Roanna loved the cotbed and said it was "a top-quality purchase". She liked that the gliding motion was gentle and lulled her to sleep. She also thought the design was stylish and suggested that it would look great in most bedrooms. However, she pointed out that although it's a great choice for babies, once they're six months old you will need to buy them an additional cot.

She also appreciated that the side panel that slides could be lowered by one hand, so she could quickly answer alarms from her bed to feed or soothe her little ones. Another plus point was the fact that the Roomie Glide has 11 height adjustments so it can be adjusted to nearly any size bed, and it comes with clips and straps that can be used to secure it securely.

5. Clair de Lune

The third movement of Claude Debussy's 1890 Suite bergamasque"Clair de Lune" (French for moonlight) is inspired by Paul Verlaine's romantic poem, and conveys a dreamy sense of a sunlit Italian small town.

It's a romantic melodrama for sure however the music is great.
