Chicco Alfa Lite Playard Sheets - White Sketch | White

Not sure why folks would pay hundreds of dollars more for the Lotus/BabyBjörn/Nuna. This is an excellent portable crib at a fraction less. Well made, super light, with side entrance, incredibly simple to assemble - what more do you need?

I bought both the Guava and Chicco to compare. They are both very well made and comparable. Chicco is cheaper than Guava, but I ended up going with Guava because: - Chicco doesnt fold down as compact as Guava - Legs were much easier and quicker to put away on Guava - Guava has an option to purchase a blackout shade/sun screen cover

Doesn’t fold down quite a small as I would like. I could have read the measurements. Seems like it will not fit in a suitcase. Have not yet used but have a driving trip in a couple months to test it out.

The actual bed is great and easy to set up. What annoyed me was the “+ caterpillar” for $8 more. From the photos it makes it look like it’s the carrying case. It’s really just a book that they decided to include for some reason. The photo with the carrying case isn’t on the regular priced one so seems like they do that to make you think that’s what you’re getting. It’s not and why I didn’t do 5 stars.

This play yard has almost everything you want in its design. Its incredibly light and easy to move. Its also easy to set up and take down. Fabric parts are solid and washable. Watch the product video on this page to see how fully and easily this is washable. The design is kind of amazing. Overall this is a great play yard. I dont get the zippered opening. That almost detracts from the overall sophistication of this play yard by being pointless. But otherwise, this product is the bomb.

I love that the mat is on the floor and I can open the side. It allows for easier transfers, safer play with my toddler running around while there is less crying because I can open the side, creating a barrier, but making her feel like she isn’t completely contained. Similar to Guava Lotus crib, but I think I like this one better. Cons compared to Lotus: - bag is slightly bigger when folded - bag is easier to carry - top rails are studier - stated max weight Pros compared to Lotus: + I like the zipper lock better on this (small buckle vs a clip + zipper area is bigger + mat is bigger + legs are less in the way + much cheaper Same as lotus: = mat on ground = has zipper area = easy to set up and break down

Would highly recommend. Way easier to put up and take down than the old Graco one I have 8 years ago! The mat is padded nicer too. I can set up this while holding baby and the zipper door is nice. It’s not super tall either which I like when putting baby down.

This was awesome to have when traveling.

This Chicco Alfa Lite Lightweight Travel Play yard is very light. It is very easy to get setup and easy to break down and put into the carry bag. This thing seems like it is going to be perfect for travel with the baby. I havent yet taken it on a trip but I can see how this thing is going to be fantastic for traveling with since it is very light and easy to carry around. Its also very easy to take down and get packed up in a hurry if needed. The playpen is very stable and secure and seems very durable. Its very solid materials. I would highly recommend this new Chicco Alfa Lite Lightweight Travel Playard.

Liked everything about this functionally; unfortunately the fumes from the foam pad did not dissipate. I can’t let my infant breath potentially harmful chemicals regardless of it’s convenience. Updating my review. The smell left after nearly a week and I also washed the fully removable mesh walls. This is the best choice of pack and plays out there because nursing the baby to sleep is essential. The zippers have child safety clips on them which are perfect for keeping smart toddlers from unzipping them. I’m not sure what sheet easily fits the pad but I will be putting down a waterproof mat and maybe just put holes in an old crib sheet to fit the design.
