  • Pack 'n Plays are the Swiss Army knife of baby gear: they can be a bassinet, a play yard, a travel crib, and a changing station all in one.
  • Most models work from birth through toddlerhood, making them one of the most versatile and cost-effective pieces of baby gear you'll buy.
  • The bassinet insert is key for newborns. It raises the sleep surface so you don't have to bend all the way down, and it's perfect for room-sharing.
  • Focus on ease of setup, portability, and whether the features you're paying for (changing table, storage, etc.) actually match how you'll use it.
