We use this bassinet as baby's main sleep/chill-out space around the clock. We use it for overnight sleep in freestanding bassinet mode (we have a platform bed so can't use it as a co-sleeper). During the early AM when baby is noisy, we roll the bassinet into the living room so one of us can catch some more zzz's in the bedroom while the other stays with baby. During the day, we wheel baby between rooms depending on where we are. We use the fold-down arm when baby's big sis wants to say hi. This bassinet has a mesh pocket on each of the short sides, which we use for extra swaddles. In the basket, we have diapering supplies, extra body suits, and extra sheets, which have come in handy in those early AM hours because people are sleeping in the rooms where we normally keep that stuff. Minor complaints and limitations: There is a lot of velcro-ing to put this thing together, and some seemingly superfluous pieces -- I don't think the top bars need to be covered by fabric, and the "wings" on the basket corners don't seem to do very much. The space between the bottom of the sleeping surface and the top of the basket is not that wide, so it can be difficult to see and access the things in the basket. Finally, while the bassinet is portable within a home and we regularly take it up/down a couple stairs in our split-level, I personally wouldn't want to lug it up and down a lot of stairs on a daily basis (e.g. if your home has multiple floors). It also doesn't collapse for travel.

I just received my Arms Reach mini ezee co sleeper after capitalizing on the Black Friday deals and am very happy because it actually exceeds my expectations. I researched tons of bassinets with safety, comfort, and size being my main priorities. I felt confident in the safety of this bassinet, and the smaller size was ideal for my household with this being my second child (I couldn't exactly devote every square inch to her like I did the first time around). However, the big question for me was comfort. I'm a stickler for following the safe sleep rules and using only the bedding and accessories that correspond to the bassinet so I focused a lot on the different mattresses that went with each bassinet. I found that most bassinet mattresses suck. We had a Halo bassinet with my first and she never slept a wink in it. What good is a bassinet if you can't use it? What I decided to do, and am very happy with the results, is buy the mattress protector pad and the plush sheets that match the mini ezee. The mattress protector adds a layer of cushion, evening out the mattress pad and the plush sheets are so soft and cushy. Bassinet mattresses are firm regardless but adding the two accessories really improves the comfort. Needless to say I was confident about the safety and loved the compact size of this bassinet beforehand, but now I'm confident that it's going to be a comfortable little bed for my new baby girl when she gets here. Also, it was a breeze to set up at 8 months pregnant.

Baby is due in a few short weeks so I may update my review with our lived findings, but so far, I'm very impressed with this bassinet. After researching many, many co-sleeping options, we arrived at the conclusion that this bassinet was going to be the best. One of the driving reasons, besides design integrity, was the length of the Mini Ezee. So many baby cribs are sooo large, that it would be difficult for me, Mama, to get up without scooting down the mattress to the foot of my own bed. This will make for a more ergonomic--and sane--co-sleeping experience. Due to our bed being rather low, we didn't need to purchase the height-adjusting feet. Set-up instructions were very clear, making assembly a seamless process. I'm impressed with the lack of wrinkles on the mattress sheet, and feel very safe about the design. The lowering side wall is straightforward and the ideal height for our bed. One of my favorite features has to be the two wheeled feet that you can place on one end or the other of the bassinet. It stands stably in place normally, but by lifting the opposite end of the bassinet, the cosleeper becomes mobile EVEN ON CARPET. This will be incredibly practical since we purchased this particular model for its compatibility as a portable play crib (when mattress is removed), so that I can have our little one with us in the kitchen or other areas of the house when she is a bigger, more mobile baby. Very pleased with this product! Already highly recommending to friends :)

I was hopeful about this bedside bassinet because it scoots under the bed, looks nice, and is recommended by one of my favorite scientists (Dr. James McKenna). However, after assembling and using it for 2.5 months, I have determined that it's not a good product - for several reasons. First, it wobbles really bad, making it feel like a cheap product with poor design. Second, the mobile looks/feels cheap too. Not only that, but the toys that are included on the mobile are not developmentally appropriate. Where's the black/white high-contrast objects that are facing TOWARD the newborn's face to be appealing? Third, our bed and mattress are standard height and it barely fits under the bed on the highest option. We'd have to buy extenders to make it really work. At the moment, our baby slides to one side because the bed is slanted (due to it not fitting under/on top of our mattress). And finally, the music box has extremely limited options and runs out of batteries quickly. You also can't tell what volume you're on or which tune you've chosen unless you cycle through using the buttons. Come on... get with modern technology, Arm's Reach! Seems like this product didn't go through sufficient quality control and testing with actual parents. DON'T BUY. YOU'LL REGRET IT!

