Overall I am happy with my product, I did notice some product deficiencies in the set up (cracked and broken pieces) (some pieces missing the attachment parts) but I was able to find some remedies on my own for the issue so it is still functional. So overall good value!

The Graco Sense2Snooze arrived an afternoon when my 2 month old had his first cold. Immediately, I assembled it. The box was organized by putting parts of the same steps together and the instructions and construction were clear and intuitive! Each part has grooves to line up to ensure it is securely constructed. It all went together in about 20 minutes and it was ready to use. My baby rarely naps if he isn't being held. I was hopeful that this bassinet would soothe him when I put him down. After placing a sleeping baby in it, he woke as he usually does. When he started to fuss, the green light came on and the bassinet started to sway and play music. He definitely wasn't expecting it and mixed with his pacifier, made him a much happier baby, but not always putting him to sleep. There are times that he will stay asleep for about 20 minutes when put down and soothed when he fusses- any one who cares for a baby during the day knows that 20 minutes baby free is great! At night, he slept no issues and slept thru the night for over 7 hours! The parent mode allowed me to select what I thought was his favorite setting, but the auto programmed setting was actually more effective for my baby! The gray color scheme matches well with his space. The height if the bassinet is great to easily reach baby. The mesh on the sides is easy to see through. The legs being freestanding with no connecting cross beams also make it easy to clean around. And the mat confess right off to clean, though it is also easy to spot clean when it is in the bassinet. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bassinet to test and review! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I was given the Graco Sense2Snooze bassinet with cry detection technology to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My baby has been sleeping in it for a week and a half and it has helped us in so many ways - it has improved my sleep (through peace of mind), and settled my baby during fussy moments, and helped her fall asleep at other times. The cry detection technology really surprised me. I didn’t believe it would work, or help, but it can actually tell the difference between my baby’s coos (and my toddler’s noises) and her crying. And not only did the bassinet’s sounds vary with the cry detection, but so did the speed of the motions and the vibrations, which I think helped soothe her. To be clear, the cry detection isn’t magic - it can’t soothe my baby from screaming all the way into a solid sleep, but it has definitely calmed her down many times, and she frequently goes from fussing into a light sleep thanks to the Sense2Snooze technology. The mesh sides of this bassinet are much nicer than the mesh in many other baby products, which usually have thicker or doubled mesh. My baby is able to see me through the sides of the Graco Sense2Snooze which I really appreciate because I move the bassinet into my kitchen while I’m doing dishes or cooking. The combination of rocking, the varying sounds and being able to see me, helps to keep my baby calm through a whole meal prep and cooking, and through doing dishes - which is so much easier than constantly having to stop what I’m doing, soothe her, put her back down, and then repeating the process over again. The bassinet’s mattress cover is removable, but honestly, I only spot clean it. It’s a good idea that it can be removed and washed for diaper blowouts or serious spit up, but so far spot cleaning has been easier for me than bending the mattress to remove/replace the cover. The cry detection setting is my favorite feature of this bassinet. It doesn’t always stop my baby’s crying, but it always calms her enough for me to finish a task, or wake myself up enough in the middle of the night to prep for a diaper/outfit change before she is screaming. The bassinet features a canopy which can be fully or partially open, reversed to face either direction, or removed altogether. During the day, while my baby is napping, the open canopy is enough to keep daylight off of her face so she doesn’t wake up. The canopy also helps keep the bassinet shaded and slightly insulated from sounds while I’m prepping dinner, etc. The bassinet has a “parent mode” setting to save favorite sounds/motions, but I’ve never used this feature. The bassinet’s ability to change speed of rocking, and sound, was better at soothing my baby than one set combination. And if the cry detection isn’t doing the trick, the control panel is easy to access with user friendly buttons to switch things up. There are only a few negatives to this bassinet. The power cord is in an awkward place on one of the forward facing legs, on the same side that the control panel is on. It’s not an issue for my baby, but my toddler is very interesting in cords and there’s not a good way to hide this one. The bassinet has a small apron with three pockets, but it’s too low to comfortably access. Even if you’re short, you will still need to bend over to reach into the pockets, which are also pretty shallow. You can only fit one or two diapers in the middle pocket, and the side pockets really can only fit a small tube of diaper cream. Like I mentioned, I move the bassinet into my kitchen a lot, which should be easier than it is because there are wheels on two of the legs, but the wheels don’t have any traction and won’t roll for me. Even with these three things, I like this bassinet a lot. I sleep very well knowing that this bassinet is safe (hard flat surface with completely breathable sides), and that the bassinet will help me by soothing my baby if she wakes up crying or needs calming so I can get a few things accomplished.

I received the Sense2Snooze Bassinet with Cry Detection Technology through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and it is great! The cry detection does work well! I couldn’t really feel a difference in the two vibration settings however. I do think the motion plus the vibration helped my baby to sleep well! The bassinet is a good size, but the weight limit is a little low. Wouldn’t be able to use it that long if you had a big baby. The mesh sides are breathable which is a huge plus! The bassinet was easy to put together and only took me about 15 minutes. The mattress cover is super easy to take off the clean! I never used the parent mode as I would just push the button to what setting I wanted. The pockets underneath are pretty small and I didn’t feel I could really put much in it. Overall I do like the bassinet. I can sleep well knowing my baby is safe in there and motion is nice and gentle! Highly recommend!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

