Chicco Lullaby Primo Organic Playard- Lakeshore

Easy to set up and collapse. Very sturdy and lightweight too.The netting is soft and I like the easy to install top changer.

Chico has always made beautiful baby goods with a focus on function and quality. I’ve had a Chico playpen/pack n play off and on for the last 10 years!It’s always my go to because they’re well sized, both for storing all the newborn madness and for actually fitting a sleeping toddler, have good ventilation, and the change table feature.This is a gorgeous example in a wonderful neutral color way: I expect to be able to give it to another new mom in a few years, knowing it will still be in great condition. Everything is washable, and thanksTo the new design, much more accessible.Like all things to do with parenthood, figuring out folding and unfolding takes awhile, you’ll get there! It is also a bit “stiff” out of the box, and takes folding and unfolding a few times to loosen up enough. It won’t always be difficult to do!Best of luck - and lots of sleep, new parents!

This took a while to put together and I had to read and re-read the directions to make sure I got it right. The difficult assembly means it will probably be a STAY and play versus a pack and play. I wouldn't want the hassle of taking it apart and setting it back up.That being said, it has been incredibly functional on our first floor as a diaper changing station and a place for baby to hang out while we're doing housework etc. He loves the mobile and the music/nature sounds. We love the parent organizer for diapers, wipes, burp clothes, extra outfits etc.
