Good but needs improvements
February 3, 2020
Thank you so much to Stellar for allowing us to review this product. It does have a few good features associated with it, but it also had a few things I would recommend changing.
First and foremost, the good qualities of the product. The Bassinets feature of being portable is great. Your able to move the sleeping baby from point a to point b without really disturbing her. So when I wanted to go inside to watch Television i could easily move her without physically having to pick her up. As they always say "Never wake a sleeping baby" and that's exactly what this allowed me to do.
Secondly, it is always good to have a product you can use with your newborn. As long as the baby is swaddled you can rest easy knowing that he/she will be safe and sound in the raised bassinet. You can keep this at any level in your house and easily see where your baby is positioned. The see through netting is great especially for first time parents who get a bit nervous when baby is sleeping.
Thirdly, keeping a product from the time the baby is born up until the time your able to transition your kid into a crib is great. One less product you need to buy and it also is great as the more you use it the more comfortable you are with it. Its lightweight and has the ability of staying out of the way. You can view it as a mini crib for your newborn baby.
Lastly, my two favorite features of the bassinet is the fact that its lightweight and the fact that it comes with a canopy. I like the fact that I can pop it up and down and move it through my house. The canopy is especially usefull as it blocks out any type of light that may be shinning in my house when she is sleeping.
Now, as for the bad associated with the product I would point to the original setup. It took me nearly 40 minutes to set it up. There are a bunch of peices and it just does not come together to easily. I had a very hard time pushing down the button in the middle to open it. Even when I did the sides collapsed. In the end I had to put the bassinet on its side in order to open it up without the sides collapsing. The top of the bassinet was pretty hard to assemble as well. The buttons barley snapped in and the bottom metal bars were not easy to attach. As of now the portable bassinet is sitting on a chair in my dinning room because I am unable to remove the metal bars on the bottom of it to collapse it.
This is a product I would consider setting up at my house and that's about it. I love the portable bassinet part but, taking it on vacation would not be something I would do. It may take time away from my vacation and I would dread taking it apart at the end. I would never imagine giving this to my parents or wife's aunt either as I feel they would get totally upset with the setup.
I hope my review helps and I trust you would understand that with every product their may be initiated issues associated with it. This product is a great idea, but it does need its improvements. Once again thank you for letting me review this product Stellar and I hope in the future you may reach out again for other product reviews.
