NOT SAFE!!!, December 8, 2010

I believe this is the same play yard we bought from WalMart, just a different pattern. We bought the Jungle Harmony pattern, which can be seen at walmart.com.

I bought this for my 10-month old son to replace what we had used for our daughter. At first, it met my expectations exactly. However, thankfully we have a video monitor that my husband was able to watch my son playing in this play yard. My son had maneuvered his way underneath the floor pad, up to his neck. Because the bottom is simply a piece of cloth, he could not get a grip to crawl back on top of the floor pad. He was not in distress or upset, but also was not that way for even a minute before my husband saw him & pulled him out. This does have velcro straps to hold the floor pad down, but on one side the strap is not at the edge of the play yard (which is what keeps him from being able to do this on our old pack & play). I would not advocate this to anyone as I see it as a large safety concern!

Great for the post-swaddling months, October 26, 2009

Our baby was able to bust out of a swaddle early on, even with the special velcro-ing (is that a verb?) blankets like the Kiddopotamus & Co. Organic Cotton SwaddleMe – Ivory. With this product, he stays warm all through the night because he cannot kick it off. No 2am “I’m cold” crying, plus we do not have to worry about it ending up over his face.

Does its job, September 26, 2009

By 

Jennifer H. Schlebach “SHEROX” (League City, Texas) – See all my reviews

  

Love the sleep sack to keep the covers on baby. When your baby gets too huge to swaddle this is the ticket. Otherwise they kick off the blanket. The arm holes are small enough to keep it on as it should be. The zipper zips from top to bottom so it’s not in baby’s face or neck. Very roomy! Should get a lot of use out of this size. Our six month old is around 18 lbs & 26 inches and has plenty of room to grow in it. I am not absolutely sold on the organic deal. I did not notice it being super soft like the packaging says, “feel the softness”.

Great for babies transitioning out of a swaddle, March 30, 2011

By 

Gwendolyn Dawson “Literary License” (Houston, Texas United States) – See all my reviews

  

Our baby was swaddled for sleep up until she was 6-months-old and started rolling over onto her stomach while swaddled. We tried putting her in footie pajamas for sleep, but she seemed a bit restless during the night. It was too drastic of a change from the swaddle she’d become comfortable with. We tried this Halo SleepSack (on top of the pajamas), and she settled right down to sleep. The SleepSack gives her the cosy comfort of a swaddle with the freedom to roll over without any safety issues. Now we use a SleepSack each night. We like the standard fabric (rather than the fleece variety). Living in Houston, the Halo fleece fabric is too heavy and warm, even in winter.

Great portable crib!, August 24, 2010

I’m very happy with the crib. We visit my sister often and used a Pack and Play when my son was smaller. Once he outgrew the bassinett portion, we hated the Pack and Play. It was so hard to lay him down without hurting your back or having him wake up as you lowered him down. This crib is great since we do not have to bend all the way down to the floor to lay him down. Even at the lowest height, the crib is at least a foot off the ground. My husband adores the changing table feature which I have not seen on any other portable crib. We have taken the crib on a few road trips. Its not as simple to travel with as a pack and play but my son sleeps well in it and its easier on our backs. I read the negative review about not being able to find a mattress or sheets that fit. I ordered a mattress and sheets from Amazon and they fit perfectly. I knew that portable crib mattresses are very flimsy so I did not anticipate to use it anyway.

AWFUL DANGEROUS CRIB, March 26, 2011

Please do not purchase this crib. I purchased 2 of these and the brackets holding the mattress base are TINY and the base always tends to slip off of time. Many times the mattress has collapsed. Luckily my child was not in it otherwise he could have suffered serious injuries. There is a design fault that endangers life and still these guys have no moral qualms about selling these cribs.

Great, February 16, 2011

We keep this crib at Grandma and Grandpa’s house. The only reason that I am not giving it five stars is that one of the wheels broke off while it was being moved and we had to order four new wheels instead of being able to order just one. This crib is very nice looking considering how much it costs. I am sure that G&G will be glad that they can store it away between grandkids!

Love Them!, April 7, 2011

We actually own two of these (for our twin girls) and I have to state they are totally beautiful, especially with the matching changer. My husband was able to put two together in under an hour–total breeze. The instruction manual reads easily and no special tools were needed. They do come in a HUGE box so be prepared to have somewhere for them to be delivered. The company that manufactures these (Summer Infant) has also been very simple to work with. A couple pieces on our changer were damaged and I called up Summer Infant, got through right away, and they sent replacement parts–no questions asked. My only complaint really is the numerous, massive safety stickers (I know they are there for a reason!) because they were a pain-in-the-butt to remove from the cribs.

