 The PeaPod's inflatable air mattress protects baby from cold, damp floors while providing a comforting place to sleep. |
The PeaPod P101 is a lightweight sleeping tent, which comes with an inflatable air mattress to keep your baby's bedtime comfortable. An air pump is included. The mattress fits snugly inside the sleeping tent "pod," which features a wraparound mesh canopy with a wide, zippered opening to give parents quick and easy access. Baby can nap in comfort outdoors, thanks to the canopy's UV protection and to a wide windscreen. The pod also includes a washable sleeping bag that can double as a sleeping pad.
Travel Light
The last thing you need while you're traveling with a baby is to lug a lot of extra luggage around. Rather than packing a Pack'n'Play or a folding bassinet, which are cumbersome and heavy, simply pack the ultra-light, super-compact PeaPod away in your suitcase. At 14 x 5 x 14 inches (LxWxH) when closed, it takes up little space, and it comes with a carrying case for easy portability. And at 47 x 30 x 19 inches (LxWxH) when open, the PeaPod will take up little space once you reach your destination.
The PeaPod is also designed to open and fold shut quickly and easily. Other than the included air pump for quickly inflating the small mattress, no tools are needed: simply follow the directions to "snap" it into its standing position, and fold it back down quickly when finished. So whether you're traveling across the country, making a weekend trip to the beach, or simply spending the day at a friend's house, the PeaPod Portable Travel Bed makes it super-easy and convenient for baby to sleep comfortably and safely while on the go.
Baby Products Reviews of Kidco Pea Pod Indoor/Outdoor Travel Bed
Customer Review: Great so far!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received my PeaPOd Travel bed in the mail and I love it!!
I immediately opened it up to play around with it, check it out and see how easy the set up and take down was.
Beware when you open it up! I vaguely remember reading a review saying how quickly it opens up and to watch out! Unfortunately I remembered too late! It DOES spring out REALLY quickly. So much so that it flew out of my hands - I'm glad that my daughter wasn't around at the time! But, at least I know that I don't have to fool around with it to set up it :)
The quality seems really good. Sturdy fabric and poles, no holes or rips - in very good shape on arrival.
I blew up the mattress with my mouth (I don't want to take the pump with us to Europe, so I wanted to make sure it was manageable) and it took maybe a minute to do. It also deflated really quickly and easily (I pushed on it to get most of the air out, and then rolled it up to get the rest out. Then it was ready to be folded up flat!).
When inflated it fit pretty good into the tent - just a little extra room around the edges. Nothing that I'm concerned about.
I don't plan on using the blanket, as it's a little too bulky for my safety standards with my 10 month old. I think that since they advertise this bed for such a young age, they should give a more appropriate blanket for those parents that do use them. We will just bring our own blanket that she already sleeps with. Plus it will save us more space.
That being said, the blanket was a nice blanket and I'm sure would be nice and warm for those old enough to use it.
As to folding the tent back up: I have read reviews on this bed on so many sites and one thing that seemed to just keep coming back up was how difficult it was to fold back up. Needless to say I was a little nervous about it. I looked at the illustrated instructions once, tried to fold it up and failed. Looked at them again, a little more closely, and then folded it up perfectly with no problems. It took me all of 1 minute (from very start to very finish) and did not take the muscle of a grown man to do (which I had read in several reviews). I was going to bring the instructions along with if I did have problems, just to make sure we could do it again, but I am pretty confident that it will be no problem whatsoever.
I gave the bed 5 stars, but keep in mind I have not tested it out with my daughter and it has not had any wear and tear yet. I am a little nervous about whether my daughter will stay inside it when it's bedtime or if she will flip out if I zip it all closed. I plan on transitioning her into it over the week. If possible I might put the tent inside her crib for a couple naps so that she knows it's for sleeping time and shouldn't play in it or crawl out of it. We'll see how that goes :)
