Compare Mokee's 120x60 and 140x70 cot beds on floor space, mattress type and toddler-bed conversion, with clear guidance on which size suits your room.
Quick answer
Choose a 120x60 cot bed if your nursery is tight or the cot doubles as a guest sleep spot, because it frees up roughly 2,600 cm² of floor space compared with a 140x70. Choose a 140x70 cot bed if you want a longer usable sleep surface and, on the Midi models, a removable panel that converts the cot into a toddler bed. Both Mokee sizes include a mattress, so the real decision is floor plan versus longevity, not mattress cost.
How much floor space the two sizes actually take
A 120x60 cot bed occupies 0.72 m² of floor space. A 140x70 cot bed occupies 0.98 m². That 0.26 m² difference is roughly the footprint of a small bedside table, and it matters most when you also need room for a wardrobe door to swing open or a chair beside the cot.
Measure the gap between the cot's intended wall and the nearest obstruction, then subtract at least 40 cm for access. If that gap is under 1.3 m, the 120x60 leaves a comfortable aisle; at 1.5 m or more, the 140x70 fits without squeezing the rest of the room.
Sleep surface and how long each size lasts
The 140x70 surface is 20 cm longer and 10 cm wider than the 120x60, which gives a taller toddler more room to stretch and makes the cot usable closer to the point where a child moves to a full bed. The 120x60 is a compact sleeping solution that suits toddlers or guests, and its petite footprint is the point rather than a compromise.
Neither size is a full-size single bed. If you expect to keep the same frame in use past the toddler years, plan on a separate bed regardless of which cot bed you buy.
Mattress type changes with the size you pick
Mokee's 120 bundles pair the cot with a natural mattress. The 140 range splits into two options: a natural mattress, or a premium Aloe Vera mattress described as a comfortable, breathable surface designed for safe, restful sleep. That means the 140 size gives you a mattress choice the 120 size does not.
If breathability is your priority, the Aloe Vera pairing is only available at 140x70. If you want the simplest, lowest-cost bundle and your room is small, the 120 with natural mattress is the more direct route.
Conversion to a toddler bed
The Midi 140x70 cot bed includes a height-adjustable base with 7 positions and a removable panel that transforms the cot into a toddler bed. That conversion is what earns the word "bed" in the name, and it delays the day you need to buy a second piece of furniture.
The supplied Mini 120x60 records list the cot bed and natural mattress but do not specify a base-position count or a toddler-bed conversion panel. Treat that as an open question and confirm with Mokee before buying if conversion is essential to you.
Trade-offs to weigh before you order
- Floor space vs sleep surface: The 120x60 saves about 0.26 m² of floor, but the 140x70 gives 20 cm more length and 10 cm more width for a toddler to stretch. Small room: 120. Room to spare and a child who will use it longer: 140.
- Mattress choice vs simplicity: The 140 range offers both a natural mattress and a premium Aloe Vera mattress; the 120 bundles list a natural mattress only. If the Aloe Vera surface is non-negotiable, you are choosing 140x70 by default.
- Toddler-bed conversion: The Midi 140x70 includes a removable panel that converts it into a toddler bed, plus a 7-position base. The Mini records do not state a conversion panel. Buy the Midi if you want one frame to cover cot and toddler years without a second purchase.
- Colour and finish: Ocean Teal and Dusty Aqua cover the 120 size; Stone Blue and Walnut cover the 140 size. Walnut is specified as FSC-certified solid beechwood with water-based paint. Pick the size first, then the finish, so you are not trading room fit for a colour.
