 Fabulous product!! Dec 12, 2010
By GizmoMama
We purchased this after being disappointed in the Baby Bjorn travel crib, the Phil & Ted's traveller, and the Kidco Peapod. The Baby Bjorn is huge and must be checked(so it ends up costing more after just a few trips), the P&T's was made of noisy material that woke the baby, and the Peapod looks like a collapsible dog kennel. The GoCrib is fantastic!! Easy to set up, easy to take down. The baby sleeps beautifully in it!! Lightweight, but sturdy. You can move it all over easily when set up. What we love most? You can carry it on the airplane with you, no paying extra to check a crib, no worrying the airline will lose it because it's checked. It's compact and lightweight so it fits right in the overhead bin. If you are looking for an awesome travel crib solution this is what you want.

Awesome Product! Jan 05, 2011
By C. Reed
Wish we came across this sooner. Initially bought our newborn a combo bassinet / travel crib from a popular manufacturer. Was nearly 25 lbs and a pain to take down and travel with. When we heard about the Guava GoCrib we ordered one immediately. To say that we are thrilled is an understatement. We hate cheap crap and this is NOT cheap crap. Its very well built from high end inflatable materials covered in a soft durable protective covering. Its fills in seconds with the supplied pump and the self sealing valves are fantastic. We are big in adventure sports and have a high end inflatable kayak. This reminds us of that, built to last, not a cheap inflatable. Very safe, and VERY packable. This blows the socks off the Bjorn travel crib and anything else we have seen.

Look no further - best portable crib/play yard Jan 10, 2012
By Evan Smith
We have had the GoCrib for 2 years now, and hands down, it's our favorite kid product. We have four children (5 1/2, 5 1/2, 2 1/2, and 1) and, not knowing any better purchased pack-n-play's when our twins were born. We got the GoCrib when our third child was about 1 - and realized what a better quality product it was. With four children, the GoCrib is a go-to item at our house. We take it with us when we travel, use it at the park and beach for outings, and keep it set up in our back yard for easy containment. All of our children use it consistantly. Our twins use it as a tent, our 2 year-old uses it as a quite sitting place, and our 1 year old uses it as a playpen/crib. It's durable (our twins have sat on it on occasion to talk to their siblings), easily moveable (the 2 year-old drags it around to find the perfect spot) and parent friendly. It's easy to pack up, load up, and take down. I love that it's easy to take anywhere. If you are looking for a practical item, that you will use all the time, and that is easy and convenient - take it from a mom of four - this is the portable crib/play yard for you!

 Practical but after one year... Apr 21, 2012
By Twins Mommie
I purchased two go cribs a little over one year ago when my twins were about 5 months old. I really love these cribs - they are light, easy to put up and have travelled by plane and car more than 12 times. We've tried the co-sleeper and peapod as well and these are by far the best travel option. (The baby bjorn seems heavy and difficult based on some reviews so we didn't try it)
After one year, here is what I have learned! Being on the floor does get chilly for the babies, even with an extra pad and sheet. We solve this with a heater nearby, but cold babies are not good sleepers!
Before walking, they are fantastic! Assembly is very easy (even when you arrive late and everyone is tired and cranky). We never had any issue wih the netting or zipper and have always had fairly curious babies (I think it helps that we don't use the zipper, so don't have to worry about them copying us).
However, I do find that we have to refill the air frequently or the cribs deflate and with 18 month olds, the kids are apt to climb out and walk around a bit now. They pull the sides down and climb/crawl right over! We were bowled over the first time we saw it. So, if you can convince your kids to stay in and don't mind the frequent air refill these are the best option for travel in my opinion.
Also two go cribs fit nicely in a golf bag to check for air travel (with extra room for the return trip).

Perfection in a backpack Oct 18, 2010
By Betsy D
"mama dearest"
We started out with the smaller Peapod which was working great for our infant under 1. It was extremely lightweight, packed into a suitcase, and was perfect since when we travel it usually involves airplanes. But now that she is 1, she's running out of room (she loves to sleep in every direction) and can't sit and stand, which she still attempts to do in the peapod even though she's getting too big for it. So, we were looking for a new travel crib. We found this and all love it! It's great because she has tons of space and can move in every direction. The blow up mattress is the same size as a pack n play mattress, so there is an abundance of sheets and pads to choose from to cover it. It took me less than 5 minutes to set up for the first time, and that included reading the directions! I also found it really easy to stuff back into the backpack and get it all back down to the same size it first arrived in. Will easily fit into a suitcase if you don't feel like making it a carry on, and it is still on the lighter side (10 lbs.) Really remarkable product, and very sturdy/well made. Looking forward to using this for several years and for future kids!