The Sense2Snooze™ Bassinet with Cry Detection™ Technology is a very innovative bassinet. My favorite thing about it was the rocking motion with different speed settings and the vibration, this helped put my daughter to sleep. The bassinet was easy to set up and easy to clean including the mattress cover. I love how the bassinet looks and the neutral colors match any room design. The mesh sides help me feel confident that my baby is safe throughout the night. The cry detection technology does not work very well for my daughter, I think it is because she has more of a whine then a true cry. I also am not a fan of the sounds especially the white noise. Overall, I feel confident in letting my daughter sleep in this bassinet and the motions help her fall asleep and stay asleep. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bassinet. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

The Graco Sense2Snooze is an ingenious idea to help parents gain a tad more sleep during those first few months. I tried this product with my 3 month old daughter, who on average, woke every 3 hours at night. I received this item delivered and the box itself was large but not wide. I was able to easily move it into my home to begin setup. The instructions were straight forward and I was able to put together the bassinet in about 20 minutes with minimal confusion. I was surprised to find that the finished product had a fairly small footprint for a bassinet, it was light weight and easy to move around. It also has two wheels on one side which facilitates moving it within the room and a canopy that can be placed on either side of the bassinet based on your needs. The mesh sides are also an added bonus which helps you to see baby from your own bed as well as feel good that if baby pressed up against the side, he/she would still be able to breathe. I began using this product with my daughter for naps and then moved to bedtime. The control panel has numerous suggestions for soothing: vibration, swaying, white noise, music and nature sounds. All of these are adjustable by speed and volume as well which is nice. There is also a 'parent mode' or 'Graco mode.' The 'Graco mode' is a preset to which cycles through different phases if baby cries more than 30 seconds. Talk about ways to personalize this item! It definitely receives an A+ in that department! I started by just using the white noise and the swaying motion. This was excellent in helping me place my daughter in the bassinet awake and letting her soothe to sleep. I'm hoping that this helps long term in his self soothing efforts. The vibration was a bonus that I found helped to soothe her during fussy periods as well. However, then I tried 'Graco mode.' When my daughter woke up and began to cry, it began to cycle and she began to cry harder. I don't think she liked the features at that point. This happened each time and I had to remove her to soothe her. I then tried the 'parent mode' and after picking my favorite settings, found the same to be true. If my baby woke up, she was upset no matter the setting and would not soothe back to sleep. I love that this bassinet has so many options and features to customize to your baby. I found it was amazing for starting my babies sleep process, but didn't find the extra features helpful if she awoke later. I also wish that it had the option for leg lifters to raise one end of the bassinet for those babies that have reflux or a cold. This could be tricky because of the wheels, but perhaps lifters that slipped over the wheels. I would also like to see an additional mattress cover be included. It is easy enough to clean, however, my baby spits up a lot and I found myself washing it daily. Overall, I would definitely recommend it to others and can see this becoming a staple in the parenting community. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bassinet.

The bassinet works great and doesn’t take up much space which is always a plus. I loved that I could wheel it from our bedroom in the morning out into the living room for the day so he could take naps in a flat surface without having to be so far from me. The cry detection seemed to only work if he was actually crying loud (he is more of a whiner not a crier). The sound part also doesn’t go up very high but will get louder/quieter upon sensing crying or once the baby settles. It rocks back and forth and you can even set it to do so without the baby crying. Overall I would say it’s a good product but maybe not for every baby. I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I was recently given the Sense2Snooze™ Bassinet with Cry Detection™ Technology from Stellar Review Panel. Upon receiving the bassinet, I immediately put it together. It took maybe 10 minutes. It was very easy to assemble. I liked to neutral colors and mesh sides so I could easily view and monitor my baby. The first night, we tried the cry detection technology using the preset mode which goes through all of the soothing sounds and motions. My baby didn’t seem to particularly like it. It didn’t really settle him as he preferred to be held. We tried for naps as well with the same result. So after using the soothing technology for a few days, we decided it was best to just use the built in sounds instead of a separate sound machine in his room. I liked all the sounds choices it comes with. I also washed the mattress cover and it came out perfectly clean. It was also very easy to take off and put back on as well as replace it in the bassinet. I do wish the sounds stayed on longer and didn’t automatically turn off after 8 hours. When I’m tending to my baby in the middle of the night, I don’t think to turn it off and turn it back on. It would have been more helpful if it just stayed on longer. Overall, I think it’s a great idea but it wasn’t for us. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I received this bassinet through the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I’m really glad to have it as part of our baby gear! My youngest son is now 7 weeks old and we’ve been using this bassinet for approximately 2 weeks. This bassinet seems very safe; the sides are very well ventilated, and the mattress has a tight fit and is secured by several sets of Velcro. The two wheels also make it super easy and convenient to move it from room to room. We have a swing, a bouncy seat, and a newborn lounger and this bassinet is the ONLY place other than my arms that I’ve been able to keep my son happy in for longer than 5 minutes. I really think the motion and the sounds relax him. He will lay in it awake for up to 15 minutes (which is a HUGE improvement), and he has napped in it for up to 2 hours at a time. The only reason I didn’t give this bassinet 5 stars and we didn’t make it our primary bassinet is because the motion confuses his infant breathing/heart rate monitor. The monitor will not work while the bassinet is moving. Because of this, I’m only comfortable using this bassinet under supervision and not while I am asleep. Overall, I’m really glad to have this bassinet for our son, and I’d recommend it over other baby gear purchases!

My baby sleeps comfortably here. I recommend this newborn babies, since it has cry detection feature included.
