KidCo PeaPod Plus with Mattress

It is for sleeping. We have one for each kid and use it when travelling. It is much lighter and more convenient than a pop-up crib and it also blocks light, making it easier for kids to sleep. You will need toddler-sized bed sheets for it; "play yard"/ pop-up crib sheets are too small for it. I put the sheet right over the top of the sleeping bag which I zip around the air mattress--it makes the bed nice and soft for them.

Cradle Mattresses - Size 15x33

This is a nice mattress, however it is actually 15 x 31 1/2 instead of 15 x 33. When I put it in our cradle and saw that it was too short (you can see about an inch of the cradle bottom on both ends) I measured it with a tape measure. I tried to contact the company to see if this one was a mistake, I was told that they are standard size and asked "was I sure that it was too short?". Like they thought I couldn't see the bottom of the cradle and that I couldn't read a tape measure. I will still use the mattress but I have to put a rolled up cradle sheet at the end of it.

Delta Children's Products Portable Mini Crib

It was simple to assemble, folds very flat, and can easily roll through doorways. The platform is easy to switch from the upper to the lower position (but this design makes it impossible to put a skirt on the crib unless you are able to sew your own with openings for the levers and the parts of the platform that protrude through the slats). Only one side goes up and down, and it does take two hands to do that... but at 5 feet 5 inches tall I can easily reach in and out without having to raise or lower the side.

It differs from a standard size crib mainly in that it is not as long, so I don't anticipate that our daughter will be able to climb out of it any earlier than she would a standard size crib. We also put my friends' two year old (who is at the 90th percentile for height) into this crib once, and he fit in it just fine.

Like other reviewers, we did buy a two inch portable crib mattress (38 x 24 inches) to replace the thinner mattress that came with the crib. We love the crib so much, however, that this extra expense was no big deal. Of note, two inches is the thickest mattress that is considered safe for this crib.

White Finish Tiffany Style Kid's Toddler Cot Bed Frame

We received this toddler bed for my daughter when she turned 18 months old. It is a beautiful bed and reasonably easy to assemble. It looks wonderful in my daughter's French-themed bedroom! My only caution is that the moulding on the side (ribbon) is sharp so beware. My daughter fell against the bed and cut her forehead on an edge on the outside moulding. Just be sure to baby-proof the sides until your toddler is steady on their feet.

Delta Cars Toddler Bed

I agree that this bed is a sturdy bed. Putting the bed together took quite some time as the bolts that went into the metal bars did not line up and the metal clips in the plastic ends had been incorrectly placed and had to be pushed into correct position (I have put together many items from Ikea and am handy with tools and still found the task VERY frustrating!). If I was a single mom putting this together I would recommend doing it at night without an anxious toddler waiting, and expect it to take over an hour.

Also the cars pictures are stickers that do not stick on well and get pulled off by pillows or sheets being pushed around near them. Do not try to tuck in a comforter or thick blanket at the end of the bed as it will bend the plastic end piece.

The bed has held up well and shows no weakness, but the stickers are now gone.

I would not recommend this to anyone who has an active curious toddler who moves things around a lot or might tear off stickers if they start to pull away from the bed.

Rocking Wooden Moses Basket Stand - Cherry

I purchased this rocker for my Uppababy bassinet and it works great. It's much cheaper than Uppababy stand. It looks great and was easy to assemble. I definitely recommend it. I wish the stand was a little higher (I'm 5 ft 10') though, since I have to really bend forward to pick up my baby, but overall I'm very satisfied with this purchase. It is very light and easy to move while my baby is asleep.

GracoTravel Lite Crib With Stages, Notting Hill

Actually my baby will probably never really use this -- its purpose right now is to form part of a fence made of playpens blocking off one area of the basement. That's because my 4 month old daughter is 26" long, and this mattress is only 30". That gives her two inches of clearance above her head and two inches below her toes right now and no room to squirm, but soon she won't even have that much.

However, she did sleep in a pack'n'play in our room for nearly the first three months of her life, and I wish we'd've used this one then. It would've taken up less space in the room, and the fact that it can fit through doorways would've saved us a lot of the under-breath cursing that came with disassembling and reassembling the one she was using every day in order to move it into the living room with us when we woke up. The little canopy is great, creates shade even in a fairly bright room, and I really like the fact that the mattress can be lowered and used up to 20 pounds -- it was my daughter outgrowing the 15 lb weight limit on her other pack'n'play bassinet that made us move her out of our room.

This thing looks great and takes no time to set up, and is a lot cheaper and more portable and storable than a mini-crib.

