Find out what our parent testers thought of the Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod.
Tested by a mum Elizabeth Porter for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
This is a very beautifully looking basket, the Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod really does have the wow-factor in the nursery. It is very comfortably-looking and for a Moses basket it is very strong. It does seem quite roomy too so could see it lasting longer than others. It is heavy to carry around and transfer baby from room to room. It is quite expensive for what it is but it is a quality product. Grandma really liked it and suggested it would be a lovely gift to buy to expecting parents.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
The Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod has worked well in our bedroom baby settles quite well, with our stand it is a good height. I feel this is a lot more secure than our own Moses basket but it isn't quite as transportable.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
To make it lighter to transport around the house.

The Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod is a beautiful Moses basket, I like the fact it is pretty but still looks right for a boy. It is very strong for a basket, but I do worry that if it snaps or breaks it could be a bit dangerous. My boy looks comfortable and it fitted our stand so we were able to use it next to the bed. It does take up more room but it has a wow-factor too. The insides are easy to clean which helps and you have a choice of 3 others too.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
It works nicely as a Moses basket in our bedroom and at times I have used elsewhere but is hard to carry up our narrow stairs and heavy with baby in it. I could imagine it would look amazing in a nursery.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
Maybe just make the material it is made with a little less brittle as some areas feel like they could break and would be really sharp.

This Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod does look amazing and really sturdy for a Moses type basket. However for use as a Moses basket in our house it is too big and heavy. We have 3 floors and narrow stairs. My son hasn't settled too well in it and as we do not have a stand it is hard to help sooth him without taking him out. If you have an independent sleeper and want to keep it in the one room then it does have the wow-factor. It is fairly big for a Moses basket so may last longer than some.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
For us not really, it has some hard poking out bits which I worry my toddler may hurt himself on. As we don't have a stand it was easy for him to get at his brother.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
To be more breathable and have an all-in-one including stand package as automatic.

The Clair de Lune Cotton Candy Grey Noah Pod is a very modern take on the traditional Moses basket. It looks quite impressive and is very solid. I like the comfort factor in it and feel it could last a little longer than some Moses baskets due to both the size and build. We have a stand which it fitted on ok, but probably needed a Clair de Lune stand so needs to be added to the cost. It is not the most transportable Moses basket so really more like a static crib.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
It is a comfortable crib and my little one slept well in it.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
More robust material as this feels like it could break.

This is such a beautiful Moses basket, it has the ‘yummy mummy’ factor for certain. Baby looks so cosy and comfortable in it. The design is modern, but nicely padded and ideal for newborns. I like the sturdiness of this basket compared to mine.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
This is so cosy and my bub looks so snuggly and warm in there. I just love watching him sleep.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
Make the insert a little easier to take off and wash.

Absolutely stunning, beautifully made, lovely pastel grey colour and so traditional. It makes any room it's in exquisite. Easy to transport and so sturdy even though made of wicker. Beautiful bedding inside that washes lovely.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
It makes life better because I have the most beautiful Moses in the whole world! It is so comfy and snug for baby as they can just snug inside.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
It's absolutely perfect.
