Skip Hop Baby Bassinet, Cozy Up 2-in-1 Bedside Sleeper & Bassinet, Grey

We almost didn’t purchase this bassinet because I read reviews that it was hard to put together. I did it by myself with minimal issues. It was difficult to put the wooden base on, but I got it figured out in no time. The bassinet is very sturdy and easy to move around. We haven’t used it yet but so far, so good!

This bassinet was just what I was looking for. Right size, on wheels, mesh style side material, and aesthetically pleasing. Really glad I bought it after one week at home with the baby.

I had an unplanned c-section and ended up buying this from the recovery room with minimal research simply because it had a drop side feature like the hospital bassinet and could be delivered by the time I got released. It ended up being the best baby item I have purchased and I couldn't live without it and would recommend it for everyone.For C-section moms, this is perfect to keep next to your bed in the early days when it's tough to get up. It's low enough not to hit your belly but high enough you don't have to bend and from bed you can drop down the side panel to reach your baby without even sitting up.For all parents, this thing being on wheels is fantastic. Get one for your main living space and wheel it around when you can't carry or hold the baby but want to have them in eyesight or keep them entertained when you're awake. We keep ours next to the couch as well for quick access and interaction. This thing is better than a playyard because you don't have to bend down and can also roll the baby around when they're fussy to soothe them.Seriously, buy this bassinet - you won't regret it!

I tried several bassinets before finding this one. I love how spacious this is without being cumbersome. The sides are all mesh so it’s super breathable. My bed is super tall and this bassinet is the perfect height when on its tallest setting (and it still feels sturdy even extended all the way). My favorite part is the drop down side. Other bedside sleepers appeared to have zippers or Velcro which seems annoying and noisy if you have a sleeping baby. This one just slides down with a push of a button. The mechanics of the sliding side are well concealed and I have no worries about my baby getting fingers or limbs stuck in it. A lot of reviews talk about assembly being difficult, the part the mattress sits on was hard to attach but not a deal breaker by any means.The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the mattress is too hard. I know a safe sleep mattress is firm but this one is hard and has a noisy plastic material on it. We have worked around this by placing a folded blanket under the fitted sheet (I know this is not considered safe sleep but it works and my baby sleeps with a breathing monitor).

The sliding down of the sides is a total game changer. The last thing you wanna do in the middle of the night at 2 AM while feeding your baby is then struggle with snapping some thing back up together while not waking back up your newborn.I also find it rolls much easier. I roll this into the bathroom when I shower or wherever I need.The mesh sides are perfect so they can breathe if they shimmy over to them (trust me, it’s inevitable).The sheet also comes off and the mattress pad is waterproof, just wipe clean.I love this thing for the money and quality.Also, must be comfy - she’s sleeps on it no problem since day one.

Rating 3 stars because the color appears much lighter in the product photo than in person. In the photos it appears grayish white but the netting is a grey so dark that it’s hard to see through. Also don’t like how you have to unscrew the bolts to adjust the height. Lastly, the mattress is waterproof and in turn is very noisy.

If you are a family of giants, this may not be the bassinet for you! I am over 6 feet tall and we have a king sized bed. This bassinet does not reach the top of the bed for me to stay in it to tend to the baby giant. He fits in it just fine, but my aching back after a c-section just does not get any relief from the “regular” or “normal” sized things meant to make parenting babies easier. The bassinet was easy to put together, minus the time it took to unscrew and re-screw the leg screws to raise the height. This is a must buy if you do not have a king sized bed and are not even close to 6 feet tall!

You will feel great putting your baby on it.

assembly was fairly easy, sits really low for a bed with a bed frame though. i have a queen with two mattresses on a bed frame, i had to take my bed off the frame but other then that i’ve loved it ever since.

Manual Step 10. Secure MATTRESS BOARD with two WIDE HEAD SCREWS.The two screws doesn't align with the holes on the frame, there's no way to secure the board.How can you even sell something defective like this?===Update:Started a return but tried one last time and I figured it out.The manual says Secure the borad at step 10, don't do that.so right after step 1, instead of putting on the SLEEPER FRAME, put on the mattress board. Bend the two legs towards each other, just a little bit to secure two screws.

Too stiff to roll around, the mesh is hardly see through, the pad is so hard, it’s manufactured poorly, the side that comes down is so loud each time it’s lifted up and down; overall this isn’t great. I still recommend the Halo Swivel 100 times over this product.

The reviews on this page are deceptive since the company included a diaper pails as the second option, an entirely different product. You quickly realize the reviews are mostly for the pail and not the bassinet.The bassinet itself is alright if you can assemble it. The board has misaligned screw holes making it very hard to assemble. I'm not sure how the company never noticed this, multiple reviews are mentioning the same problem. There's some legitimacy to the mattress not laying flat, but for us it's not as bad as some other reviewers.
