Love this play yard
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We really love this Travel Dome DLX Playard, it has been a huge help in our home! We have a unique home setup with our master bedroom on the first floor and nursery upstairs. Setting this up on the first floor allowed us to have a changing table and bassinet accessible at all times. The neutral gray color works with our decor and set up is super easy. We can't wait to use this in the future outside and while traveling while our baby grows. Thank you Stellar Testing Panel for gifting us this product to review.
Great for Outdoor Loving Families
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a chance to try this out, thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This one comes with the features that make Pack 'n Plays a must for new parents; changing table, two levels for the mattress, and a small amount of storage ... but the detachable bassinet is what makes this model stand out! When attached to the playard, the bassinet sits nice and high and easy to see, and easy to reach baby. My partner is tall and he likes that it sits higher. It's a lot easier on the back to lift baby in and out when it's attached. My favorite part about the bassinet attachment is the portability! We are an outdoor family and we spend a lot of time in the backyard playing with our toddler ... the portability and UV protection of the canopy gives us a safe place for baby to nap or play while the family is outside. The bassinet's mesh sides also allow airflow, keeping baby nice and cool. It folds down and packs into a carrying bag so it's easy to throw in the trunk for outings to the park or pool. A few cons: the bassinet attachment is quite small and my baby outgrew it quickly, at least for sleeping. I have big babies, and the bassinet only measures 24 inches by 21 inches. We are still able to use it as a safe space for baby to sleep or play when we're outside, but she isn't able to sleep in it at night as she has figured out how to push her feet against the bottom and wakes herself up when she hits her head. The diaper changing station is also a little smaller than other Pack 'n Play models I've used. It's narrow and doesn't have very deep walls so it doesn't feel as safe. The changing table's cover is also not easily removable, making blowouts and messy diaper changes all the more challenging since the only options are to spot clean the changing table or completely disassemble the changing pad frame to remove the cover to wash it. Overall though, I would definitely recommend this to friends who are torn on which model Pack 'n Play to buy!
Modern, elegant, Chic, and cozy for baby!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using this play yard, there are a lot of new design features that I love. If I had to choose a favorite it, it would be the bassinet. The first feature that I love is that the bassinet sits on a secure locking rim of the pack and play. When you take it apart you squeeze and lift the locking handles of the bassinet. The next feature that I love is how plush and soft the bassinet bottom is that my little one sleeps on. When my babe falls asleep in the bassinet, I can see him from the couch because the bassinet is both raised and made of breathable woven mesh. You can tell that a lot of experts put a lot of thought into the design because right above the baby's eye level there is a band of uv protected fabric to help shield the baby from sun in their eyes while using it outside. The same fabric is above the bassinet like a stroller hood that blocks the sun and has a tiny mobile of toys that dangle from it. The next feature that I love on this is the mommy organizer, which clips on the side of the pack and play. I clipped it next to the diaper changing pad for convenience. I put diapers, wipes, and diaper creams in the pockets. I love bringing the daybed into the kitchen while I am making baby food or the laundry room. Being able to keep a close eye on the baby while letting him play or sleep in the bassinet is crucial with being a single mom. I wish I had this pack and play sooner because my son is tall like his 5'11” mom and probably will outgrow the bassinet around the 7.5 month age mark when he starts crawling. Whenever I take it out of the house, it disassembles and reassembles quickly. Now that the weather is warming up, I have moved it outside with me while I am cleaning the garage out. Thus, the dome goes wherever I go with my baby!! If I had a design suggestion to make this better, it would be a vibration setting to the bassinet. The vibes help my baby calm down when mad or overtired and aide in helping him sleep longer. Additionally, it would be awesome if Graco sold accessories for when the baby is larger, and outgrows the infant bassinet inserts. For instance a sun shade canopy to attach to the top while outside would be awesome. If I had to find a flaw I would say it was very tricky to put together the accessories. In general, Graco Pack and Plays are very durable. I have found that if you take good care of them, they can last 10-15 years. My mom does home daycare and has had some last for 20 years. Since I am a single mom, I am short on extra eyes to watch the little one. Having a pack and play with a bassinet has made my life so much easier simply by being able to bring him with me in it. I foresee that I will be using this for the next 4 years as a safe place to put my son down to play, for a nap, a bed while traveling, and while outdoors. The colors and pattern on the play yard are very soft, modern, elegant and chic. I love how Graco pack and play colors have matured and went from royal blue and bubblegum pinks to soft grey and white. I absolutely hate having kids stuff turn my home into a play house. This blends in with my couch and furniture and is soft on the eyes. Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this Graco Dome Deluxe Pack and Play Yard to test and review.
