The newly launched Bugaboo Stardust is a pop-up portacot, that unfolds in just 1 second. It’s bedtime made easy.

The Bugaboo Stardust is the latest innovation from Bugaboo that combines aerospace technology with design ingenuity.

Bugaboo know how important sleeping is for a child’s development, so they wanted to make nap time easier and more fun for everybody. Their comfortable pop-up portacot with an all-in-one design and built-in mattress, makes bedtime easier than ever, and we can’t wait to give selected MoM Members the chance to trial and review the portacot with their little ones up to 15kg.

The Bugaboo Stardust offers instant comfort for your child, any time of the day or night, thanks to the built-in, multi-layered mattress that’s securely attached to the frame, so that you don’t have to worry about carrying around anything extra.

Designed with your baby’s safety in mind, the Stardust is compliant with the latest safety standards. Your baby’s comfort is guaranteed thanks to the breathable mesh allowing increased airflow, and chemical-free, high-quality fabrics. It’s also super easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth, so no more dealing with stubborn stains.

The Stardust unfolds in 1 second and folds back together again in just 3 seconds, leaving more time for you to get on with your day.

Weighing just 8 kilograms and folding down to just 14 centimetres wide, the Bugaboo Stardust is made to move. It comes with a premium velcro closing bag, so it’s extra easy to pack up. The straps keep it closed even without the bag, so you’re always good to go.

Whether you’re going from room to room, visiting friends and family or going further away – with the fastest unfolding, ultimate comfort and high portability, the Bugaboo Stardust is a genuine game-changer.

  • This is amazing

    What a innovation to the old portacot, struggling with the set up of the old ones running from side to side trying to get the sides to stay up or trying to figure out how to put it down. I can’t wait to get one of these for our camper trailer!!! Looks so easy and pretty!

  • I think I need it

    I am seeing this portacot pop up all over my instagram and these reviews are convincing me even more that I need it. While my daughter is now 2 years old we often travel to visit my mother in another town and this looks like it would definitely come in handy with it slim fold and easiest pop together.

  • Best portacot I've ever used!

    I can't stop raving about this portacot - by far the best design I've ever come across!

  • Practically Perfect!

    Well, we are totally sold on the Stardust. It offered everything it promised - so easy to set up quickly, which is essential with a tired and cranky baby who’s sick of travelling! Rather than being the clunky, time-consuming, space-waster that most portacots are, the Stardust is so easy to travel with, and fits in small spaces with ease. As with all other portacots, it is a long way down to place baby on their back, but one side is lower than the other, which definitely helps. We would definitely recommend it to other parents without hesitation!

  • OBSESSED

    Okay it has been a month and we are still obsessing over this Bugaboo Stardust portacot!

    The features I love about this continue to grow and grow. Yes, the one second set-up will have everyone in love immediately, but there is so much more!

    The mattress is comfortable giving the baby a great sleep. The breathable mesh sidings prevent little limbs from getting stuck in between anything. The compact design allows this to fit in the tightest of spaces. The carry bag provides a convenient way to transport.

    We are literally opening this up everyday because we can't get enough of it!

    10/10 Recommend!!

  • Check out that assembly!

    The Bugaboo Stardust is so quick to assemble and pack away again, you won’t even believe it! One second to open.. a few seconds to close - plus an amazing stylish carry/storage bag to keep it safe when not in use.

    Everyone who’s seen it has raved about it - it’ll be a parenting game changer! Trust this mama of four - you need this in your life. Make sure you pop it on your wish list!

  • Slim-line and Stylish Comfort

    After trying two different styles of portacots, we have finally struck gold with the Bugaboo Stardust!

    It is the perfect combination of safety, slimline design, easy setup and stylish good looks.. When packed, it slides neatly under the bed for storage and will stack beautifully in the back of the car for camping trips. It truly is a one second open, and packing it down is just as easy. Given it's also lightweight, this is by far the best design I've come across for setting up solo. We are heading off on a little getaway and I can't wait to see how our little one sleeps in the Stardust!

