ChiccoDash Instant Setup Play Yard, Portable Crib with Removable Bassinet, Playpen for Babies and Toddlers | Charcoal/Grey

I've had it for 6 months now and we've used it daily! This is our 3rd child and probably our 5th Playard/pack n' play. I love that it's greenguard certified which is hard to find outside just a couple high end brands. It's a great competitor to the more expensive ones that pop out instantly and also have a hanging bassinet. It's very sturdy and so easy to pop open and close quickly. The bassinet has some give and movement to it so it's not completely flat and in my opinion newborns are more comfortable with that, we used it for daytime naps and diaper changes downstairs for the first 3 months exclusively. I added a small memory foam mattress on top, but the padding that it comes with is already very cushioned. But I would definitely recommend getting a waterproof mattress protector as the mattress board isn't waterproof. The mattress is on the thinner side so if you want something a bit thicker adding memory foam on top is helpful. My baby sleeps well on it and it works very well for day trips or vacations. This playard is also a good buy larger than the standard ones, so make sure you check that you buy the correct size sheets for the mattress.

This is a sturdy one. And, though not very light to carry around, it is very easy to pack and get into a sedan or hatchback for a trip. I am using it and would buy the same again.

Easy to set up and take down

Very easy to set up!! Love this pac n play! Its a little bigger than the standard one and so much room!

We used this as a travel and day crib for our 3 month old. We also love that he can grow with this and it will serve as multiple functions. The set up is super easy. It’s a simple push down till you hear it lock in place. It’s also lightweight, so it’s easy to move around and carry, but it also feels sturdy. I don’t worry about being too flimsy or breaking down. We do put a crib sheet on the mattress pad, not because it’s not soft enough but just another layer to add for cleaning purposes. Breakdown is as easy as setting it up and packing it in the bag is pretty straightforward. I do have my husband carry it though as I struggle to carry the weight of it. Overall, we absolutely maximize the use of it and love the purchase!

Great for baby safe. Easy to setup and take in vacation

We loved this playard, until today. You see, we have been using this playard in bassinet mode. It worked very well. Looks great, easy set up, sturdy.I decided to move the matress down to the lower, "toddler playard" mode today and the matress does not fit properly in the base. There are huge gaps on all sides where the matress meets the playard frame (where the matress pad should be covering the bottom, instead, the base is exposed). My 5 month old immediately wiggled over to one of these spaces & started nuzzling down into the space. Now that my baby has grown, this product is useless. This is a dangerous product in toddler playard mode. Please, for your little ones safety, do not buy this product unless you only plan to use the bassinet mode. I expected better from Chicco and am horribly disappointed. I will be contacting the manufacturer, but I wanted to put up a warning for other parents first.

Appears to be well made and extremely easy to operate!
