We have the full size one, but it's plastic not wood, and we found cheap sheets on ebay (do get the extra sheets, really.)
I wish we'd bought this when my son was a newborn. We started with the SnuggleNest in the middle of our bed, which made my husband and I feel cramped and separated. Then we tried moving the baby swing next to our bed-- probably a terrible position for sleeping every night and unbuckling at 3am was awful. I didn't break down and buy the co-sleeper until about 5 months. Fortunately my kid wasn't much of a climber and it took him a few more months to learn how to crawl over the tiny ledge into our bed-- at which point it becomes unsafe because he could theoretically also climb out entirely. Mind you, most kids at that age (8 or 9 months) will already have exceeded the weight limit of 20 lbs or so for the convenient cosleeper mode. But, while he was small enough, it was a godsend. It was really easy to lift or roll my son into our bed at 3am for a nursing and then move him back out of the way so we could all sleep. Not having to get out of bed when he cried was such a huge plus.
Then they recommend for older kids that it turn into a pack and play attached to the bed, which is really honestly no better than any other pack and play but it does have one wall slightly lower for lifting baby out. It wasn't really useful to us in that configuration.
Anyway, we've loaned it out to a friend but are looking forward to using it from day one with baby #2.
