HALO Baby Flex BassiNest, Adjustable Travel Bassinet, Easy Folding, Lightweight with Mattress and Carrying Bag, Morning Mist

We had a Halo swivel bassinet for our baby. We bought this one because the swivel bassinet doesn’t break down and we needed to travel over the summer.This was perfect!! It s lightweight, breaks down easily, and the carrying bag is easy to transport.We decided that we didn’t even need the swivel feature on our other bassinet so we’re selling that one and using this one as our at home bassinet as well as our travel bassinet for the next baby that comes along.Definitely worth the $!Note: it is firm, which is what you want for a baby. However, we laid down a blanket for our daughter and tucked the edges in under the mattress. She was physically unable to untuck the blanket and she wasn’t rolling yet so it was fine.Just an idea if you get this and it feels too firm. But of course, if baby is rolling or is strong enough to pull the blanket loose, you should use nothing more than a fitted sheet. Just to be safe!

I have an older model halo at home but it is too bulky to travel and would be too big for the room at my parents’. I ordered this for my baby and could not be happier with it. My husband assembled it quickly and without complaint. It is sturdy. The mesh sides are important for me and baby. I also like how it can slide on top of the bed w the drop down side for easy access to the baby for nursing.The only thing i miss between this one and the one at home is the side pockets (for diapers wipes) but i am not sure if the other halos are still made with that feature.You do need to buy sheets separately. I just brought my spares from home.I haven't packed it up to travel yet but if i do i will try and update.I thought the price was reasonable for the product.

This is my third baby and my third bassinet. If I had just bought this one the first time, I would have kept it for all three. This fits with ease over the side of my bed making it easy to reach in and grab him when he needs me or to just check in on him. The breathability is great and makes me feel comfortable about him sleeping independently. Its functionality and quality are both great and it is sturdy enough to stand alone.

The most annoying thing to put together. The directions were not exactly helpful. Also, it doesn't fit through the doorway with the legs on, so if you ever move it to a new room you have to take it halfway apart. Other than that, we love it. It's tall enough for my bed when other bassinets are never tall enough. I don't have to get all the way up to attend to my baby, which is so nice. Great price too compared to some other brands.

We bought this for our holiday travel with our newborn. The flexible sides allowed us to easily pick her up and care for her in the middle of the night. It was easy to assemble and comes with a travel bag to keep it all together. Originally we were just going to use the Dream On Me bassinet, but having the bedside option to easily be able to care for our daughter was necessary. Highly recommend.

Bought this for a trip I was taking with my 4mo. Had it delivered to my parents house. It seemed uneven and not steady as soon as we put it together. First night he slept in it, I laid him down and 2 hours later I came back to bed and he was on his side smooshed into the side that was not supported by the legs. I didn’t think much of it as he was getting close to rolling. I moved him back to the center and tried to sleep myself. He started to make some noise and when I looked back at him he was in the same smooshed spot. It was time for a feeding and when I flipped the light on I could clearly see the tilt of the bassinet. To get thru the night I ended up packing some blankets under the bottom of the bassinet and on top of my bed to give it support and to keep him center in the middle. I did not sleep the rest of the night, terrified he would suffocate in the side. Next morning immediately went out and bought a replacement from a different brand to use.This bassinet would only be safe if the bed it is hovering over is the perfect height to keep the bassinet level and supported. Do not recommend.

So great, I bought 2! The other model has legs that I can see new moms tripping over in the middle of the night. This slides under your bed and can adjust so baby is at eye level with you.We had the snoo and thank goodness I borrowed from a friend. I’d hate to spend thousands when this product is a fraction of the price and so much better!

Bought this for c section recovery for the drop side so I could nurse and bed share safely. There's only 2 height option to choose. If you have a tall bed this should work for you. I do not. The lowest setting is about 22 inches from the bottom of the "mattress" to the floor. (I could not find those measurements anywhere before purchasing). It's about 4 inches too high for my bed. I struggled for over an hour to get the cover and legs to snap in. My husband didn't have a problem assembling, but he is taller then me and has larger hands. Compared to our crib mattress this mattress is unnecessarily thin and cheap piece of foam. Babes head left an indent in mattress after 1 night. After a few weeks of use left a flat head on baby, which would happen from back sleeping anyway, but I feel the pad being as hard as it is made it worse. At 3 months, my baby's weight caused the bed to become lopsided. You also must apply enough weight to use the drop sides, which may also factor into the lopsided-ness. Disappointed as it should have worked for at least 5 months. I feel this is a defect in the product. Like most Baby products it's a bit overpriced for what it is.Pros, it's pretty minimal looking without a lot of unnecessary junk all over it. It does slide easily on my hard floor away from the bed. I like that I could gently shake it back and forth to comfort baby.If your bed is tall enough and you can use your bed to support the other side of the bassinet bed you may get longevity of of it.
