Obsessed!

Sidney225

I bought this a month ago for some upcoming travel with my three month old, and I am so glad I did! Perfect size, compact, and lightweight. Folds up so easily and is a great size for her. She sleeps peacefully and comfortably. She is safe and secure in the bassinet zip in part, and it’s very stable.

Easy to Assemble

Aunt to Many

Great product. Easy to assemble and take on the go!

Perfect play pen

Sara Todorovic

Very compact and easy to setup! We flew across country and it was perfect when visiting family. The zipper addition is great for sleep and comes of easily for play time.

Great prduct

Danielle P

Great product, love the color. Difficult to close at times

Household essential; baby LOVES the stars!

Mage

We love this playard! It’s the second we have in our home, and we appreciate how easy they are to set up, take down, and move around the space. Our little one is 4 months old now, and still loves the star mobile attachment. It was one of the very first things he could figure out how to interact with, and enjoyed many long sessions of “bopping” the stars. Now that his motor skills are more developed, the bopping has turned into a game for him to get them to swing up and over the bar. Endless wiggles and laughs doing that! We love that it’s also another space for him to safely sleep when he finally wears himself out. Also, personally, I love love love this dusty purple colour!

Perfect for all your events

Lori Kop

Bought this for gift for nieces baby and was very well liked. She loves the design and ease of set up.

Safety

Wilmarys

Love the color, is safe and convenience on the go, this is my second one, the first one, was a donation use several years ago and was great and like new, this time I decided to buy a new one for my baby.

Great option for baby's crib

spmp333

Lovely crib, and super practical for traveling or relocate the baby's crib. Great purchase!!

I would 100% buy again

Becca C

10/10 overall. I love how the feature for my newborn zips all the way around instead of how the old Greco pack n plays secured it. It’s also very quick to put together once you get the hang of it. I will say spit up stains the mattress pad very quickly so just make sure you have a pad or something under your sheet to protect it

Great Pack 'n Play

Ramonaa

This pack-n-play is very beautiful and easy to install. It's quite spacious as well. Our 5-month-old baby sleeps great in it. It's also perfect for travel!

Nice for Velcro baby

Leigh Ann

Baby loves it! I like that I can move her around with me!

Great quality and price

Audrey C

Good quality ! There are a lot of options but we went with the cheaper route and we are very satisfied. Super easy to put together and love being able to pack it in the car for vacations. Great quality

My favorite pack n play!

Valerie9291

Easiest pack and play i have ever owned with any of my children.

Easy to set up and nice cushion top

Yoly

I received this pack n play as a promotion for stellar panel. I set it up immediately & it was incredibly light and easy to use! The wheels one one side make it incredibly simple to move around my house. The cushion on the top of the bassinet is soft and comfortable for my baby. The only thing I would like better is if the hanging stars attachment was lower or even more diverse! I have the Graco slim spaces swing the stars are identical, but my baby cannot grab or interact with them at all since they are too high and awkwardly placed. Other than that, it is light & easy to use!

Fantastic Playard

Kcarp88

The Graco Pack 'n Play On The Go Zip Playard needs to be added your must-have baby accessories! This product went beyond my expectations. First, I love how easy it is to set up! The zip in bassinet liner is so much easier to install and more functional than other styles I’ve used in the past. The mattress pad is so soft, yet still meets sleeping guidelines. My baby really seems to be comfortable when she’s laying in it and I am comforted knowing that she is safe. I think my favorite feature is being able to fold it up with the bassinet liner attached. This makes it so easy to move around when needed and to travel with. I absolutely love this playard. It’s simple, yet functional. I highly recommend this product. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing this Pack N Play!

