I used the bassinest for my second child and decided to purchase the luxe for my third. I love that it comes with the lights, sounds and vibrations and can be taken off the stand. My second child used this bed until he outgrew it. He could safely sleep next to me, hear and smell me. It put me at ease to have him so close without bed sharing. Night feedings were so much easier. The way the bassinet bends so that you can get the baby out without standing up or reaching over a rail is amazing. The swivel feature helps to move baby if you need to get out of bed for restroom in the night with no disruptions. I used to jiggle our old bassinet, so I’m excited to see how well this vibrate feature works. Keep in mind-babies don’t sleep for a while. Around 7 weeks, with arms swaddled down, my son started sleeping longer and longer stretches in this bed. Love it.
