Our verdict

The Little Green Sheep fills a gap most brands leave open: a plain bassinet and mattress pair sold in a single market, with no rental route and no smart features. For parents buying through a short newborn phase, the entry price of €64.48 with a mattress included makes it an easy shortlist name.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • A mattress is included as standard, so the entry price of €64.48 covers the sleeping surface instead of stopping at a frame.
  • Support runs on email and phone, which gives a parent a phone call as well as an email for sizing or warranty questions.
  • Mattress dimensions of 28x74 cm are published, so a replacement mattress or a spare sheet is easy to match.
  • The range covers bassinet and mattress, so a bassinet and a mattress can be ordered from the same seller.

Cons

  • There is no rental option, so the setup has to be bought outright instead of hired for a short term.
  • Smart features are not part of the offer, where Happiest Baby pairs a bassinet with a smart sleeper, bassinet and smart sleeper.
  • The range is sold in the United Kingdom, a single market, so delivery outside the UK is not covered.
  • Use stops at 6 months, which is a newborn setup rather than a set that grows with the child.

Who it suits

  • Parents buying for a newborn who need a set that works to 6 months and then gets replaced.
  • UK shoppers who want the mattress in the same order as the frame, since a mattress is included as standard.
  • People who prefer a plain setup with no app, no monitor and no monthly hire, all marked absent from this offer.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Parents who would rather hire than own, because there is no rental option here while Wookids Rental covers cot, bedside crib and mattress on a rental model.
  • Parents chasing connected sleep data, since this range has no smart features and Happiest Baby lists bassinet and smart sleeper.
  • Shoppers who want a bassinet specialist on the shortlist, since Evenflo Company lists bassinet as its range.

What it does well

The setup is deliberately plain. The bassinet takes a baby to 6 months and a weight of 9 kg, which is the newborn window rather than a long sleep set, and a mattress is included as standard so nothing has to be sourced separately on day one. Warranty cover runs 1 year. Smart features are not part of the offer, and there is no rental option, so what you evaluate is a straightforward outright purchase rather than a monitored or hired arrangement.

Where it sits among rivals

The rankings line up with the shape of the product. On maximum age the brand sits at 22 of 35 brands, and on maximum child weight at 22 of 30, which is the same narrow band a newborn bassinet occupies across the category. On entry price the brand ranks 26 of 59, so the asking price sits in the middle of the field rather than at either end, and the short use window is what separates it from the wider sleep sets further up the table.

Who runs it

The legal entity behind the store is GREEN SHEEP GROUP LTD, based in the United Kingdom and trading since 2006. Support runs on email and phone, so a question about mattress sizing, a delivery date or a warranty claim goes straight to the company that sells the product. For a buyer weighing a bassinet, that combination of a named entity and a phone line matters as much as the specifications, because returns and faults are handled by the same party that set the terms.

Frequently asked questions

What does entry cost at The Little Green Sheep?+

The listed entry price is €64.48, and that covers a mattress rather than a bare frame, since a mattress is included as standard. There is no rental option, so the figure you see is the figure you pay in full at checkout.

What ages and weights is the bassinet built for?+

The bassinet is rated to 6 months and a child weight of 9 kg. That is a newborn window, so parents should expect to move on to a bigger sleep space after that point rather than stretching the same product. The child weight limit of 9 kg sits at the same level, so both caps arrive together.

Does the mattress come with the frame?+

A mattress is included as standard, and its dimensions are 28x74 cm, so a replacement or a spare sheet can be matched to the same size. If you already own a mattress, the published measurements tell you quickly whether it will fit the frame you are considering.

Where does The Little Green Sheep deliver?+

The range is sold in the United Kingdom, a single market, so delivery and warranty claims are handled inside the UK. Shoppers based elsewhere will not find this range on their local shelves and may need a UK address or a different brand. That single focus is also why the range stays short.

Is there a rental or monthly hire option?+

There is no rental option here, so the bassinet and mattress are bought outright rather than hired for a term. Wookids Rental is the route to take if paying by the month matters more to you than owning the setup, since its range covers cot, bedside crib and mattress.

Does the bassinet have smart features or an app?+

Smart features are not part of this offer, so there is no app, no monitor and no connected sleep data to set up. Parents chasing that route would be better served by Happiest Baby, whose range pairs a bassinet with a smart sleeper, bassinet and smart sleeper.

How long is the warranty, and who do I contact about a problem?+

Warranty cover runs 1 year, and support is handled over email and phone. In practice that means an email or a phone call rather than a self-service help centre, so it is worth having your order details and the mattress size to hand. The company behind the store, GREEN SHEEP GROUP LTD, is named in its terms.

Who is behind the brand, and how long has it traded?+

The store trades under GREEN SHEEP GROUP LTD, based in the United Kingdom and trading since 2006. That is a long operating record for a nursery name, and support over email and phone means questions reach the company directly rather than through a marketplace seller.