Perfect for second napping station
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would definitely recommend this playard! It's easy to set up if you follow the instructions and got easier each time. I like that it is lightweight and has wheels on one side, so you can easily move it room to room. I am often between the kitchen and family room and could easily set up shop wherever I was hanging out and could easily place my baby in the bassinet or the larger pack n play as he got older. The raised bassinet was great when checking on my son while multitasking- like reading with my other son or cleaning up toys. It says it's a travel system, but I don't think the bassinet is able to be folded and taken on a plane. But it was convenient to move around the house and outside. Overall, the pack n play offered a lot of convenience for allowing the baby to nap on the main floor instead of walking up the stairs to the bedrooms for every nap. I received this product as part of Stellar Product Reviews. Even though I didn't purchase it, I still highly recommend.
A nice product to use away from home
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this playard to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. While it's built well, sturdy and safe, for me and my family it's just not practical in our home. It is large and simply not portable. My husband is an engineer and even he had difficulty assembling it. I watched him do it and it was certainly a process! When he was finished he said this is not something we would put up and take down regularly. It's certainly a thoughtful design but needs some refining. For me the best use for this product is actually at my business. I am self-employed and it's perfect to set-up in my office. I like that the bottom can be raised based on the age of the child, the changing table is convenient and nicely cushioned and the portable bassinet is a comfortable place for my newborn to rest. As she gets older it will continue to be a safe space to play when accompanying me to work. I do also look forward to using the bassinet outside when the weather gets warmer. The bassinet I think is the best part! If you're looking for something that grows with your baby from infant to toddler and you don't plan on moving it from space to space then this is a great product for you.
On Point Again
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So with my first child I purchased a multi function pack'n'play from another company, and it was super cute. I realized later, it was super heavy, not easy to use, took up a ton of space to store or carry in the car and had features that no mom or family will actually use. I'm excited to say that this one is much different. First off, though it is durable, it is light weight and easy to pack and move. We use primarily for travel so this is important. My husband would say this is all that matters :) Set up was easy enough. Currently we have a newborn, so we really enjoyed the bassinet feature. Having this be separate with it's own storage bag is great. At this point, for overnight trips, this is all we need. It also works great just to have as a safe landing spot while traveling, visiting other people and even at home. I highly recommend this very practical, packable pack'n'play with features that actually make sense. It also fits a standard pack n play mattress which is nice. No brand that I've seen has a comfortable mattress for sleeping. Thank you to Stellar Product Testing for providing me with this great pack'n'play. As I've come to expect, another great product from Graco!
Sturdy and good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this from my brother in law as a baby shower present and couldn't be more thankful! This pack n play has been the best the last few months I've been using it! The travel dome is awesome to have on the go!
Great features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Graco sure thought of everything! This is a unique, all in one, pack n' play that allows easy access to change diapers, lay baby down and let the baby play when she gets older. It's easy to move from room to room and was fairly simple for me to setup on my own. The design is nice and gender neutral. Great product! This was collected as part of Steller Product Teating Panel.
Convenient with all the right things!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't think I've had a more convenient playard! In our home, convenience makes a loveable product. My Pack 'n Play is the perfect size for us with everything we need. As a stay at home mom, we spend a lot of time there together. I find it much easier to use for routine nap times and diaper changes than heading in and out of the bedroom during the day. I absolutely love the bassinet simply because my baby girl sleeps soundly in there. It's very spacious, which is ideal for play and nap times. Unlike other featured bassinets, I never have to walk over to peep at how she's doing. The risen dome and mesh walls allow me to see right from the kitchen or couch! I can even remove the bassinet altogether in 2 seconds and safely set it down wherever I go. The fact that the dome has an SPF makes it much more functional and useful for family time at the park or beach. With that said, I'm sure it'll get dirty, however the fabric is easy to spot clean and the bassinet pad can be removed and thrown into the wash! We also enjoy the diaper station with the removable caddy. A lot of diaper changes happen, so I like that I can quickly grab what I need. I'm looking forward to using this Pack 'n Play over and over again. One thing I wasn't too happy about was the set up. Now what should have taken my husband and I 20 minutes took an hour. The instructions didn't seem to be seamless. It took me a while to find where the pages were for the bassinet and changer set up. The playard itself was up in a minute, but the features took a while to get together. The openings for the bars didn't seem wide enough and made it a pain to snap together. It's a small issue compared to all that we do love about the features themselves. Sincere thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard.
This dome!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] That's to Stellar Product testing we were able to experience the ease of this new pack n play. Graco thought of everything when they created this dome too. It fits amazingly on the pack n play and the mesh sides let our sweet girl see the world. It stands well on its own too so having her outside with us is so much fun. I love the design and how well it matches our room.
