The bassinet arrived when it said it would and putting it together was very easy and straightforward! I also left a video review. :)
The color is spot on with the picture.
It is sturdy and the legs were perfectly even so there was none of that awkward and annoying shifting movement that happens when legs are uneven.
The Zipper was not obnoxiously loud like I thought it was going to be. You do need to use two hands to zip it up because the covering (NOT the zipper) has stiffer framing but I wouldn't say that it was annoyingly so. My kids were able to do it themselves.
I do appreciate that the frame covering is stiff enough that if even one of our cats was to jump on the bassinet before I could catch them that it wouldn't collapse on the baby. Or if a child were to lean up against it there is no fear of it coming off or collapsing.
The only thing that I saw that could potentially be an issue over time is that once the bassinet is laid out the corners of the board pieces that the mattress lays on pokes the fabric a little bit harder than I would want it to but I think the easy fix there is that when the bassinet is folded in half you could gently file the corners of the wood so that they were more rounded. I cover this in my video review.
The whole board the mattress lays on itself at first seemed like it wasn't going to be very sturdy but once the frame was up it felt very secure. I feel like a baby would have to be really chunky and jumping up and down hard in it too make the hinges begin to bow downward.
The bassinet mattress is a typical one that if you wanted to add more padding to you could wrap a blanket around it. I felt that the bassinet was even on the bottom and I would feel comfortable placing my baby in it. The mattress pad also seemed pretty easily clean able.
The bassinet is of a good size and I would say if you have a smaller home or room this would be a good one because it's big enough to hold a baby but it's not so big that it feels like it takes up a lot of room. It's like one of those smaller cars that look small on the outside but turns out to be rather roomy on the inside.
There are no wheels to move it around but it's light enough to pick up and place where you want it so I don't find that to be an issue and folding it up to travel with it would be easy too. But don't mistake that it being light means that it's not sturdy because it definitely is sturdy!
