Since there are no tools needed in assembling the Beside Me Dreamer-Bassinet & Bedside Sleeper, I had it put together in just a matter of minutes. When we stood it up I was concerned it was not going to fit our bed's height, but there are 6 different height adjustments so that issue was resolved with just the turn of a knob to the tallest height setting. Its designed with see through mesh which personally I thought is somewhat on the thin side. There is a storage pocket on it that is rather small. Its lightweight making it easy to move about so having the mattress anchoring straps to keep it secured next to the bed while we are sleeping is a real plus.The side panel can be zipped down making easy access to the baby so convenient during those waking up every couple of hour periods throughout the night.
