This thing has truly saved my sanity! I'll admit I was skeptical but our 5 month old took too it immediately. Our soon has suffered from silent reflux and would only sleep in a rock and play, trying to transition him to a crib was a nightmare. He never lasted more than 15 min before screaming. With the dockatot he sleeps in the crib almost all night! He's a big baby and I was worried that buying the deluxe at 5 months old would be a waste but it keeps him perfectly snuggled and it's well worth the money. We will probably purchase the grande once he grows out of this.

I was super on the fence about buying this because of the price and I didn't want to end up with one more piece of useless baby equipment taking up space. My husband convinced me to buy it and I'm so glad he did. We don't use it for co-sleeping. My husband and I are both slim but it really doesn't fit comfortably in a queen size bed unless both people only sleep on their side. We mostly use it on the couch in the living room. It's so nice to be able to put our 2 month old son down in a safe space and not have to worry if I doze off or need to run to the kitchen for water, snacks,etc. It did take a couple weeks for him to get used to it but now he loves just hanging out in it. It certainly wasn't some miracle worker that suddenly allows us to sleep 8 hours straight but it's certainly made it easier for me to get naps in as well as get stuff done around the house. I didn't realize how much I depended on it until he threw up in it at 8pm and I immediately ran downstairs to throw it in the wash cause I couldn't imagine my morning without it! One of my top 5 baby necessities.

Not all it's hyped up to be

I bought it because I would see post after post of how this thing miraculously put babies to sleep but it did nothing for us. It was a good thing to have the first couple of months because my son slept between my husband and I but after that it was just there for show. It didn't work on the plane, it didn't help with the crib transition and it didn't make my baby sleep longer. As soon as he was able to roll over he wanted nothing to do with it anymore.

The best investment we could have done. I was skeptical at first but our daughter slept for about 5 hours straight the first night. Best co-sleeping invention ever! We seriously take it everywhere..

I feel so comfortable with my baby in the Doc-a-tot and feel like I can place him anywhere without worry of him falling, rolling over or getting smashed by us or pets. . He sleeps better and so do we!

We bought this Dock a tot for our friends, since it worked magic for our 1.5 month baby girl! She use to get up every 2.5 to 3 hrs and the first night we put her in it swaddled, she slept 5hrs and now she sleeps 7-8hrs!!!! Our friends baby now sleeps 7 hrs as well! They are so thankful and amazed, you'll be too! It's been a God send, best of luck!

We bought the Dockatot at 2 am when we our 6 week old still wouldn't fall asleep. She would only sleep if I was holding her. Since we've gotten the Dockatot her and I both are sleeping much better, and safer! I've been able to sleep better knowing she is right beside me and still safe! So far she loves it and only wakes to nurse. The first day we got it we put her in it and she put her self to sleep! Great product and will be moving toward the grand once she gets a little bigger. Just wish we would have gotten it sooner!

Nice Product but not a Miracle
March 23, 2017
I bought one after reading a ton of reviews. I was apprehensive because of the price but wanted to cosleep more safely. Firstly it's very well made. However the cover got spit up on it immediately as my little one spits up quite a bit. It's a bit difficult to remove and put back. I feel comfortable putting baby in it. However she does not sleep better in it than on or beside me. If she passes out hard in my arms, I can put her in it and she will sleep comfortably for sometime. But she will also sleep in her playpen or chair for the same amount of time; it has not so lengthened her sleep time or made her fall asleep quicker. She is not quite a month so things may change but I hope to have her in a crib by 3 months like my first. I therefore have mainly been sleeping with her and storing things in it since it has a hard flat bottom. I would give it more stars if it was giving us more sleep.

This purchase was definitely worth the price. It is the perfect little accessory for any baby!! We took it with us to the hospital and it was great to know that we placed him in something clean and snuggled him while he slept.

I am an over anxious first time mom. When we brought baby home from the hospital, she hated her bassinet. The only ACOG approved place she would sleep was in her pack-n-play bassinet. I had her sleep in that bassinet on my bed. By 3.5 months, she was quickly outgrowing it and still refused to sleep in her normal bassinet or crib (I can't blame her, the mattresses are so hard). Besides, I am still over anxious and want her closer to me than what her bassinet or crib could offer. I found the Dock-A-Tot online. I was hesitant because of the price and don't really have it in the budget to buy these new baby products that have recently hit the market with seemingly miraculous claims. I decided to give it a try based on the reviews. I liked that it was made with breathable fabric, allowed her to be in arms reach, and was equipped with a clasp that would allow her to use it longer as she grew. Needless to say, after it was delivered, I was so happy to see an added bonus; that the mat is a little more cushy than the hard bassinet mattress that seems to offend my little one so much. My baby loves her Dock-A-Tot; therefore, so do I.

At the time of my purchase, my baby was 8 weeks and sooo fussy. I read many positive reviews for the Dockatot and how miraculous it was for putting babies to sleep. I thought once I put my baby in, her fussiness would vanish but that was not the case. I suppose it is something I need to "train" her to use. We don't use it for co-sleeping but we used it to help her with tummy time which was great. We also use it for when we're on the couch or the bed and we don't have to worry about her rolling off. I do like that it is travel friendly.

I was extremely skeptical purchasing this product. Either way i had to try it for myself, the first 2 days of day my daughter about hated it and i was furious. Ready to shop it back, I decided to try it one more night. That must have been just what she needed because now she loves her dock! It may not always help prolong sleep, but for us we can take the dock when we travel and she won't be disturbed to sleep elsewhere.