Pack n play n sleep n enjoy

Pandamomx3

I am thoroughly loving this playard. Its pleasing, wider-than-average shape makes me feel my baby won't feel confined. The design provides ample room for him, even if he rolls within the bassinet. Plus, the whole thing seems shorter, which make it easier for me to put my baby down. The colors are simple and neutral, so the whole thing is pretty adorable. I am also very pleased with how comfortably the mattress supports my baby; it provides adequate cushioning without being overly soft or exceedingly hard, like most mattresses. My baby boy appears to sleep soundly and safely, and the soft fabric is gentle on his sensitive skin, eliminating the need for extra sheets. He seems very warm and cozy in the bassinet. My only concern is that the bassinet's walls are rather low, making it easy for my baby to crawl out. It doesn't seem practical for long-term use. I took away a star for that. However, I can still utilize the playard portion for sleeping, so I'm not overly worried. The bassinet was remarkably easy to install; the zipper functioned flawlessly. Setup was also relatively straightforward, although my husband assisted with locking the side edges, which proved slightly challenging for me. I also needed help disassembling it, as I'm petite and had difficulty locating the release mechanism. Overall, it was significantly easier to assemble and disassemble than previous models I've used, making it convenient for travel. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard.

Pack N Play On the Go Zip Playard

kschgill

I was given this playard to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I can't recommend it enough. It's simple but asthetically pleasing look fits any home decor or style. Folded it up it is significantly smaller and more compact than my previous pack and play. It fits easily in a closet for storage, in the trunk or back seat for trips, and can easily be taken on the go for a safe place for baby when needed. Once it is opened, there is more than enough room for your little one to play and sleep. The zipper bassinet attachment is my favorite part. The zipper feature keeps the bassinet secure and still unlike the ones where the bassinet clips on. The set up and break down of the pack and play is a breeze. I have used this pack and play for my toddler and infant and there is more than enough room for both of them to be in there. My favorite things about this pack and play is the mattress. The material of the mattress is durable and soft, but most importantly comfortable. The mattress also snaps in place under the pack and play so that it stays secure when being used for play and sleep. I can't wait to take it on trips this summer for my infant to sleep. It's that good!

Awesome budget friendly playard

MiMo38

This is the best playard I’ve found for under $100 by far. It’s aesthetically cute enough to keep in our living room full time, plus while we are using the zip in feature we can use the bottom half as extra storage. We had the older model of this same style pack n play without the zip feature and definitely prefer this one. It’s more cushioned and feels more sturdy and secure than models with the tent-style poles. Set up is overall pretty easy and similar to most playards we’ve tried. It’s no one handed operation, but it only takes about minute or two to fully assemble. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard!

The bassinet option is a game changer for me

Vane

I received this item through the Stellar Product testing panel, and I am excited to use with my upcoming new born. I had the older graco pack n play with my first which I liked but couldn't use until she was around 6 months because she was such a light sleeper and being a short queen that I am it was difficult for me to place her smoothly in the pack n play without waking her. I love that this has a bassinet option for when they are younger and that it folds up with the added accessory. It doesn't fold as easy as it would without it, but it does fold up without having to Uninstall and reinstall each time.

Me and baby loved it

Cheyanna

I received The Graco Pack 'n Play on the go zip from Stellar Product Testing Panel to review, and I have to say I loved the modern design and the cute stars on the mobile. The zip-in bassinet works great, is super safe for the newborn stage, and is convenient and super plus is that it grows with the baby. Also you can just unzip the bassinet when your baby outgrows it. The mattress is soft and comfortable for the little one. The Graco pack 'n Play is easy to use, set up, and take down, and it conveniently packs into a carrying case, great for on-the-go moms like me.

Easy to use pack n play with zip in bassinet

Gabby

The Pack n’ Play On The Go Zip Playard has been so great for our family. It is incredibly easy to use and set up especially when traveling. My favorite feature is the zip in bassinet which has worked so well for naps and sleeping on the go when we’re traveling or not at home. The bassinet zips in smoothly and I have never had any issues trying to set it up. I have had other pack n’ plays with bassinets but this one is far superior because you don’t have to take out the bassinet part every time you move it and try and squeeze it all into the case to close it. As a busy mom it makes my life way easier and don’t have to worry about the set up taking so much time! The mattress insert feels incredibly soft and durable, a better quality than other ones I’ve used. My baby has slept so well in it and it’s been great to put him in there to play when we’re not home. Overall, we have really loved this and will be using this for many years to come! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard.

