It does the job for a safe spot but I don’t recommend it for bigger babies.  My daughter was a tall heavy baby when born so she never got to use the bassinet part by the time we used it.  I love my other evenflo products but I don’t like this one as much, especially how the floor part of the main playard is unstable. The mattress is flimsy and dips under her weight, It’s been almost a year, she’s 24lbs and constantly falls when she tries to stand In it because of this issue. It’s a quick safe place when I have to step out of the room but the design of the floor/mattress needs to be looked into. Nothing worse than seeing your baby lose their footing and going head first into the corner of this playard.
