Safety 1st Soft Surround Play Yard with Bassinet & Changing Table Danbury

Cheap Safety 1st Soft Surround Play Yard with Bassinet & Changing Table Danbury Review

I was in the market for a play yard for some time. I specifically like this one because of the changing table addition. I thought it would flip away when you don't need it but it doesn't. You have to actually take it off and store it somewhere. That was a bit of a bummer for me, but I am pleased otherwise. The floor mat is very cushy and my son seems to enjoy rolling around on it much more than the padded puzzle piece mat I got for is play space. A bonus that I did not expect was the way the corners are designed. they have sewn in fabric than creates a large air space between the fabric and the bars for the frame. I think that is wonderful because if he takes a nose dive for any reason into the corner he won't injur himself by hitting the frame of the play yard. Other models I have seen don't have that, and I didn't even realize how necessary that aspect was until I saw it in action. The fabric is beautiful. It was a bit darker than the display picture, but perfect for a boy or girl, and a rather refreshing change from the bold primary colors currently littering his play area! Collasping and raising the yard was much smoother than other models I have tried. The fabric did not get stuck in the hinges at all like I had experienced in the past. The bassinet is quite large. The picture does not show the bassinet, and I did not realize it came with one, but it does and it is the same size as the play yard. My son is too big for that now, but I suppose it is large enough so you could probably put twins in the bassinet if they meet the weight restriction. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. I was a bit nervous I spent too much on the unit, but I now see that every cent of my money went into quality, and it shows.

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.

Cheap Graco Pack 'n Play Playard with Bassinet, Kensly Review

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.

We were expecting our first baby and fell in love with this item. The colors are perfect for our 'nursery', it has more than enough features and its pretty easy to move around. It works great with our bed (which is higher off the floor than most other beds) and we're planning to use it like a co-sleeper; only much more affordable & versatile! The bassinet cover is also very nice as we have to place it near a window, so it helps keep light out of baby's face during daytime naps. Extra storage in the changing section is helpful too.