Great pack and play

Kate

I have used a variety of pack ‘n plays and they all seem pretty similar: they’re similar in size, pretty much the same to set up and take down, have similar mesh sides, and come in pleasant neutral colors. They all seem to fold up and fit into carrying bags for travel in similar ways. So why try this one? At first glance, it checks some basic boxes: it is a nice neutral color, is a reliable brand, has a soft mattress, zips up in a travel bag and is easy to set up. BUT the stand-out feature is the zip-in bassinet. I’ve never seen anything like it before, and I love it! It was pretty intuitive for me to figure out how to zip the mattress into place and it’s sturdy! My baby has a better view from up high through the mesh, so she can see what the big people are up to. I can see her better than if she were laying in the bottom of our old pack ‘n play. She also really likes to play with the dangling stars. All of these reasons are why I’m getting rid of our old pack ‘n plays and recommending this one to my friends. It’s a no-fuss, practical, easy-to-use playard with a truly nifty bassinet adaptation. NOTE: I was given this playard to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Easy and sleek

RMoraco

I received this play yard as part of the Stellar testing Panel and I am so thankful for it! I is extremely easy to set up and break down. It looks lovey and fits in well with the other furniture. The fabric is so soft and much better than my old play yard I had. My little one is extremely comfortable in there and it gives me peace of mind to know that she is secure and safe. The zip in bassinet portion is easy to install and works great. Its size is slightly smaller than my old play yard but I honestly love that as it’s a better footprint for the space I have.

Nice pack and play

Lee22

I was given this playard to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. When I received the playard I was eager to take it out, I’m usually picky which is why I never bought a pack and play before, I couldn’t find one that I liked, when it came to style and colors. I loved the all black body and the gray cushion/mattress. I was impressed with the mattress I wasn’t expecting it to be as plush as it came to be, and the texture is amazing soft and buttery. I had no use for the zipper bassinet as my baby is 7 months now and is able to sit up on his own & the mattress does lay high when zippered. But we do use the bottom layer and he loves it. Sit up is quite easy, just snapping the borders/arms in place and placing the mattress inside all the way to releasing the arms and just simply removing the mattress and pulling the handle in the middle, collapses easily. The little plush toys are adorable and I like that it comes with its own bag, I’m able to take anywhere or just switch between rooms. I mostly keep ours in the living area as that is where I’m at the most. At this point I regret getting a crib, this playard has multiple uses as opposed to a crib. Absolutely love it!

Price Convenience and Comfortability all in one

Happymama

I received the Graco Pack 'n Play On The Go Zip Playard as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Upon receiving the playard we set it up immediately. It came in a zipper fabric case and was easy to unpack as well as set up. The instructions were very clear and simple to follow. Having put together a previous playard, I was somewhat understanding of the process; However, this playard was so much easier to set up than one I already have. Everything snapped and zipped into place perfectly. My first impression was that I loved the neutral colors, the feel of the fabric and the thickness of the padding on the mattress that was included. These things particularly caught my interest because I chose a playard with a lot of bells and whistles on my baby registry and received it. It was not nearly as convenient and much less comfortable than this brand. When setting it up the full size zip-in bassinet was so simple to put in yet so sturdy and safe and there is so much room! I am still amazed at how soft and comfortable the included mattress pad was. My baby doesn't like the bassinet I chose for our baby registry. The mattress is very stiff and uncomfortable. It feel like she's sleeping on a board, but this Pack 'n Play On The Go Zip Playard she has slept in daily since we received it with no issues. I can tell she is much more comfortable, warm and cozy when she's in it. I can very easily unzip the bassinet option and make it a full size playard in seconds if needed. I am currently, while using the bassinet option, able to use the bottom space under the bassinet as a temporary storage for her blankets and toys which is an added bonus! The playard comes with a snap on mobile toy for baby to be entertained as well. I cannot overstate how soft the fabric is that makes this playard not to mention the actual mattress pad as well. It's just so different than most playards I have used in the past and it is well worth it's value over and over. It's super simple to disassemble and pack back away making it a great travel option when we visit my parents and she needs a place to play or sleep or a diaper changing option. It just has so many great benefits! When we are using it at home it's lightweight and easy to move from room to room with the wheels on the bottom of one side. Simply lift one side and move. All in all, I highly recommend this playard to families with a baby. It's compact, lightweight, comfortable, spacious, soft and very versatile. It also allows for additional storage during the early months.