KidCo PeaPod Portable Travel Bed - Periwinkle

I have 4 kids from 11 -4 and have had it for all four- I even bought a newer version for my 3rd baby but still used our older one! It fits in my backpack and is always a Shady and mosquito free sleeping place for even my 6- year old at the creek, in our yard or at a friends house! True it take practice learning how to close it and that is why I give a lesson at every baby shower I've attended! Really it's not that hard- you just pinch it a both ends and circle in- once you get it you get it. This is by far my most used and cherished item and I buy it for everyone I know who is pregnant! The blue one is smaller(I like that) The red one(Plus)is huge and even though It has more features that I like, I always use my smaller one because it fits into everything.I set it up indoors too- people tend to leave the baby alone when they are zipped up in something and my little ones still love it, it is their own little personal play tent

Lambs & Ivy Basket Espresso

These are nice baskets and a good value for the price. I found them to be slightly smaller than I had hoped. The baskets are quite a bit smaller at the base than at the top. The measurements provided are for the top of the basket. So the storage capacity is quite a bit smaller than the measurements might lead one to believe. Still nice baskets but I probably wouldn't have purchased based on their actual size.

Dream On Me 3" Playard Mattress, White

This mattress fits the Graco Pack N Play perfect, doesn't leave any gaps on the sides that could be dangerous for baby! We are having twins and are using the bassinet part of the pack and play for them to be in our room the first few months. I have read SO MANY reviews on mattresses for portable cribs and almost all of them said the mattress leaves a 1 inch gap on each side lengthwise and this mattress fits snug to every side, no gaps! It is also very firm but not hard enough to be uncomfortable! So happy with this purchase!

Chicco Lullaby LX Playard

The changing table is vinyl and its easy to wipe off if you have an accident while changing. There are three mesh bags hanging off the side of the changing table to store changing supplies. This is my biggest complaint about this product. This isn't the best design for storing supplies. It's ok, not great. The changing table is sturdy and feels secure enough. It's attached to the play yard with a zipper and four buckles.

The removable corner unit controls the music/volume, light, and vibrate features. There is also a remote control and everything uses AA batteries (6 total). The music is ok and it has decent sound. The light is ok (we rarely ever use it) and the vibrate feature hardly even vibrates the mattress. My baby does seem to like it, so it must do something. Every feature times out after 6 minutes, which is nice, and the remote control can can turn everything on or off.

Pros: looks nice, sturdy, remote control, ease of use
Cons: hardly any storage for wipes, diapers, etc..., only a few songs, vibrate function barely vibrates the mattress

Overall the pros outweigh the cons and I'd recommend this product to anyone who is shopping for play yards.

Trend Lab Dr Seuss ABC Storage Bin, Large

Not five minutes out of the box, some threads pulled out of this. It's a great idea with the removable fabric, but done too cheaply I guess. So far, it's still holding up to my daughters things but we don't carry it around to different places in the house as planned. I don't think it would hold up. I doubt it lasts much longer; I'll sew it when it really pulls apart, but the fabric is so thin I don't think it will help. The pattern on the fabric is adorable though!

3 Sprouts Organic Storage Bin

These are super-cute, but lack the structure on the sides so they just flop over when they're not filled with toys. I was hoping they'd be more rigid so I could store toys in them for easy access for our baby and dog toys (we bought two). Overall, I like them, I just wish they could stand up on their own.

Stork Craft Portofino 4-in-1 Fixed Side Convertible Crib and Changer, Espresso

This crib is even more BEAUTIFUL in person! I'm super impressed with this! It did take a couple of hours to put it together, and many parts were not labeled, but the final product is so worth it. Based on the pictures of the pieces you will be able to figure out pretty easily where the pieces go. Also, when putting the actual mattress base into the almost finished crib, be slow and super careful, the metal on the base can scratch the crib wood. This crib has perfect storage and is plenty roomy for a baby/toddler that wants to move around a lot. This was our first Storkcraft purchase, and this is our first child. Having a crib that was both sturdy and beautiful was a main priority for the nursery. I can't wait to get my little one in this!! We did free supersaver shipping through Amazon and we were shocked that the crib was here in 2 days still, and we saved 88$ in shipping! You can't beat the price for this quality crib! My friends and family all paid much more for their cribs alone, and they told me how amazing and expensive our crib set looks!

