Bassinets!

Question

For moms who have already had a baby, do you have a favorite bassinet? I’m loving the look of Anzy Home and Design Dua but I don’t know if they’re just cute or if they work well too.  
My personal preferences:
#1 Safety
#2 Style
#3 Functionality
Can’t wait to hear from you all!

Answer

I learned from my first that a bassinet is a waste of money. For my second I got a pack and play with a bassinet attachment.
I needed to buy a pack and play for travel anyways with my first so instead of having 2 different items I have one all in one which was a good thing because my daughter is 2.5 months and would have already outgrown the bassinet.

Answer

I loved the Halo Swivel Sleeper! It swivels right up to your bed and the side bends down (and automatically goes back up so you don't have to worry about forgetting) so you can easily grab baby, then put them back without leaving bed and then you can push it back away so it's the safe distance away from your bed. It's also nice that it swivels so you can move it to get in and out of bed without having to crawl out of bed awkwardly which is no fun while healing from having the baby.

Answer

This is it, there's tons of versions in lots of brands though.

Answer

That other link was broken, here's the working link. It's an updated model than what I have. And note the picture with the parents sleeping and the sleeper is over the bed is not safe. I believe it's about a foot that the bassinet needs to be away from the bed to avoid any covers, sheets, pillows from parents bed interfering and suffocating baby.

Answer

I have this exact bassinet and I’ve loved it for my 3rd baby so far these last 2 months 😊 My favorite features include the adjustable heights and sliding positions, complete mesh sides, and it has an extra large storage basket. Aesthetically it’s beautiful and my baby sleeps comfortably in this as well. It’s worked amazing and I love it for for my 3rd baby now, but a bassinet was a complete waste for my first two kids (they completely hated it lol) Every baby is different but I don’t think you could go wrong with trying out the Maxi Cosi Iora bassinet. 🤞

Answer

I love this one

Answer

This one. Cheaper than similar options, one side can unzip if you like the bassinet to "attach" to the side of the bed (also includes a strap to go around the mattress if you choose to do this). Height is adjustable. Ive used it with 2 kids and it still works like new. Only downside is that the mattress is a tad thin and card-board-like, but baby is supposed to have a firm mattress so i guess its not a big deal

I personally like this one
