Exactly what we were looking for!!
August 18, 2011
We wanted a playard to keep in the living room that had all of the newer features (changing table, night light, vibrations, parent storage) but despised all the other color schemes out there. I didn't want my living room to scream BABY!!! I wanted it to blend in. This is perfect!! The changer is sturdy, albeit kind of small... I can't see it being useful once the baby is 4+ months, but it flips away and the storage area is still useful. On the underside of the changer is a long velcro pouch, perfect for a few onesies or an extra handful of diapers. The music/lights controls take 4 C batteries and 1 D battery, just fyi so you can have them onhand and not have to run out last minute. There are a LOT of complaints out there about the quality of this item, and as long as you follow the instructions (which admittedly are a bit difficult to read in a few areas) you will not be disappointed. They SHOULD tell you on the box, however, that the instructions are hidden in a pouch underneath the mattress pad. Get that out first before you start doing anything. :0)
Pros
- Blends in with "grown up" furniture and decor
- Good size bassinet
- Parent organizer
- Easy to flip away changer