Skip Hop Treetop Friends 4-Piece Crib Set

I have been debating buying this bedding for my little girl. I really liked skip hop activity mat with treetop friends and we came across it at a store and my husband being the harshest critic Loved it. I tried to check out the bedding for treetop friends and could not really find it anywhere. From the pictures the skirt looked dark brown and i didnt like that. Also bumper pads looked flimsy and cheaply made from the pictures. bumper pads are beautifull and just enough thickness. I love the quality. very cute. in the picture you dont see on upper part of the comforter , there is a little cute bird picture too. skirt color is not dark brown. it is more like muted down brown , more light mocha. Sheet is a good quality. SOOO neutral yet cute enough for a girl:) I have also found matching wall decal. It wouldnt been flawless if skip hop made mobile to match with it because all the owls and squirrels will be just soo cute:) Also wanted to add I washed all the bedding in delicate setting and came out great.

Dream On Me Life Style 4-in-1 Crib

I am not impressed with the quality of the bed. It has cheep wood and the holes for the screws were off just enough to cause a major headache. The thing that I hated the most was how the parts are not stamped or lettered. You have to figure out what part is what from the crude drawings in the instructions. If I had to do it all over again I would not have bought a crib with out first seeing it in person. I guess you get what you pay for!! The only reason it gets 3 stars is because it still functions but I know this will not last long enough to be used as an young adult bed.

Sassy Flower Pop Up Organizer

We have been using ours for almost a year. We bought this for toys, but ended up using it for a hamper. I have dragged it, thrown it (with clothes in it), this thing is tough! No tears from my abuse. I take it on trips with us because it folds down so easily and latches on four sides. It is very light weight, so when my daughter tips it she doesn't get hurt. I want the other design, too, so we can put toys in it.

DaVinci Chloe Cradle

It's a great looking cradle. However, it doesn't sit quite level even with the two rocking stops turned to the floor. And of course we didn't use the rocking stops because we thought we'd be rocking the baby at 2am and not want to reach to the floor at each end of the cradle in the dark every time the baby cried. So the baby ends up stuck to one side of the cradle all night. But I imagine this review would apply to all cradles that rock from the feet. We quit using it and will get a swing-style cradle next time. As for this particular model, it's large and sturdy.

Stork Craft Hoop Glider and Ottoman, White/Pink

I hate this product. I wanted to like it because the colors are perfect for a baby girl nursery, and the price was much cheaper than any of the other gliders I'd seen. I wish I had spent the extra money so I wasn't stuck with this piece of junk. First, the package came with two right arm rests. I called customer service at Stork Craft and got a lot of grief. Finally, they sent me a left arm rest. THEN I noticed that NEITHER of the arm rest pads snapped on. I had to super glue them because the snaps don't fit with each other! THEN I noticed that one of the arm rests was shaky - I saw that, although the screw was all the way in, it simply slid in and out. Not safe at all when I'm resting my arm there as I nurse my daughter! I had to super glue the screw in as well so the arm rest doesn't fall off completely. Now I'm noticing a clicking sound as I rock, and there's clearly something going on with the undercarriage of this thing. It not only goes front to back, but now it veers off to the sides and makes that clicking sound. I've only had it a few months, and I'm tempted to take it outside and destroy it a la "Office Space" because it's that awful.

Ragazzi Etruria Fixed Side Convertible Crib

The crib arrived without any damage whatsoever, not even a scratch. I am five months pregnant and a petite person. I had no trouble assembling it reasonably quickly myself with only a few minutes of help from my husband. The crib looks gorgeous. What sold me on thus crib over the davinci Anastasia was the fact that the screws are not visible on this crib. They are all dark (I got the espresso crib) and are as hidden from view as possible. The davinci cribs all have brass screws in easily visible places. The crib will scratch, but that will be true of all of these cribs as they are made of pine, a very soft wood.

Mia Moda Playgio Playard

I am a mom of 3 little ones under the age of 4... and I've owned 2 standard graco pack n plays, the colorful square graco totbloc, and now this. I love this play yard. It seems to be lighter than a graco, but is sturdy. The pad is soft. You can't see it well from the pictures, but the design is really nice. It's little white leaves on stems. This play yard is a little bigger than a standard graco, but smaller than the totbloc. It's a good size for us and I only wish I had found this 4 years ago and registered for it for my baby shower. I really do like this better than any of the gracos I've owned. It folds easily, but read the directions. It's a little different than folding a graco. Just one thing. Make sure you order this from the page that says free shipping. When I did an amazon search for this, the only one that came up was from an outside seller, so I paid shipping. Then when I came back later to re-read the review, it came up as free shipping through amazon. So, make sure you get the free shipping. Not sure what happened to me. It was weird, I was annoyed, but I'm over it now. Just want to warn others. Anyway, this is a great product, a great price, and I could not possibly love this play yard more than I do. Just a plain and simple product that does its job well. Couldn't ask for more.

