Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! October 7, 2008

I read the reviews here and tried it, it was better then I imagined. Set up in minutes and extremely lightweight. I will throw away my Graco pack and play after getting this. Everything is easy to put back in the bag as well. As for sheets, I called Bjorn they recommended Kidline porta-crib sheets and they fit perfect. They are coming out with their own sheets soon.

After much research into cribs and portacribs, we decided to go with the Baby Bjorn Travel crib fir both home and travel (we travel a lot). I couldn't find any reviews from people who used this crib as the primary crib before our purchase, so it was a bit of a gamble but we went ahead. It was a fantastic decision - our baby loves the crib and sleeps very well in it both at home and in hotels.
It is SO easy to assemble and pack up, you don't even need to read the instructions! It is a little on the small side, but our 3 month old who is very long has plenty of room, and I think it will fit her for many more months. Besides, it is the compact nature that makes it so portable. We want her to associate the crib with sleep, so she doesn't use it as a play area, it might seem a little on the small side if you wanted it for play. The mattress is quite thin, but she is certainly comfortable, and it has a waterproof cover so no stains.
There are no baby bjorn crib sheets available at this point (I'm sure eventually they will come) but we found the Koala Kids Cotton Play-yard sheets fit fine (they are wider and not quite long enough but somehow they end up fitting very well)
In the packed up state, it is about the size of an art portfolio, and weighs less than 11 pounds, so it is very easy to carry. We have not taken it on a commercial flight yet, so cannot comment on whether it fits into overhead bins, We also find that we can leave a sheet on the mattress and fit a blanket into the case with the crib, so it is ready to go when we arrive (no frantic unpacking of suitcases to find the swaddle blanket!)
We are so happy with our purchase of this crib, and for our small house and constant travel it is a godsend. Highly recommend.
Better than the Pack n Play September 29, 2008

I used the Graco version for the first two years, until my son was able to start climbing out of his real crib, and potentially able to do the same with the travel crib. We travel a lot, visiting relatives by airplane and going on cruises and we took the Graco everywhere. Now my son has outgrown that crib we still needed something for him to sleep in when we travel, and when he stays at his Grandparent's home. I bought this, although I was apprehensive about the price, and have loved it since I pulled it out of the box. It just pops right up and is ready for the baby in seconds, is bigger than the Pack n Play, and my son loves it. I put him in it when it came and he wanted to play in it all day long. It is extremely light and is small enough to be a carry on on an airplane. LOVE it. I wish I had it from the beginning.
Wonderful September 29, 2008
I love this product. It has been perfect for the trips to the grandparents and for visiting friends, even just for the day. I actually bought a pack and play but the fumes alone made me want to return it. I love that the materials do not have a strong chemical odor and that all but the matress itself can be washed.
Excellent portable crib for travel. None that I've used are better September 7, 2008

I bought this crib in preparation for a family trip with my 20 month old son. All these products look great on the website and in person but until you actually take it on a trip and use it, you just don't really know if it will be money well spent or just another piece of equipment confined to the storage room. Anyhow, the first thing that struck me was the size of the crib when its collapsed and in its carry case. It is not big at all. Very compact and easy to carry. The size of the crib is basically half of the base size as it folds in half. Everything else folds flat and in on itself. If you check the Baby Bjorn website, it shows a demo of how you open and close the crib. It REALLY is that easy. The build quality of the materials is excellent and should last a long time. That should be a given considering the price of this crib.
The ultimate test of a crib though, no matter how much we like it, is if your child will actually sleep in it. We were a bit worried on the first night of the trip; being in a new place in a new crib we thought that our son might be a bit fussy. We crossed our fingers and put him in and he was asleep in the blink of an eye. We used it for the duration of our week long trip and we loved it. We put him in it and he would be very comfortable in there. I think the mesh sides really help as it is see through and he probably feels less confined. The only downside I can see is that as your kid gets taller, my son is about 34-35" now, they will be able to climb out by themselves. I think he could get out now if he really tried. Not a big deal if you are careful, but this isn't something you want to use if you need them to be "locked down" in the crib for a period of time.
Anyways, combined with the convenience, portability, quality, and ease of use, I highly recommend this crib, even for the somewhat high price.
