Halo

Flex Bassinest

I absolutely love the bassinet, it's helped me sleep next/near my baby safely and helped ease my consciousness with checking up on him. He sleeps so soundly and I'm honestly gonna miss sleeping next to him like this when he gets bigger, thanks to this bassinet I'll truly cherish this stage in his life.

This truly was a great bassinet to travel with. The ease of use was great; it was very compact and took up hardly any space. All the pieces fit nicely into a slim carry bag, and it is nice and flat which easily slid into the car without taking up a ton of space for our trip. When putting the bassinet together, there were very few pieces and it was very straightforward. I will say it was a little tricky slipping the bars into place on the actual bassinet part because it’s a tight fit with he fabric on it, but it was still easy to put together none the less. I found the bassinet to be very lightweight, yet still sturdy for my baby. It conveniently was adjustable for the height, allowing me to perfectly get my baby to the height of the bed next to me. The mesh sides were great and gave me piece of mind. All in all I was very pleased with this bassinet and would absolutely recommend anyone who is traveling to get it, as well as just to simply have as a regular bassinet for next to your bed for your new baby!

I received the HALO BassiNest Flex through the Stellar Product Testing Panel! I am very pleased with this bedside bassinet. I have a tall bed, and this bassinet perfectly allowed me to care for my little one without having to get out of bed. I wish I had this after my c-section, it would have made my life so much easier. The lowering wall was the icing on the cake, it really made it easy to reach baby in the middle of the night. This bassinet really improved my quality of sleep during the tough newborn nights. I loved being able to have baby close, it really reduced my anxiety knowing I had easy and immediate access to baby.

We received this product as part of the stellar product testing panel. We had a bassinet from our last baby and this one has been so much more convenient. It was so easy to set up and our favorite part has been how much room we have with it set up. It doesn’t take up a huge portion of our room. We can pull it right up to us, and pull down on the side to get to our son easy.

I have a six-week old child, so we haven't started travelling far from home yet, but when we do, the HALO BassiNest Flex will be something we pack up! Its easy to assemble, packs up small into a provided carrying bag and is a safe place for baby to sleep.

Up until now, we had been using the Halo BassiNest Swivel sleeper, which worked really well for me when I was newly postpartum, as I could pull the baby closer and also push the bassinet further away to allow me easier entry/exit from bed. Now that I can move again - I am loving the feet with the Flex that slide under the bed and don't trip me up!

The features are very similar to the Swivel, the easy lowering side and the fact that it can be positioned over your bed easily. My husband initially assembled the bassinet without me, but I had to disassemble - and after quickly looking at the directions, I was able to do it - with the help of another person. Though, now that I've done it once, I could likely do it by myself the second time.

I was given this bassinet to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The Halo bassinest is a great product—safe for baby to sleep in, convenient to place next to my bedside, and the lowering wall is an excellent feature for grabbing baby out multiple times a night to feed. This bassinet is lighter than most, but still solid and heavy enough to be safe. Was a little time consuming for my hubby to put together, but travel bag that’s included is a nice add on. Have not traveled with it yet.

I received this product as part of Stellar Product Testing Panel. The Halo Bassinest Flex is a fantastic option to put baby next to our bed. We don't have to worry about it tipping over because it's really sturdy. The sides are made of a breathable material, and we can see them too. There's even a pocket to keep important things handy. Putting it together is simple, I Will save this for our next child, highly recommend.Personally I have no complain.

I received this bassinet as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It was fairly easy to put together although you would likely need a second person as getting some of the parts into their holes and adjusting everything so it all snaps is pretty frustrating alone. It took me 17 minutes with a little help from my husband. I did notice that one side for the adjustable height does not snap well so it pulls out when you pull up on it. It does not lower when you do not want it to so that is good. I can deal with the other.
The material is nice and soft and the sleeping base is firm for safe sleep. I did place a level on it and it is slightly sloped. I could not fix that when I was adjusting everything so I’m not sure if it is made that way or if mine has a defect. However, the weight of baby does pull it down a bit to make it more flat so maybe that is the intention.
It is easy to move around and fits perfectly next to the bed. The adjustable legs make it easy to adjust to the taller beds as well. The front side does lower for those middle of the night check-ins which is so nice. Then it locks back into place for added safety. I love having baby so close but still safe next to me.
I intend to only use it at home but for the sake of this review, I packed it into its travel bed. The worst things is you have to take it apart almost completely which is a bit of a pain and then slide it in to the provided carry bag and it is a bit snug. The whole thing weighs 17.2 pounds and the bag itself is pretty bulky but it’s easy enough to carry out to the car and it lays mostly flat for easy packing.
I’m excited to see how well baby sleeps in it in the coming weeks!

I was given this bassinet to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Box and inside parts arrived in perfect condition. I attempted to assemble myself, but needed an extra pair of hands to finish as it’s a little difficult to put the bassinet portion together without another person holding the top piece up to clamp the middle section together. I wanted to be able to use this bassinet in our bedroom however as you can tell by the photos, the stand itself takes up a lot of real estate and will not fit in our smaller bedroom. The bottom of the stand measures 42” from end to end. Features that I like: adjustable height and drop down wall for easy access to baby. For now we will utilize in the main living areas, it’s light enough to move from room to room, but again because of how big it is I imagine we will just continue to keep it in one location. As for portability for traveling it did come with a bag to carry it in which is a plus but the setup would be difficult as for someone to put together alone if they are traveling solo.

If you’re looking for a bassinet that can slide in closely to your bed or couch without being a tripping hazard, this is the one for you! The legs of the bassinet fit nicely under your bed, and there is a lowering wall that makes it very easy to pick up and put down your child for feedings. You can also lock the lowering wall if you prefer. It comes with a carrying bag to take on the go, and easily disassembles and assembles as needed without any tools. I’d recommend this bassinet to anyone looking for an easily movable and compact solution to keep your baby close by. It’s been a great addition for our home! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bassinet to try.
