Review on 🧸 Ingenuity Smart and Simple Packable Portable Playard with Changing Table - Ridgedale: Versatile and Convenient Baby Essential by Christine Smith

We bought this for our baby to sleep in during the day because the cot is upstairs in our bedroom but we are usually downstairs during the day. My kid didn't like the little sleeper but I didn't get any package and sleeper game. It seems to be quite durable and while we haven't traveled with it yet I can see it holding up well when travelling. The changing table is good and I love that it has side pockets for storing tissues, nappies etc. The only thing I don't like about the changing table is that it is very difficult to take off. It's designed to snap onto the backpack and play so you can swaddle the baby, but then detach and hang to the side and to the side when the baby is in the backpack and playing. This way you don't have to drop and replace the enite table every time. However, it takes quite a bit of force to pull it out so that it hangs overboard, although I'm glad it's secure and doesn't slip, it takes both hands and a lot of tugging to take it off (and I'm not frail) what seems a bit exaggerated. It is good to be able to wash the material of the mat and changing table. However, they also clean up well with a washcloth, so you really only need to throw them in the wash once in a while. The changing table and mat have solid insert panels to keep them from bending when your baby is on them. If you have a child at a higher level, there is a mesh net with straps that are pulled up and then you put the mat on it. It's secure but wobbles a bit when you move. However, if your child is mobile enough to make this an issue, you should still lower the mat to the floor. In a way, it's even pleasant, because then you can shake the child, so to speak. You need to center the mat properly when you place it on the net or it will lean towards an edge, but it just takes a few extra seconds in assembly to make sure it's flat. It stays in place well so you don't have to constantly adjust it. The mat itself has some cushioning but is still pretty hard. Newborns usually like and need a hard surface to sleep on. My baby slept on it for about 2 months. As she got older she didn't seem to sleep either and I assumed she was having a hard time. For safety and liability reasons, the manufacturer warns against using mattresses other than those supplied. I bought her a mattress as she only sleeps on it. If you decide to buy a mattress, make sure it fits snugly so your child can't get stuck in it. The 38 x 26 mattress is perfect for us. Overall this is a good, solid package and game.