We love our new bassinet! Our baby grew out of a loaner bassinet that is from a larger pack n play set. We weren’t sure what we were looking for and found this at a local retailer. Here is what we have enjoyed about the bassinet after one week of use: 1. We live in a small apartment and this is a bit larger than we wanted but it’s great because we can wheel it around as needed - even into another room for a darker nap space. The size has ended up working for us. 2. The assembly was so easy with easy instructions. We bought the leg stands - we haven’t attached them yet because right now we are just using it as a freestanding bassinet for now. But it’s nice to have the option. 3. Baby loves the space to move around - he got mad in the old bassinet when he realized he could touch all the sides. 4. The mesh sides! Love this! No more creeping up the bassinet to see if the baby is sleeping and then waking him up with our creaky floors. 5. Everything you need comes with the bassinet - no need to register/purchase a mattress, a sheet, etc. 6. Tons of safety features to protect the baby. They really thought of everything! Thank you so much, Arm’s Reach! We look forward to using this for years to come : )

This bedside bassinet was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Having my baby in arms reach(pun intended) took a million pounds of stress and sleepless nights off my back. Unfortunately my baby is now at the age limit where we have to switch to a crib and Im not going to lie my postpartum anxiety is starting to kick in because I loved having him this close to me. I know I can put a crib next to me but I can’t just roll over and look at him anymore the same way i do with the bassinet and I’m going to miss that the most. I will always recommend this bassinet to everybody. I suffer from postpartum anxiety so badly, this bassinet helped me so much during these stressful times with things such as SIDs to terrify us new parents. I also have separation anxiety with the baby and this helped me relax more than anything else possibly could have. I was a little salty when I saw that after I spent over $500 on mine, there suddenly were plenty of the same model available for $200 and under lol. Still well worth the price I paid for the relief it brought. So from a new mama, thank you so much Arms Reach. You helped me more than you’ll ever imagine. I can’t wait to bust this thing out when we have another baby.

My family bought us this mini co-sleeper for our first born who is just now 11 weeks old. We thought it would be easy and convenient to use as its mini and convenient to travel with. That part was true, however, after taking it down and putting together just twice, the lock broke and we were unable to reassemble the bassinet any longer. After reaching out to customer service, we were basically told we were suddenly assembling the bassinet wrong (after we’ve already successfully done it multiple times) and that we would have to video call for them to “walk us through it”. Not sure how that’s supposed to work when the lock is physically broken but okay I’ll humor you. After having that conversation we offered to just buy the broken piece, and we were met with a snarky customer service agent who claims that our bassinet isn’t broken. Save yourself the time, the money, and the attitude you’ll get when trying to resolve the issue. This product will only be for you if you like cheaply made unsafe products for your baby, and employees who could care less if your child falls through there bassinet or not. My family and friends will no longer be loyal customers to this brand.

As a first-time mom, I went through HUNDREDS of reviews of different bedside bassinets. The Arm's Reach Cambria came up with all of the features I loved from different bassinet models. I love that this one has a strap that shores up the bassinet right to the side of the bed, yet can be easily detached and rolled into another room. It has ample storage underneath, and I just might buy the diaper bag that clips onto the side for additional storage. Has eliminated the need for me to buy a rolling cart for bedside in addition to the bassinet. Another big deal to me was the ability to bring the side down for easy access to baby or put it up based on our needs. I got the white/espresso color, and it matches the dark wood in our bedroom perfectly. My husband assembled it in literally less than 10 minutes, and that includes the time he took to get it out of the box in the first place. I'm 35 weeks, and we can't wait to welcome our little girl. I feel really secure and confident and ready to bring her home with this bassinet. So glad I found it before purchasing another, cheaper one I was looking at. This is DEFINITELY worth the price!! Just buy it.

Why I think the Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper brand bassinet is "IT." How awesome is this ~ not having to get up in the middle of the night and walk 3/4's asleep down the hall to the babies room to get (them) out of the crib and sit in a cold, wooden rocking chair that you keep meaning to get a comfy warm cushion for and feed your wee little one's as you rock softly and find yourself as well as your angel/s nodding off half way through the feeding. How special it is to awaken "softly" and roll over to your baby or babies and feed them quietly, warmly and calmly feeling the loving effect of having them close and not trudging down that long ... lonely ... dark hallway yet once again. How special to have your baby or babies close to you and in person rather then a cold, static speaker box that never can be set just the right volume. How special to have your angels safe, warm, and snug right along side you ~ the next best thing to when they were safe, warm, and snug inside of you ... the Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper brand bassinet is every parent's "dream come true" to have a healthy, fresh beginning of what matters the most, the little ones. .....

