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.
