Bassinets are sleeping quarters used to keep your baby nearby during the early months after bringing him home from the hospital. Many bassinets are not appropriate for babies over 20 pounds. Benefits of bassinets include portability and usually a lower cost than a crib. Take a look at some of the top selling and rated bassinets to help make your buying decision.
Contours Classique 3 In 1
Contours Classique 3 In 1 is well liked because of its ability to function as a bassinet, changing table and Moses basket. It has a sturdy wood frame, as well as an included diaper stacker and duo of wicker baskets. It is available at a low cost and can be purchased through retailers such as Babies R Us.
Badger Basket Elite Oval Bassinet
Badger Basket Elite Oval Bassinet is one of the top bassinets because of its round shape and stylish look. It is roomier than most traditional bassinets and includes a full bedding set: dust ruffle, bumper, fitted sheet and draping canopy. The wheels attached to the bottom make it easy to move from room to room. It is available online through websites such as overstock.com.
Eddie Bauer Newport Collection Bassinet
Eddie Bauer Newport Collection Bassinet is another top-selling and top-rated bassinet choice. It is constructed from a darkly colored wood and can hold babies that weigh up to 15 pounds. A storage shelf is included to hold all of your baby's essentials. The wheels are lockable, to provide extra security. You can find this cradle at Toys R Us.
Arm's Reach
The Arm's Reach bassinets are popular because of their ability to act as a co-sleeper. The one side of the bassinet can be left open to push against an adult bed. This keeps the baby close, but without the danger of sleeping in the parent's bed. It weighs less than 25 pounds, so it is easy to carry place to place. Babies R Us carries the Arm's Reach line of bassinets.
