Tutti Bambini Cozee safety concerns

Just a caution to other mums that might have this product. I have been using this crib for 6 weeks and I have often found my daughter pressed up against the side of the cot, despite starting in the middle. I thought she was just a fidgety baby so would move her back each time I woke up and found her there. The other night I found her pressed up against the side and could not feel her breathing and her cheek was cold. I immediately panicked and thought the worst. She was fine, just sleeping deeply, however I am completely traumatised by what happened and haven't put her in it since. My partner checked the crib and found that if any pressure was put either side of the centre, the crib would tilt to the side and cause her to roll. We even checked with a spirit level to confirm. Googling it found that lots of other people have had similar issues. Since the incident she hasn't been back in it, and we've purchased a Snuzpod which has side supports. Turns out she's not a fidgety baby in her sleep and stays in the middle all night! I have written to the retailer and manufacturer but honestly think that this product should be recalled. I don't want to worry people, however I do want to make others who have the same crib aware of potential safety concerns.

I’ve got it but my baby is very fidgety, I always wake up and make sure he is on the side however after reading this I now know I need to invest into something else! x

I have this and have a sleepyhead thing in the cozee so he can't get to the side he's fab x

Yeah I have safely the same issue!? Yesterday I found her swuished against the side twice!

I have this one too and it never happened with my first, but my 2nd I always find her at the bottom on one side on a diagonal after starting in the middle xx

Hi just found this thread! Did anybody hear back from the company? I have the same problem 😬 x

@Kellie the retailer I bought it from, Argos, were amazing and refunded even though I had had it months. Tutti Bambini on the otherhand were shocking in their support and sent back a generic reply with instructions. They said it was a 'travel crib' so would have moving parts. Since buying the Snuzpod I've had absolutely no issues. Would recommend contacting who you bought it from rather than Tutti Bambini

Unfortunately I bought it second hand but not used if that makes sense so it still cost me quite a bit, very annoying. Am tempted by the snuzpod but I did like the fact the tuttibambini was easy to use if went away.

@Kellie underneath the mattress and the material flaps there is 2 adjustable straps in each side. Tighten them as much as you can and it’ll stop the tilting xx

@Morgan oh amazing thanks for the tip will give it a go in the morning x

I have the same issue, I just assumed it was due to the straps being pulled tight?

I still haven't managed to sort mine, ended up putting a towel underneath the mattress which seems to have worked.
