I LOVED IT!!!!! Jun 12, 2009
By Michele Benitez
"first time mom"
Pros: The weight limit is higher than most bassinets and pack and plays with the bassinet insert. Most of those only go up to 15lbs. This one is 30 I think. My baby weighed 8lbs 10oz. at birth. She was able to use it up to 8 months. It is very sturdy, not shaky at all. Well made. Even after she could't use it as a crib anymore, I took it with us when we traveled and she was able to sleep in it with it set up as play yard. She used it like this up to 2 years of age. The price is more affordable than most bassinets and play yards. It folds nicely, comes with case. Easy to clean and wipe down, etc.
Con: the only con I could think of is that I could only find the sheet in stores that sold it. Like Babies R Us.

Love it Feb 20, 2010
By Rachel Beck
"Rachel B"
I love this bassinet. Not only is it cute, but very functional. It fits in and out of doorways, and has really made my life much easier with a newborn. My only complaint is that when in the bassinet setting ( the padding is hanging from the top of the crib) and your baby gains a little bit of weight it sags in the middle. My son has started to lay across it since otherwise his bottom hangs a little bit. So, in that sense it is not functional for very long. I do love it, and am not sad that I bought it, but now I am going to buy a portable crib, a wood one, since I do not want him to be sleeping in a different room from me yet. If you are buying this so your baby can sleep in your bedroom and wish to do that for 3 months or more and money is a bit more of a factor it might be a better idea to just go directly to a wooden portable crib. They make great ones that fold. That way when your baby hits 10 pounds and you still want him in bassinet mode his butt will not sag in the middle.
It has been several months since this initial review and I did not end up replacing the crib. I put a piece of plywood cut to the size of the mattress to make the bassinet setting last longer and it worked very well ( I also made my own sheets that sandwiched the plywood to the mattress so there was no separation). When my son moved out of the bassinet to his crib we continued to use this travel crib as well... a travel crib and I loved that about this product. The fact that we were able to travel with something familiar my son is able to sleep anywhere. I love the mesh on the sides so I do not have to worry about the whole bumper thing. I did not want to delete my initial review because I feel as though the sagging bassinet setting is important info to a potential buyer and people should know about all their options before purchasing this product.

Great for Camping or for a small place! Apr 04, 2009
By sungifts I had been searching for a smaller pack and play for our 3 month grandaughter to use in our RV. There was no way our full size pack & play would have fit and I was unsure as to where she would sleep, but now my problem is solved! This turns out to be the perfect size! A good bit smaller than the full size but just as sturdy! The wheels are great, the bassinet feature will be useful until she's a little older and the canopy will come in handy for outside use. So, if you are looking for something smaller to use when traveling or camping - this is the one!

Functional but with downsides Mar 25, 2010
By Seb's mom
"SVM"
I got this to use for my baby's first few months instead of a co-sleeper. The price was better, its the right height for being next to the bed and easy to move through doors. Also, the Marlow pattern was neutral enough for a boy or a girl. I did not like the sheets that were made for it (too thin, not soft) and I didn't think the mattress that it comes with was cushioned enough. So I bought a little bassinet mattress (Summer's, I think) from Baby's R Us and put a 400 count pillowcase over that. The dimensions worked perfectly. The only problem I see is that the middle has already started to sag and my baby only weighs 8 lbs right now.

Compact and Easy to Assemble Apr 28, 2010
By GratefulMama I chose this playyard because it is one of the ones that Consumer Reports gave a high safety rating to, and because I wanted something more compact. This is the first piece of baby equipment that I've put together, and it was very easy to assemble-- I did it on my own in a matter of minutes. I like that it's narrow enough to fit through doorways, even when it's fully assembled. It's very sturdy-- I'm very pleased.
