I bought this because I really wanted my son close to me in the bed and I loved the option of the side going down easy so you can take the baby out while in bed. I think my son slept in the bassinet twice and that was it, he was not a fan of it at all. I don't think it was very comfortable, you could feel the hard lumps through the thin mattress. The side did not go down easy and I never used it. I would say not to get it because it is not worth the price, you can get something that is just as nice for half the cost. It is also very heavy and not easy to move.

I bought this bassinet after reading about its safety regarding SIDS. The breathable mesh sides are very nice for both air circulation and visibility of the baby. The mattress pad is also nice and flat. However, I found that the collapsible side that is advertised to be beneficial to moms who have c-sections was really not easier to use and ended up putting more strain on my incision site trying to get baby in and out. This bassinet is also really very heavy and therefore not easily portable.

This is a nice bassinet overall but it was not worth the price for me. If it were more portable it would add to the value in my eyes because then at least i could take it on my travels.
