Graco Pack 'N Play with Newborn Napper Elite, Vance

Graco Pack 'N Play with Newborn Napper Elite, VanceThis is a great product for me as I'm wanting my baby as close to me as possible through the night, but I don't have a lot of room for changing. I needed a little "station" of baby stuff all in one place. Other parents might not need that, but it's ideal for me.

It's basically like every other pack and play Graco makes, except this one doesn't have a vomit-inducing print that the baby won't ever understand anyway. It's a simple print that's sand and stone colored. It's the same model as the BRU Elefante(sp?) P&P, but again, not as vomit-inducing.

The newborn napper is highly recommended because it puts the baby at somewhat of an incline which is good if baby has digestion problems. It also has a 15 lb limit weight capacity, as does the bassinet.

I got it right away, put it together myself in 40 minutes (38 weeks pregnant) and it's reasonably light and has wheels. What more could you want?

I had specific needs to meet for this purchase. I needed 1. A changing table since space is limited in the baby's room. 2. Storage for the supplies since, you guessed it space is limited in the baby's room. 3. Wheels I am not that big and I did not want to lug around a heavy, awkward cube around my house like I did 12 years a go with a cheap play pen someone bought me when I had my first child in my 20's. 4. Bassinet Since space is limited and we did not want to put up the big crib yet, we are using this as the baby's bed for now till he gets a little bigger and we are forced to use the big crib. 5. Newborn Napper is just a bonus. I didnt plan on using this, but I do set the baby in it while Im in the room putting clothes away and folding diapers, which take a while to fold and I dont want to take the changing table off to get to the bassinet.

I reviewed over 100 play pens / pack n plays / what ever they call them these days. I chose this one because some of the others I checked out the people said the changing table was wobbly or it tilted down into the unit and they were dissatisfied with that. (Well, I guess I would be too) This one was stated as not doing this because it is located on the end and not the side of the unit and it has more stability. That is the number 1 selling point for me! It is nice and does not. The storage is nice, not what I was expecting. Its a soft sided storage and the "shelves" are not really deep, so stuff falls out and it kind of sags down. I am 100% happy with the assembly. My 6 year old and I put it together in about an hour. We stuck to the step by step instructions, since we used it as a learning tool and she read and decided what we to do next with the words and pictures. If I would have been without her, I would have had it together in maybe 20 min!

I am most dissatisfied with the colors. They are nice and not ugly, but by looking at the picture, it APPEARS black and white with a "snowflake" type design. I thought it would match some of the other items we had. I read the description and it said dark grey, cream and taupe. I was hoping it was close to the grey and white, but it was not. Its still a nice pattern and color, but not EXACTLY what I was looking for.

OVERALL Not big issues that would prevent me from buying it again if I had to. The price was higher than some others, Im not sure why? But to stick to the NEEDS I had to meet this was the type of cash I had to spend.

Our infant has LOVED the napper ever since we brought him home. It is very soft and sturdy and cradles him right in place for hours! The changing table is also sturdy and has a soft pad for the baby to lay on. The unit folds up nicely if needed but the napper and changing table do not fold out of the way of the play yard underneath, but it does create room for storage until you take them off. The storage this offers is worth the price alone!

This pac and play was given to me as a gift from family. It is actually the second pac and play that I have used. (My first one was given to me seven years ago for my first child). I was impressed right away after taking it out of the box. The mattress is very cushy and the material is soft. I love the napper! It is so snuggly and the way that it is made wants you to put your little one in it. The storage space is not exaggerated. It is as spacious as is looks. The one problem I did have was the instructions were not in the box. Even without the instructions, I was able to put it together in about 30 minutes and I am almost 8 months pregnant! I can't wait to use it and I would recommend it to everyone!!!

This is my 3rd baby but first pack n play. I reasearched extensively before purchasing. Although my son isn't due for another 10 weeks, I love it so far. It was easy to put together. It has PLENTY of storage space for all baby's needs. And I love having a changer, newborn napper, & basinet with portability so it can be right beside my bed or in the kitchen while I cook. I'm very excited to use it when my son arrives!