Amazing Pack n Play

Wendy

I received the Pack ‘ n Play On The Go Zip Playard through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I want to start off by saying that this Playard is amazing! I knew I was going to like and use it, but did not think I was going to love it as much as I do. The look and design of the pack ‘n play are very simple, which makes this Playard look great in any design space. I currently have this Playard set up in my living room for my 4 month old baby and let me tell you! My baby boy loves this thing! I used to own a different pack n play, but the fabrics of the mattress pad would make a sound when my baby moved, causing him to wake up after a few minutes of laying down. The mattress pad in this Pack ‘n Play is the softest and most comfortable material I have ever felt, which I think helps my baby sleep in it longer. Even with my toddler running around and making noise, my 4 month old baby will not wake up from how cozy he is in this Playard! On top of that, I felt like this Playard was extremely easy to set up. The zip in bassinet is a great feature and I felt like my baby was safe in it. I also love how easy it is to remove the bassinet and transition to toddler use. I personally like how this Playard didn’t have so many extra features like a changing table. It makes setting up and putting away extremely easy and there is not as much bulk that goes along with it. The previous Playard I owned had too many attachments that came with it and it just felt overwhelming to put away. This Playard has honestly been a dream and I would 100% recommend it to anyone who is thinking of buying it.

A Must Have

Gaye

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard. As a mom who works from home with a toddler and 4 month old, this has been perfect for us and baby girl has been loving it. We live in a 3 story townhome so having this on the main floor while I work has been extremely helpful. I love how lightweight it is, and how fast and easy it is to assemble. What I love most about the pack’ n play is the zip in bassinet, and the baby loves the toy bar with the stars. I love how easily it is to unzip from the bassinet into the playard so as my baby grows, she has a safe spacious playard to be in. The carry bag is a huge plus and the way it folds for compact storage for easy travel was so helpful when we took the playard out of town with us! We previously used a different brand for my first and it was much heavier and bulkier for travel making it a little more difficult but I definitely recommend the Graco pack’ n play on the go playard for home or travel.

Pack and Go Playard

Playard

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard. I find the look and design of the playard to be wonderful. It features strong, bold colors and has a simpler yet very nice aesthetic. I believe it offers great value for families. Setting it up was very easy; I could do it with one hand while holding my baby. As well as storing it away was just as simple, which I say it's a big plus. The materials used are buttery soft, making it really comfortable. My daughter loved the mattress; it felt nice to the touch, was breathable, and provided ample cushioning. I must say I didn't use the full-size bassinet, but it was very easy to install and convert it to toddler use. The playard is lightweight and not bulky, so moving it around the house—from our bedroom to the living room and even to the kitchen—is a breeze. It gives my baby a safe and secure space while still allowing plenty of room to move around.

