I truly appreciated this playpen since they paid attention to details but still make sure it is convenient for the moms too.I had C section and this playpen is right for you cause it is not too high for you when you have to bend down to put baby in the playpen.The canopy is something extra that makes it looks different than other playpens.Lots of spaces to put stuffs and diaper storage is useful as well.I really recommended :) to all moms.Very nice playpen and worth all my money i spent.
This was the bassinet that I chose after reading many many many many MANY reviews on all kinds of bassinets and their pros and cons and whatnot.. and the price, simplicity, and the positive reviews appealed to me so I purchased it.
Well first of all it was a nice gender neutral color and the design and pictures on it were absolutely adorable and not offensive at all.
and the set up was quick and easy and folding up for storage was do-able. I set it up in the room with even a canopy hanging over it to create the new baby atmosphere and also to protect my coming baby from flying insects and stuff..
I speak in past tense because a few months later while getting my car transported it was stolen out of my trunk.
Well I ended up never using it from the beginning. It pretty much held diapers and other stuff I wanted for immediate access since it was propped right up next to my bed.. and it was GREAT for that. I hung handwashed baby clothes on it and put laundry in it. It was quite usefull indeed and easy to move around when I wanted to vacuum underneath it.
What I didn't like about it was that the mattress pad was thin and not well cushioned and it was concave in the middle-which probably can't be helped. (Now I imagine most bassinets whether the pricier ones or cheaper ones are all like that.) I couldn't imagine my baby being comfortable going from the warm softness of mommy's womb to laying in a cheaply padded, concave surface- not to mention the elongated head would be forced to turn sideways because of the lack of cushioning. and in the winter time it would be impossible for the baby to stay warm since this thin pad will not retain heat. I know that pediatricians recommend a firm surface because of the SIDS scare, but a baby will have a hard time getting adjusted to that so embrace yourself for many nights of a wailing baby. Well my baby is 10 months now and from the moment of birth to this day she had slept next to me in my bed and not only have I never experienced loss of sleep, she never once had a crying fit in the middle of the night except a few quiet whimpers to let me know she was hungry.
Well overall I think this would be a good temporary bed if you are not sure about getting a big expensive wooden crib. You won't find out if your baby will sleep fine by herself or not till after the baby's born so I would try this out before spending the big bucks. Also it's a good place to keep your baby in when you need to confine her for a short time.
This is my third baby and third P&P as well. Hands down my favorite. Simple, sturdy, attractive, easy to use. The colors are neutral; owls are cute. The bassinet is sturdy and comfortable. I like the diaper holder; very convenient.
Not using the mobile; I would have liked for it to go over the changing table but it has to go on the other end. This makes it a bit awkward to get the baby in between the changing table on one end and the mobile on the other. But no big deal; I don't mind not having a mobile.
We looked at a similar model with the newborn napper; it didn't look very sturdy and not much advantage over just the bassinet so we didn't get that one.
Also recommend:
1. P&P sheets in cream, khaki, or ducks egg blue. Grey or natural linen might also look nice if you can find them. I'm using the American Baby Company Organic Cotton Velour Pack N Play Sheet; it looks great. White, baby blue, or cotton candy pink will not look as nice with the colors of the P&P. If you must have pink I would use either a pale peach or a bold, bright magenta.
2. Something soft for the changing table. The waterproof material is handy to clean, but cold to the touch. I like the Kushies Deluxe Change Pad, Cream Polka Dots; it is the perfect size to fit this changing table, soft, and works well with the color scheme. I also have the Snoozy Organic Flannel Cotton Waterproof Multi Use Pad which is also a good fit and soft but not quite as attractive.
