The Lotus Bassinet is one of our all-time travel favorites and lots of weeSpring parents use it during those first few months at home, too. It’s super lightweight, easy to transport (folds into a backpack), and a snap to set up (it takes 15 seconds – seriously). The height is right at your bed level, and the ClearView mesh sides provide visibility and breathability, ensuring you can rest easy, too. Free from PVC, lead, phthalates, formaldehyde, and heavy metals, this safe, top quality sleeper is a registry and travel must-have.

Once your little one moves beyond the bassinet, it's simple to transform it into the beloved Lotus Everywhere Crib with their $99 conversion kit.

  • We use this as our napping crib downstairs, since our main bassinet is being used upstairs in our bedroom. It’s large, safe, and easy to put together! Folds up neatly into a small backpack Sep 17, 2023

  • Used when our son was born so that we didn't have to buy a bassinet that we would only use for a couple months then never again. Love that it converted to a pack n play that we can still use now. Jun 16, 2023

  • Super light weight & great for travel. Feb 09, 2023

  • So easy to set up and love that it rocks back and forth! Great addition to the regular guava lotus play yard! Love how compact they make their products. Sep 28, 2022

  • Used for a bit in our room. Worked ok. Did not think it was a long term solution for sleeping in our room but would be great for occasional travel. Sep 24, 2022

  • This was amazing to travel with, but I wouldn’t use it as my every day bassinet because it was low to get the baby in and out and do diaper changes. Apr 20, 2022

    • Anna C.
    • Severna Park, Maryland

    Used this as our main bassinet. Worked great and was extremely convenient when we traveled to visit family because baby was already used to sleeping in it. Baby loved the rocking feature. Sep 14, 2021

  • We got this conversion set to go with the lotus crib. We used it starting night one being home from the hospital through 4 months when we moved to a crib. Sturdy, easy to clean, and baby slept great! May 13, 2021

  • The only pack n play I will even bother with I have both conversation pieces we can bring it to every families house, in the car or on a plane super easily definitely highly recommend Mar 29, 2021

  • This bassinet is very lightweight and is easy to set up. It also folds up nicely to fit in a travel bag that can fit as an airplane carry on. You should also get the travel crib conversion kit! Mar 10, 2021

  • Very light weight and simple to use. Much better mattress than other portable cribs and sheet changes are easy. The base can change from rocking to stand still with a simple click on each side. Feb 26, 2021

  • Used this when we brought baby home from hospital until we transferred her to her crib. Love using the full size option for containing baby for play time and sleep for travel. Jan 19, 2021

  • We used this when visiting grandparents for 2 months and our baby slept perfectly in it, as if he were home in our regular bassinet. Love its portability! Nov 27, 2020

  • Used for 6 months while son slept in our room. I liked that you could make the legs rock or stay flat. Also liked the mesh sides. It did the job but don’t think it was all that special. Sep 19, 2020

  • Works, but regret the purchase. This is marketed as an easy to pack, grow-with-your-child bassinet to crib kit. The bassinet sits so low it is was hard to reach down into after my c-section, and nothing about this is truly easy to pack up and go. Sep 01, 2020

  • This is SO convenient and easy to pack up /set up. The bag with the straps makes it easy to carry. I do wish the bag was big enough for the play yard parts, too though Jun 29, 2020

  • This was great for our newborn. I felt she was very safe in it and the rocking feature was hugely beneficial. I would often rock her while I was still in bed to get her back to sleep! Jun 25, 2020

  • Works great, first baby didn't like the rocking feature but nice there is an option. I wish the hight was adjustable. Love that it's an attachment to the travel crib. Feb 17, 2020

    • Laura B.
    • Eastover, North Carolina

    Easy to set up with plenty of sleep space. We used it for our son while visiting family. Feb 12, 2020

  • Easy to put up and break down! Great product! Dec 29, 2019

  • Used this a ton with baby number one. We were used to a bassinet and this let us have it even in a hotel a long flight from home. Dec 15, 2019

