How does the canopy open and close? Is it something I can do without waking the baby (is it quiet)? Does it fold over? Zip?

Each side comes up and it zips in the middle. Yes it's quiet, but a zipper is a zipper and can sometimes be loud if you go too fast.

It zips without disturbing baby. My daughter still uses at night and it was the best item I bought for her. You won't go wrong.

It does make a little noise, both flipping the canopy up and zipping it. I bought this thinking it would keep my cat away from the baby, and never ended up zipping it up but twice - the cat is really scared of that baby and wants nothing to do with it.

You can unzip the mesh cover and fold out of the way so dogs can see out if they don't tend to jump out.. It is up off the ground like a child's stroller. It is very light and easy to fold. It is nice having the mesh container space underneath for jackets, water, etc. Our little yorkie likes it.

Hello, It is funny you ask, because I just answered this for someone else. It is incredibly easy to take off whether the Varylight is folded or not. I also found that once you remove the canopy for transportation or storage, the length of the stroller is considerably less and will allow for easier storage. Thanks!

The canopy can bend if you press hard enough on it. It would keep her from poking the baby while you have to pee for sure. I hope the 22 month old does not know how to un-do zippers though!

The way it fits on ours, the zipper is on the top side of the mattress about a half-inch from the edge. It is covered by a fold of fabric though, so it won't touch the baby or anything. It's good because it's easy to zip without having to get your hand down the side of the mattress.

Shirley, It's a very easy tent to put up. I'm 51 and the only issue I have had is when first opening the tent at an event I have a hard time locking the first pin into place. I think it is because it is a new canopy and just tight. I have had this tent now for about 10 shows and it is now becoming easier. If you are using at a show, there is always someone around that can help you lock in the first leg, after that it is very easy. Tear down is just as easy. It's a very nice canopy with a denser fabric. I just waterproofed my canopy last week and was thankful this past weekend during a rain storm as I didn't have any leaks around the seams. I would definitely recommend. Lorie, J Rowe Apparel

The sun shade folds up. The buckle isn't really like a true stroller. It's more like a belt that has the two plastic "D" shapes that the seat belt folds through. It's easy to adjust but kids need help.

Yes. We had no problem opening the middle velcro tab and putting our son's pacifier back in. It will make a little noise opening the velcro, but that wasn't a problem for us. We have been pleased with the canopy. It's not perfect, but for the price we think it was a great purchase.

I am not sure what you mean. It folds up compactly and stores easy. It has the canopy top which you can remove or leave up. My grand baby loves riding in his!!

Yes, but it looks oversized and the canopy drops down to around my daughter's waist leaving her with no visibility. It looks funny and I've gotten a few stares, also it appears too heavy for the stroller and hard to manage on an umbrella stroller when folded up, it repeatedly falls back down. I suppose it's good when your kid is sleeping, but once they wake up, they like to see and you're better off just taking the shade off completely.

It is not completely removable, but it does fold pretty flat if you don't want to have it covering your child. The plastic rain cover can be removed by a zipper.

You can, but I didn't as well. I actually made a cover for mine. I like having the pad go all the way to the corner. It's not as horrible as some of the reviewers make it out to be. Babies usually aren't on there for more than 10 minutes, it's not like it has to be super comfy so they can nap up there...

Hello hope all is well. I bought this for my then 15 month old boy. Now is 24 month old and still fit nicely. Only one thing with the front tray is to not use lot of clothing that can squish the legs. If is a big boy I suggest to not put the tray but to snack. Its not heavy and to fold it needs practice but in general it worth the price. Two position for child to sleep and canopy that doesnt bother him at all.

It is a good crib...I never used it for traveling. When we did fold it up when we were done with it at " Nana's house " it took a bit of time.

It's just like a regular tent, you can zip the windows open or closed. We use this tent on our van and it's great!

Very easy, it folds up while connected. I have no trouble putting mine away after baby goes to sleep

I love this stroller for my 1 year old twins. You don't have to remove anything to fold it up just fold the canopies in. It folds in about 3-5 seconds. The only thing with this one is the baskets are kinda small if you have a big diaper bag.