Joovy Room2 Ultralight Playard

Don't be fooled by the two poor reviews of this product; you will not find a lighter, sturdier, easier-to-assemble play yard anywhere! In fact, we liked our first joovy room2 ultralight so much that we bought another one for our second baby (they're only 14 months apart, so no sharing yet), and we use them both for all of our overnight travel and late nights at family and friends' houses. Assembly is quick and hassle-free - just read the directions once and you'll be ready to go! What sold me the most however was the light weight. At 21 pounds, loading and unloading the car is easier then carrying my toddler! And both the mesh and solId fabrics have stood up to all the abuse my kids have managed to invent no matter how large or sharp the toy. Plus, the black fabric is so easy to clean. Great buy!

Nap Nanny Chill Portable Recliner

I bought this newborn lounger in the green minky fabric and my then 3 month old daugher went from sleeping for maybe 45 minutes in her crib to almost 90 minutes in the Nap Nanny. My daughter had reflux (and still does) and this product totally helped her sleep better. Sometimes she'd wake up after she'd been sleeping for about 45 minutes, but in most cases she'd go back to sleep within 5 or 10 minutes. I always left the Nap Nanny on the floor and close to the closed door. I really wish I would've bought this sooner. I highly recommend it especially to all first time moms especially if you are going to have more than one child.

The fabric is easy to wash too and it comes out looking great. I washed it on cold and hung it dry.

Munchkin Baby Care Cart

It's good to store baby items and have easy access. Since it doesn't have solid base so expect it to sag when you put too many things in it and it's quite wobbly too. The wooden rods that support 1st and 2nd shelf slide out after awhile. They should just sew it shut then it won't slide out. Now since my baby turns toddler I can't use it as before to store folded baby clothes, diapers, powder and lotion cause he'll pull everything out. Since it's wobbly he can topple the whole thing. So now I use it to store his toys and books which he'll still take out.

Toy Story Toddler Bed

My husband and I bought this bed for our then 2 year old in July 2010 due to his crib being recalled. It was wonderful in the beginning. Our son loved the colorful stickers with his favorite Toy Story characters on it. We bought this out of necessity from our local Wal-Mart store. If given the choice again, I would have just continued to use just his crib mattress on the floor as his bed until we could afford a better bed for him. The "safety" rails on the sides are horrible. My son was able to pull the top (next to the headboard) of the safety rail off with no problem. This causes the screws in the frame to strip the plastic of the "support" beam in the middle of the bed. The metal of the frame is of low quality. Not strong at all. The weight limit on this bed is suppose to be 50lbs., but the frame is broken (bent in half on itself) under my son's weight 0f 31 pounds. Kids are going to jump on their bed even if told not to do it. If a bed will not support this activity, then it definitely should not be used. I thought we would be able to use this bed for him until he got too tall for it, but now we are stuck with a mattress on the floor again until we can find a decently priced twin mattress set. My advice is to spend your money on a good quality, wooden frame toddler bed or just get a twin bed,if space permits, instead of this piece of junk. I would not recommend this item at all. Save yourself the headache. You'll just end up spending more in the long run.

Gift Mark Childrens Two Step Stool, White

I was desperately looking for a white, two-step stool for my newly independent 2-year-old to use at the bathroom sink. With no luck in stores, I found this value priced one online. When we received it, I was disappointed to find out that the vertical board between the two steps was missing screw holes and was not even cut properly to fit the space. The Chinese factory seemed to have skipped that part of the process and then turned around and shipped it out anyway. When you purchase online, site-unseen, these things seem to happen frequently. It would be more work and money to return the product, and you'd still be without the item you purchased, so you settle and make do. Which is what we did. And it works just fine for our needs. Prompt shipping. Fairly easy to assemble. And sturdy.

South Shore Furniture, Changing Table, Pure White

This is a pretty nice unit. Good look and all. The drawer slides are plastic, never seen that before, but they work fine so far. It is constructed mostly of dense particleboard. Not ideal but economic and effective.
My concern was for the sway of the unit when all set up. Granted, I had not yet nailed in the cardboard-like backing provided, but the thing had several inches of movement when I would rock it side to side.
I felt that the stability the may be provided by nailing in the provided backing would not be enough to make me feel comfortable, so I went to Lowes and bought a 1/4" thick wood sheet which I cut to fit the back, painted it white and screwed it in. Solid as a rock now.
This is a good unit for the price. As in all things, you do get what you pay for. Caveat emptor.
