I love it! I'm 8 months pregnant and I was able to assemble it by myself, although the directions weren't 5 stars worthy. I put it together in about 30-45 minutes. I love the extra features. The cuddle cove is cute but the canopy pops off pretty easy, which is one of my major complaints. My other complaint is that the music is too soft. Wish it would play louder, as I am hard of hearing and cannot tell if it is on or off. The color scheme of the play yard is beautiful and I couldn't wish for a better play yard!

It was hard to find a pretty play yard - so many are beige or light pink. This one blended into our home and was girly enough without going overboard on the pink! The Cuddle Cove was the BEST THING EVER!! My daughter slept SO WELL in it, that when the bassinet wasn't working out, we put it in between us in bed and she slept 10-12 hours straight! It is so handy to be able to move the baby around in when you're not next to the play yard & want to nap them elsewhere. The lining is SO SOFT and cuddly and can be thrown in the wash whenever there's a little accident :) She used to so much that it's actually sagging now (though she's long out of it) - I can't pass it on to anyone since it lost it's shape from pure use - not a flaw! The vibration and the shape are *key* --- they should sell them separately for people not wanting an entire play yard!! She's now 9 months old and hasn't played in the play yard more than a few times, but that's just personal preference. We recently stopped using the changing table area since she's tall and it just didn't seem safe enough, but it was great for the first 7 months!

My husband and I absolutely love this play yard. Out of all the baby items we've received, we use this the most for our 3 week old baby girl. During the day, we use the portable basinette when she takes her naps. At night, she sleeps in the pack and play part right near our bed until she's old enough to be in her crib at night. Another interesting way that we use the portable basinette is that our daughter is constipated quite a bit, but when we turn on the vibration it actually helps her pass stools easier.

I was really attracted to this pack and play because of all the features and the purple colour. However I have not used any of its extra features the change mat is kinda cheap feeling and my daughter doesn't fit in the rocking part which is pretty inconvenient as you have to put it on the floor to rock. Also you can't use the pack and play with the extras attached. Basically the extra features I was attracted to are pointless and a cheaper pack and play would be better.

Absolutely love this! The changing station is perfect for my little princess and she naps soundly in the vibrating seat. It is very pretty and worth the few extra dollars.

Love the color, it is what first caught my eye...you can hardly see minnie, which is fine by me..my husband and i are tall. we are both over 5'9"...unable to change diapers because of our height,,kills my back if i try. When we put baby on it it does tilt towards center of play yard, which is expected, I woke up in middle of night to see my hubby kneeling next to playyard changing our babys diaper,,lol, it was funny. The rocker at first i didnt think i would use as i have a swing and the rock and play, I USE IT EVERYDAY! My baby was a few weeks early and small, (6lbs 12oz) SHe is long though so her length may outgrow the rocker before her weight. Still I love it!! She uses it to sleep in at night(we have the playyard in our bedroom) and I am able to bring the rocker downstairs for her to use. Havent uses the actual play yard part yet, ..never tried using the bassinet part as mattress is thin, but hoping when she outgrows the rocker the playyard will be moved to living room for her use. I put it together myself,so it should be easy for anyone Also the vibrating feature, have tried but if it didnt have it I woudl still have bought it, also the music i wish could be louder,it has a volumn feature but i would prefer it even louder.

I was originally looking for a bassinet, but when I saw purple and Minnie Mouse, I absolutely had to have it. I was planning on using it full time until I transition her to her own room, so I didn't mind spending extra money. At the time, all the extras were pointless to me. However, they have been lifesavers. We have been using it for four months now, and plan to for at least another four months.

1. Changing table- other reviewers are correct in that baby does tend to roll to one side, but for a pack n play changing table, I'm not bothered by it. I never felt like it was going to give out, it was a slight inconvenience but nothing major. There are some with sturdier changing tables, but if that isn't your #1 reason for buying one, then this does an ok job.

2. Cuddle Cove- I thought it was utterly pointless in the packaging, but at 2 am when my daughter was 3 days old and refused to sleep in the bassinet portion, I was so grateful for it. It cradled her, yet allowed me to keep her sleeping in the same place I wanted her to since it clicks in. I feel like it made the transition to the bassinet portion easier, and has resulted in a baby who sleeps very well. It was also convenient to carry around the house (although we ditched the canopy pretty quickly).

3. Sound/music/light box- in the early days, the music helped calm my baby. We didn't use the sounds much, but I imagine if we had earlier on, she would have liked them. I thought the light was stupid until last week, when I was able to turn it on to distract and calm her to take a nap. It's also easy to put on either side rail.

4. Vibrate box- this is the only thing I have not found a use for, but I also never bothered to get the batteries and try it out. My baby doesn't like vibrations though, so I imagine it would be useless for her anyway.

We just recently took the bassinet portion out, as she is getting close to the weight limit, and have had no problems using it on the lower level. If I had to do it over, I would absolutely buy this again.

Love this pack n play! I couldnt find another product in purple. I never used the changing table, so i cant comment on it. My daughter loves the bassinet that came with it, but at now 3 1/2 months old has outgrown it. The vibration is super loud but on its lowest setting the baby goes right to sleep. I would definitly purchase again

I searched and searched for a great play yard. After looking and not finding a bassinet that looked great and had great features I started to consider a play yard. I like this one because its a great color and it has a napper for the baby. My child isnt here yet so thats y I only gave it three stars but really think she is going to enjoy it. I put it together myself and im 8 months. It was hard but it took me a second to get the napper together because I kept putting the lining material on backwards. The instructions are NOT detail at all its like one sentence and a pic so pay attention. Also its kinda wide. we have to break it down for it to fit through out bedroom door.

There isn't a big selection for purple baby things, but found this and thought it was adorable! There are other things that match too, like the swing, high chair, carseat, and stroller. We set it up in our room for now. We love the Cuddle Cove Rocking Seat, and so does our newborn. Sometimes she sleeps in it through the night, or just naps or hangs out in it. The vibrations put her right to sleep, and we can move it from room to room easy. The canopy for it, you have to either keep it on, or completly take it off which is fine. I think it's better that way so it doesn't make it so bulky moving it around. The music on the play yard is nice too, it soothes her. Not impressed with the light on it though. When we change her in the middle of the night you can't really see what you're doing, and have to turn on the room light. The changing table leans too and makes our baby girl roll to that side of the changing table, but it's bareable I guess. I wish they would have made it more sturdy for the price you pay. The storage on the side is nice. We put things like burp clothes, pacifiers, little hats and mittens in there. We have a night stand to put wipes and diapers, but you could store them under the changing table if you want. We store extra blankets under there. Overall we are very happy with it, but not about the leaning changing table.
