BABYBJORN Travel Crib Light - Black

It takes longer than one second to pop up and fold, but it’s straightforward and pretty quick. It’s easier to move it room to room. It’s much lighter than a pack and play and therefore easier to carry around. The mattress is also much softer than most pack and play mattresses, but I’m not worried about my baby suffocating. I would definitely buy again.

I was worried my baby who had been sleeping in a crib her own room for the last 4 months would not sleep well on our trip requiring her to sleep in our room. I was too worried that the pack n play would be much too hard so I decided to splurge on this travel crib at a friend’s suggestion. We have used this a handful of times now and my baby has slept amazingly well in it. She has no problems at all, and it is a snap to set up and take down. It’s so light and compact. Highly recommend!

I ordered light brown but received a lovely purple mauve color. It's a great portable crib and the color doesn't really matter, If you're serious about getting a brown one, I'm not sure what happened here, but I'm sure it would be easy enough to return/exchange. I wouldn't have ordered this color, but I really like it.

This thing is amazing. Not only did my son actually sleep in it during our trip, we got home and I set it up next to his crib and haven't moved it since. He sleeps so much better in this than he ever has anywhere else. It truly does take 10 seconds to set up once you've done it. It's intuitive- you don't even need to review the instructions. I did an exhaustive amount of research before buying this one (as opposed to the Lotus, etc.). This one doesn't fold up to be the very tiniest or the very lightest. But it folds up to a very reasonable and lightweight package, which is worth the trade-off in slightly larger size for simplicity in setup and breakdown. Because if you're traveling, easy setup and tear down are priorities.The mattress is comfortable, doesn't require blowing up or anything like some other brands do, you just unfold it- and we found that we can pull an Aden and Anais swaddle blanket across the mattress and pull it taut through the corners and use it as a sheet. I probably wouldn't do that for a little baby, but for an older baby like ours who is old enough to sleep with a small breathable blanket and a lovey, it works well for us. (The sheet it comes with is fine, we just thought he'd like something familiar.) My son is 21 lbs and strong, a very active crawler- pulls up to standing every chance he gets, and he hasn't tipped it over. It's very stable. I like the color as well. This might be my wisest baby purchase in 6 years of parenting.

I have wanted this product for a couple of years, but never thought I could justify the cost. We have a pretty long road trip coming up, and I am quite sick of lugging the heavy pack and play around. I am in love with this travel crib. I would even use it as a regular crib if I didn't already have one. It is very light, about 12 pounds. Sets up in about 30 seconds, without having to read the instructions. I got the pink color, mostly because it was on sale, but it is a very nice dark pink/light purple color. I put my two-year-old inside, and she loved it immediately. She's in the 90th percentile for height, and she still had a lot of room. She got very comfy and took a nap. I originally bought a snooze shade to put overtop during naps to make it darker, but I received the wrong one. I then decided to try and put a sheet over top, and it seems to work very well. Are used a crib sheet, but a pack and play sheet works a little bit better. And is much cheaper! As you will see from the pictures, my toddler was pulling on it and it was very sturdy. She cannot climb in and out, because there is nothing hard on the sides. I then put my six-month-old inside. She played for a good 20 minutes, which never happens. Already a good sign! What I like most for infants, is that it's Jim enough so that she won't be distracted during naps, but I can still see her through the mesh for safety. Also because of the mesh size they have a little bit of give so when she falls over from sitting position, her head just goes on to the mash and no harsh corners like in the pack and play or crib. The only minimal complaint I have, is shown in one of the photos. As soon as I opened it up, before my daughter even touched it, I noticed a couple threads were loose, and the side was fraying. Doesn't look like I got a used product, so maybe just a glitch in manufacturing. But for the amount of money that this costs, I feel like every product should be in perfect condition. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a portable or nursery crib. The functionality is unsurpassed, it looks great, it is so light weight!
