Graco Pack 'n Play On the Go Playard review

The Graco Pack 'n Play On the Go Playard is the low-cost default, and it still covers the newborn stage. For $79.99 you get a removable full-size bassinet that folds with the playard, so there are fewer parts to carry and set up, plus a toy bar with soft toys and a carry bag. Graco says folding feet and wheels give a fold 20% more compact than its other playards, and its push-button fold closes the frame. The bassinet is rated for infants up to 15 lbs, and the playard for children up to 35 inches tall who cannot climb out. It measures 28.25 by 39.5 inches and 38 inches high, and weighs 21.43 lbs, so it is more of a car-trunk play yard than an airport one. Sheets are extra. If you want an adjustable toy bar and knit fabrics, the Zip ($89.99) and Zip DLX ($99.99) versions sit on the same page.
