HALO Bassinet Swivel Sleeper Review

 
For a mother, having the newborn as near as possible makes often feedings easier, especially during the night. Similarly, it is likely to help in having a vigilant eye on the little one who keeps moving and shaking too frequently after being awake. For keeping the baby close, you will definitely need a bassinet. However, attached bassinets or standard stationary are difficult to maneuver, particularly while recovering after delivery. Moreover, you might be a bit hesitant to keep the little one on the bed. 
 
You will need a bassinet that keeps the baby closest to you as well as ensures easy maneuverability.  This is exactly where you will need the HALO Bassinest Swivel Sleeper that comes with lots of features to ensure full motion, maximum proximity, convenience, ease of use, and comfort for any parent who use it. 
 

Top Features of the HALO Bassinest Swivel Sleeper:

 
Swiveling up to 360 Degrees: 
 
Usually, using a small, rectangular-shaped bassinet makes it a hassle to get out of the bed, which is troublesome especially at night. However, with the 360° feature, it becomes quite hassle-free to get in and out of bed. This HALO bassinet rotates up to 360° for bringing the little one close to you, swinging it over the bed, and moving it easily.
 
Mesh Sides:

 Mesh patterns are known for their beauty and air circulation. This bassinet has sides of mesh due to which it is breathable and transparent enough for you to see your baby.
 
Lowering Side Wall:

This ability is perhaps the most distinct one, which you might have seen in any other bassinet. Its sidewall comes with the ability to lower itself down returns to its original position automatically once you put some pressure using your hand, making it easy to hold the little one for feedings in the middle of the night.

This removes the trouble of standing up to lower the newborn or leaning far enough with the risk of self falling. You can even lock the functionality once your baby becomes older. Because of lowering sidewall and swivel features, you can hold your baby without moving out of your bed, which is commendable by breastfeeding mothers.
 
Adjustable Base and Low Legs:

The height of bassinest is adjustable, due to which you can move it from 22″ to 34″. This allows bringing it up to the height of most beds. This is a plus point as compared to the standard height bassinets.
 
Skinny Legs:

Such legs are capable of sliding under the bed to save significant space. The base is a long slim pedestal having four wider feet outwards. Although the feet consume some space, they are capable of being positioned under a stand or bed. Such legs are perhaps the priority of those residing in a small house. 
 
Soothing Station on Battery:

Nursing timer, lullabies, nightlight, vibration, and nature/womb sounds make up the battery-operated soothing station. The womb sounds are truly soothing, while the vibration helps to fall asleep when the baby starts to move.
 
Some more cool features of this bassinet include side pockets for storing baby stuff, included fitted sheet, and suitability for little ones up to 30 pounds or 5 months.

The brand recommends covering the custom mattress with 100% cotton fitted sheet having 200-thread count. This sheet is precisely designed to fit the mattress of hourglass shape.

It also has an envelope design for a safe fit, which means it does not become lose while in use. To add to the ease and convenience, the sheet is purely machine washable.

 The mattress pad features a white waterproof polyester-based layered design. Such a design ensures protection from leaks. The mattress also has an hourglass shape that fits in the sleeper well, is machine washable, and ensures maximum protection when paired with the HALO fitted sheet. 
 

Health and Safety

 
With a wide base and good weight, there is obviously no risk of it tipping over. According to the brand, the bassinet fulfills all standard safety regulations, and that it has the seal of Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association or JPMA. Assessing its mattress and fabrics, they are mill-based but are health friendly. The frame is free from toxic substances such as lead, phthalates, and BPA. 
 
However, there is a minor concern regarding tightening the knob for rising as well as stabilizing the sleeping area’s height. If this is done tightly, it might supposedly lead to slipping down of bed if the baby is inside. However, this issue shall never crop up if proper care and attention is given at the time of tightening the knob.
