Product Specifications

The Graco Baby Einstein Discover and Play Playard features multiple configurations for versatile use throughout the day and continued use as baby grows. The 40-inch long by 28-1/2-inch wide playpen is designed for kids up to 35 inches tall and up to 30 pounds who are not yet big enough to climb out. The four sides of the playard are made of mesh for improved ventilation, and two wheels on the bottom make it easy to move the playard from room to room.

From Naptime to Playtime
The playard also comes with a full-size removable bassinet that is intended for use by children under 15 pounds and is especially handy for naptime. The included toy gym offers colorful hanging toys and can be attached to the top of the playard frame or used separately on the floor with a playmat. A Baby Einstein Activity Panel features dancing lights and classical melodies to entertain and engage, and can be easily operated by a child or an adult. The Activity Panel can be attached to the toy gym or the side of the playard for versatility. The included toy caterpillar can attach to the toy gym or be played with separately.

[+] 8.0 N/A
My son loves the colors and can't get enough of the musical light thing that came with it. He is even playing with it when he is not in the playard. However, the toys on top are quite pointless. He can't reach them and they make it difficult to get him in and out. Otherwise, it is great. Easy to set up and clean.

[+] 8.0 good but nothing special
Pretty much the same as the other Graco playpens, really. The upside is that theoretically, you get a play-gym within this system by attaching the arch on the bassinet pad and using it on your floor. The downside is that there's no changing station included with this one - and having an elevated changing pad is a bigger deal than I had anticipated, as it gets hard on your back to lean down into the bassinett for frequent diaper changing during the daytime.

[+] 10.0 Definately worth the money!!!
Great Product. Very satisfied and pleased. We bought this after doing some research and found this to be the best one for our situation. We have an infant that was born prematurely and spend the first 5 months of his life in the hospital. With the Baby Einstein product, we were able to test our baby's eyesight and physical capabilities with all the bright colors and suspended play area on top. I recommend this product to anyone. Very Happy!!

[+] 10.0 Baby Einstein
Graco Baby Einstein Discover and Play
This play pen/crib is perfect for visitors or traveling. It was extremely easy to assemble and even easier to take apart. My baby slept comfortably in the bassinet portion and I would recommend this to others.

[+] 10.0 Delightful item
After shopping around at the various baby stores and checking out all the competition I decided on this play yard for my grandchild as it was colorful, sturdy and easy to put together. The toys on the mobile are bright and delightful. Other portacribs only have funky toys on the mobiles and have too much in the way of diaper changing accessories that are nice but not necessary. The music it plays is great. The price is right too. I recommend this one.

[+] 10.0 Great purchase - great product
Easy to put together! Our baby sleeps so well in the "bassinet" portion! He's not old enough to pay attention to the music and animal toys yet, but I'm sure he'll love those as well!
Reviewer [A3JVLC7LE6EMYM] | Date [March 31, 2008]
[+] 10.0 Love It!
I needed a Bassinet and Playpen for our second daughter. This was perfect. It can be both, is a nice good size but not huge. Very easy to assemble and transform. Bright colors. Love the caterpillar. East to maneuver and push when needed to move.

No complaints here.

[+] 10.0 An amazing playpen/travel crib
This graaco baby einstein discover and play is amazing. I purchased it to use when our niece and nephew come to visit and they love it. The top piece can be put on the floor to play with also. Their mom says that they love ours more then hers. :) I would definetely reccommend. It is easy to assemble and I haven't had any problems with it!

[+] 10.0 LOVE this!
I put this together when I was still pregnant by myself. It was very easy to do. It is easy to put down and put back up. I love the detachable toys. It keeps our little guy busy.

The reviews about babies not being able to stay in it long, DUH you are not supposed to keep babies in these for long periods of time...they like to be held! LOL

[+] 10.0 She Loves it!
This was a babyshower gift to one of my best friends. She loves it and cried when she received it. I personally do not know about how well it functions but if she's happy with it...then so am I.
Reviewer [AFIE5M7BGF20F] | Date [September 4, 2007]
[+] 8.0 Great playpen
This playpen works really well. We wanted something simple - some of the pack and plays are so complicated it makes them less functional. This definitely is simple and easy to assemble. I don't see the point of the toys on it, even with the basinette in, the baby can only look but not really play with them. We have her own toys we put in with her. We didn't really want this for the toys anyway though.
Reviewer [A2BG05YEBCPNUI] | Date [August 20, 2007]
[+] 8.0 Lovely Item bit difficult to move around quickly.
We bought this item for our 6 month old baby girl as she was starting to get quite active. It is sturdy, fun, and very secure. The additional music kept her amused and it is large enough that she had plenty of room to roam. She actually started pulling herself up in it a few months later. She loves th colours and sounds and I love the fact it is secure and safe.