I bought this when my baby boy was 2 months but i wished i had bought it sooner! When we put him down in his dockatot he would fall asleep. Now my husband and I can sleep through the night since our baby does too :) we hardly have to rock him to sleep and it's great for co-sleeping. I really like that the fabric is breathable! Love The DockATot!

We've only had our dockatot for a few weeks but so far it's love ! We were determined to try something different with our third babe after our second was a terrible sleeper. Dockatot came highly recommended. We love that Hunter feels safe and secure and sleeps 6-8 hours at a a time !!! Plus with us traveling a lot it's so much easier to take with us than the bulky pack n play ! Overall it's 5 stars from us.

Our son has been using the deluxe for almost 3 months now and this last week we took it on a trip overseas. It was so nice for him to sleep some where familiar while there, but he also came home and slept for 7 hours the night we returned! The dock-a-tot helps with jet lag too!!

My 7 month old girl was recently crib transitioned and fussed every time I set her down. She would then continue to fuss for a few minutes before falling asleep. Now with her dockatot she fusses until she hits the pillow and then she's out! Amazing product.

We started with a Dock a Tot a little late, and I wish I had it from the beginning! We are a co-sleeping family, and this has made a huge difference in comfort and peace of mind when sleeping. My daughter loves her Dock a Tot, and has even put herself to sleep in it; which is a life-saver!

The DockATot has been great for us! I sleep better knowing my baby is right next to me and sleeping safely. It's been especially great for trips because it's easy to transport and I don't have to worry about my baby sleeping in an unknown bed or crib. She's in her own little pod at the hotel!

My baby girl was 10 lbs at birth so I was a little worried that this would be too small for her, but I'm really happy I purchased this anyway. The size suggestion are 100% correct in FAQ. If you have a infant under 9mos get the smaller version. It's snug on my daughter but it makes her feel secure and help her sleep more soundly. She's about 15lbs now and 3 mos old and I can absolutely see her using this until she's about 8/9 mos. So, moms with beautifully chunky babies please don't be afraid of getting this!

We bought our Deluxe before we were even discharged from the hospital. Our son wanted to be snuggled up and he just looked so unhappy in the bassinet.... it came on his 3rd or 4th night home and he started sleeping great. Unfortunately, he did outgrow it rather quickly and now at 7months old I will have to do some convincing to get my husband on board with buying the Grand. But now that my son is out of the dock he sleeps awful!! So.... I'm hoping the Grand is in our future. If I'd known my son would outgrow the Deluxe so soon I would have went straight for the Grand.

Love being able to have our babe sleeping safely with us. She has refused to sleep anywhere but next to me since day one and this has been a life saver! She sleeps great in it and it allows us to sleep great too. It so easy to move around the house and give her a snuggly place to nap while I'm doing other things. This is the only thing I've found that is soft enough to bed share with comfortably.

My son had Pyloric Stenosis the first 6 weeks and I bought this to help with keeping him kinda propped up so I put a pillow under it and the bumpers helped keep him in place and comfortable. It was amazing and I passed it on to my sister when he outgrew it. She loves it. I'd recommend it to anyone with a new born sleeping in your bed.

We LOVE our DockATot! We were hesitant on making such a big purchase, but we are so glad we did! We didn't want to co-sleep with our baby girl because of the risks, so we decided to invest in a DockATot for safer co-sleeping. Our girl sleeps for 5+ hours each night. We are glad we took the chance on our DockATot!!

Great for sleeping

This is the BEST for sleeping. Our 6 month old has been in her Docatot since she was born (and swaddled). We bring it anytime we go anywhere. She sleeps great and sleeps throughout the night We tried just putting her in her crib and it would take over an hour to get her to fall asleep. With the docatot, she's asleep in 15 minutes and sleeps throughout the night. This product is a MUST!! She's getting too big for this one and we are purchasing the next size up!

this is all you need when bringing home your new baby! if you are on the fence BUY IT! we take it everywhere with us, especially when we know we may be someplace the baby could fall asleep, grandparents house, friends house... it really changed the way our munchkin slept, just the way you will read about in all the other reviews... he went from a terrible sleeper to a champion! however where we found the most value was that when we travel or when the kiddos stay at grandmas house nothing changes... there are no new smells or new environments because where he lays his head is just like at home, it is like packing up the entire crib to bring for a weekend trip.... it really is amazing! He has slept in his dockatot since he was 3 months old and now is 13 months, we haven't moved up sizes yet because he really like the one he has, and just within the last month it has gotten to small for him.

I debated getting a Dock-a-Tot for the longest time because of the cost which was a little more than our budget. Finally got it when my son was about 3 months old. He was sleeping 2 hours at a time and his first night in the Dock-a-Tot he slept almost 6 hours straight!!! I felt like a new woman the next morning!!! He took all of his naps and slept overnight in the Dock until he was about 8 months. Now we are debating buying the Grand for him. I have heard that some babies didn't like the Dock but my baby sure did!

The dockatot is made of high quality materials. There's no doubt about that. However at 4 months my daughter was absolutely squished in there. I know it's supposed to be snug but her arms had no space and her feet were hanging out. Also, we had major problems with our cover. Taking it off and putting it back on eventually broke one of the zippers right off. Lastly, we had our little girl in the dockatot every day for naps and bed.. and guess what? You can't just take it away and say we're done. It was a NIGHTMARE trying to get her to stop using it.

I would buy it again
March 10, 2017
I bought the doc a tot while sleep deprived in the wee hours and couldn't believe that I had spent that much money on this item. But, it is very well made and we used it all of the time. I still think it is way overpriced for what you are getting, but I felt completely safe letting my son sleep in it, it was so easy to travel with (I would even pack it in a suitcase in carryon!), and he used it so much that it was worth the money spent and I would do it again.
