This Playard is pretty darn adorable. I have mine set up in my living room.
I was hoping that one of the little animals in the mobile was the polar bear, like how it shows on some of the ads. The box even has the polar bear being one of the animals, but the instructions and some other photos show the crocodile. Even so, I love the playard. The changing table has to be taken out every time you use it. So, you have to find a place for it when baby's in the bassinet.
Also, I tried a quilted travel yard sheet by Graco, the standard size, but it created a bubble between the sheet and padding. So, then I tried a regular travel yard sheet and it worked a lot better. Too bad Precious Planet doesn't make the sheets for this.
This product was easy to put together and you'll have to remember to break it down correctly before taking it on the go.
Overall, I really love this product, the colors, the practicality and its Precious Planet :)

I put together this playard yesterday and haven't started using it yet, but I'm already a bit disappointed. I had the Rainforest collection playard for my older child, which had been recalled over a year ago. I loved everything about it. So when this Precious collection playard became available, I gladly bought it for my soon to be born second child, thinking that these would be essentially the same. The first annoying thing for me about this playard is that the picture on the mesh is only on one side and so is the attachment for the diaper stacker. The way I need to position the playard in my living room ends up having the picture towards the wall (I need the changing table and hence the diaper stacker on my right), which makes the playard a lot less attractive. Second, I'm not crazy about the way the changing table needs to be fitted. The Rainforest playard had little plastic things into which the changing table clicked. With this playard, I'm afraid at some point the fabric on the playard will start tearing if the changing table needs to be removed frequently.
Lastly, I only today realized that the mobile is not battery operated. My son really loved the lights and melodies on his Rainforest playard. I'll have to see if I can use it on this one. All in all, I'm a bit disappointed that Fisher-Price decided to cut corners on this product while increasing its price from the previous model.

I purchased the Precious Planets Play Yard from Amazon.com and it arrived September 26th, 2009. It was easy to put together and the colors are bright, just like the other Precious Planets products. It is adorable, but, I wish they had the sheets to match. Any of the sheets that I have found so far are not the same shade of yellow, blue & even white in the play yard. Hopefully, Fisher Price will make the sheets available in the near future. I do highly recommend this play yard. It is colorful, well built, & easy to assemble.

We are so happy with our Fisher Price Play Yard. Everything we have bought from Amazon for our Granddaughter has been Fisher Price (brand, and have worked out great.

I had bought the Rainforest play yard for my daughter and never knew it was recalled but it always broke so we wanted to get one for my son to replace it. I got it and it was just what I wanted. I like that you can see the baby from all sides of this play yard. Easy to open, easy to close. Glad we will have this for another 3 years!

We travel a lot (family lives in other states). So this is perfect for a bassinet and changing table while he's young. When he's older he can still sleep in this or play in it. Love the bright colors for baby.

Very nice play yard. It was easy to assemble and very cute. Hopefully my little boy will like it when he arrives, his sister sure does. I will probably have to buy more padding for the mat because it is a little to firm for a newborn but other than that...I really like it :-).

PROS:

This play yard is pretty cool ... I can easily move this from one room to another and works as desired.

CONS
Width is little less so my 2 year old can actually grab the hold of my 2 month old even though we keep the baby all the way in corner.
2. The attached toy that comes with play yard is not quite sturdy so even with slightest jerk it falls so we most of the time take it off.


On the Whole I am really impressed with this and would recommend this

We bought this to use at my Mother-in-Law's house so we don't have to take the one from our house (different brand). I love this play yard. The standard sheets (27x39) fit this much better than the one at my house because it's slightly larger than mine. The sheet goes on great and I don't have to tuck any extra material under the mat. It has a nice organizer on one side and a cute pattern on the front. I think the pattern is supposed to act as a shade from the light because there's no piece of material that covers the front, but I can't tell. Also, at least one of the sides doesn't have mesh, but it may be both the left and the right that are solid (I can't remember). There's a mobile that can be placed in one of two spots on the front or two spots on the back. The only downside is the mobile doesn't spin unless you move it by hand; I wish it had a motor. We haven't used the changing table, but it seems sturdy. The mat is also sturdy- it doesn't sag, and it's easy to set up and take down.

Overall, I love this play yard. I love the bright colors and it's a perfect size and build.

I have used the play yard for about 7 months now and it has been great. The changing table has saved our backs. My husband and I are very tall and the changing table is the perfect height and size for changing our son. The colors are also great. It is very cheap for the quality and usefullness!!
