Compared To

The Day2Dream offers more features (changing station, portable bassinet) but is bulkier; the Zip DLX is preferred for its simpler, lighter design and better bassinet.

vs Graco Travel Dome

The Travel Dome is more compact for travel but has a smaller bassinet; the Zip DLX provides a larger, more comfortable bassinet for longer use.

vs Other Graco models (e.g., Lockwood, Quick Connect)

The Zip DLX stands out for its zip-in bassinet and modern design, while other models are cheaper but lack the premium bassinet feature.

Source Threads

  • Safe sleep confirmation for Zip DLX bassinet

    We have the Graco On the Go Zip DLX and love it. The bassinet is safe for overnight sleep, our baby slept in it from day one until she outgrew it. It's solid and has a firm mattress, which is exactly what you want for safe sleep.

  • Zip DLX chosen over Day2Dream and Travel Dome

    I ended up getting the On the Go Zip DLX after comparing it to the Day2Dream and Travel Dome. The zip-in bassinet is a game changer, so easy to take off and wash. The Day2Dream had too many parts and was bulkier. The mattress is hard but that's normal for safe sleep.

  • Recommended for travel ease

    The On the Go Zip DLX is our go-to for travel. It sets up fast and folds down compact enough for our car. We've taken it to hotels and grandparents' house. Only wish the bag had a shoulder strap.

  • Using Zip DLX as primary bassinet

    We're using the Zip DLX as our main bassinet in our room. Baby sleeps well, but I do wish the mattress pad was a bit softer. I know it's safe, but it seems uncomfortable. Still, no regrets, it's a great piece.

  • Model comparison summary highlighting Zip DLX

    The On the Go Zip DLX is my top pick of all Graco models for the zip-in bassinet and overall quality. It's a bit pricey but worth it. The Lockwood is good too but doesn't have the zip feature. Make sure you practice setup before baby comes.
