We bought the playpen crib in anticipation of Easter (even though we were stuck indoors) to have a bed for our little one when we travel. Initially, I was a bit hesitant, fearing that it wouldn't hold up or that it wouldn't be of good quality, but fortunately, it proved me wrong.

The playpen crib is of very good quality for my taste, it has two levels that comfortably accommodate newborns to older children. Inside, it fits a 120x60 mattress (like a regular crib) which you will need to purchase separately as it is not included (we bought it as a set with the mattress at a children's store for a slightly higher price than the Kifissos Bus Station). If you choose not to get a mattress, the playpen crib has a basic floor with a slightly soft material, but I believe it is only meant for playing and not for sleeping. The changing table is very practical and we can easily change our 70cm tall and 8kg child on it, and I think it will withstand a lot more. It has so many pockets that make organizing the baby's things very convenient.

Assembly/disassembly time: The first time was a bit time-consuming until I figured out how the mechanism works, but the subsequent times are very quick, taking me 5 minutes to set up and 10 minutes to pack everything away properly.

Construction quality/durability: It has a very good locking system for the connections, so if the bottom is not lifted, the joints won't come loose. This system practically makes it impossible for the child to unfasten the connections. The materials are of good quality and easy to clean. I should note that it wobbles a bit in terms of construction and you wouldn't call it "rock solid," but time will tell how durable it is, although this doesn't concern me much as it seems very sturdy.

Volume & Portability: The items fit easily together in the carrying bag. At first, you might think it will be like the instructions on medication packages that once opened, you can't fold them back exactly, but this is not the case. I can easily pack everything within 10 minutes, as I mentioned before. The carrying bag is not the most high-quality, but it is sufficient to comfortably transport all the components of the playpen crib with minimal bulk.

Negatives so far: The changing table has metal fasteners underneath it (at the 4 corners) as well as at the point where the fabric of the changing table connects to the rest of the playpen. These metal fasteners are tightly secured to each other, resulting in the fabric tearing in one spot (essentially, the fabric hole expanded). There are similar metal fasteners on the changing table (perhaps in other parts of the construction that I may not be aware of) that either don't need to be fastened to avoid tearing or, if you do fasten them, don't pull them forcefully from the fabric to unfasten them, but use a tool to press on the joint to easily release them.

In conclusion, the quality, comfort, and practicality of the playpen crib in relation to its price make it a great value for money.
