Hi-Tech Bassinet Customizable for LO
February 24, 2020
The Move 'n Soothe Bassinet has so many features that babies love, it takes a little while to even find the right combination, and then there are options when the status quo doesn't work anymore. We received the bassinet gratis as a member of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and so far, this LO#2 is sleeping FAR better than LO#1.
Putting the bassinet together was quite easy. Some of the instructions are somewhat confusing, but overall (with 2 people), we were done with the project and were on to testing the features in under 30 minutes. The color scheme is really nice: gray and cream easily goes into any room, including our bedroom, where the bassinet lives. The mesh sides are nice, giving us piece of mind that if LO were to roll into a side she can breathe, that sufficient air circulates through the bed, and I can see LO's position in the bassinet when I'm laying in bed as well. The mattress seems comfortable, and is easy to wash.
Regarding the soothing features, we turn on the white noise function while LO is nursing before bed, and it knocks her out at the end of the session. Some nights just the white noise is enough, but on others, she likes the high vibration function with it. The rocking is also soothing for a while, but we have found that keeps our LO up. Other babies will surely love the function though. It is nice to be able to dim the lighting on the bassinet, but the lighting is only on the buttons on the outside of the bed. If there were a way to project more light into the bassinet, that may be a nice add. For now, we turn a night light on and face it toward the bassinet. LO has not shown a preference for the music or nature sounds yet, but it is great to have those options built into the bassinet, and not have to buy a separate sound machine to introduce some variety.
Overall, this bassinet has a great mix of features that can replace or negate the need for other baby items, such as a swing and sound machine. We are thrilled, and everyone seems to be sleeping better by being able to customize a sleep routine that will fits LO's preferences.