Pack and Play On The Go Zip Playard

Madina

I love the design of this playard, especially how easily it folds and packs. It’s incredibly convenient to carry, making it perfect for travel & overall value of this playard is amazing! The included mattress is comfortable, and my baby absolutely loved it. She was cozy and content, especially since I placed it in our living room, where she enjoyed the view. Compared to her crib in the bedroom, this playard was much easier to use and move around, thanks to the wheels on one side that make repositioning effortless. The zip-in, full-size bassinet was a great feature for me, as I like to switch things up from time to time. It was simple to assemble and made me feel confident that my baby was both secure and comfortable. I was truly impressed by how easily it folded and how versatile it is, functioning as both a bassinet and a crib. Setting up and maneuvering the playard was a breeze. It’s compact yet sturdy, and I really appreciated the wheels for added convenience. This is my first time using a playard, and so far, both my baby and I love it!! A big thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard.

Simple and comfortable

michlind

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard. As a mom of three, and the littlest being three months old, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this pack n’ play. My favorite feature is the new mattress they’ve designed, by far! It’s definitely more padded and thus more comfortable than on other pack ‘n play models I have. I’m excited about that. I will say that I made the assembly a bit more complicated than need be. I didn’t have experience before with the zip-in bassinet, so I had a little learning curve with that and also the mobile. I was able to assemble it all on the first use within 15 minutes. The mobile assembly probably took the longest because I couldn’t comprehend how three straight pieces would make an arch as pictured. It bends a lot easier than I realized it would. Assembly now just takes a few minutes. The look is neutral colored all around and I was pleasantly surprised how much my little guy is entertained by the hanging stars. Since the stars are attached by velcro, I foresee that being a fun little game for him when he’s able to reach better, but maybe not the best for nap time for us. Overall, I would 100% recommend this pack ‘n play. It’s neutral colored, simple without unnecessary bells and whistles, and comfy for my babe. A+!

Easy to Contain and Entertain Baby

BusyMomof2

My favorite thing about this pack n play is how light-weight it is, because if we are on the go, I want to be able to carry it and not have to rely on anyone else. The second best thing is how easy it is to set up. It took less than five minutes to get the whole thing set up and ready for my little one to play in. The bassinet feature is pretty cool, I used it for a few diaper changes, but I prefer to just keep it in the play-yard mode. I use it as a way to keep the baby entertained with her toys and contained in one spot while I need to step away and get something else done. I also have a toddler, and her toys get left on the floor a lot, so I don’t always want the baby to be able to access the non-baby-friendly toys, which is when the pack n play comes in handy, to keep the baby in there playing with her own toys. Regarding the appearance of the whole thing, I think it looks sleek and modern. Im glad that it’s black, because I am not a fan of too much pink, even though I have girls. I also appreciate the two wheels on one side, which make it easy to roll it from one place in the house to another without needing to lift it up. I did receive the product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I’m so glad I had the chance to test it out with my Baby#2! I like this one even better than the one I had bought with Baby#1.

Perfectly Functionally Fabulous

JMama7

I received this Pack N Play as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have seven children, so we put our previous one through the wringer! This is an excellent replacement. I wish we would have had this from the start 17 years ago. It is so easy to set up. The mattress part is soft, yet sturdy. My daughter loved it. It’s much more cushioned than our old one. The mesh is tight and secure, but allows baby to see out and us to see in. The bassinet part was simple to put on and take off. (I tried it to check, but didn’t use it for baby since she’s too old.) I love everything about this! I have used this in multiple rooms of our house, both as a cozy sleep space and place for baby to play safely without getting into things she shouldn’t have. It’s incredibly portable and can be set up or taken down and packed into the awesome storage/travel bag in no time at all and it’s not too heavy to carry either. Additionally, I love that it’s not a cutesy color - sleek and simple is exactly what I wanted. It seems solid and sturdy, doesn’t wobble or rock. I have no complaints!

