Although this item does not take long to put together, a couple of design features are rather cumbersome. For instance, the play yard mat has velcro strips that you have to feed through the bottom of the nursery center, which for a pregnant lady is difficult because you can't easily bend over the sides of the play yard, nor spend a lot of time laying on the ground trying to feel up through the play yard for the strips. Everything snaps on piece by piece, so whenever you want to move the play yard from one location to another (say, to grandma's house), you have to deconstruct and reconstruct the nursery center. It's not easily packable, but if you're planning on setting it up and hardly ever taking it elsewhere, I think it's a very good, functional product for the price. It offers more than a lot of other items in its class, such as a changing table, organizing compartments, the bassinet, and the play yard itself. Unfortunately the floor of the play yard is pretty hard, not very cushioned, but I suspect putting blankets or something down to soften the floor would fix that concern.

About Baby Trend's customer service. It is highly important that you don't waste time trying to call them! The music box that comes with the nursery center arrived damaged (no fault of Baby Trend I don't think), and I wasted 45 minutes on hold for their customer service department, only to be hung up on. I called back a few days later, and hung up on them after about 20 minutes of waiting on hold. I decided then to just go to their website and submit a customer service claim online. SO EASY! I received an email response the next day saying they would ship a brand new music box free of charge, and to not worry about having to return the old one. Sure enough, I received the music box via fedex about a week later.

This is a great play yard with a sturdy bassinet. My 1 week old son seems very comfortable in the bassinet and the entire thing is sturdy enough for my comfort level! I love the idea of the changing table attachment, but it tilts inward so my baby slides or rolls when trying to change him...we don't even use the changing station because of this! It was easy to assemble and easy to break down. I would suggest it to a friend with the only caution being the changing station.

This was a beautiful play yard. The only thing is that we were expecting to get the color shown on the advertisement (Blue with black & gray). Instead we received a greenish-blue color, almost like a teal but not as bright. I posted my own pictures so people can see what they will really get. In certain lightings the play yard is blue and black, but in reality it's tealish with chocolate brown. It is easy to set up and easy to wheel around the house as well. The canopy part is a little hard to fold up and down. All of the music is cute, but the volume control disappointed me. The lowest setting in the volume control is actually still pretty loud, so I don't even use the higher volume...you would need to have some serious hearing issues if you need to turn the volume on this play yard up past the lowest setting. The vibration feature needs some work, you can't feel the vibration as well unless the vibrating base is positioned close to the baby. The music, vibration, and control buttons runs off a base that hooks onto the play yard. The changing table works well, flips away for storage, but isn't leveled. When I change my son he starts to slide to one side, so that part needs to change. It has an MP3 input, which is cool but I haven't tried it out yet. It has a pretty big side pocket for extra storage, a place store diapers, wipes, and two more pockets for whatever else. We decided to keep the play yard because it still looks nice and sophisticated, our needs are met when it came to keeping our baby safe when we need a break from holding him or to get something done, besides that we live overseas so it would cost way too much to ship it back. When I called Amazon about the issues, they handled my complaint very well and refunded us a discount for the confusion about the product.
