4moms® mamaRoo sleep™ bassinet

This bassinet was a gift for my daughter and future grand baby. I was initially shocked by the price until I watched the video on all the things it could do. I had no idea! The bassinet is set up and ready for baby. My daughter loves it! I think it is amazing! My only complaint is that the mattress is thin and not what I expected for price. I did buy the cover and hope that will help. I still think this bassinet will help my grand baby sleep better and go back to sleep much easier which will ultimately allow the new parents to sleep better too.

I wanted to love this bassinet because it’s provided me an effective way to get my colicky baby to sleep at night. But I have a few complaints. #1 the noise: after one month of minimal use (20-30 minutes nightly) it became incredibly loud. It makes popping noises and sounds like an over worked motor. My daughter is only 13 pounds and 2 months old. I’m also certain it’s going to stop working before my daughter reaches the max weight/age limit for it. #2 even when it’s shut off but plugged in it makes an obnoxious humming noise. #3 the item description leads you to believe that this bassinet follows the APA safe sleep guidelines, but they fail to tell you that it only meets those guidelines when it’s NOT in motion. This is not made clear in the description at all. I imagine this device is being widely misused because of this. I learned it wasn’t unsafe for sleep in motion the first week I had used it and quickly had to change how we used it. We now use motion for supervised sleep as our baby falls asleep at bedtime, then it is shut off for the rest of the night. Only positive thing I’ve experienced with this bassinet is the app and even then about 40% of the time I have to reconnect the bassinet manually to use the app and it’s annoying. Overall, I wish I would have better invested my money elsewhere. I won’t be able to resell the device in the condition it is in. Truthfully even if I could resell it, I wouldn’t because I am a firm believer in a safe sleep environment.

We wanted to like this bassinet so much. Unfortunately, it’s a highly overpriced piece of unnecessary equipment. Our daughter is 3 months old, and we’ve used this successfully maybe 10 times. We could have invested that money anywhere else, and it would’ve been better spent.

This was so expensive. The moment we put in together and placed our newborn it squeaks !! For the price I would pass and not purchase. Really dissatisfied and I don’t even turn it on . He just sleeps in it .

I like the bassinet, including it’s features such as white noise and motions however it could be improved by making mattress a bit more comfortable it’s very thin and making a zipper part that you can unzip and be able to put your hand/and to baby without getting up.

This is an imperfect product that has many glitches to still work out. Most importantly being that the movement feature will often get "confused" after its 4 hour time block and won't turn back on. Even after unplugging the outlet, the movement feature still won't work. A light blinks and it can't be turned on. Our bassinet has also made lots of noises that are difficult to fix because the control panel is not accessible without tools. Sometimes its a squeaky noise and other times it's a thump of some sort. Lastly, I wouldn't recommend this to any of my friends as a bassinet because of its practical use. Anytime my newborn cries at night, I have to get up and walk the 2 feet over to the bassinet because it cannot easily be put next to our bed. It's too tall and bulky. For all my future friends that get pregnant, I will recommend a bassinet that comes up to the bed and simply has a vibrate feature.

Wanted to love this product however it continually shuts off and the sudden stop in movement would wake my baby.even with following the troubleshoot over and over it still shuts off. Save yourself the headache and just get a traditional bassinet. Don’t waste your money.

I bought this one 3 months ago and my little one he’s 6 weeks old now and he hates it the mattress so thin he’s struggling sleeping on it , the motion sound so loud not worth the money 👎🏻
