REGRET: 2 WANT: 10
  • Pros: space saving, sturdy, lower than others, nightlight, mobile, bottom shelf, stand doesn’t stick out Cons: hard mattress, only brand sheets fit Neutral: opague mesh sides, manual mobile, rocking May 13, 2023

  • Best for small space …. Vibration to sooth the baby … light music as baby required …. Loved it Oct 27, 2022

  • Easy to assemble and take apart. I love that it has a removable sound machine/ night light. When my little one was transitioned to the crib I was able to stick that on her crib. Jul 31, 2022

  • Not padded well. I had to put blankets under the pad, over the pad. I wish it had an option to cover the sides my baby would wake up and cry when she would see us. No power mobile, plays music Jan 19, 2022

    Love that it rocks manually or can be locked. I really love the night light function and mobile.. The storage underneath is great. A little bulky, and not compactable to travel, but great otherwise. Nov 17, 2021

  • I love the music and lights feature on this. Being able to rock with hand was nice, but did get tiring after 15 min. If I could rock this with my feet or this was automated, it would have been better. Nov 10, 2021

  • My baby absolutely refused to sleep in this. This is a very nice bassinet though and we used the projector everyday for a while. Nov 05, 2021

  • The height of this bassinet is perfect to have on the side of your bed. It’s also quick and easy to take apart and take with you on the go. Our daughter loves the vibrating feature and music Jul 25, 2021

  • At first I was unsure of this bassinet but we love it now. My 4 month old loves the soothing vibrations and when he gets up super early I put on the lights earning me another half hour of sleep! Jul 06, 2021

  • Thought about getting a Snow, but baby sleeps great and is happy with this bassinet. She loves the vibrations and they put her right to sleep just like when she is in the car! Also like the nightlight Feb 28, 2021

  • Unfortunately this bassinet didn’t work for us. Our LO wouldn’t sleep more than a 45-minute stretch as a newborn and being lower than our bed, I had to get out of bed each time to check on him. Feb 08, 2021

  • We used this for the first couple of months before her crib. Love the vibration and soothing music. Liked how I could rock her gently. The only downside is that it was heavy to move around. Feb 10, 2020

  • good small bassinet for an apartment but mattress is hard, even for a safe sleep surface, and wish the vibrate didn't time out. Love the projector light -- good soft light for night feeds. Jan 29, 2020

  • A good bassinet for the price. It was small enough to fit next to my bed and I liked the features (light, vibrations, rocking). Jan 23, 2020

  • ABSOLUTELY LOVE. My baby loves the vibrations. Setting for music, volume of music and a projector that displays stars on ceiling. Buttons get stuck but very minor inconvenience. Dec 02, 2019

  • Love the lights and sounds and that I can control it from my phone. Not a huge fan of the mattress and sheet. It feels kinda like paper and the mattress is so thin. Oct 04, 2019

  • We have this in our room beside our bed for baby to sleep in. The frame is very sturdy and it's a nice size. Bassinet part could secure better when you don't want to sway it and I wish it has wheels. Aug 26, 2019

  • My baby won’t sleep in this for more than an hour. We loved the rock n plays with our older children but got this when the rock n plays were recalled. Lots of cool features on this, though. Jul 26, 2019

  • Baby slept in this to 8 weeks old. Made for an easy transition to crib since she lays flat. Wish it came with extra sheets or had sheet available for purchase. Sep 20, 2018
