Pack 'n Play Rock 'n Grow Playard
Product Details
Web ID: 18113610Not what I wanted
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I recently purchased the Graco Pack 'n Play, thinking it would be a convenient all-in-one solution for my little one. While the overall build quality seemed good and it was relatively easy to set up, I was quite disappointed to discover that the elevated portion, which looks like a bassinet, is actually not intended for infant sleeping. This was a major letdown as a bassinet was one of the key features I was looking for. It's a bit misleading, as the design strongly suggests a bassinet function. However, upon closer inspection of the manual, it became clear that this higher level is only for diaper changing or play. This lack of a true bassinet made the Pack 'n Play less versatile for my needs, especially for those early months when having baby close by in a raised sleeping space is so helpful. Ultimately, I ended up returning this model and opting for the Graco Dream 'n Play instead, which does include a proper bassinet. While the standard Graco Pack 'n Play seems like a decent playard, potential buyers should be aware that it lacks a dedicated sleeping bassinet feature. If a bassinet is a must-have for you, I'd recommend looking at other Graco models like the Dream 'n Play or ensuring the specific Pack 'n Play you choose explicitly states it includes a sleeping bassinet.

Uncomfortable with No Options Due to Odd Size
I bought this for my grandchild to be comfortable when staying with me. The mattress is hard as a rock and the dimensions are not standard playard size so there is no mattress pad, topper, or even decent sheets for this product. Creating a makeshift mattress pad or topper would be unsafe. I deeply regret buying this.

Love the chair only
This is where Graco is messing up. Why are you over engineering everything? The seat is 5 stars, amazing, great job! Why does it need to attach to a pack n play? Why can’t you sell this seat stand alone without the awkward top piece to attach to the pack n play? You sell one stand alone type bouncer chair with awful reviews bc you tried to turn it into a jumper. The pack n play crib portion is also annoying on this product bc it’s smaller and non standard to accommodate the seat. Stop trying to make all your products into “multi use”, you are missing the mark. Don’t even get me started on your swings.

Good Pick, Better GRACO options....though
Moving with a baby of few months old was tough but the portable pack n play made it easier. After looking at the displays of different pack n plays, I picked this one because it looked more durable. Sadly, this product was recalled for the inverted bassinet being a safety risk for babies. Mini organizer was very nice to have available on the side of the changing pad. It lasted me until baby out grew it by age of 2. Around that same time, I noticed that the playard was very uncomfortable. Next time I will buy a soft cushion mat with fitting measurements to increase baby's comfort. Don't get me wrong, I found it very versatile for baby to sleep in as growing and it was worth my money. However, I would only purchase the Graco Pack n Play On The Go Playard because the bassinet and changing pad was dysfunctional.

Great play pen; don’t recommend as a travel crib
Easy to setup and breakdown. Durable. Handy compartments. Lightweight and compact enough for car travel. Downside is no baby wants to sleep on the hard as rock “mattress” pad and there’s no safe replacement out there for this size pack n play. I don’t recommend trying to use as a travel crib. Great as a play pen though.

FIRST TIME MOM
Thought I loved this….but I was wrong. Where in the actual heck do you find a mattress that isn’t a sheet of paper to fit this thing?! Super frustrated that this is smaller than your average pack n play so NO mattress’ can fit. I’m now going to have to buy a new pack n play to travel with my daughter.
