The bassinet is cute, but definitely not practical. I was shocked at how small it was. In the picture it looks much taller and it's not, grant it, I didn't look at the measurements clearly before I purchased it. The actual bed is sturdy, but the canopy is much less than what I thought it was. This is our first baby and I think we will just take some pictures of the baby in it and then sell it. If the canopy was taller & more sturdy, then I would rate it 4 stars and keep it up longer, but it just looks like a miniture canopy bed.
