The Chicco Next2Me Armonia is a thoughtful, stylish, and deeply practical bedside crib that brings new meaning to the phrase “sleeping side by side.” Designed with the emotional highs and bleary-eyed challenges of early parenthood in mind, this latest addition to Chicco’s trusted Next2Me range beautifully bridges the gap between comfort and convenience.

From first glance, the Armonia stands out with its calming, Scandinavian-inspired design – think soft neutral fabrics and wood-effect legs that elevate it from a basic baby product to an elegant piece of nursery furniture. But it’s not all about looks. Functionality shines through in every detail, starting with the secure bedside attachment that makes nighttime feeds and cuddles simpler and safer. With 11 adjustable height settings, it fits seamlessly alongside most adult beds – even those with under-bed storage.

One of the standout features is the smart motion sensor night light, which softly illuminates as you approach – perfect for quiet check-ins without disturbing your sleeping baby. Add to that breathable mesh sides for airflow, smooth-glide wheels for mobility, and handy storage pockets for essentials, and you’ve got a bedside crib that’s built to support parents, not stress them out.

The removable covers are easy to clean (a must for real life with a newborn), and the three-year guarantee – one year standard, two more with online registration – speaks to the confidence Chicco has in their product quality.

In a market crowded with baby gear, the Armonia distinguishes itself as more than a crib – it’s a nurturing space designed to keep parents and babies close, calm, and connected during those early, emotional months. At £219.99, it offers genuine value with a balance of aesthetic appeal, clever design, and proven safety.

If you’re looking for a bedside crib that’s as comforting as it is chic, the Chicco Next2Me Armonia delivers in every way. Thoughtfully designed and expertly crafted, it’s a reliable partner for the earliest chapter of parenthood.