Amazing portable playard

Jv0531

First time mom here with a 9 month old and I love this playard! It's so easy to set up and break down for transport. My in-laws has a party every other weekend so this playard was godsend to put my baby in for naps or to play in for a couple of minutes. I love the look and design and the pattern is cute too. The mattress is so comfortable too my baby can get 2+ hours of sleep time in it amidst the loud noises. There was a zip in full size bassinet too but my baby is a 9 month baby now so he is too heavy for that. But I love how easy it is to unzip it when not in use. It makes the transition from newborn to infant so much easier and time effective. Overall, I would definitely recommend this Pack 'n Play On The Go Zip Playard. I would also like to thank the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard.

Best pack n play for your little one

Karla

I was given this playard to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and ever since receiving this item I haven’t stopped using it. I love how soft and padded the mattress is making it really comfortable for my baby to sleep in. I use it in our living room to provide a safe space for my baby to either nap or play in. I have used a different pack n play and this one is by far the easiest to put up and down. So far I have taken this to my mother’s house and even the park and it was a life saver! My baby seems to love it too. He loves to kick his feet and watch the little stars from the toy bar move as he drinks his milk. I recently found out I am pregnant again and I’m happy that the color and style makes it work for both genders and I can’t wait to use the higher level. My son is too heavy for the higher level but I can’t wait to try this for our baby on the way! Overall, the pack and play is easy to move, easy to build, and most importantly comfy for my baby! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a pack n’ play!

Pack n Play

Mary

I received the Pack n Play from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I give it four out of five stars. I loved the color and the addition of the material and softness of the mattress pad. It was easy to set up and take down, and folds up nicely to fit it snug spaces. The zip in bassinet was very convenient considering it folds up and fits inside the folded up pack n play. My previous play yard bassinet is an additional attachment and doesn’t break down easily, or fit into a small space. The only issues I had with the play yard were with the bassinet. Being a zip in, as convenient as it is, the bassinet sat very low and was a little more difficult to reach into to grab the baby. It was also slanted. I placed baby in the middle of the bassinet to sleep. He’s not mobile on his own, but when he woke up he was up against the side. The mattress pad is slightly longer than my last pack n play which is nice, but doesn’t fit the sheets which I wasn’t expecting. The overhead visual attachment was a nice touch to the play yard.

Very useful product that grows with your child

Just as expected the Pack and Play on the go Zip playground did not disappoint. I have received this product from Stellar reviews panel in return for my honest feedback. It is very easy to install and take apart - perfect for sleepovers at Nana's, any travel and even for those afternoon naps. This particular model holds the mattress up with a zippered mesh rather than the hooks so when you try to move the pack and play the mattress doesn't wiggle and rock as much. The mattress also goes all the way down to turn it into a playpen which I can't wait to use once my baby is able to crawl and play around. My son loves looking at the little dangling stars and he is always trying to reach for them. It has wheels which makes it easy to move around as needed. I would 100% always recommend this product as a must have for every baby registry!

Perfect pack n play

I received the Graco Pack n Play On the Go Zip Playard through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The pack n play’s design is very functional and sleek. I loved that the playard can be used for infants with the bassinet feature, keeping them safe and secure (while also giving your back a break) and then for toddlers on the lower setting. Overall, the pack n play is very easy to setup and breakdown—I didn’t even have to look at the instructions!—and comes with a carry bag making it perfect for travel. My little guy slept great it in for naps when we were at my parents and in laws houses and I love how soft the fabric is on his extra sensitive baby skin. It is also perfect to put my baby in to play safely and be able to watch him while I make dinner and such. I would definitely recommend this pack n play for all of the features mentioned and the amazing quality.

I recurved this pack and play as a product to test from Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I was very pleased! The pack and play was delivered just in time for me for travel to my mother’s house for the weekend, with my one year old toddler. I find it to be light weight and good quality. I love the colors too! My toddler slept great in its soft and safe mattress. I love the addition of the zip-in infant bassinet, though we didn’t need to use it with my toddler. It was easy to remove, I would love to use it with a second baby in the future. This pack and play was super easy to set up and take down, which is a necessity for travel in my opinion. I was able to set it up, take it down, pack it away, and carry it all by myself. We have a different pack and play that is physically way too heavy for just myself to tote around, and I always need my husband or step dad to carry it for me when traveling. This Graco Pack and Play has changed the game for me! I am very satisfied with it, and highly recommend it! Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel, and Thank you Graco!

