Halo - Bassinest 3.0 Swivel Sleeper Soothing - gray

My husband and I had an original Halo BassiNest a few years ago with our oldest, and we found it heavy and a little awkward to use. We received the new 3. 0 from Stellar Product Review Panel, and I'm so happy to say the 3. 0 BassiNest Soothing Swivel Sleeper is a huge improvement! While this bassinet has a large footprint and may not be best for tiny spaces, it's still high quality without being so heavy that it's hard to move. The design is so aesthetically pleasing and functional. The front wall used to be clunky and hard to bend down so you could soothe/touch Baby, but the new front wall gently moves down with ease. The entire bassinet part rotates 360* on the stand so moving Baby close to you is simple, and moving Baby away to get in/out of bed is just as easy. The bassinet vibrates, features a nightlight, and has gentle sounds. Our baby loves the vibrations and sounds, and the light is perfect for middle of the night feeds and diaper changes. The walls are mesh all the way around so you won't worry about how Baby is breathing. Everything is machine washable, so you also won't worry about spit up or blow outs ruining your bossinet. The matress is slim and comes with a snug cover so there's no loose fabric to swallow Baby up. Another great feature we love is that the top “bed” part easily unlocks from the base so you can move the bassinet around the house to keep Baby close to you. There are also several accessories made specifically for the BassiNest such as a cozy newborn insert and extra sheets, so make sure you check those out on Halo's website as well. My only complaint (albeit minor) is that the base on this is large and requires a lot of floor space, but otherwise I'd highly recommend the Halo BassiNest 3. 0 to any parents with a new baby. We love it, Baby loves it, and it's definitely made our lives a little easier.

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bassinet. It was such a great bassinet for a newborn. The ability to have my baby right next to me for all those early morning wake ups is a game changer. I don't even have to sit up to give her a pacifier in the night and pulling her from the bassinet is a breeze with the collapsible bar. It's also such a great feature the bassinet can come off so I can use this anywhere in the house when I need a place for her to play. Highly recommend this bassinet, you will not be disappointed!

I did not know that I could be this excited about a bassinet! Right out of the box, I was impressed with the quality and the look of the bassinet. It was super easy to put together, and my toddler had fun helping me. The design is really nice! It looks very sleek, and while the base has a pretty large footprint to ensure it doesn't tip over, it does not look overwhelming in our room. My baby seemed very comfortable in the bassinet right away. She usually has trouble sleeping, but I was able to get her to sleep with a little light rocking and the soothing sounds so much more easily than usual! My favorite things about this bassinet are 1) I LOVE the swivel! It is so convenient to move it over the bed or swivel it away. It helps me ensure my baby is safely sleeping in her space, but is still super accessible to me. 2) Speaking of being accessible, I love the push down wall. It makes it so easy to reach in and grab her without having to fuss with anything. One thing I haven't done yet is convert to a portable nest, but I love that it is an option! Overall, I highly recommend this for all the little babes! Note: I received the product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel!

To start, I am a mom of three little ones. I always pour over every word of reviews when it comes to searching for new baby products, and like all mamas, I of course want the absolute best in home for my boys. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly my husband was able to assemble this while baby & I watched. It takes no more than 10 minutes from box opening to the last step of adding batteries; as parents know, anything without a million little pieces and difficult directions is a win! The best features of this BassiNest 3. 0 Soothing Swivel Sleeper? First, the ease and distance between its lowest and highest setting to fit next to your bedside. It simply glides up or down and snaps into place. Baby is safe to “cosleep” essentially in bed with you, while still being protected and following the ABC's of Safe Sleep: Alone, on the Back, and in a Crib. The photo I attached of a blanket on the side is for aesthetic purposes and/or when I am watching baby; I do not condone loose blankets. This BassiNest does it all. The front side bends with ease for you to reach over and grab baby when needed, and the buttons are large and easy to differentiate, allowing you to adjust the light, vibrate setting, or various white noise settings to soothe your little one. It is also machine washable! I was shocked at how quickly my newborn took to it. We couldn't be happier. The only notes I will list are that the detachable bassinet feature for room to room is a must, especially if you have more than one floor like we do. The BassiNest has very wide legs that are difficult to fit to an average door- but for us, this is no problem, as we leave it in the master bedroom and detach the top bassinet to take downstairs with the bigger kids if needed. Note: I received this bassinet from the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for this review. Thank you Halo for making an amazing product!

I really like using this bassinet. I think my favorite features are the mesh around the bassinet (which makes it easy for them to breath if laying up next to the side) as well as the bar that moves up and down (this makes it so easy to pick him up to feed during the night). I also prefer this bassinet over one that has the side down next to the bed. I feel like having the adjustable bar makes it way safer! My little boy seems to be comfortable sleeping in the bassinet. The only downside we have seen is that we sometime bump our feet on the stand. Overall the quality seems great and it is a convenient product as it isn't to bulky. I received this product as part of the stellar product testing panel.
