sorry but we don't like them as the kids keep roling off them and I had to get up in the night to put them back on the beds, and the sleepping bags aren't that good in cold weather. our eldest two now have self infeating mats and vango sleeping bags, sleep the night trough and where warm enough even in early may when we first went away this year.
My little girl is 21 months and has a my first ready bed and she loves it. We keep her in her grobag inside the readybed - I don't think she'd be warm enough without the extra layer - but we haven't needed an extra blanket on top yet. My husband sleeps in with her on a single airbed (she's a daddy's girl - I get the dog!), just so someone's handy if she rolls out of bed, but we haven't really had any trouble at all. I just like it because she has the wee headboard bit, and bolster type edges which are supposed to stop the rolling out problem. I don't know if I'll use one when she's older, but for a step between the travel cot and an airbed and sleeping bag, it seems ideal.
I have 2 adult sized ones from argos for my 5 yr old twins and they're really comfy in them. They didn't wake up during a couple of recent cold nights but they were waring those all in one fleecy pyjamas with feet in.

Hi, we have a double ready bed for the kids - an adult one from Argos. They love it. One son tends to snuggle down the bottom but that suits him???? They really are handy and inflate and deflate really quickly with a battery powered pump. I didn't get on with it myself as I have a bad back and need to keep moving. I have a fold out bed a bit like those chairs you can get. I found that much more suitable for us 'oldies'. Bev.
My 2 yr old loves his 'My First Ready Bed' (not to be confused with the 'Ready Bed' which is for older children). He first started using it at 15 months and out of the 30+ nights that he's slept on it this year - he's only rolled out once, and that was because we were on a bit of a slope! It's not exactly far to the ground anyway - and he didn't even wake up!
The 'sleeping bag' helps to keep them in too as one side is stitched all the way down. We camped during the heatwave and he slept in just a vest and nappy under the thin 'sleeping bag' cover. At Easter when it reached below freezing he was in a babygro, fleece sleepsuit and gelert junior sleeping bag. We are going away this weekend and he will be fine in his pj's and one blanket.
It will last him for another couple of years yet!
