This bassinet is the perfect spot to set baby anytime. It's not too large, perfect for newborn stage. Easy to move around the house, this bassinet's neutral aesthetic is great for blending in and not drawing attention to another kid item around the house. Its rather low, so it was tricky while healing from C-section. The netting is such a great addition, as we live in the south and I love being able to have baby outside while I garden but safe from bugs. The rocking helps make quick work of fussiness between sleep cycles. It packs up easily and is great for travel. Much less bulky than tradition portable cribs, its great to take along in it's case anywhere. The fabric is nice, and I enjoy that its durable and can last through several children.
