I bought this item and have loved it! It's easy to use and wonderful when you want to keep baby close and the night light is awesome. I could pack it up and go to my friends/family and have a bed for my baby to sleep in. The mesh sides let airflow and the plastic sides are firm to protect the baby. I love the fact I can remove the mattress & cover to clean. I highly recommend this product!

Glad to find a product that can keep baby in the right sleeping position. Just heard from a woman who had a nephew die at 2-1/2 months from SIDS. Ease of use is great. The light is a plus. Greatful Grandma in Washington State

Good and safe baby bed. Can be put on parents bed. Only problem: I had to get the baby out for breastfeed. The sides do not band-over. That's unfortunate!

My husband and I had this when our daughter was born. It was nice to have especially when we wanted to be lazy on the weekends. We'd grab her out of her room and lay her with us. I agree though it should have a removeable end. My daughter was 20 3/4" tall at birth so she out grew it in a few months, but overall it was nice in the beginning.

This was a great gift.With a c-section it made it easier to feed and chek on my newborn. only thing is that with a queen bed the sleeper does take up alot of space.but overall i was very pleased with it and hope to use til my baby grows out of it

I got this product for so the baby can sleep in bed with me and my husband or my 4 y/o. I do not have to worry about anyone rolling over on him or throwing covers over his face. Probably only useful for a couple of months, cheaper and takes up less room than a co-sleeper.

Absolutely love this product. My parents purchased this product for me shortly after the birth of my baby girl. It is definitely worth it. A must have for me and my family. It was so convenient to be able to set it up anywhere for the baby to sleep in (the couch, the bed, etc). My baby is nearing 4 months old and we are still using this product. She was diagnosed with acid reflux and can not be placed lying flat. We have since used it in the bassinet, slightly elevated with a rolled towel underneath the bottom. It keeps our lil one at about a 45 degree angle while she sleeps helping to alleviate the acid reflux issues. Great product, highly reccomend.

Review 10 for The First Years Close and Secure Sleeper
Great concept but....,

I love the concept of this sleeper, but its not made to last very long. I bought this for my 2month old son whom I decided to co-sleep with. Daddy is a sound sleeper and I was scared he might roll over on him so we got this for peace of mind. We never got to really use it, he fell asleep in it and cried about 20 min. later cause he was just to big for it. He is any average size 2 month old and just didnt fit in it. I wish they would have thought to make it a little bigger so the baby could sleep in it longer.

I had first bought this product in 2005 for our first child and loved it. You did not have to go far at all when checking on the baby as it was right there in bed with us. Oustanding product for traveling, just fold and carry(not heavy at all, when folded has about the size of a diaper bag). Easy to set up and wash. Used it again in 2007 when had our second child, battery for night light still going and will use it again in about a week for our third child. Pulled it out of the closet, night light still works. The only thing is that both babies were only able to use it for about 3 months. I used the burp cloths as sheets and it worked perfect. Great product. Love it!

this is a very good product, i defintely recommend it to all mothers who are alittle nervous about putting there babies in the crib to soon or just like the convience of your baby sleeping with you.. my son and I both had our own space at night to sleep. and it allowed him to transition very well to the bassinet and then the crib.. it's a great product, but being that babies grow very quickly it could have been longer or maybe a little cheaper.. i was only able to use it for 7 wks and it was the same price as the bassinet.

This is great to use when traveling. It's much easier than taking a playpen or something when your baby is small. It folds up and can be carried easily, and the nightlight works well.

We bought this for our newborn, but returned it after 2 nights because it just didn't work for us. We have a queen bed and the co-sleeper was just too big for us to feel comfortable. Our son also slid down the "slope" throughout the night--which worried me. If you have a king sized bed, this may be worth it....but the slipping thing is really what caused me to return it.

I got this cause I live in an apartment and knew my son would have to share my partner's and my bedroom. We haven't had time to put his crib up yet and have a playard that he sleeps in. This is in the playyard and my son has no problems sleeping in it. I love the light on it as well as I can turn it on to check on him while he sleeps. Only downfall is at 4 months he is starting to outgrow it. I wish the foot wedge could be removed or made so it can be pulled out for added lenght.