  • This is great and super light. We traveled with it and it was so easy to set up and my daughter had her bed that she knew and slept really well while at Grandma's house. Sep 12, 2019

  • We used this until my daughter was 3 months old. It's roomy so we used her dock-a-tot in it to make a cozier space. It's nice for the conversion now that she's grown out and into the playset. Apr 11, 2019

  • Keep bassinet next to our bed. Love it and our son loves it. It's easy to set up and has a large sleeping area. I do cover the mattress portion with a sheet as it gets chilly. Love the mesh sides. Jan 04, 2019

  • Loved using this as a bassinet with our little one. Easy to rock back and forth to soothe. It is on the bigger side though, so if space is an issue you might opt for something smaller. Jan 02, 2019

  • I love that the sleeping part is as big as a crib. Plenty of room for the baby to stretch out and she won't outgrow it quickly. High weight limit too. She is 6 mos and we still use it! Dec 21, 2018

    • Alex B.
    • Fort Campbell, Tennessee

    Lightweight, east to use, good height. Dec 14, 2018

    • Amy S.
    • Richmond, Minnesota

    Purchased for baby on the way! So far we have the pack and play and love it! Toddler is super comfy in there and takes great naps at grandma and grandpas! Jun 13, 2018

  • Best ravel crib and bassinet. Super easy to set up and take down and light weight so it makes it easy to move from room to room. The rocking motion is great for fussy sleepers. Jun 02, 2018

  • Loved the size of this bassinet-way bigger so we could use longer. I also like that it could be stationary or rocking. The mesh sides were nice so I could see baby from bed. Feb 05, 2018

    • Meg F.
    • Chicago, Illinois

    Moving 3 months after baby arrives so using this as his full time bed until we are ready for a nursery, glad it folds up small for storage. I wish it fit more easily through door frames though. Dec 22, 2017

  • So easy to set up and use and very portable. Nov 15, 2017

  • We couldn't have gotten by without this when traveling with our newborn. It was a safe place for her to sleep and folded up very small. Nov 13, 2017

    • Tracy L.
    • United States of America

    I like the quality and the overall aesthetic. In use, though the legs stick out at an odd angle and I would trip on them a lot. It's also wide if you have limited bedside space Nov 05, 2017

  • This bassinet is light enough to easily move from one room to another, as well as for traveling. We love this as our daily bassinet. Nov 03, 2017

  • Amazing! Love it! We use it every day (and every night) when traveling it packs down, and pops up so easily and quickly. I love it! Mar 07, 2017

  • Great conversion kit for the crib we already had. It was good sized, and will be able to use it for a lot longer than most cradles. Jan 09, 2017

  • Awesome add on to the travel crib. While it has a larger footprint, it's very easy to store anything underneath. The breathable fabric and rockers helped baby sleep those first few weeks. Oct 06, 2016

  • Its for when the Baby is smaller and your traveling with the Lotus play pen. Aug 04, 2016

  • Have this but was not obsessed.. could have been cause I was a new mom, I just preferred to keep her in her crib. May 20, 2016

  • WE LOVE OUR BASSINET CONVERTOR! BEST GIFT WE GOT! May 05, 2016

    • Liz S.

    This was perfect for our child's first five months--especially during the summer months. It's very breathable. The only negative is the travel bag. We really had to cram the bassinet in it. Dec 02, 2015

  • It's lightweight and like the option to pack it in backpack although we haven't done that yet. It is a bit bigger than expected which is my only negative. Love the mesh sides. LO sleeps well in it. Nov 23, 2015

  • Favourite purchase!!!! Baby slept in this from birth to 5mths! Easy to move to have her near me for naps. Simple to pack for weekend away. Fabulous customer service! Safe with mesh sides. Mar 04, 2015

    • Chip F.
    • Port Lavaca, Texas

    Used it when travelling and not. Easy to setup. Super light. Fits in airplanes. Jan 14, 2015

  • Love this bassinet. Plus there is a conversion to placard now too! It packs up small, is breathable, and rocks too Oct 06, 2014
