If the mattress is at the lowest setting, would a 5 foot tall person have difficulty reaching down for a reclining baby?

Maybe a little, but not any more trouble than you'd have with any other crib. I'm 5" tall, and I have more trouble placing my baby in the crib than getting her out. I think getting a low footstool would help.

It is probably too low. I have not measured from floor to upper edge of mattress, because some creepy Amazon algorithm contacted me out of the blue to answer this question and I am therefore not invested. But it is definitely low. An infirm person would need assistance. A solution might be to provide that assistance.

You'd have to remove the legs (feet of the crib) but you won't then be gaining any ground, perhaps just an inch or two since at the lowest position mattress is at the bottom.

I'm also short and it's ok on the lower back. I think I may have rolled up a towel to help out. It has a great recline to fall asleep in.

It actually reclines pretty low, should be good enough for newborn. Keep in mind, though, you have to use both hands to recline.

Not quite that low even for me at 5'4". It could reach higher at the shoulder level though by adjusting the whole thing up a little. The only adjustment is really horizontal, for a wider area but not up and down.Good luck.

That is a good question as I am 5'7". But I feel that it is low profile and would be easy for a petite woman to lean over to get little one out. I have to say it is much easier to get my son out of this crib than my other crib that was much taller. I would think this would be great for a petite mom. But I would also wait to see if someone gets back to you that is actually petite!

You can set the mattress on the high level for a younger baby and set it lower for a toddler. I just LOVE this crib for my grandchildren!!!

19.5 inches in highest position, 5 inches if crib was in the lowest position.

No, Mine is set at the lowest setting for my 5'-9" frame. It has 3" of adjustment but that is only adjustment for taller people.

It is safe and comfortable for the baby to sleep on the bottom. I'm 5' tall and I just had a bit of a problem reaching the bottom...not much, but a little. My back is in pretty good shape so it didn't hurt my back, that will depend on you. Sorry I can't be more specific. Hope you love the pack n play!

Depending on the height and size. With a thick mattress, it may be a bit high.

What is your definition of low? I am 5 ft 2 and when kneeling down, I was able to rock the baby comfortably.

I'm 5'2" and I don't have a problem with it and the seat isn't even on it's lowest adjustment, so I wouldn't think you would have a problem. :)

Maybe if you are really short, otherwise you will be working hunched over, or from the floor. It's only 5' high.

I am short so I like that this crib is shorter so I don't have to lean over as far. The mattress can also be lowered 3 different levels as baby grows . Remember that crib mattresses are a standard size so I don't understand why people are saying the crib is small. It's lower profile for sure in its simplicity but the sleeping space is the same as any other crib.

Yes, and easily. Our son is not very large and his feet touch on the lowest setting.
