So glad we bought this!
So glad we purchased this bassinet! There are so many choices when it comes to bassinets so I spent a lot of time researching! We actually purchased a VERY expensive “smart” bassinet that people rave about and our baby absolutely hated it! There were some things about it that I didn’t love either, so I wanted to make sure our new bassinet had the functional things instead of the “smart” features. I love that this not only had mesh sides but you can see through them! I spent a lot of time getting out of bed a night to look into the other bassinet and with this, I don’t have to get out of bed, I can see right through the sides to make sure the baby is okay. I also like how large the bassinet is because it makes me feel confident that the baby won’t somehow get stuck up against the side (even though if he somehow managed that, like I said the sides are mesh anyway). I also love the storage basket under the bassinet, I can put my breastfeeding pillow and burp clothes with lots of room to spare. Overall it’s a very simple design but it is soooo functional. It’s very light weight, which is nice to be able to move it easily. At first because it was so light weight, I thought it felt a little rickety, but once we actually used, I have no worries at all about it not being stable. It does not come with sheets but Maxi Cosi actually recommends to not use a sheet and the mattress cover and mattress itself are washable. Also their customer service is wonderful so if you a new mattress, just contact them. As far as worries about the comfort of the mattress, my baby had no issues with it and I will tell you, it’s got more cushion that the one from the previous really expensive bassinet we had. Hope this helps!

Honestly shocked thus bassinet isn’t rated #1 in bassinets
Update: our baby is 5.5 months old now and we have loved every minute of having this bassinet.We ordered the bassinet for our third baby and while we haven’t put it to the test yet, I do have quite a bit of experience in baby gear and I am blown away by this product. First of all, I wouldn’t mind it staying in here even after it’s needed because it’s really a beautiful piece of furniture. It matches our decor and doesn’t look like a giant contraption that we can’t wait to get rid of. Secondly, it was extremely easy and straightforward to assemble. No instructions required. Third, it’s very lightweight but very sturdy and clearly built very well. I feel so good about having it before our babies arrival and looking back on how much I was debating between this and some other bassinets, I could not be more grateful that I ended up choosing this one. I read a lot of people were frustrated about how this bassinet does not come with sheets, but it comes with a cover for the mattress that can be cleaned between uses and I don’t see that being a problem. Definitely not something that would stop me from thinking this is an excellent purchase, and the cover for the mattress seems extra comfortable (more of a pro, not a con.) pretty sure this is my first Amazon review but I had to take the time to write it because of how impressed I am. If I knew how great this thing was, I would’ve saved myself a lot of time doing so much research trying to figure it out myself, so I hope this helps anyone who is looking.

Love it!
I was reading up on bassinets when I was pregnant with my second child. & for the money I think this bassinet is gold! My daughter has been in it as a newborn (purple onesie) til now and she is going on to 4 months (brown dress) & she still fits in perfectly. It’s very sturdy with the base and has a roomy bottom where I put all her sleep wear and blankets/swaddles& small basket for dirty clothes. Its goes up and down 3 levels and slides to either side to get it closer to the bed if you want to. I have the mobile toy from the playpen we use with my other child and it fits perfects on the side. Absolutely love this and I recommend it to other parents. It’s not super heavy and it brings a bag for travel which it is easy to breakdown for on the go purposes.

Great size and design
Easy assembly, not too heavy, not too light. The design is beautiful. The size is what was most attractive for us. My 6 week old was getting tight in the moses basket (pictures for comparison added) and this is the perfect transition. The mesh is good and safe but I added a skirt on the outside that we used on the moses basket because I want the baby to have more privacy and feel more in a cozy spot. Plus it hides the basket. The basket underneath is great and can hold a lot. The mattress is nice and appears to have a waterproof removable sleeve, but is a bit of an odd size. As another customer said, changing pad cover fit well as a sheet. I used a burt’s bees terry cover I had. All in all we love this and hope to use it for several months until we transition our baby to a floor mattress once sleeping through the night.

Beautiful Bassinet
FTM not ready to have the little one in a crib just yet. When he outgrew his newborn bassinet I needed to find something solid and large to last until crib-ready. Not worried about having him level with the bed, we opted for the Lora which I was checking out since I created my registry. It did not disappoint. Beautiful piece, feels like furniture, great quality, comes with travel bag. Baby had no issue sleeping through the night on this when used for the first time at 12 weeks. Mattress pad was better than I expected based on reviews. What works for one baby may not work for all, but this was worth the $ for us. Various heights to choose from.

Nice design; size and stability concerns
Pro: the bassinet is beautifully designed and a large size that will allow us to keep our baby in our room for likely up to 4-5 months due to its size.Cons: 1) the bassinet is really deep and can be difficult for a more petite person (under 5’4″) to pick up and drop off the baby. 2) the bassinet is not sturdy and seems to tilt from side to side without the baby. It is fine if the baby does not move much but that’s not realistic. It could just be the one we received.
