Does it come with a top?/Is it easily portable?

Yes. Everything is in a little box and I found it easily portable. I was also able to hold a pencil and highlighter in it.

Yes, the parent unit is definitely portable. I take it with me to the backyard all the time!

It can be portable. Just need batteries. New models come with rechargeable battery.

yes- it comes with a stand that folds up compactly and it also has a carrying case the holds the stand and hammock. If you need a smaller hammock that is easy to move, it is great. If you have the space and don't need to move it frequently, I'd get a bigger hammock. This one is definitely not for larger people (over 190 pounds, 6 feet tall is pushing it).

The cooktop is portable; it can be placed on the counter top, a table... or wherever you want to place it!

Yes, it's portable. It folds up so you can put it in a backpack with your books and for storage.

I would say it's not terribly portable. It is rather lightweight, but tall and bulky. I certainly would not want to take it apart and re-assemble it. Putting it together was not fun and I would not want to deal with that over and over.

It does. Portable? I doubt it. This one is pretty bulky. For Home & office, this one is a perfect choice

It definitely is portable to take to a hotel. Just put it in a bag of your choice to take it along with you as it is large to carry otherwise.

The model we received does have a removable, padded top. There is no storage underneath the top, it opens to the spiral gear system that raises and lowers the bench height. It is very comfortable and the raising and lowering mechanism is top quality and heavy duty.

Mine did not come with a top. I folded a stiff medium sized tarp which extended about 1.5 - 2 feet beyond the ends of the house, with some insulation duct taped between the folds so that it wouldn't get wet when it rained. Then i secured it to the house by wrapping a long bungee cord around it.

It is pretty easy to assemble but taking it down and re-assembling would be a pain. Putting it together was no problem even for a non-mechanical person like me. It is not very portable unless you had a truck or large van with storage capability. I would not consider it to be a portable item.

It is portable. If you mean just on a daily basis for quick pick-ups, it folds up with everything intact. There are snaps on the two corners so you just fold and snap to acquire a half size shape. So just picture it half the size it is with the arches on the outside. I do that at the end of each day. On the weekends, I unsnap the arches and fold them up just as they were packaged using the original plastic straps and then fold the mat into a smaller size to put in the closet. My granddaughter is now 10 months old and I still use it. She still loves to lie on the smooth, silky, colorful fabric and look at the pretty colors and animal imprints. The little monkey that used to dangle from the arches is one of her favorite little guys. I did not expect to get this much use out of the mat. I had expected to box it up for long term storage when I decided it was time for the arches to come down but there are still things about the mat she likes. I babysit three full days a week and put this item at the top of my list of favorites. The designer got it right.

It's portable, you take off the top portion and fill it at your sink, very easy, I love ours!

The top is more like pressed board. It's not super sturdy. If you are going to have kids using it, I would recommend something else.

It's not super portable but I (female) have no problem scooting it around as I need. It does not fold up and go in a car or anything....
