Graco Pack 'n Play Close2Baby Bassinet Playard review

The Graco Pack 'n Play Close2Baby Bassinet Playard is the pick for parents who would rather buy one piece of gear than a bassinet and a playard separately. In the box are three things: a full-size infant bassinet that sits on top of the playard for babies up to 15 lbs, a portable bassinet for babies up to 20 lbs that you can carry to wherever you are in the house, and a removable changer rated to 25 lbs with wipe-clean fabric and storage for essentials. When the baby outgrows the bassinets, the frame becomes a toddler playard, and Graco's push-button fold and carry bag make it a travel bed. The compromises are typical of playards. The raised infant bassinet stage ends at 15 lbs, earlier than the 20 lb limit of most bassinets here. Graco confirms there is no stand for the portable bassinet and recommends no sheets in it.
