 - Exactly what we neededThis large pack 'n play is exactly what we were looking for. We wanted a large area for playing with the set up ease and portability of a pack 'n play. Our 8 month old plays with the toys on the sides and doesn't mind being placed inside while I get things done. Rating: - Truly spacious, portable and fun!I just bought this to leave at out-of-town relatives house for a place for my one-year old to sleep and play. We just came back from an extended trip and I am 100% pleased with this purchase! It was so easy to assemble (and I am one of the least handy people on the planet) and fold up. We moved it to several different homes and hotel rooms over the course of a week-long trip and took only a few minutes. My son LOVED it - comes with 4 built in toys and the play space is so huge. It actually made me resent the regular playard we keep at home - I may have to upgrade. The one wrinkle is that finding sheets to fit. We used regular crib sheets and made them work. Rating: - Great Size Pack 'n PlayI bought the Bug's Quilt Playard for our grandson. He is six months old and loves it. He plays with the butterflies and other bugs on the sides. This is larger than most and reminds me of the play pens that we used for our own children. The bright colors are also a plus. It is easy to fold and carry from house to house. I love this and am buying a second one for my daughter. Rating:  - Great product- There should be more like itWe originally bought this because we wanted to leave a pack 'n play at the grandparents' house for our 1 year old to use as a play pen/sleeper because buying an extra one has become cheaper than paying to stow this kind of thing on an airplane these days. We ended up liking it so much that we took it back home with us. Now we're using it as an everyday playpen, and are probably going to buy another one just like it to send back up to the grandparents. Pros- The biggest factor is that it is much bigger than I expected it to be, but not so big that it can't be used in just about everyplace you'd want to have a pack'n'play. Our daughter can walk around in it much more freely than a regular p'n'p, and she has plenty of room for her toys. There are 4 toys/distractions- one on each side. They're nothing spectacular, but it is nice to have them there when you're travelling and can't bring many other toys. Despite the larger size when open, it isn't that much bigger than a regular p'n'p when folded down for storage. Cons- The material is lighter/thinner than other p'n'ps by the same manufacturer, and so doesn't seem as durable. The bottom panel doesn't lay flat- it dips toward the center, and the padding is kind of thin. I don't think that I'd be comfortable putting an infant in this because they might have trouble rolling out of the dip in the middle. I haven't been able to find sheets designed for this model. All in all, this is a great prodcuct for what we need and I wish there were more like it to choose from. Rating: - Easily PortableThe playpen is a sizable unit for one that wraps up so neatly. Its colorful quilt lining and 3-D attachments to the mesh siding are a real plus. It would do for a nap-time bed while providing more play space than the usual port-a-crib. The unit takes up about the same amount of space when packed, so no need for two units where one will do. Save the space for all the other paraphernalia.