I wanted to love this bassinet! We used it for our first child for four months with no issues. Our second baby was born and we used it for two months with no issues, until one morning when baby awoke there was a deep dent where her head was resting. It concerned me that it dented so quickly, when it had been fine prior to that. I put her head at the other end the next night and it was dented by morning. After multiple calls and emails to the company with pictures of the defective mattress, they would not replace the mattress for me. I would not recommend this product or company. The bassinet only got six months of use out of it before it was very unsafe for a baby to sleep in. I now have to find another place for my little one to sleep that is safe if she rolls over. Baby gear is not cheap! Save your money and go with a brand that will guarantee their products longer than six months! They probably won’t post this on their website, so I’m writing reviews every place I can to warn new parents that this mattress is unsafe and not worth the investment!

Shipment was swift and assembly reasonably easy with a well-structured manual. We are happy with this co-sleeper. We love being able to just take it around the apartment on the wheels or attach it to the bed as needed. The interior is very roomy and for my husband it is still easily possible to carry the bed around with our infant in it to not disturb his sleep. We especially like how it is constructed around sleep safety with a firm mattress and good visibility. The pouches on the side are great for holding e.g. a sound machine. Here are a few negatives that keep this co-sleeper from getting a full score and could be addressed in future iterations: -the padding on the upper rails of the bed is too thin, it should be like me middle rung of the bed facing side everywhere -the wheels often find themselves accidentally in the fixed position which is notices halfway through moving the bed, there should be more resistance on the fixing levers We otherwise love this product and do recommend it for the value and sleep safety.

We were highly recommended the Arms Reach Mini Ezee 3-in-1 Co-sleeper and were so excited to receive it for our baby shower! On our initial use, we were excited about the co-sleeper for its convenience and mobility. However, soon after setting it up, we weren't able to get one of the arms to lock. After disassembling and assembling it for our first trip, another two arms were unable to lock. Now, we are concerned for our child's safety as the arms could cause the bassinet to collapse. We have tried to contact Arms Reach via phone and mail on a regular basis for the last month, but have not received any response back. Their phone lines default to a busy line, no matter what time of day we call. And no one responds to both our voice mails and writing. Although there is a warranty promised, it is unable to be upheld due to lack of customer service. Buyer beware! Although the product seems to be very capable, the inherent defect makes it a very dangerous product for any child, and the corporate communication is incredibly lacking.

There were several must-have items on my baby wishlist before the prospect of a little one was even in the picture. I heard about the benefits of co-sleeping as well as the risks. When I learned that there was a product that could mimic the benefits of co-sleeping while deterring the risks, I knew I had to have it. Fast forward a few years and our first little one being due any minute now, we made a small investment into purchasing an Arm's Reach Mini Ezee Co-Sleeper that fits perfectly on my side of the bed. We live in a studio apartment so I was delighted to learn that Arm's Reach had a mini version of their widely popular co-sleeper. Set up was incredibly easy and the product itself looks well constructed. I love that when our little one grows out of the co-sleeper/ bassinet mode, he can use still use the Mini Ezee Co-Sleeper as a small play yard. We can't wait to meet our little one and enjoy bonding with him and his new bed for the next several months will definitely be a part of that bonding experience.

One of the main things that sold me on this bassinet was that it was wood and just looked sturdy and classy (got the espresso). It was easy to assemble and does indeed look nice. One thing that I wish I had noticed, however, was the recommended bed height. The legs do adjust, but they do not go low enough for the recommended height for use as a co-sleeper with our bed; the top of the rail when it's down is supposed to be the same height or lower than the bed, and I don't consider our bed to be THAT low (there's some scary warning included about risk of injury to the baby if the side rail of the bassinet is higher than the bed, though honestly I worry more about it being level to or lower than the bed, as is the recommended use, and sheets getting into the bassinet and being a suffocation risk). Just wanted to mention the bed height point as I did not notice it in other reviews. Overall I still think it's a good product and will be well-used, but the scary warning caught me off guard.

After hours of searching for a quality bassinet and pack and play with not much luck, my sister finally suggested what she had used for her four kids, Arm's Reach. I am so grateful she shared this tip. She said it was one of the best purchases they could have made, and I can see why. We received ours the other day, and I can already tell it will be one of our best purchases as well. For one, it's portable, and we plan on moving it from room to room in our home. I also appreciate the lighter color option (as opposed to a dark gray or black). I can also tell that it will grow with our little one with being able to move the mattress to different levels. Lastly, I thought I was going to have to forgo the co-sleeper option because I didn't want to purchase a separate co-sleeper. This is an added bonus, and I'm sure I'll appreciate it during the late, long nights. All around, quality product and exactly what we were looking for!
