co-sleeper?

just wondering what you guys think about them i was planning on getting one..Thanks 

I just purchased the close and secure sleeper from target. It actually lays on your bed, and im watching my friends baby tonight.. and he's gonna be the guinea pig lol. Im not sure if thatcounts as a co-sleeper.. but it was alot cheaper than the bassinet types I see that attatch to your bed. I think co-sleepers are a really good idea.

heres a pic of the one I got... They are about 39.99... but I got this for 10$ because target had an error in the registry scanner.

I like the one you have   .Did you see the ones at walmart?

Nope, but I seen similiar ones at babys r us. I would rather have a co-sleeper than a bassinet. It just would put my mind at ease if I can just glance over instead of having to get up every 20 min lol.

Yeah I couldn't believe it. I was finishing my registry, and scanning stuff and that scanned for 9.98! I was like.. this has got to be too good to be true, because I watch all the sales papers and these are never on sale. So all the regular price checkers on the aisles were down.. So I found a lady that worked there, she scanned it and told me it wasn't on sale. I was determined though so I took it to the service desk to ask about it, and they said they had to give it to me for that price. They weren't even really rude about it because I guess they have been getting alot of errors like that.

i'm going to target tomorrow maybe i'll be lucky too

I have three other kids and in the middle of the night they all end up in my bed. I do not want my kids kicking him or laying on him ...

i'd honestly buy a pack n play over a cosleeper. You can pull it up to the bed side and you'll get alot more use out of it than a co sleeper.

I have one of those

They are a waste of money they can only be used for so long. You would be better off to get a pack in play that they can use for a few years then get the co sleeper that they can maybe use for 6-12 mos.

My SIL has been using her Close & Secure as a table-top changing station with her 15 month old now. Sooo..they can be "recycled" to live longer lives!

I wouldn't suggest using a pack n play as a bassient though. The mattresses aren't as firm and they sag when you use them for long periods of time.

A co-sleeper mattress is the same thing as a pack in plays mattress.

Does anyone have the cosleeper she's showing though? I'm wondering, also, how useful they are and also whether or not they fold up and can be easily transported like a pack n play. I need something that can be used while the baby sleeps when I work in the garden ... Any advice would be awesome!
