Can the bassinet be used for overnight sleeping?

Absolutely! The bassinet portion detaches from the base and is curved on the bottom so when you set it on the floor you can rock your little one. When we used ours for overnight sleeping we did take the hood off, but it works fine with it on too. There are also cloth straps that tuck into zippers on the outsides of the bassinet so once you take baby out you can pick it up easily.

Yes. We use the monitor with our bassinet which has a very thin pad, no mattress at all. It works just fine.

Yes, you CAN wear it to bed overnight, but I would NOT walk in it. Don't think they are made for that purpose.

For a bassinet, no. That's about standard for them. By nature, they are smaller. They just aren't meant for bigger babies.

I used it as a primary place for my baby to sleep up up until she was 3 months. She slept better in the backnplay bassinet then she did in her expensive crib. Just make sure baby is always properly secured.

My son is 10 months old and still naps in this on occasion...and he is large for his age. I can't remember at what age he outgrew the bassinet feature; I think sometime around 4 months. But, after the bassinet is outgrown, you can just put the mattress in the bottom and they nap down there. I wouldn't use this for a full-time crib at this age; but for the occasional nap or overnight trip, my son is perfectly comfortable in it. He is not going to fit in it much longer. My daughter outgrew it sometime around her first birthday.

I love this travel crib, but I would say no. Mainly because the mattress sits on the floor. It would work as a bassinet, but it wouldn't be very convient in the middle of the night.

Yes. Never use extra mattress in bassinet mode and only use it in stage 2 and 3.

My baby is currently sound asleep on it! It fits perfectly in the bassinet and seems to be comfortable for him. It's good quality too, I would recommend it.

We have a similar pack n play from Graco with the bassinet and yes I think it would work fine. I put my little one down for naps in it. I use a sleep positioner wedge to keep her in place in it and to make it cozier. Ours came with a diaper changing area too which is so handy!

Yes. It worked for me and is easy to go back and forth to using it with or without the bassinet.

I don't think so. The cot is not wide enough and I doubt you would be able to get a reasonable night's sleep without being able to move some. You might be able to fit an adult and a small child on it, but neither would be able to move much all night.

i didn't use a bassinet, i used a maxi cosi car seat and it worked great till 10 months when she was too long. i felt it kept her more supported than a bassinet.

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.

yes you can.I grabbed it from the rigid bottom and there were no issues at all.I loved this bassinet.. I used it to travel and it fits a lot of clothes and diapers.. and i was able to use it in so many different places.. thanks to the mosquito net it totally works out doors too.

The mattress pad for the bassinet is very thin, which is fine for a newborn. We never used the bassinet attached to the bed, instead we kept all four sides up and used it as a traditional bassinet just right next to the bed. I was always afraid I would toss some covers on my baby while I slept ( I get really hot and restless in the southern summer nigths down here). We also liked keeping it unattached from our bed so we could roll it around the house and use it for naps when he was a newborn. That way I could do laundry and he could be napping nearby.

Not really for sleeping.As occasional night if the kids have a sleep over and you decide to have them all sleep in living room, then it might be ok for one night....