Great replacement for the crib blanket, January 28, 2010

By 

Rachel Smith (Texas) – See all my reviews

  

My daughter is nearly a year old, and she has worn a sleep sack each night since she has come home from the hospital. They are wonderful for keeping her warm, especially now that she moves plenty in her sleep. The sack stays on instead of being kicked off like a blanket. Because the sack is either made of fleece or cotton, I can select which one to put her in depending on the fabric weight of her pajamas so that she doesn’t get too hot or too cold. It’s great for naps too, because I can just slip it on over her play clothes and she ‘feels’ like it’s time to go to sleep. I will certainly use them over and over again for future children.

too warm for summer in Florida but great for the winter. My son adores how soft it is and I love he is warm and safe. We got two last winter and they will still fit him this winter.

Peace of mind, November 20, 2010

This blanket is great. I have used these on my daughter since she was 4 months old and I love them. I do not have to worry about her waking up at night due to being cold. I will continue to purchase these as long as they come in her size and she is 19 months old now.

Very cute, but very light…, October 31, 2010

By 

L. London “LLondon” (Atlantic City, NJ) – See all my reviews

  

I granted my daughter to choose the Monkey Nap Mat in Pink. This is her second Nap Mat and compared to the one previously bought for the same price it is thin, lacks padding, the pillow is stuffing and not an actual removable pillow you can wash(as needed.) Also the straps to close up/carry the Nap Mat are way too short.

Not bad for the price, February 9, 2011

This is a very adorable napmat. Fine for daycare. I wash it at the end of each week. I have to use a sweater stone to remove “balls” that form all over as a result of the washer/dryer. I also reshape the pillow. I pick my daughter up at the end of naptime so I often see her fast asleep all cuddled up on her mat. She adores it, so it fine with me. Especially great price.

Blanket colors are just like in the photo; neither the colors nor the softness have faded after its first wash.

Faded Colors, December 3, 2010

I was very disappointed about the color of this blanket. The product picture shows the blanket with rich colors. That is NOT what I got. The colors are very faded and makes the blanket appear to be low quality or old. I put this order back in early November and did not receive it until Dec. 3rd. It was a long wait. I bought this as a gift. I took it into a shop to have my nephews name embroidered on it in attempt to make it more amusing for the child. Now I can only hope that once it gets washed the color wont fade even worse than it already is.

Not bad, not great., October 12, 2009

By 

S. Hubble – See all my reviews

  

I’ve purchased a couple Halo sacks for my daughter to sleep in (in the microfleece and cotton) and loved them both, so I decided to get this one for her at eighteen months. I ordered the 18-24 month sack and it is made of a basketball jersey-type material. It was not what I expected. I do live in Texas, so for the fall it will work just fine, but I will probably have to get something heavier for the winter. It is also very massive and will probably dwarf most 18 month-olds. There are leg-holes, but my daughter will not be able to walk in hers for some time. It serves its purpose, but I would not advocate this for those living in cooler climates and would state order on the smaller end if you anticipate them to walk around in it.

Lightweight for summer, runs big, November 27, 2009

By 

M. Thompson (San Jose, CA United States) – See all my reviews

  

I purchased this early walker sleeper for summer, along with the microfleece one for winter. My 19-month old adores to sleep in them — he can move around a lot more than the previous sleep sacks which did not have feet. (We used the ones w/o feet up until he was 18 months old.) The material on the wearable mesh is just like another user described — like basketball shorts. It’s very lightweight, but I think it will be good for summer over some light pajamas. These run very huge so get a size smaller.

Love Halo Products!, March 15, 2010

By 

Amy R. Murphy – See all my reviews

  

I received this sleepsack to try for my 11 month old. I really love the concept and I love the material used around the feet. I think all of their products are wonderful! My only complaint, and the only thing keeping me from giving it 5 stars, is how massive they are. My baby is an early walker for sure, and I absolutely comprehend that these need to fit a 6 month span, but my 3.5 year old easily can wear this sack in size massive with room to spare and she is very tall for her age. If you are buying one for someone under a year, you might want to purchase the normal sleepsack. Over a year, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
