What is it?

The Shnuggle Air is suitable for newborns and can take a maximum weight of 9kg, making it suitable for most babies of up to about six months in age. When in bedside crib mode, it isn’t suitable for children who can sit or kneel or pull themselves up.

You can attach it to your bed using the supplied straps, and choose from seven height options, depending on the height of your bed. Or you can use it as a standalone crib.

When your baby outgrows the crib, you can convert it into a full-sized cot (120 x 60cm) using the manufacturer’s cot conversion kit, which you’ll have to buy separately.

The crib measures 83.5 x 94.8 x 51.7cm (H x L x W) and weighs 13.2kg. It doesn’t have a removable bassinet.

It comes with a reversible mattress that has a polyester filling.

How we test bedside cribs

9 Oct 2023

Build quality

How we test build quality

We assess whether all the component parts and the assembled crib feel well constructed and sturdy.

Ease of assembly

How we test ease of assembly

We check whether the crib can be put together by one person, or whether it’s a two-person job. We also want to ensure it’s not possible to assemble the crib incorrectly, and that instructions and parts are clearly marked so you can put the crib together correctly.

Ease of placing a child into the crib

How we test ease of placing a child into the crib

We check how easy and quiet it is to raise and lower the drop side so you won’t disturb your sleeping baby.

Ease of removing a child from the crib

How we test ease of removing a child from the crib

Often you’ll be picking your baby up in the middle of the night, so it’s important that this is easy to do.

Ease of adjusting the height of the crib

How we test ease of adjusting the height of the crib

As bedside cribs are designed to be positioned next to your bed, we look at how many height options there are to tailor it to your bed height and how easy it is to alter.

Ease of disassembling the crib

How we test ease of disassembling the crib

We assess how straightforward the crib is to disassemble, which is a helpful feature if you’re taking the crib on trips with you.

Convenience of the mattress

How we test convenience of the mattress

If the crib mattress comes with a removable cover, we assess how easy it is to remove/refit. We also check how well the cover fares after several washes and see if there’s any fabric shrinkage or bobbling.
