“I bought it on offer up for $600, used it for 4 months, loved it (baby slept so well in it, and I was definitely getting 5-7 hour chunks of sleep pretty quickly), and sold it on offer up for $600. Was it worth it? Yes.”

“We got a Halo Bassinest from a family member who was done with it. They had the Luxe Swivel Sleeper version. So far, we've been really happy with the bassinet, it gets right up close to the bed, the push down wall is super nice - but we definitely don't use the "luxe" features. So, some of their other models may work just as well!”

“A $70 Grace pack and play with the additional mattress level feature. Will last you through the very short bassinet phase and then work for travel for years. Or a safe play space.”
