable will it remain in the car without any problems. But of course this is not the only criterion you should rely on when buying. We explain what else there is to consider in the bassinet comparison 2019/2020.

3.1. The processing

The processing of the car and the safety of your child depend strongly on each other. So that a bassinet is sensible and not dangerous, it should be made stable and have a firm stand. The bassinet basket should not have any sticks or wooden parts that could possibly injure the child. The same also applies to the installed screws.

3.2. The bassinet mattress

There are several types of mattresses that you can get from a bassinet set. We would recommend either a cold foam mattress or a latex coconut mattress. Cold foam mattresses form the softer version and are also easy to care for and breathable. A latex coconut mattress, on the other hand, is much thinner and heavier. But there is good ventilation here too. Unfortunately, we cannot tell you at this point whether your child prefers to sleep softer or harder. With both types of mattresses you are actually always making a good choice. Nevertheless, we would of course always recommend that you take an extra look at the products’ freedom from harmful substances.

Tip: No matter how you choose, don’t leave your baby in one position for too long. Otherwise, the child’s head may become flat.

3.3. The weighing function

A swing or weighing function is not part of every bassinet equipment. However, it makes it easier for the child to fall asleep or to calm down. The room bed design decides whether such a function is available. You will usually find what you are looking for in a 3in1 or 4in1 bassinet, because these models can be converted – often also into a baby cradle.

4. Manufacturers and brands

Whether Alvi Birthe or Roba Stubenbett, the selection is large and there are other manufacturers in addition to the two mentioned that you should know:

Alvi
Leipold
Christiane Wegner
Easy baby
Gesslein
Waldin
Fabimax
Julius Zollner
Roba

5. Cleaning and care

Like other products from the baby world, e.g. B. baby clothes, baby furniture also need regular cleaning and care. You should therefore wash the bassinet cover and the sky bassinet as well as all other fabric parts regularly in the washing machine at approx. 60 ° C. The wood from which the bassinet basket is made can be completely cleaned with an all-purpose cleaner if necessary. Please also note this information if you are using a bassinet, e.g. B. as a bassinet Ebay offer, bought.

6. Questions and answers about the topic of bassinets

6.1. There is a bassinet test from the Stiftung Warentest?

Le >Here you will find the detailed test and help with product identification.

6.2. Cradle or bassinet?

Many ask the question of a bassinet or an extra bed? Others wonder whether a cradle is more suitable for their little one. Here is a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of a bassinet:

Can be used anywhere in the house due to roles
provided with comfortable padding
Baby canopy to shield the child
well suited for the afternoon nap

no substitute for the baby bed

A cradle naturally includes the practical rocking function that helps the baby fall asleep. As a compromise, we would recommend a 3in1 bassinet as the answer to this question, which can also be converted into a cradle.

6.3. Which mattress to choose for a bassinet?

First of all, we would recommend a bassinet mattress that has been safely tested for harmful substances. Otherwise we find a cold foam mattress or a latex coconut mattress in a bassinet useful. The former is rather softer, the second category is thinner and harder. Here you just have to try out what your child likes more.

6.4. What belongs to a bassinet set?

If a bassinet is complete, it usually contains a bassinet mattress, a bassinet nest, a bassinet heaven and the matching bedding. If you want to buy a cheap bassinet, you are at the right address with a complete set, because buying things individually and for the respective dimensions is usually much more expensive.
