While they do not sell sheets for the bassinet, once you order the system you can go to Graco's website and order replacement bassinet covers that come with replacement mattress/pads. The cost is $10 for each replacement cover (that comes with the replacement pad) so it isn't wildly more pricey than a set of sheets. You need the model number and date of manufacture so you need to get the system before you can order the replacement parts. We plan just to wash the replacement covers since there are no sheets for this bassinet. As I understand it - it is not safe to put on anything but a fitted sheet that fully fits the particular bassinet so it doesn't seem like a good idea to put a sheet in this bassinet.

I bought the suggested mattress below and the fitted sheet. Then I just swaddle him in the bassinet . Works well. Love all 3 items I bought off here

We use(d) it for our twins! We used the bassinet part for about 5 months when the twins slept in our room at night. After that, we moved them to the nursery to their cribs for night sleep. When they got too big for the bassinet part, we took that out and one twin still sleeps in it for naptime in a different room (if we put both in their cribs for nap they will play and keep each other awake!). It was a staple for us.

This is kind of late, but for anyone else looking for replacement mattress covers or mattress pads for the 5 in 1 Sleep System, just go to The Learning Curve which is The First Years' website. They have a shop for replacement parts for their products found here: http://shop.learningcurve.com/category/Replacement+Parts/Sleep/p1?navState=01

I purchased the extra mattress that is about 3" thick and cost about $39. I didn't want my "little dolly" to sleep on the hard playard mattress that come with the Pack 'N Play. (I purchased it after I received the Pack 'N Play.) It will be okay for her in future when she is old enough to play but for sleeping I wouldn't want to sleep on a hard board with very little cushion. My granddaughter was past the bassinet stage when she came; however, I did get the pads and would have used them. The bassinet cover isn't that easy to remove. I just viewed Mark's answer and the mattress that I bought would cause no suffocation hazard. It is firm and my granddaughter had no problem with it.

Uppababy sells extra sheets for the bassinet (organic cotton) that fit perfectly. Just don't put them in the dryer.

As posted by others, the only sheet that works is the Stokke sheet. Fortunately, one comes with it, but replacement sheets are expensive. The mattress is not a typical bassinet shape or size. Despite the sheet, This is a great product

We use twin size sheets even tho they are a little long and if u get ones with a tight elastic at the head and foot, u'll be happier with the outcome. Haven't tried to buy an extra cover so don't know if they are available.

You can just use one pad if you want, but both will fit in a bassinet. I used both in a bassinet because the mattress was so thin that my little one was on a weird angle if I only used one

It comes with a mattress for the bassinet. You wouldn't need to buy another one. It's a beauitiful bassinet. You can't go wrong with Delta.

I just used the sheet it came with! But I'm sure a standard bassinet sheet would work. It's a thin-ish piece of foam.

For assembly? No. It has everything you need for the initial build. I would recommend buying some other sheets, standard bassinet sheets will work even if you have to tuck in some loose parts, and a waterproof cover for those middle of the night "oopses", but in general, you have everything you need with the initial buy.

If you want your baby to be really comfortable in the pack and play, buy a new mattress for it. The organic sheets sold here fit the thicker, new mattress well and your baby will sleep as well as in a crib. I bought this mattress, and the organic sheets from Amazon. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Dream-On-Me-Inner-Spring-Graco-Pack-n-Play-Mattress/20585438

You can use 1 pad or 2, they have very good sensitivity so don't worry about just using 1 especially if your baby isn't crawling or rolling. The pads are about 6 inches across, so 2 would fit in a bassinet but it's not needed.

You shouldn't use sheets or blankets with this bassinet or any bassinet for that matter. Diaper and full pajamas only. My son is just over five months and he's already too big for this bassinet.
