    what cot do you have ?

    i ordered my (now 11 wk old) babies cot back in february and it's still not here. they had problems with the paint and now when it's finally fixed the dropside is buggered and going to be another 6 weeks away. the cot is Bootiq brand and the babies shop have said they've never had a problem with this company before.
    DS is currently sleeping in the pram bassinett but he'll be 3 months old in a cpl of weeks and i was hoping to have a cot by then.
    i'm so angry with this whole situation but more so that i've never recieved an apology at all, and the baby shop has just kinda brushed it off and said we're welcome to wait for it or come choose another cot.
    anyway just getting so fed up with waiting i'm going to buy another cot. i'll be looking around next week but was wondering in the meantime what cot do you have and would you recommend it....?
    also does anyone have a cot by bootiq and are they any good...?

    We have the Kingparrot Ulur cot. It is made by Boori so is quality without the Boori price tag.

    I love it. I even assembled it myslef without ay problems

    How frustrating for you! I hope they pick up their game soon.

    We got our cot from the local markets for $50!! DP sanded it back and re-painted it and its shmick! We looked around for a while to find the right one as I wanted drop-side and 2 levels. I wanted to only have 'the best' when I was pregnant but I know now you definately dont have to pay heaps to have that.
    I would definately write a letter to the shop once you have your cot and let them know how dissapointed you are in their service, will hopefully make you feel a bit better

    We got DD's cot at Target and haven't had a problem with it. Plus we got it on a half price sale so we got a bargain on a great cot. It's still going strong and will be used for this bubba.

    We've got the Boori Classic cot. We bought the whole Boori nursery set to match and love it. It's quality and looks gorgeous. I can't wait to see little Tarko in our beautiful nursery.

    I hope you get something sorted hon. That is terrible service and I'd be well and truly peeved if I was you too!

    Hey I am having the same problem with Bootiq! I posted a few days ago under the "what to do" thread.

    I have my cot which is fine, but am still waiting on the change table. I ordered the package months ago... and was told this week that the change table now wont be here till Sept (thats not guarenteed either...by the way) Which means all up a five month wait on a damn change table.

    I wasnt sure if it was the baby stores problem or Bootiq so I called Bootiq yesterday and they said they have no stock across the board pretty much sold out everywhere, and they are having problems getting stock into the country. They really didnt seem to care to much at all.

    The baby store I am going through has been ok about it, and said they would order me something else.. but the whole idea was to have a matching package.. thats why I brought it! I cant return the cot as its assembled and I have already disposed all the packaging!!! Its so annoying!
