If you want to have your baby near you at night, the co-sleeper is great. It makes getting in and out of bed a bit of a challenge, but it is nice to be able to look over and see my infant daughter sleeping, or to comfort her back to sleep with a little rocking with my hand if she is not ready to get up. VERY easy to set up and sturdy. My only complaint is the sheet- it shrinks a lot in the wash, gets tangled up because of the velcro, and is not easy to change quickly. Also, replacement sheets are expensive (@$15). Instead, I recommend using a bassinet sheet- they are exactly the right size, are softer, and are around $5.

Definitely love this bassinet. I'm able to nurse and return my newborn to it without getting out of bed. I also like being able to check on her while in bed or if she has her pacifier fall out and needs it put back in. Her Ocean Wonders Aquarium only goes for a couple minutes and then needs to be restarted so that's nice to just lean over also. The bassinet comes with 1 sheet and then we bought additional sheets from BabiesR'Us that fit it just fine.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the cosleeper. After a c-section it made access to my daughter easy,and was great for nursing. At 5 months we are still using it. I also bought the crib tent to keep our cats out. Invaluable.

I purchased the mini co-sleeper for my first child. She slept in it at our bedside until she was 6 months old. I really feel that her being beside me helped us all sleep better. If she woke up and was fussing, I could just reach over and pat her, find her pacifier, etc. without having to get out of bed and walk to the nursery every time. Often I could comfort her before she really got good and awake/upset and I could get her back to sleep faster. At 6months, she was getting too large for it, so I transitioned her to her own crib in the nursery with no problem. The only drawback is that it is not very easy to fold up for travel-I had to get my husband to do it for me every time. BUT, I have yet to find a portable crib that is very easy to fold up (we have a Pack and Play too). When you do get it folded up and put into its carrying case, it doesn't take up that much room. Can be used as a co-sleeper by the parent's bed or as a free-standing bassinet. Overall, I have been pleased and will use it again with my next baby.

We asked for this as a shower idea for our third baby because we are currently renovating our home and with all the construction, the rooms are packed with boxes, leaving little room for a full size crib.
This bed is a must for any one with a small space, nursing, or just wanting their little one close. Being able to roll over, check on the baby, have the baby at hand for late night feedings, and saving on space makes this bed worth every penny. There was no set up...just pull it out of the box, unzip the protective sheath, and lock the joints together! It is narrow enough to fit thru a standard doorway fully opened, portable enough to pack up in the car for trips to grandmas, and functional enough to use in place of a cradle/bassinet.
Not to mention when they grow into the full size crib, this doubles up as a dual deck toy box/storage (toys up tob, blankets and spare bedding under)
I only wish I had this for my first two.....

This was given to us as a present, but I would have never bought it for myself. Here are the problems: 1) we have a platform bed and you cannot shorten the height so it was worthless as a cosleeper. We still tried to use it as a bassinet but...2) the mattress is so thin and uncomfortable our daughter would cry when you put her in it. I tried to put extra padding which worked ok, but still not great. 3)Once she was bigger it would have been nice if this converted to a deeper thing like a pack and play to use in the living room, but the bassinet part is fixed. I would have been happier with a regular pack and play which had a removable bassinet. Ultimately we happily gave it away after about 5 months.

My husband and I bought this because our baby was born right before we would be moving back to the US. We are very happy with it as it makes traveling with a baby a breeze. We never have to worry if the hotel we're in provides cribs, or if they are safe for that matter. We have had it for almost three months now, using it exclusivly, and the only thing wrong is a small tear in the fabric.
I had no trouble setting this up, however I did try it out before the baby came so I wasn't exhausted at the time. I don't think it would have gone the same if I was.
I can't imagine what we would have done without this thing!

The mini co-sleeper is great. I am a mom for the second time and decided to purchase the co-sleeper. I can check on my son without even leaving my bed. This product was easy to set up and we will be using it when we travel.

We absolutely LOVE the co-sleeper, which was a last-minute purchase right before our baby was born. It's so reassuring to be able to look over and see your baby any time of the night, and to have that special time together before moving the baby to her own room. It's great for middle-of-the-night feedings and for soothing the baby without having to pick her up and without you having to get out of bed! In fact, our baby is seven months old and is still sleeping in the co-sleeper. It sets up very easily and folds down nicely for storage.

i love this mini co-sleeper. For my daughter (3 years old) we had a bassinet, but she only slept in it two nites before we moved her to her crib, in her own room. We purchased the mini co sleeper before our son (1 month) was born and it has been a blessing. We have him here in our room so we can keep an eye and an ear on him and when i need to feed i never even have to get out of bed to do so. The co- sleeper takes up practically no space and I have found it very easy to break down and plan to take it with us to Tahoe and to Maui this year. Excellent product.
