  • Nice to have handy in the living room so you don’t have to go to room to room. It’s easy to put together and take apart. I wouldn’t use the bassinet for sleeping due to unsafe sleeping though. May 17, 2023

    Loved that practically every part was washable. Not the most portable though. Dec 22, 2022

  • I got this as a gift at the baby shower. I absolutely loved it! It was great for when my baby was little and it grew with her. We used this so much! Highly recommend! Feb 17, 2022

  • We've used this pack and play for 3 of our kiddos. It's lightweight and durable. It's also not overly gendered. It's also simple enough to take on outings. May 23, 2021

  • Sturdy playard. A bit clumsy to assemble but easy once I figured it out. The mat has a lot of cushion. The full size bassinet mesh is held up by a thick zipper, I don't know how long that will last. Apr 13, 2021

  • Ok but not great. The changing table and bassinet are super handy. Although the linings are all washable, the outside fabric isn't. The mdf panel inside the mattress also gets wet during an accident. Feb 10, 2021

  • Love it ! Super good quality, just enough storage on the side and versatile. I used for about 2 years actually and it’s still in great condition, also love that the changing table flips out of the way Jan 30, 2021

  • This was so great for us. Newborn napper, changing area then remove for baby when they are a little to play. Then remove again and have a large play area for older baby. So easy to fold up and go too Jan 24, 2021

  • Bassinet material is so soft, change table is amazing and you can clean so easily. The inside is easy to clean for the playard and holds up pretty well, still have mine and plan to use it again! Dec 22, 2020

  • Love: it’s lightweight Dislike: very hard to close up to put in the bag. The playyard mattress wraps around but is extremely hard to pull tight and latch. Jun 30, 2020

    Must have for every parent. Easy to set up. The whole product is lightweight and can be easily moved between rooms. The bassinet and the changing station are great for new born! Jun 26, 2020

  • Like: Basinett is sturdy. Netting is durable. Dislike: 5 sections on mat so you have to overlap in order to pack up. Barely can strap shut. Wheels are useless, don't work unless at unrealistic angle. Jun 16, 2020

  • We love this system. Super easy to set up break down, durable and easy to clean. Feb 27, 2020

  • This play yard is so difficult to set up and take down. Maybe it’s my specific one that I have, but I broke one of the sides trying to get the thing to collapse! Not worth the headache. Feb 19, 2020

  • One of the easiest pack and plays to set up and take down! We tried many other brands. Bonus: totally washable! Love the higher height of the change station and security of zipper for raised mattress. Jan 01, 2020

  • Prefect for baby naps away from home. We also set it up on our main floor for baby to nap and easy diaper changes so we didnt have to go upstairs every time Aug 22, 2019

    • Jenny K.

    Love the playard. Easy to set up and clean. The only issue I have with it is the bassinet and changing attachments. They don’t fold easily when you just want to use the bottom and bars stick out. Aug 21, 2019

  • This has a washable cover over the mattress which makes this unit superior! Jul 22, 2019

    • Rose Q.

    I bought this for my newborn. I love how she can nap in the infant sleeper. I love that is have the side pockets to store diapers and baby wipes. It came very handy. And it has wheels to take it from room to room. Jun 27, 2019

  • Love the colors and convenience of the all-in-one concept. Great buy for maximizing small spaces. Only negative is that it doesn't roll even though it has wheels. Overall great buy! Jun 27, 2019

  • Easy set up and tear down. The bassinet is a little tilted so the baby slides towards a side, but with mesh walls so it’s breathable. Jun 27, 2019

  • This has more mesh than some of the other colors on the bassinet. It can swing a little to help rock baby to sleep in the bassinet and the changer feels sturdy. The ends of the top level of the playard drooped some when there a sheet on the "mattress" due to it blocking the Velcro which was annoying. The mattress is very plastic-y so I wouldn't want to use it without a sheet. Again, you can rock it a little due to the mesh at the top level which was helpful. Jun 27, 2019

  • Loved the play pin. I however never used the bassinet or changing table attachments. May 27, 2019

    • Iris R.
    • Oroville, California

    I live that it grows with baby so you don't have to buy different products. My son loved the bassinet for naps and then I could easily change his diaper on the changing pad. Great gender neutral color Apr 23, 2019

    We used this as a newborn changing table / napper and now use it as a travel crib for our 14 month old. It was a little hard to find a sheet to fit because it is not quite the standard size Mar 18, 2019

  • LOVE this playyard! The changing table and bassinet are removable, and the changing table folds to the side as well. There's a netting for a raised bassinet portion as well! Mar 07, 2019

  • We use this beside our bed. Love the bassinet with semi incline great for reflux.The changing table is narrow but works great for little squirmers. Love the colors and folds nicely.cover wears easily Jan 31, 2019

  • I love the changing station and bassinet as it allows me to have. Adetup in my bedroom while baby is young. Also love I can wash all surfaces in washing machine Jan 30, 2019

  • Easy to open and close. Love that it has the upper section to use when baby is smaller. Bassinet is great for newborns. Great for having baby in room with you. Storage and changing table are a plus! Jan 07, 2019

    I recomend this product the most. I use it in my bedroom to have the baby near us. It is safe for him to sleep in and we use the changer for diaper changes in our room. The only downside is the matres Jan 04, 2019

    • Aly V.

    cannot go wrong with this bassinet, changing table, crib combo. Great for bedside with diaper station pockets. A MUST HAVE! Dec 31, 2018

  • I actually have this product but in the Cambridge design. I really love that the colors are gender-neutral, and the bassinet and changing station features are wonderful. So easy to put together! Apr 02, 2018

  • We used this from day one! Love the changing station and the angled napper. The side storage for diapers and other items is awesome. I would highly recommend this play yard. Mar 21, 2018

  • Easy to setup and nice looking pack and play. Wish the bassinet was wider. Only downside. Mar 03, 2018

    love it! have one at work and at home! Was a little complicated to put together Feb 28, 2018

    • Rachel G.
    • Egg Harbor Township , New Jersey

    Best ever! Saved me from having to buy 3 different items! Apr 22, 2017

    • Kayla S.
    • Travelers Rest, South Carolina

    We love this! The only problem I had was with the bassinet portion of it. My little man was a long baby and quickly outgrew the length of it. We needed to purchase another bassinet he could fit in. Mar 29, 2017

  • My daughter loves to sleep in the sleeper and I like the way there is a patch of mesh on each side so the baby can breathe in case the baby's face gets pressed up against the side of the sleeper. Feb 08, 2017

  • Love it! Beautiful pack n play Dec 29, 2016

  • I love this product, I have it for my daughter, unfortunately she outgrew the newborn napped in the first month we brought her home, but that was kinda expected. She now sleeps in the bassinet part every night. It is easy to set up and tear down. Dec 02, 2016

    • Amy C.

    This play yard is really easy to clean, but so difficult to put together! The pad is quite hard, so none of my children have been happy in it for long periods, like naps. Nov 22, 2016
