    Not for active sleepers
    I bought this tent for my 8-month old when flying to stay at a very small apartment. It was so convenient to throw it in my suitcase instead of hauling a pack n play through the airport. However, I ended up buying a PnP at 8 a.m. the next morning after a night of very little sleep! My baby moves around a lot while he sleeps and the tent just doesn't have room for that, so he woke up constantly. And there is a gap between the mattress and the tent sides, so one time, he rolled right off the mattress! Also, the zipper is loud when trying to close it up with a sleeping baby inside. If I had to do it again, I would save the $, and buy a PnP at my destination and return it when I left...I'm currently waiting to hear what Baby Age's return policy is!

    Sent back
    This was a cool looking product, but sent it back because it was much too small for our 2 year old. It looks like it would have been really fun - but not sure if the tent part would have been too intriguing to be relaxing enough to fall asleep...

    Great product!
    We ordered this little tent to take our 8 week old to the beach. It was such a great purchase. It is very easy to open, just be sure to open it away from others as it pops open quickly. It is also very easy to fold, the first time just takes a few minutes to figure out, but there is really no wrong way to fold it back up. The mattress is great and slips in between the bottom of the tent and the "floor" of the tent. The sleeping bag is useless and of bad material, but I doubt that is why anyone is purchasing this tent. I know one reviewer thought that the material was dangerous for laying a baby on, but I doubt anyone is just laying their baby on the bottom of the tent without putting something down first. We just laid our baby on a towel in the tent and that worked very well. He would either go right to sleep, or just hang out. The sides are vented so it doesn't get too hot in there. It is a must have for the beach!

    Great Travel Bed
    We were going on a 2 1/2 week road trip with our four children ages, 7, 5, 20 months and 7 weeks. We did not have room for 2 porta cribs so I was looking for something very compact for the 7 wk old. We ordered this at the last minutes and it came the day before we left. I was VERY happy with this product. My husband and I said many times during the trip how thankful we were to have it! I was a bit concerned with folding it back up after reading a few reviews. I just followed the directions and the first time was able to fold it with out a problem! We even used this on the beach one day and it worked great!

    The Little Man loves it, it must be good
    This thing is great! My son loves it and it is really easy to use (just make sure you have room to open it and, keep your face away from it! duh.) It was a life saver for a quick weekend to the beach instead of lugging around a pack-n-play which takes up a lot of room in a hotel and are a pain to clean after being in the sand. The Pea Pod does an outstanding job of keeping bugs away from our 6 Mo. old when we are outside. I wish they made these in multiple sizes, I would buy one made for adults.

    Peapod travel bed
    Absolutely fantastic product. It is so easy to use, quick to put up and fold back up again. My son (4 months) loves it too. I just can't believe how small it folds - fantastic for travelling! I would recommend it to anyone.

    The best
    This thing is super easy to use and seems very durable! We bought it to use on vacation in a few weeks but my son has been sleeping in it at night here at home. We love it.

    awesome
    i love this tent so does my 2 month old. we use it at the beach it has uv screen but i always put a sarong over it and he loves laying it and being able to see everything. I love how it pops open good for moms who typical find themselves with one free arm. Great at the beach because i can just pop it open put him in it and set up the umbrella and get everything situated while i know he's in the shade. very lightweight.

    Great Product Easy to Use
    I bought this with a little hesitancy based on some reviews I read, but I am so glad that I did! I've traveled with it across the country and it is a GREAT light, compact,alternative to the playpen. I used it for my 2 month old baby and she was happy and safe in it. We have since used it at the beach and b/c it is lower to the ground (not the height of other tents) it had no problem with the wind. Easy to use, I've set it up and put it away VERY easily in just a matter of seconds many times and it is durable too. Great buy!

    Excellent product!
    We purchased the Peapod because we were traveling on a plane to visit family and didn't want to lug around the pack 'n play. Our 7 month old son slept perfectly in the tent. We chose not to bring along any of the accessories (the air mattress, the pump, the inside pad, or the carrying bag). We just laid a blanket on the floor and set the tent on top of it. Our son slept his usual 11 hours straight in it. Since it folds down flat it fit in our luggage easily. I'm so glad we now have this on hand for other uses!
