Way handier than I ever expected, and the bouncer is fantastic!
This is a pretty deluxe package. I have two playards - one by Infantino and also this one. First of all they are very similar feature-wise with adjustable floor heights (the higher floor height is called a bassinet), changing stations and infant seats. The difference is the Graco infant seat/bouncer is removable. Also, it is different from standard bouncers in that the baby is in more of a bucket vs. an upright, reclined position. This is great! It's like a cousin of the Rock n Play Sleeper but it's smaller and way more portable for going room to room. Fabrics are plush and the quality is good, overall I'd say a notch above Infantino. The unit itself (without the bassinet/changer) goes together in just a few minutes. However, it takes a while to put the other parts together, so don't plan to just pop this out of the box and have it all done in a snap! There are several parts requiring some assembly and it took us ~1.5hours of stop and go working on it. The whole playard rolls fairly easily for moving around the room. We have used it as a bed and the baby really likes being able to see through the meshy sides. The playard floor/bed surface is much nicer than the Infantino. It's sewn in a diamond quilt pattern is probably 3x cushier than the competition. So far, I don't see the need for a mattress insert for this model (where an insert is absolutely a must for Infantino). One of the features I really like on this Graco... the lights on the electronics module. There are two lights, one that shines up and another that shines into the playard. This is great for checking on the baby in a very dark room! Also, there is a timer for the music so it won't be playing forever if you don't want it to - it's set for 5, 10, and 15 mins. If you're on the fence about getting one of these, it's a really great choice because of the plusher cushioning and the bouncer - it's like a 2-for-1. Having an extra place for baby to play and sleep is handy (and we never expected that we'd ever use one - but we use it all the time). Highly recommend - I hope this is helpful!