Comfortable and convenient

Carseat

I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The look of this playard is sleek and modern. It doesn’t stand out against our more modern ascetic of grey, white, and black which I absolutely love! Previous playards we’ve owned have always had very thin uncomfortable “mattresses” but this one is padded and extremely comfortable for our little guy. He doesn’t roll around as much and seems to get a more restful night of sleep. One of the best parts is the zip in bassinet. With our first baby the bassinet part of her playard just clipped on the sides and I was overly anxious it would collapse but the zipper on this playard is sturdy and secure. I don’t have to worry about it collapsing with my son. The hanging stars are a nice touch and I love that the bar is removable so I can use them for play but take them down at bedtime. The only con I could find was setting it up and taking it down. I had to wrestle it quite a few times to get all the sides to lock and not have the center collapse. While trying to take it down I had the opposite problem of struggling to get the sides to unlock. Overall though this playard is a dream and the perfect place for my babe to rest while we room share. It folds up nicely and is light weight enough to throw in the car for a safe, comfortable, and convenient place for baby to nap or play while going to grandma’s for the day or a weekend getaway with the kids. This will definitely be an item I’d gift to any first time mom who wants to room share or a mama who just wants a smaller safe space to let baby play while they get a few things done.

Perfect Pack And Play

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard. I am in love with this pack and play! I love the look, colors, and design. It is definitely high quality. I’m not a fan of colored pack and plays so this one was perfect. The fabric and mattress pad is so comfortable and buttery soft that my little one enjoys everytime I have her play in it or even take a nap. I also loved the fact that it is so easy to open and fold back up and it comes with a carry on bag! Trips to grandparents have become a lot easier. I have had 2 other pack and plays but this one by far was the easiest to open and fold. My baby likes the 3 soft stars that it came with as well. The zip in full bassinet did not work for us because we have an 8 month old who is rolling but it definitely looks sturdy if you have a newborn. It’s extremely easy to transition from infant to toddler. I can’t say enough good things about this pack and play. I would 100% recommend it to family and friends!

Did not know I needed this

So grateful to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this playard. It is AMAZING. I have experience with older versions of this brand and my goodness, the updates are top notch. It continues to be easy to set up and take down. It’s so easy to move from place to place in my home to give baby a quiet place to sleep or some peace/quiet/alone time away from pets and sibling, or to being closer to the family activities. The fabric is so soft and smooth. The color is neutral and easy on the eyes; I love that it is solid/no pattern. The bassinet is a game changer. It allows baby to be present during family times, such as supper, nearly eye level but awake and playing independently, so easy to make eye contact and interact. I appreciate the ease of installing or removing the bassinet. Baby seems so secure in the bassinet, able to roll and play without causing any anxious feelings that baby may fall through or out. Love that the zipper pull is enclosed! The comfort level of the mattress is out of this world and significantly improved from my experience with previous models!

Amazing, easy to move around the house.! We love i

This product about a month ago and I am so happy with is very compact and doesn’t take up much space, making it easy to store when not in use. The ergonomic design makes it comfortable and convenient to use for extended periods. Its portability is a major advantage, as it is lightweight and easy to carry from place to place. From a safety standpoint, it feels well-designed and secure during use. The stability is impressive, providing confidence that it will stay in place and perform reliably. Overall, it’s a practical and well-designed product that combines convenience, comfort, and safety.

