Esthetics 10/10, but…
The swift play yard is esthetically pleasing and super easy to set up and take down, but the mattress is uncomfortable for my baby which makes sleeping in a new environment while traveling even more challenging. The mattress inserts have these awkward folds that line up with where my baby’s head typically rests while sleeping. That along with the firmness makes it challenging for my baby to stay comfortable for long. I was hoping to purchase a mattress insert, but the unique size is making it challenging to find one that will fit correctly (safely) within the pack and play. I wish I had of thought more about comfort when purchasing this rather than buying for style.

Response from doreljuvenile-maxicosi
Thanks for your review! We're sorry to hear the play yard fell vastly short of your expectations.
Best play yard!
Absolutely love this play yard. We bought it for our grandson and the difference in weight and quality between the swift and other brands is amazing. The swift is lighter, easier to open and store and the pad is thicker! Just buy it, you won't regret it!!!

Awesome Play Yard - Easy set up
This is a must have for those with a new baby. This was very simple to put up, and is made to last. You can take it with you wherever you go as it's very light weight. It has been a lifesaver while my mother watches the baby during the day at her home.

Wonderful Play Yard
This is our third child, so we've been through several play yards and bassinets over the years. Hands down, the Dorel Juvenile Group Swift Play Yard is our favorite yet! I love that it's a combination play-yard and bassinet in one, so I don't have to make two separate purchases. It folds down nicely for travel, too; whether we're on vacation or just traveling to Grandma's house. It looks and feels super sturdy, so I don't have to worry about it being wobbly. I also appreciate that it doesn't have big wheels. The last play yard we used had wheels and it always made me nervous that it would move around when my kids played in it. The breathable sides are a great feature, too, and makes me comfortable knowing that baby can breathe if they rolled to one side!

An Organized Mamma's Dream
My husband and I have four children 6 and under and the top two requirements for the baby gear that we buy is that it be durable and easy to use! The last Pack n Play we purchased was 7 years ago for our first child, which will be my point of reference to base my review for the Swift Play yard. -Lightweight: The first thing that I noticed is that the Swift Play Yard was easy for me to carry in one arm and is not excessively bulky. I am able to carry the play yard in its carrying case in one arm and my baby in the other. Our old pack n play weighs twenty pounds! No wonder I loathed having to lug it around. The Swift play yard weighs approximately 18 pounds, but its sleek design and the two pounds less seemed to make a big difference. -Ease of Use: The play yard folds up to store away and sets up for baby to play almost in one smooth motion. To open for use, is a little tricky at first. The play yard folds inward to be more compact which was hard for me to get used to at first, but after several uses it became second nature to open and close. To store away, after removing the mattress, pull up on the center and it easily tucks away. Durable and Stylish: The mattress does have some nice cushion to it and it seems to me, to be more comfortable for baby. I let her sit and play in our old pack and play and she didn't seem to care one way or the other regarding the firmness of the mattress (she is 8 months old). I love the details on the Swift Play Yard! The fabric for the bassinet feels very durable and is a modern dark gray. The support poles on the side are metal, but are wrapped to look like a soft wooden color, which does not look like faux wood unless one is looking very closely. It also does not have big bulky wheels similar to our old version, which I seemed to often stub my toes on. Ouch! Organization: The Swift Play Yard makes my type A heart So very happy. There is a pocket for the instruction manual built in to the back of the mattress so that I can easily find it and reference it when necessary. The instruction booklet has very easy to follow photo instructions. The use of the zipper to make the one mattress function for two purposes (bassinet mattress and play yard mattress) made for easy storage. The storage bag was perfect for the bassinet, when not in use and for the second half of the mattress when the bassinet was being used. The handles on the carrying bag worked well for traveling. Cons Mattress: I do wish that the mattress was a darker gray color, similar to the bassinet fabric. It is a light color which shows stains easily. It does wipe clean, but after several uses the mattress already shows signs of spills, spit up, etc Cost: It is much pricier than our older model, by at least a hundred dollars. I would pay more than our last pack n play for the lighter and easier to maneuver Swift Play Yard. Handle: The two carrying handles are nice for short distance carrying. It would be nice to have a shoulder strap for longer distance carrying or for free hands to carry the baby at the same time. It would also be nice to have a handle ideal for hanging the Play Yard system up on the wall in storage instead of just on the floor. Overall, this play yard helps to make me one happy mama. Following four small children all day can be cumbersome, but this play yard adds one extra convenience to my daily routine. Baby is happy playing in the play yard with her toys and able to see her siblings. I can fairly easily fold up the mattress with the toys in it and move the mattress in one arm and the play yard in the other. This is extremely helpful in quickly transitioning from playing inside to taking the baby outside with the big kids. I love how easy this play yard compacts to fit through doorways!

Compact to store and easy to set up
I highly recommend this play yard. Assembly takes no time at all and does not require watching any YouTube tutorials prior to use. The size is perfect and this would work as a bedside sleeper, a travel option, or as something to keep tucked away for when little ones visit. The simplicity and sturdiness of the play pen negate the internal debate when you want to relocate.

We love it!
The play yard was very easy to set up and easy to use. My little one keeps falling asleep in here and quicker than anything else! It's very sturdy and built strong enough to take with you. We are definitely interested in getting more products from this brand
