Buying baby furnishings in Singapore - suggestions?

[milkshake]

Hi

I've looked at a few places in the hopes of purchasing my baby cot, drawer/cabinet and other baby room essentials.

So far I've visited - Ikea, Mothercare, Motherworks and Springs. Out of these, I think Mothercare seems to provide good cots but I didn't see cabinets/drawers. Ikea is possible but the cots looks quite flimsy? Btw, at Mothercare, i saw cots that are being sold that says its up to 5 years of age -- i've not seen a 5yo sleep in a cot but does anyone have similar experience where the cot is used past 1 or 2 years of age? If this is possible then it would save me money and hassle of buying another bed.

I also wanted to find out - is there like a big hypermall/mart that sells only baby room furnishings and essentials in 1 shop - kinda like a one stop shop? Most important is the cot, cabinet as my room isn't big and I'm hoping that I can find something that can fit into my room.

Any suggestion is most appreciated!

I'm not local so I'm a bit lost in looking for such stuff.

Hi milkshake,

I shop for my daughter at IKEA, her cot, cabinet with diaper changing "so called" hanging on the wall type. Ikea cot is quite good for long term use. My daughter use it until she is nearly 2 year. For those small cot at Mothercare is only last for a few month and mothercare is very expensive. I heard there is an upcoming sale at EXPO for those motherhood fair/event. You would like to check EXPO website to check on the exact date. You might get affordable items there.