Great play yard poor quality carry bag

Vicki125

I reached out to Graco after the zipper on the carry bag ongour original pack n play broke . The play yard was used for our grandchild who’s 3 now. The play yard is only as good as the carry bag in my opinion. We were unable to obtain a complimentary bag and since a replacement bag was 1/2 the pric of a new play yard on sale I opted to purchase a new one for my grandbaby born 12/2024. The zipper on the new play yard has broken also after just 3 uses. Graco uses a PLASTIC zipper pull for these 20 lb play yards. I’m sooo disappointed in the quality. And no- I won’t be buying another one- not from Graco anyway.

Happy I chose Graco! Pack n Play On The Go Play

As soon as I saw it, I had to buy it. It’s Graco, so, I felt good about my purchase It’s durable and easy to put up and take down and I’ve been moving it from room to room. The zip around mattress is sturdy and soft and my baby sleeps comfortably. I love it and, happily, my new grand-baby loves it too!

Pack n Play On the Go Zip Playard is it Worth it

M0m0f10

As part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, I had the chance to test out the Pack 'n Play On the Go Zip Playard. Overall, it’s a solid product with some great features, but it also has a few drawbacks that are worth considering. Let’s start with the positives. The setup was surprisingly easy and quick, which is a huge win for busy parents. The “On the Go” aspect is definitely accurate – it folds up compactly and comes with a convenient carrying bag, making it ideal for travel or moving from room to room. I also really appreciated the zip-off bassinet feature. It felt secure and provided a comfortable space for my newborn to nap. The mesh sides offer excellent visibility, allowing me to keep a close eye on my little one. However, there were a few things I wasn’t completely thrilled with. While the setup was easy, the takedown took a bit more effort and felt less intuitive. I had to consult the instructions a couple of times to get it folded correctly. Also, while the bassinet is great for newborns, I’m not sure how long it will remain useful as my baby grows. The playard itself is a good size, but the mattress pad felt a little thin and could benefit from some extra padding for added comfort. Finally, the carrying bag, while convenient, felt a bit flimsy and I worry about its long-term durability. In summary, the Pack 'n Play On the Go Zip Playard is a decent option for parents looking for a portable and versatile playard. The easy setup, zip-off bassinet, and compact fold are definite pluses. However, the slightly challenging takedown, thin mattress pad, and potentially flimsy carrying bag are things to keep in mind. It’s a good product, but not without its flaws. I’d recommend it with the caveat that you might want to invest in a thicker mattress pad for added comfort.

Perfect for parents on the go

Where to even begin with this amazing item. The Pack 'n Play On The Go Zip Playard has been an amazing addition to our household and a staple for family outings. The pack and play is not only stylish but it’s revolutionary soft fabrics and mattress was a huge hit for my 9 month old. He is currently in the stage of wanting to sit up on his own and trying to stand so although we didn’t get to test the bassinet feature with my little one due to safety concerns. I did test the bassinet feature and it was easy to attach and zip up the bassinet which then brings the child closer to the added toys that are provided for fun interactions. Now for the functionality of the pack and play has been fairly easy. We love taking it on the go as going to the park is our weekend outing for my 5 year old and the pack and play is simple to break down and go, especially since the mattress is what actually holds everything together without even needing to slip on the carrying case. Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing me to review the item.

  • Comprehensive comparison of 26 Graco Pack 'n Play models

    The Graco On the Go is the simplest and cheapest option. It’s lightweight and easy to fold with the push-button. If you just need a basic playard for occasional travel, this is the one. It comes with a bassinet and a toy bar. Downsides: the mattress is thin and it doesn’t have a changer.

  • Recommendation request for which Pack 'n Play to choose

    I’d go with the On the Go. It’s the easiest to set up and take down. We got one with a changing table and ended up never using it because it was too bulky. The On the Go is all you really need unless you travel constantly and want something super compact.

  • Using the On the Go as a primary bassinet/crib

    We used the On the Go as our baby’s primary sleep space in our one-bedroom apartment. The bassinet was great for the first few months, but the mattress is pretty hard. We bought a separate 3-inch memory foam mattress to put in it once he outgrew the bassinet, and it’s been perfect.
