   Bought it because of the lower price. Now I know why it is cheaper. After using it about ten times, the side latch broke. Now I am stuck with it, can't get a refund so am going to have to buy another one. Buy a Graco. not an Evenflo.

   This is a wonderful product. My son and daughter-in-law purchased a Graco Pack and Play that will not move from room to room because they can't get it through the doors. This one is easy to assemble, very sturdy, and lays flat for the baby to sleep. I couldn't be happier and would recommend this product to anyone. Mine came with a changer that is working well. A fantastic buy for the money.

   I bought this product on sale for $40 and it is still not worth the money! I had it replaced because the bottom would not lock...and they sent me another one that would NOT lock. Also, you can not use sheets with this mat because of where the velcro for the mat to connect to the bottom is connected. So, if you get one that is locking correctly...and you don't want to use a sheet for when baby spits up/has accidents etc...then this product might be worth your money!

   My daughter slept in the bassinet part of this play yard until we moved her into her room. This 'mattress' seemed softer than others I had looked at but apparently was not as sturdy and began to sag long before she was 15 pounds (which is the weight limit for the bassinet). I called the company and they replaced it (after the standard time allowed, which was very considerate of them) but the replacement also began to sag: this is when we gave up and moved Baby to her crib. (My sister has the Graco play yard she purchased for her first 5+ years ago and my daughter didn't roll to the middle of that one.) Also the mattress rattled against the battery pack when the vibrator was on. The bassinet part of the play yard holds my only complaints, though!

   I have to admit, bought this one purely on looks (ours has a different fabric pattern/color, but the same faux wood). Would not buy again because: 1. Changing table leans to the unsupported side (even with our 8 lb newborn). I assume this will get even worse as the baby gets heavier; 2. Sleep platform severely sags in the middle. We can only position baby in certain places, otherwise his head will end up below his feet; 3. Canopy constantly pops off. The clips are insufficient, and they need to be snapped in after popping off every time we adjust the canopy; 4. Vibration motor rattles against sleep platform. It's loud- had to stuff towels in there to buffer; and 5. Music/sounds are too loud. The lowest setting is disruptive when baby is in light sleep. Bottom line- looks good, doesn't work so good, overpriced given its shortcomings. Look elsewhere.