We plan on using this with our next baby due in a month.

It is however a little difficult for moving around. in large spaces it wheels quite well but if you need to shrink it down you pretty much have to take it completely down as when you press one button in the frame seems to just go every which way. I had to move it from the living room to the bedroom a few times and I ended up just folding it completely down and taking a few trips with the base and toys etc. Also getting all the equipment in the carry case is a little tight, with the extra toys its quite cramped, also there are a few pipes used for the bed area that do not really have a home anywhere, so when packing it up they are pretty loose and you have to watch they don't fall out (a bag like a tent pole bag would solve this problem).

All in all when it is set up it is great, and for the price a lot better then others I saw, as for pack n' play it is more a case of play, packup, poke and prod, squeeze a little, stuff this in here and that in there and then go.

[+] 8.0 Excellent choice!
Our daughter LOVES this playpin and so do we! It's extremely easy to set-up and take down. I love the colors, the stuffed animals are cute and entertain her. The bassinette is large and sturdy and gives her lots of room to move around. The mattress is soft and the pattern is bright and colorful. It's also not heavy and easy to tote. My only two concerns are with the activity panel, each song is particularly short and even on it's high setting the music isn't really loud enough. Our daughter is 15 weeks right now so I'm sure once she's older she'll be able to interact with the panel better and won't need me to press the buttons.

Over all we are 100% satisfied with the purchase, it is safe, afforable, practical and cute! I would highly recommend this playpen to everyone.

[+] 8.0 LOVE IT, but......
I LOVE this playyard for the happy, bright colors and the arch. I also love the beautiful classical tunes it plays, HOWEVER, I wish it could have a setting to play for alittle longer to keep the baby entertained while I'm able to get something done. It only plays each melody of your choice once so you have to sit around & keep pressing the buttons (four buttons for one short melody per button) to keep hearing the music. But overall, I do love this playyard and would recommend it.

[+] 6.0 Baby Einstein for Baby Ben
A comprimise between a playpen and a crib. Not big enough or high enough to be a safe playpen and too low to be a good crib have to really bend down. But again it is a good choice for a youg baby probably for 6-9 mos.for travelling and grandparents.

[+] 8.0 Great playard - LOVE bassinet
This is a great pack'n'play. It's easy to set-up and take any place. The bassinet is great - very sturdy and larger than another one that I have. The colors are bright and the music piece keeps our baby's attention. My only problem is the piece for the top. Whenever I try to use it, the arms bow in and it doesn't look very sturdy. I also have trouble using this piece and the mat on the ground. It just doesn't seem very sturdy and I have tried everything.

Other than that, I am glad that I bought this!!

[+] 2.0 Daughter screamed bloody murder
We had to buy a new pack n play because our other one was coming apart. I chose this one because of its features and colors. My daughter hated this and screamed every time we put her in it. We tried for days to get her to use this, but she never would. So, we returned this and got a different that she absolutely loves.
Reviewer [A2P30WOGAI5W28] | Date [May 30, 2006]
[+] 8.0 Great for the money
My little girl loves this play space! The colors and over head bar keep her amused for long enough that I can get dinner on or help with home work. The only thing that might make it better would be if the music in the push button play mat lasted longer than 2 minutes.
Reviewer [A3LMETRTG35VSJ] | Date [May 22, 2006]
[+] 10.0 great playard great value
I think for your money you get a great value for this playard. It comes with an interactive musical toy that no other playard comes with anything like this. It also comes with overhead bars that you can hang toys from and the baby can play with. The mattress seems very comfortable and I bought this playpen because the bassinet part looked more reinforced than the others. It has bars that snap in place and also has plastic parts that hang over the tops. The mat can also be used as a playmat on the floor with the overhead bars.

[+] 8.0 Looks great
I just recently got this pack n play as a shower gift from the godmother of our little one. This pack n play has a great vibe to it... the colors are absolutely fantastic. It's easy to set up and has the most adorable toys. It is also easy to convert it into the gym. The only complaint I have is that I'm 32 weeks and I had a heck of a time putting everything into the bag by myself.

[+] 10.0 Wonderful, Colorful Product
I received this pack n' play for a shower present this weekend and it is absolutely adorable set up. It is very colorful and the the toys are cute. It was very easy to set-up. I am not good at putting things together and it took me about 5 minutes total.
The matress comes out so you can put it on the floor with the toys overhead. It is very multi-functional.
