We started out daughter on the deluxe dock at 5 months and I wish we did it sooner. She outgrew her deluxe and we upgraded when she was about 9 months old and are still using it at 18 months. Best chunk of money ever spent.

DockATot Grand Dock - Pristine White
May 28, 2018
DockATot is a lifesaver. We have the 1st stage for our son, which he is very content with. We decided to get the next stage and store it for future use. We were in luck because we got it on sale. It is quite pricey, but it is completely worth it. Especially for a good night's sleep.
Pros
  • Good for babies 9months - 36months
  • Easy to clean
  • Comfy
Best Uses
  • lounging
  • sleep
  • play
Cons
  • None

Easy purchase, great product, best deal
January 7, 2018
I searched high and low for the best deal on a grand Dock a Tot for my daughter. Albee has been our go to for all major purchases. And once again, they had the best deal on a Dock A Tot. The price was the same as Amazon and the official Dock A Tot website, but there was a $50 gift card offered with Albee. I knew we would be buying a new car seat soon and that when I came back to Albee for that, the $50 gift card would come in very handy! Albee is quick on shipping and everything comes in great condition.

Transitioning to toddler bed
December 5, 2017
I bought the grand for my 18 month old. He is transitioning to a toddler bed and tosses and turns all night. It has helped tremendously. He doesnt bump his head on the bed and seems to not move very much at all. He also seems to be sleeping at longer intervals and only waking when he wants a drink of water.

Comfortable but...
November 22, 2017
Received the dockatot grand and it was very comfortable (for me). unfortunately my son did not like it so it hasnt been fully utilized. It is well made though. The item is very large but when my son was laying in there, it felt like it would not last more than a few months ( he is only 9 months old). I am surprised that they say you can use it for a couple of years.

November 8, 2017
I purchased this item to help my toddler transition from a crib to a bed. This product has been extremely helpful and my toddler lives sleeping in it. This item has also been great to use for my toddler to sleep in on hotel beds when traveling. My toddler rolls around a lot when she sleeps, and I was worried she may round out of the dockatot and fall off those tall hotel beds. She has not rolled out of it yet while sleeping. I am very happy with this purchase.
Pros
  • I can wash this item in my washing machine. Make sure you have a large clothing bag when you to put the tubing in.
Best Uses
  • Transitioning from crib to bed and traveling.
Cons

My 8 month old daughter wanted absolutely nothing to do with the crib and everything to do with sleeping next to me, snuggled up with a pillow. (I know, I know)...she likes to feel secured. She is that baby that flops around like a wild animal in the crib. I bought this and put her in it in my bed with no problems. Couple weeks later put it in her crib...nooooo problems! She puts herself to sleep in it too she is so comfortable. We're not sleeping through the night but I feel very strongly that she, like her brother did, will stop waking to eat when she is no longer hungry.

Worth every penny
May 7, 2017
We purchased this for my 8 month old who outgrew her Dockatot Deluxe. She slept so soundly in the smaller Dockatot that I knew we had to upgrade to the larger one. I'm glad we did. It truly helped to transition her from the bassinet to the crib. I would highly recommend purchasing this and also buying a second cover. You never know when an accident may happen and you have to wash the cover on the Dockatot. Since it should be air dried and that takes time, I like to keep a spare cover handy. We also use this for when we travel and I believe that helps our little one to get a more sound sleep compared to being in not just a strange room, but also a bed that she's not accustomed to.
Best Uses
  • Transition from bassinet to crib
  • Travel

Great solution for co-sleeping. It is a little big even for a king size bed but he seems to be sleeping comfortably and I can sleep knowing that I won't be rolling over him. It is the only product available for babies older than 6 months.

January 23, 2017
We love the DockATot Grand! Our little guy is so happy. We used it to convert him to his crib and it works perfect. We started him in it in our bed and once he got used to sleeping in it we moved it to his crib. It made the transition so much easier. A true game changer for us. We originally got the smaller one but it was much too small for our big guy so we sized up and plan to use this for the long run. It's also perfect for travel. I would have given it 5 stars but its really expensive. Especially because we have now purchased two. Once you open the package to use it is no longer returnable! So we have spent over $500 on two and an extra cover.
Pros
  • Works great and our little guy loves to snuggle into the sides.
Best Uses
  • Transition to crib. Travel!
Cons
  • Waaaay too expensive for what it actually is. And to purchase an extra cover is also unreasonably expensive ($99)

My son is 23 months and I was reluctant buying something so expensive since he's older. This has been a good purchase so far, he's been sleeping on a DockAtot every night and stopped rolling everywhere in bed. I can definitely say his sleeping has improved and we all have a better night.Albeebaby customer service is fantastic, they honored a coupon so that I can use to buy the DockAtot.

So we have tried to use this for about a week and she just won't sleep in it. I wish I would have found it sooner as maybe if you start when they are 4 months (my little is 11 months) they would get more use to it. It's a great concept and I will continue to try as I really want to love it but so far it's been unsuccessful.

Finally Getting Some Sleep
January 14, 2017
This has been a game changer! We are able to safely bed share and get two-three hour stretches at night with our 4.5 month old. I was hesitant to purchase the Grand because of the recommended age of use, but I'm glad I got the bigger one! He is a bigger baby and has a lot of room.
Pros
  • -Safe for bedsharing
  • -Very comfortable, but still a flat surface for baby to lay safely on their back
  • -Spacious and room for baby to grow into
  • -Well made
Cons
  • -Takes up a lot of room (even in or king size bed)
  • -Not good for travel because it doesn't fold up and would be too big for a queen size bed

Game changer
December 22, 2016
The Dockatot is an all around game changer. My daughter is 2 years old and she still sleeps in our bed I was bound to find a way to keep her in the same position all night long so she wasn't kicking me or my husband in the head. We are also in the market for something to help transition her to her own bed. The bed is so soft and so comfy that I want one for myself. We have had no issues with her sleeping in the dockatot since we bought it. She has slept like a dream. There was one day that we had a potty training accident but it was really no big deal because all they did was strip off the cover and wash it. luckily the mattress and nothing else had any soaked or stained spots. Not that it would have been a big deal though everything is washable. As for purchasing this from Albee baby I'm very thankful because it was at the time $50 cheaper than the original price and the shipping was perfect.
Pros
  • Soft, comfortable, washable, helps transition from cosleeping to sleeping in their own bed. Fits in toddler bed perfectly!
Best Uses
  • Cosleeping, transition to toddler bed
Cons
  • Although it is washable, it can only be air dried (in case of shrinkage)

Dockatot Grand is my jam
December 4, 2016
So far, the Dockatot has been a savior for this sleep deprived mama. My baby is a breastfeeding champ who doesn't like to quit. All night long she nurses and if I try to put her in her crib, play pen, swing- basically anywhere away from me so I can sleep- she wakes up screaming. I can say with absolute honesty that every time I've laid her down in the Dockatot, she has stayed asleep. It's amazing- magic, really. There's just something amazing about the softness and coziness that makes her snuggle right in. It's fabulous! Now, mind you, she still isn't sleeping through the night, but it buys me at least 4 hours at a time and I ain't complaining! I'm certain it's only going to get better with time! Thank you Dockatot and Albee baby for the best competitive price I found! It made a very expensive baby product slightly more affordable! Sleep is priceless!!!
Pros
  • Must. Have. Sleep. Therefore, must have Dockatot!
Cons
  • Expensive, obviously.
