Super lite-weight & portable!
I have a two year old that can climb out of the playpen, so that's no longer an option for travel. I found this online and love it! I'm ordering another for my 1 year old because it is so much better than a play pen. It's so light that my 2 year old can carry it! Set up in 5 seconds! And what kid doesn't like to sleep in a tent - so fun! The inflatable matress is softer than the hard bottom of the play pen, it is 20 times smaller than a play pen and 50 times lighter than a playpen. I'm a pretty picky mother, but this product definately gets 5 stars.

I love this tent. If only my son did, too.
This little tent is genius, I wish I'd used this instead of a pack n' play when my son - now 2 - was younger and couldn't complain about where he was sleeping.
It's light and compact for travel, it sets up in a flash (literally, you just toss the thing on the floor and it sets itself up like something out of Looney Toons), it's safe, it's attractive, and keeps out light and bugs. Brilliant.
If I HAD to complain about something, I'd say that for light/fussy sleepers like my kid, even the sound of zipping the tent would startle him awake. PLus, as someone else has mentioned: he CAN get out of the tent on his own, so you have to be extra careful about child-proofing whatever area your child is sleeping in, just in case he gets out in the wee hours of the morning and goes exploring.
UNfortunately for me, my kid refuses to sleep in it. Ah well. Still, we'll keep it set up in his room in the hopes that as he ages, he'll become less finicky.

Great product but not for my son
The product is great, very easy to handle and is perfect when you go hiking or to the beach or to the park. The only problem is that my son does not like to be inside or under anything. So I can never make him sleep or even sit inside the travel bed for more than 5 min. I think he is just a different boy with a different personality. One more thing, my son is one year old and is a very tall boy for his age(33 inches) and I was glad to see the size of portable bed because he does not fit in most of the portable beds we got earlier. I may not be using this product for my son but keeping it and hoping my next baby will like it because it certainly is very light weight, portable bed, looks very comfy and cozy that most of the kids would like.

This bed is a lifesaver for vacations with toddlers!
We took our 2 year old on a Carribean vacation. She had never slept in a Peapod before our trip, and it worked like a dream. Since you can zip the tent closed, we didn't worry about her wandering around at bed time or nap time. I would highly recommend this. We even use it at home now for nap time because she likes it so much.

Buyer beware! Loud zipper, difficult to put down sleepy baby
This is the stupidest product for three reasons:
1. You have to get down on your knees and lean down to put your baby in, by which time that baby's probably woken up (my three month old always did)
2. The zipper is really loud, if you want to avoid your baby rolling out and want to zip it up. The zipper sound always freaked out my baby
3. You're not supposed to zip it up when the baby is asleep in it unsupervised anyway. Unzipped, my baby rolled out after ten minutes.
This is good as a tent, if you're at a picnic and you plan to be watching the baby. However, it is NOT good as a pack and play substitute.

Kidco PeaPod
Wonderful product and as a parent I am at ease for I know my baby is safe sleeping in the PeaPod. My baby loves it. We use it when we go traveling and put it up in the hotel room. The mattress is also comfortable.

Great for Parents and Kids!
We love our PeaPod. We bought it for going on our first anniversary trip after our daughter was born (she's 4 months old.) Shortly after receiving it, we got an immediate chance to use it as we had a last minute trip for a family emergency. The tent is very light, portable, and easy to assemble and dissasemble. The price is worth it, too. You basically create a familiar, enclosed environment for your child wherever you go. We've used it for two trips, several overnight stays, and weekly so she can nap at church on Sundays. Don't hesitate-great product!

Easy traveling
We brought the PeaPod Plus for our 9 month old just before a trip to Europe. She loves to play in it... Sleep in it, perhaps less so. The only real problem we had was that she tended to roll off the inflatable mattress and get wedged in the corner, or collapse a wall. We solved this by placing the PeaPod between two mattresses, which kept things more contained.
Nonetheless, I like the PeaPod, because it travels well and is safer than most other options. I suspect that it will be easier to use as our daughter grows. We're looking forward to seeing how it handles camping next summer.

Love it
My daughter just got to use it this past week while we were on vacation. The first night I zipped up both the netting & the darkening shade & she got too hot so she was crying in the middle of the night & I had to open up the darkening & just leave the netting zipped. She did great in it & Mommy didn't have to worry about where she was because the place we stayed was not baby proofed at all. I love that I could put her in it & zip her up & she was comfortable because of the blow up mattress that comes with it.

go with a pack and play
I'm returning this product. The fabric walls are completely unbreathable. My baby moves around in her sleep, and likes sleeping against her crib wall, so I felt the peapod would be unsafe.
As an apartment dweller and public transportation user, I love small and light things. Unfortunately, even though the peapod is light, compact, and easy to set up and fold away, a Graco pack and play is a better option.
To top it all off, the instructions say not to leave child unattended. Not the best recommendation for something that is supposed to be a bed.
