Review on Pro Goleem Blackout Breathable Stretchy by Colin Watkins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

elastic. Blocks light well. But some flaws.

1. It goes well beyond my Graco Pack n Play.2. It blocks the light - the photos were taken at night with just the light from my house and you can see the light coming through. They claim it blocks 80% of the light and I agree - it doesn't block 100%, the light gets in and the baby can still see outside / you go BUT for a daytime nap it takes it a step further . a trick to make everything darker, quieter and more sleepable.3. This is safer than putting blankets on or by the sides. CONSIDERATIONS: 1. If you have a diaper bin, will that cover it (or maybe put it somewhere else?).2. If you want 100% light blocking, this isn't your answer (not sure if there are any that block 100% and still remain breathable?)3. You have to tie the cover around your legs, which can be a bit awkward. The ties don't stretch. But it protects the lid. (Provided this is for safety so the child doesn't pull up/down the lid inside) 4. It's not possible to fully unzip the top - only a part that opens/closes with a zipper (like on mine and product photos shown). Which will be a little awkward when an infant/toddler gets up indoors. ::: My baby can't stand up yet, so this works fine. I don't know how it will be when she can stand. I like that one side opens BUT it's not that easy to take this case off and put it on top of the packaging and play as you have to tie the bottom shut. .So it prompts you to remove/remove the cover every time you use the backpack and need to play outside of bedtime, otherwise the kid can only get up in part of it. Before I got this I didn't quite think about how easy it was to turn this cover on and off since I was so focused on getting my bedtime dark. I get 5 stars for that. But using the pack and playing outside of sleep will be a bit difficult - hence the 3 stars. Pack n Play not while sleeping was as easy as using while sleeping.

Pros