  • Amazing

    This is by far the best porta cot I have ever used. It is light, compact, the mattress is soft, It is that slim when packed away I can store it under my daughters cot. I’ve never had a porta cot that is so easy to put up and pack away: we highly recommend this to anyone who is wanting a new porta cot. Being slim it fit next to my bed at the hotel and didn’t have to be in the middle of the room which left lots of floor space. I was impressed at how simple it is for anyone to set up and pack down.

  • So quick and amazing

    This has absolutely changed my life with assembly for portacots! I could never get the poles to click in and this is so easy and automatically sets up so easy. Cant wait for my MIL to try this when she has my kids for a sleep over. Even the mattress is so comfy and soft. My daughter loved it and is perfect for taking on holiday.

  • Wish I had known about this sooner

    Honestly, it took my partner and I a solid half hour to figure out how to unfold and lock in place our porta-cot. It was embarrassing.

    We went to a friends house the other day and she had one of the Bugaboo Stardust cots and seriously, I need one. It's easier to fold and unfold, it's easier to put in the car, it's lighter and just all around better.

  • I must have this Porta cot!

    This cot is ticking all the boxes

    Some portable cots can be so fiddly I love how easy this looks to fold up and down

  • Wow!

    What a portacot!! I’m so convinced I need one for bub #5. I’ve sworn by Bugaboo since the Cameleon with my first, the Donkey for the subsequent kids and now the Turtle for bub due in June. This looks like a fantastic essential for trips to grandparents’ and friends houses! The foldability is where it gets me, I’ve wrestled needlessly with so many different brands of portacot over the years and I’m so done!! The Stardust puts an end to that and I love it!

  • My new favourite portacot

    I absolutely adore this portacot!

    After four kids, we have used our fair share of other styles over the years and the Bugaboo Stardust has won hands-down! It has an amazing one second open BUT it is actually the close that has won me over. No more fiddling around for ages trying to tuck things in and fiddle with mattresses - this took maybe three seconds? Amazing.

    It feels luxurious on the outside and the mattress is very generous for a travel cot. I love that it can fold with the mattress still in place! The travel bag it comes with is stylish as well as functional and I can get it on and off with ease. It’s narrow and lightweight and would fit in even the smallest of cars.

    My two year old fits in it now, and I may have to invest in another so that my three month old gets a turn! It’ll definitely grow with our family over the next few years. Such a fab product!

  • Happy Bub Happy Mum

    I have used the Bugaboo Stardust portacot a few times now and I am continually impressed. I'm still amazed with the quick and easy set up/ pack up but there are more features I have grown to appreciate. The mattress is so comfortable my baby absolutely loves sleeping in the portacot and the compact design allows this to fit in so many spaces. This is a product I highly recommend.

  • WOW! I am speechless at how easy this was

    I turned on my video and filmed myself opening the box and getting this portacot out for the first time. I am speechless at how easy it popped up and was done. The box says 1 minute and I would really question if it was less. Quality frame and beautiful padded mattress. You can see in my video how when i push the mattress there is substance to it and not your usual foam inner. 10 out of 10 - I cant wait to go away now and put this to the test. This is a nice compact portacot so perfect for hotel rooms and even a tent camping.

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

    Reply

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

    Reply

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

    Reply

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

    Reply

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.

    Reply

  • I registered to give it a go. Hopefully it will be fun and easy. I often wonder where these survey figures come from so I now realise sites like this are it.

    Reply

  • I’ve neer been on Purkle yet. Although I have nothing against having your say and sharing your thoughts, advice and opinions there is one thing that I hate and that is surveys ! Quite often the available answers to chose from do not resemble my thought and you end up chosing the answer that comes closest to your ideas, but is not really it.

    Reply

  • Some of these surveys can’t be done on your phone and they can be quite repetitive. I earn $20 every few months and these days, every little bit helps with the cost of living

    Reply

  • I do the occasional survey for some extra money or when I want to treat myself to something a little special. I actually saved my survey fly buys dollars and treated myself to a Kitchen Aid mixer. It was worth all the time doing the surveys as it allows me to make lunch snacks so much quicker

    Reply

  • I love doing surveys but I do find they time out a lot after you have spent time doing them. It is a great little way to make some extra cash on the side. You need to have the time to do these regularly and working full time I don’t these days but still love to earn a few dollars when I can.
