Can the bassinet bumper be removed? Bumpers are a suffocation risk.

You're welcome! I understand. You're being cautious of course! Another item I used for all 3 of my babies was a "wedge" that kept the baby on their backs.. Course they can't roll anyway ... BUT it keeps them firmly in place - which is good.. And gives the parents more peace of mind. Good luck!! :)

The bumper in the top bassinet portion cannot be removed as far as I know. But keep this in mind.. The baby cannot roll over until s/he is 3 months old.. And.. You if you look a bit closer you will see there is a mesh area where the babies head will be.. I used this product for our daughter (now 3yrs old) and I highly recommend it. Another perk is its on wheels and can be easily moved from room to room.. Good luck! Enjoy your precious bundle. :)

It's not mandatory. My little girl was 5lbs 12 oz when we left the hospital and we got away without using an insert. Now I would recommend it if the infant has to use it to sleep in at night if they don't like the bassinet. It would simply just fit better because my LO slides down a little bit if she gets to moving which isn't a huge deal but she gets uncomfortable.

The bassinet is removable. When it is attached it is actually very secure. But you can also detach it to carry the basket part to a different part of the house.

First off; congratulations on the baby/grand baby/niece/nephew! The bassinet (with the handle) are attached to the base of the whole system by two parachute-style clips. They are very secure, which is great. They're also hidden by the ruffles. The removable portion is fairly easy to remove, allowing you to use the changing pad that is built into (and not removable) below; which forms the top of the rest of the system once the basket is removed. We were very happy with ours; have kept it in anticipation of another child. Please let me know if you have other questions with which I can help.

I haven't tried it, but I would guess you could since the pad( the trifold padded board) that normally goes in the bottom moves to the top for the bassinet and is the same size as the mattress. I don't know if it would be safe though, since you would be raising the height by three inches.

I personally did not use a bassinet sheet. I tucked a blanket around the pad. This bassinet has a pad that is detachable. You would definitely be able to place a sheet on it if it was the correct size.I truly love this bassinet. We use it all the time.

I double knotted mine to start with & she just noticed the ties recently but can't undo them (yet anyway). I guess they could pose the same type of problem if you're worried about bumpers. The underside of the CribWrap is plastic (so not a breathable material). My daughter has slept on her stomach from the time she learned to roll over and she flops around so much that I was glad I had also put bumpers in her bed (which I had to weave through the slats since she could pull the bumper down). I have bumpers and CribWraps on the front & both sides of her crib and have never had a problem.

Yes it can as long as you place it on the hard surface under the mattress. Be sure to run the wires out the underside of the bassinet to avoid contact with baby.my bassinet had a zipper I feed the line through.you may need to cut a small 2 inch slit to run the wires out of the bottom back of your bassinet to keep baby safe and free of possible danger of cords.

If you have the insert (which you need unless your kid is really big or 2+) then yeah you have to take it off. It's very easy, even if you have a baby in one hand. We love it.

No, a bassinet mattress won't fit in it. For safety, I wouldn't recommend using anything else other than the pad that comes with it. My grandson is 5 months old now and still sleeps through the night in it. I haven't measured the pad but I think the size is on the web site

Nope, can be removed completely to get more access to the baby or covered with a blanket / muslin cloth to restrict light.

The bumpers are not padded for safety. I have a standard size crib and they work great. The set is adorable!!

The answer is something in between. The changing table is far easier to take off than the bassinet, so you could just put it someplace else if you wanted. But you ca't hang it off the side. Hope that helps!

No it would not be safe. This is almost as tall as a dining room table. If you search bassinet thru amazon it will show bassinets with no legs :)

We used it like a bassinet. It's very sturdy and cradles the baby, offering cozy comfort. A much older baby who is fighting sleep may require the restraints , but otherwise, I don't think so. We loved ours and have given them as gifts to very grateful friends.

No, everything is connected. If you take the legs off the bassinet will collapse in half

It's only a bassinet... at 15 pounds the child will have outgrown it and I wouldn't think you would want to risk collapse. Individual situations for each child though just use common sense to keep your child safe.
