My mom grabbed this for me second hand. I had a basic pack and play with my first but she thought this would give me some extra flexibility with changing and napping. I wasn't sure I'd really use it at first but it has been nice not to have to do night time changes on the floor since my oldest has the changing table in her room. We keep it in our family room and it gives us a convient space to set baby down, use during naps and change throughout the day. I love that it is washable. It makes me feel better getting second hand knowing I can completely clean it. Its also nice since babies can be messy and a lot can get on it, its so much easier to clean. The removable changing pad cover makes it easy to wash when things get too messy during diaper changes. I wish the basinett part was a little easier to remove for washing but i understand safety concerns during sleep make that a little more challenging to design. The bassinet is at an incline so sometimes baby scoots down funny but she seems to enjoy sleeping in it for the most part. Like most baby sleeping spaces it doesnt seem very cushiony as far as comfort goes but thats to be expected. As i mentioned with the bassinet part some things are more difficult to remove to wash but overall its pretty easy. Make sure to look at the instructions, i originally tried to just put it together on my own and was way off on attaching some things. The directions make it easy. While my childs using the attachable bassinet and changing table im taking advantage of the lower spots to store items. The hanging storage on the side is nice and can be used for different things. Were currently using it to store changing supplies. The deep pocket has worked great for storing 2 layers of diapers size NB and 1 so far. It can fit an entire small pack and a full sleeve of the medium sized packs. Overall it seems very durable and the washing aspect helps add to its life span and the ability to pass along to someone else. I think my biggest struggle will be figuring out how to store the bassinet and changing pad when were past the weight limit or storing between kids.
