3 out of 5 stars a little dissapointed   October 6, 2008
Yes, this bassinet is beautiful and the nature sounds are great. Unfortunately the motor that runs the glider is not so great! For the price I am very surprised that Fisher Price did not address this. In the manual it says the bassinet has to be on a level surface to avoid the gliding noises. Nothing has stopped the noises so far!


3 out of 5 stars Beautiful but noisy!   October 3, 2008
While I love the look of this product, it is extremely noisy when it is not gliding (though that is a little noisy too). My daughter is an active sleeper and each time she moves it causes the bassinet to shake, make noise, and many times wake her from her sleep! The last thing you want your bassinet to do is wake up your sleeping baby! I would suggest getting something more stationary to other parents.


1 out of 5 stars Noisy and small   September 29, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The product is very small. My 6LB newborn almost filled the entire bed area. The padding that they gave looked like a deflated pillow instead of a comfortable cozy environment for a baby. In addition the rocking motion was the most annoying sound short of nails on a chalk board. I could barely sleep myself with it on let alone my child. Unless Zen is a far eastern word for noisy, this is a poor adjective for this product. I would just as soon by an inexspensive rocker and put her to sleep that way. It was a very poor investment and one that I would not recommend anyone else make.


4 out of 5 stars Overall very pleased   September 17, 2008
We ordered this bassinet for our daughter to keep her in our bedroom during the nighttime, so I don't have to climb up and down the stairs. Overall, I am very pleased with the product.

Pros: the coloring and style is very pretty, and construction seems sturdy. It is cozy for smaller babies.

Cons: as mentioned by other reviewers, the mattress is very flimsy and does smell terrible. I tried to air it out before use, but it still smells. The rocking/gliding motion makes a VERY annoying sound, like a grinding. Also, it does not have a timer, so there is no way to set how long it will glide for. There are 3 settings for sound; the womb noises, which I find less annoying during the night than actual music, does not play for very long (maybe 10 minutes?) and when the sound goes off, so does the rocking. So basically by the time I get back in bed and get comfortable, the rocking stops, the baby wakes up, and I have to pick her up again. If set for the music, it does rock for much longer.

Overall I do not dislike the bassinet compared to the other ones on the market which aren't as pretty, but I do think the price tag is steep for something they outgrow quickly that has such a flimsy mattress. I would buy this product again.



3 out of 5 stars dissapointed   September 7, 2008
Although this bassinet is beautiful and well built we are very dissapointed with how loud the motor on it is. When we use the rocking feature the motor is so loud and then when the rocking motion stops after a few minutes it wakes the baby up. I wish you could choose to let it run continuoisly until you choose to turn it off.
