I have been looking everywhere to find out who sells the PNP w/ full bassinet and I can't find any. I swear I saw at least one such model once upon a time (it could have been at BRU, Target, Baby Depot, Penneys, Sears...). Has anyone purchased one lately? Graco still shows them on their web site, so they must still exist, but I sure don't know where else to look.

TIA,

Lori-

Any specific reason you want a fullsize one? The 3/4 ones are more than sufficient for a new baby since they really don't move around - especially when they're swaddled. We used our for a full three months.

If your baby is going to be so big that s/he requires a fullsize bassinette, then s/he will likely be beyond the 15 lb. weight limit.

We bought a Graco Pack N Play with the full bassinet and removeable changing table at BRU. I was just at my local one this weekend, and they still sell it. Mine happens to be the French Bear version, but there are others. Just an FYI though...you are not "supposed" to put the baby in the bassinet with the changing table still on there, but we do it anyway. DS is able to sleep on the half that isn't covered by the changing table. So really, you could get by just fine with a bassinet that wasn't the full size.

Just my 2 cents.

Have you gone to actual stores? My target has about 4 different pack n' plays, including this one with the full size bassinet.

BRU has several, here is one

I have also seen them at Baby depot.

Edited to say, I just came across this one at Babyage.com. Another bonus is that shipping is 3.95 flat.

I've recently been to the first three of the stores I listed. I had visited the other two a long time ago so I don't really remember what I saw where.

I thought the full-size bassinet was recommended in previous posts to get the most use out of the bassinet... but maybe not everyone would agree. I hadn't realized the weight limit was so low. But I guess it's a moot point if we can't find it anyway! :)

I just bought my P n'P 2 weeks ago @ BRU (in AZ). It was the Graco, Sweet Dreams in Clarion pattern & it has a full-size bassinet, along w/all sorts of other gadgets.

I found the best deals on play and packs with full size bassinet at TOYS R Us, not Babies R Us... so you might check there.

I just wanted to say I'm really glad we got the full-size bassinet. DD is 7 1/2 monts and only 15 lbs. now. But she was very tall. She slept in the bassinet in our room for 4 months and, with her height, a 3/4 size one would not have worked well for us. The only reason we finally switched her to the crib is because she could roll over.
