- Electric Rocking Bassinet for Baby

Hands down the best purchase I made for baby number 4. The size (huge!) allows for at least 6 months of use, if not more for babies on the smaller side or less active babies. The snuggle me lounger fits inside perfectly, as seen in the video. Perfect for napping when the baby is smaller. I love that it has wheels that turn easily because we have some tight corners in the house with all the furniture and we like to move him around in the bassinet for many reasons. Very sturdy and well built! No cheap material at all, the mesh is perfect and the basket at the bottom isn’t half bad either. We usually keep the bassinet at the lowest level but the higher levels help when we have it in the kitchen for convenience or when I’m working at my desk. There are lots of sound options, I just wish I could pick one sound and let it play continuously instead of the loop it does with all the sounds. There’s a great range on the volume control. There’s 3 speed options for the rocker and it’s not super noisy which is a huge plus. My 4 month old has slept in it from week 1 and loves it, even sleeps through the night now. I use snuggle me covers to cover the mattress if you need an idea of the mattress size. Overall, very functional, portable in most spaces with wheels that lock in place if you need that option.

In the end it came down to customer service. I’d been reading the Snoo service was terrible, so I went with this bassinet based on reviews and the fact I could return it without paying crazy fees and dealing with a big hassle. I’m definitely NOT returning this. Love the adjustable height. I have it up to the max height for my husband and although the manual says not to, I have it clicked one setting lower on one side for my baby that has reflux. The rocking is gentle but effective. My 7 week old has been using this since 4 weeks and he sleeps almost 12 hours. I have to wake him up to eat and change diapers. He’s really comfortable. I put him in drowsy but not asleep and use the rocking function for about 5 minutes until he’s asleep and then turn it off. I ordered the vavasoo mattress cover and sheets. The cover isn’t necessary because the mattress is waterproof but it does add some comfort/padding and fits like a glove. The sheets are essential and fit perfectly. We swaddle him with a muslin blanket or Velcro swaddle inside and he seems to love that. I also like that you can have it as a standalone bassinet or strap it to the bed. The wheels make it easy to move room to room if needed. I spilled a little liquid vitamin on the side and it wiped up nicely considering how bad that stuff stains. Yes, the music sucks as other reviews state. We have our own sound machine anyway. The only button I push on the remote is rock and power to turn it off. This bassinet was a great, random find. I’m so glad I didn’t get a Snoo - this has every feature I wanted and more, looks great, is sturdy and I feel comfortable knowing if I have a problem I can contact the mfr or Amazon easily. Very happy.

This was the most important item for me to buy for baby. I’ve researched hours on all the rocking bassinets because I had very specific wants. We know what works, this is our 4th baby. This was my top choice after being a loyal user of the rock n play for the first 3, but that’s baby contraband now and they only lasted 1.5 infancy's each so we had to move on. So far so good. As soon as it arrived I set it up to make sure it worked and it worked great. It’s sturdy and incredibly easy to assemble (no screw driver or tool necessary). It also packs away and unassembled perfectly, right back into the bag & box for storage which was great. My gripes with this is that the music turns on every time you power on! Why in the world would I want music to auto turn on with the rocking motion?! I’m going to just cut the wire to the sound box. I’m never going to use the music. This is a glaring design flaw to me. That and the auto off after 45 minutes of rocking (which now every single rocking baby item has) which is plain old irritating. How about let me decide when I want the rocking on and when I want it off. The mattress is incredibly thin so we will be using a different thicker “not recommended/ not safe” *eyeroll* instead. We haven’t begun using this yet will update if necessary on that front.

After researching multiple cribs, I liked the fact that this one was rocking and had white noise and songs built in as a feature. Since it is twice the price of most cribs, I naively thought that it would mean I’m making a right decision. I WAS SO WRONG. Literally the very first thing you need to assemble are wheels. WHEELS DO NOT HOLD. However, I assumed that once I assemble the entire crib, it will be heavy enough so wheels will stay in place. (No. As I finished assembling the crib and started moving it, one of the wheels fell off. This fact alone for me is enough to return the crib). I’m surprised no one else is saying this in their reviews. There are a few more things I would to share. There was one review saying that once you turn on the crib on to rock, music starts to play. It is true. After you turn the crib off, it always turns on with the same melody that is pretty active. First you have 3 songs, only after that you get 3 what I suppose should be white noise. THERE IS NO WHITE NOISE! It is (1) music with bird singing, (2) bird singing, (3) white noise with bird singing. Another thing I didn’t like is that a mattress is very thin and bottom surface is hard. You need to buy another mattress. I am definitely returning it. Very disappointed .

My baby loved this bassinet until he outgrew it. The rocking option would immediately put him back to sleep if he woke up in his sleep most nights. However, it is very very firm and I do feel like it contributed to my baby’s brachycephaly.

Honestly I have not used my crib since I had my baby. This bassinet is easy to roll around the house and my baby sleeps so well in it. It’s a little pricier but I think it’s worth it. The size is perfect for near your bed and the sleep pad is pretty comfortable and not too thick where it’s a sleep hazard. The swinging motion is also great not too fast or not too slow. The music can be on or off which I really like it also has a white noise if you wanted that instead of the nursery jingles. The little storage at the bottom is something I use a lot. I have a newborn so I did add my own mobile because the one it comes with my baby isn’t interested in yet because she sees in black and white but I’m sure she will like it as she gets older.

For the money, I can't quite recommend this bassinet. We bought this in hopes our newborn would sleep better with a rocking motion. The rocking motion is fairly gimmicky and it's not very noticable. It is quiet for what that's worth. Also, the pad is VERY thin and your newborn will basically be laying on a thin sheet of press wood. I certainly can't imagine it being comfortable. This technically checks a lot of boxes, but there has to be better options out there. Lastly, the cord is fairly short if that is an issue for you.
