Matching the bassinet height to your bed
Bedside mode only works when the two sleeping surfaces meet. Here is how we measure, in about two minutes, with a tape and no guesswork.
Measure the top of your mattress
From the floor to the top of the mattress, at the side where the bassinet will go. Write it down.
Compare to the three settings
BCOL heights are 17.7, 18.5 and 19.3 inches. Choose the one that leaves the bassinet surface level with, or just a touch below, your mattress top.
Click both sides
Press the height buttons on both legs and make sure each side clicks into the same position.
Tall bed?
If your mattress sits higher than the top setting, use the bassinet as a standalone sleeper right beside the bed rather than in bedside mode. One parent in our reviews keeps theirs at the foot of a tall bed for exactly this reason.
Sofa days
The lowest setting lines up with most sofas, which is handy for daytime naps next to you in the living room.
Incline only when you need it
The incline setting is for settling after a feed when reflux is a problem. Return it to flat for ordinary sleep.
Ready for the bedside
Three heights, three modes, three colors. Find yours on our product listing.
