Great product!
Bought this for use with our infant. Works like a charm. We like the option of raising the "lay down" area so we do not have to continually lean down and in. We do not use the changing platform but when assembling, it did feel sturdy. All in all, great price, great product, great buy!

Good product without the frills
This is exactly what we were looking for. A fairly simple pack n play that is easy to take on the road, but also has the bassinet feature. Its not as fancy as some of the others, but seems to be a little more versatile. Its true what other reviews have said, the diaper changing platform is not very strong at all, it will only work for newborns (probably no more than 10-12 pounds).

Not useful at all
This pack-n-play does not fit through doorways...so you have to disassemble it every time you move it. I can't believe no one commented on that fact. Unless I just have unusually sized doorways? (I think they're pretty standard). The bag it comes in doesn't have handles, so you have to put it in another larger duffle bag of your own if you want to actually travel with it. The mattress isn't comfortable and sags with my 11 pound infant on it. I'm very disappointed with it. Way too bulky and heavy to travel on airplane anywhere. I am going to invest in a smaller, lighter, travel infant bed instead.

Well Designed
The baby just arrived, and as the grammy, I haven't had the opportunity to actually test the Pack 'n Play yet. It's easy to put up and take down, both because of the design and because the instructions are clear. When put away, it needs a bit more than a square foot of floor space, which makes it convenient to store when not in use. When assembled, the bassinet section is large enough to accommodate a toddler. The Pack 'n Play is both sturdy and portable and seems like a good solution for baby care at grammy's house.

Great Item - Depending on Your Circumstances...
The Graco Pack n' Play Playyard is a wonderful item - depending on your circumstances. If you have a two story home, if you travel by car frequently and stay overnight where no crib is available, or if you baby is small to average size, then this item will be quite useful. If you have a one story home, have access to a crib when visiting friends or relatives, or have a baby who weighed at least nine pounds at birth you may have other uses for your nursery dollars.

The bassinet portion of the pack n' play is somewhat small when the changing table has been installed. It works well for newborns or smaller infants; however, if like my grandson, your baby was nine pounds or more at birth, then you will not get much use out of the bassinet. Since that configuration is safe to use only up to fifteen pounds, this equipment feature was only good for the first three months. As a playyard (or playpen, whichever you prefer), I thought this was far to small to be of much use and would not recommend it to anyone who has the extra funds for a regular sized playyard.

The portable crib feature and the changing table addition are two outstanding aspects of this equipment. The pack n' play fold up fairly compactly and can be taken on driving trips when visiting friends or relatives. Because it is familiar to your infant, the disruption he/she feels may be relieved somewhat and you may find it easier to put your child to sleep. The changing table is convenient and is at a comfortable height for most adults. The pockets which are attached to the changing table are somewhat small and one must refill them fairly frequently.

In my opinion, the mobile which comes with the Brentwood is cheap and does not seem to engage an infant. The little teddy bears are too far away for a young baby's vision and the tan color is not vivid so it does not catch an older child's attention. On the other hand, the color scheme is very sophisticated and will coordinate well with homes which have not succumbed to the nursery-colored everything mindset.

I have rated this five stars because we used it in a two story home and it saved a lot of steps. Further, because my daughter will be traveling to visit relatives, this will be handy since none of them have cribs.

One caveat - the Graco sheets for their pack n' plays are overpriced with respect to their quality. I was able to make my own for significantly less. It takes about 1 yard of fleece or flannel which you will find will be softer and of better quality than the Graco product. A 4 inch pocket on each end and hankerchief hemming the long sides works well. Using sale fabric, I found sheets could be made for about 1/4 the cost of the manufacturer's product.
