Your hyperactive daughter has slept in this for 3 weeks on our travels. The product is what we expected so far. Easy to assemble and takes less space than similar items.

Our child is 7 months old now - and we love so many things about this traveller - it is lightweight, I feel that she is very safe in it, it looks cool, and can use indoors and outdoors.
However, I agree with so many of the other reviews - two main issues with this:
1) It takes longer to try to get it all in the carry bag than it takes to break it down. The bag should really be bigger - it is quite the ordeal to stuff it all in - that is annoying when we are trying to leave a place.
2)It really is a problem that the vinyl doesn't have a cover - I tried to put a sheet down, but it slides all to one side once she starts moving. The vinyl wakes her up at times when she moves on it - it is loud for her.
Having said that, I am still glad we decided on this item rather than a bulky pack-n-play.
I think if the company could address these two main issues- somehow get a sheet cover that is safe and works well and make a bigger carry bag - then this would be the traveller crib to get.

Not so happy with this travel bed at first, March 8, 2009
By J and A's Mom - See all my reviews
I have twins and decided to try ordering both a PeaPod travel bed with self-inflating mattress and this Phil and Ted's traveller travel cot for my fifteen month old twins that are very tall(outgrowing traditional pack and play/play yard). The PeaPod was much easier to assemble and over half the price, although if you want an open top similar to a crib, pick the Phil and Ted's travel bed - the PeaPod is more like a closed tent.
My kids love the PeaPod so far because I have allowed them to play in it and given them play time in our home to get them more comfortable with it. I could only find one PeaPod color (camo blue, not my favorite at first) that comes with a self-inflating mattress, but the color is nice and dark for sleepy toddlers. I have to admit that I am disappointed with the Phil and Ted traveller because I don't like that the mattress has to be zippered in a nylon sleeve and the expectation is that the baby/toddler sleeps on Nylon by this company. One of the reviews on another site recommended inserting a comforter or blanket in the bottom for the baby/toddler to sleep on. For the money that I paid for this item, shouldn't a form fitted washable child pad of some sort be a part of what I purchased? The PeaPod came with a "sleeping blanket" that is very thin, shaped to the size of the product and washable. I have no idea yet what I am going to put at the bottom of this P&T's travel bed to try to convince my toddlers that it is even close to their own crib! I will update my review if I find a way to make the bottom of the P&T travel bed comfortable and safe for one of the twins.
Update: I did not put the mattress in the sleeve of P&T travel bed as instructed. I just put it inside, and used a matress pad and crib sheets over it from their regular crib. This worked well... Cautionary note - This would probably not be an alternative for babies under 1 year. After using both types of beds for several different vacations, either one will work, but the P&T more closely resembles a smaller, more portable version of a real crib. It is more difficult to put together but it is made to be extremely sturdy. It is also more expensive, but my kids had an easier time adapting to it when we were away from home. If money is a concern, the peapod is an excellent option too (use your matress pad and crib sheets from your home), but you need to convince your kids that it is a great tent to sleep in. If money is no object, no need to convince toddlers of anything, the Phil and Teds travel crib is sturdy, and easier for a child to adapt to when away from home.

We bought this item to replace our old Phil & teds travel cot model - the main feature that we liked was the side zip opening (seems more practical to us for younger babies). It is very sturdy and takes up a little less floor space due to the design. It doesn't pack up quite as compact but still a much better option than the bulky pack n plays out there. We are very pleased.
There a couple negatives - our 2.5 year old son was able to unzip the side opening from the inside (he hasn't slept in a travel crib for at least a year, so it wasn't too much of a bother to us), he was just "testing" it out.
The other downside is zip sleeve opening in the bottom for the mattress. Although very well meaning, I don't like that you are then laying baby directly onto the nylon material, we have always put a normal crib size sheet over the mattress on our old model and will continue to do so with this one despite that feature.
