Is the bassinet high enough so when you have to wake up to nurse in the middle of the night you can just easily reach and pick up baby from your bed?

Depends on a few things. 1: DO NOT use the diaper changing area as a bassinet. It is not designed for that and would not be a good idea. 2. If you are referring to the area the child lays on then it depends on the height of your bed. For a bed that is 3-4 feet off the ground there will be no problem since the 1st level sits pretty high up. Lower than 3 feet and you will have to get up and reach down a little more. Good luck and congratulations!

Tough to tell since I guess it depends on your bed height, and how long your arms are. But I would say probably not. It has adjustable heights but I don't think they are high enough to pick up the baby without having to stand up first. We didn't use this until he was older and more mobile, around 5 months maybe.

No, it does not, but you can adjust the mattress to put it up high for infants.

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.

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

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

Unfortunately the mattress is not firm. But we placed blankets down and swaddle her. She is now 4 months and just moving out of bassinet. I love it and think it's worth the money. My parents didn't like it because they wanted something bigger. But it's easy to move and place next to bed because of the height

Yes-the side that is down in the picture can be raised up so it's just like a bassinet. I used mine like that for my second baby, and it was great. Both side are mesh and breathable. Hope this helps!

Not that I found, I used an older bassinet that I found at a garage sale as the stand. My baby really liked sleeping in this bassinet and used it every night.

Yes. Also the hard feet are below the bottom of the bassinet, so if placed on a hard surface there is a space underneath and the baby is suspended by an inch or so anyway. Hope that makes sense.

We used it at bedside from day 1 and had no problems. Yes, it's on the ground so you have to make a little more effort to pick the kid up in and out. But I liked being able to just peek over the edge of my bed and looking down to check on my little guy.

Yes, I'd say this item is essentially a bassinet. We use this as a bassinet at night and for occasional naps during the day. The bed is not heavy so it's easy to move around your home if needed. We don't have the matching bouncer but find this works well on its own. Our baby is three months old and in the 90th percentile for height but it looks like this will fit her for while. Bottom line, if you love the design I'd go for it. I think our baby would probably sleep just as well in something cheaper, but I'm glad to have something neutral and simple around.

Yes. The picture shown the lowest point of the mattress setting. I put on the highest level for my 6 month old baby, easy on our back.

I'm also 5'4 and it so super easy to lift the baby out. If she's in the middle I might step in with one leg to get her and it's pretty easy bc the gate isn't too high. I love this playpen. My baby spits up quite a bit so I can't just let her roam freely right now.

Yes. My child has slept beside my bed in this bassinet since he was born he is 3 months old and still sleeps in it. I like it because theres a mesh siding for if he turns his face and wiggles his way to the side he can still breath...Its worry free!

No, it more of a typical bassinet height. We have a low profile mattress/boxspring and the top of thi bassinet reached above our mattress.

I would have to measure it, but it is a little lower than a bassinet. if you want to email me, I can send you a picture of it with a moses basket made of bulrush in it and you could probably get an idea by the surroundings. janbrooks@epbfi.com

Yes and Yes.I actually found it annoying attached to the bed because I had to crawl to the foot of my bed to get out. I also found that I needed to sit up with my legs off the bed to have the leverage to lift the baby into my bed. It was too awkward to reach over while lying down.So I used it as a bassinette but it's size made it really portable for holidays or RV camping and height made it easier to lay the sleeping baby down as opposed to a pack n play where you have to reach down to the ground.
