Ready, Set, Sleep – A Super-Light and Easy to Set-Up Travel Crib
When my first child was born, I went on a quest for the lightest playard/Travel Crib available. Since then, some new lightweight cribs have come on the market but assembly was a challenge. Now, BabyBjorn has a new entry into the lightweight travel crib category. BabyBjorn Travel Crib Light has a simple “one movement” assembly, making it an innovative new baby gear offering.
I have not had the opportunity to try out the BabyBjorn Travel Crib Light yet but I am impressed by the quick assembly shown on this video.
The travel crib weighs only 5 kgs/11lbs and comes with a carrying case. The mattress cover and all fabric parts that come into contact with your child have been approved in accordance with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, class 1.

I like Eva the grandmother. Lo-tech enough and light enough to be easy for my mom to do it.

I like Eva the best. She did it quick and easily.
I like how compact it is folded and how lightweight it is that a child can even set it up

Adam, just because he’s a cute dad. :)
Great playyard!! Looks like Adam was fastest:)
Adam impressed me with his quick set-up and charm, he is so careful with the Baby and seems very kind…made a very good impression with the wonderful BabyBjorn Travel Crib Light!
I thought Adam did the best job, as he was fastest at setting up the crib and did it with the most ease.

I felt Eva best displayed how anyone could quickly assemble.

Eva the Grandma was most impressive because she did it with a little one right there by her and I know how challenging it can be. Plus, my in-laws always have trouble putting up the pack and play and this seemed so much more simpler.

i liked Adam because he was the fastest! 21 seconds is impressive!
I found Ann most impressive because how many teenagers really want to be stuck with a little sibling? Plus, you could tell she loved her sister.
20 seconds to set it up??? That was IMPRESSIVE–and I like acknowledging the condition that most of the time you will actually have the baby with you, and cannot be bothered with cumbersome parts and gadgets. LOVE this crib!
I liked Eva the best – she made it look very easy
I love all baby bjorn products and would love the crib for new grandbaby
I like the non-chalant way Adam ‘tossed’ it up. IT reminded me of my husband…. Thanks for the giveaway!

Man! I like everything about this! Talk about quick! I was truley amazed at the ease and quickness of this product!
I thought Ann did the best and paid the most attention to the child she was working with.
Eva, the grandma, was most impressive as sometimes grandparents are overwhelmed by today’s baby gadgets.
The BabyBjorn Travel Crib Light is awesomely portable w/ carrying case, and a snap to set up–as evidenced in 21 seconds flat (a close call between Adam & Eva)! I need something quick and reliable to set up, these kids keep me on my toes and every second counts!

Eva, the grandma was the most impressive to me for her fast time and the way her grandson sat still for so long!

I like how easy it was to be set up by the grandmother Eva in only 21.4 seconds. As a grandmother I like knowing that I could do the same.
Grandma Eve. She did it quickly with a minimum of fuss.
I was impressed that an older sibling and Grandma had no trouble at all setting this up and it was all done in a flash.
i think the dad’s set up was impressive. WHy. Well my husband does absolutely positively no baby/child care at all and he would never be standing there setting up a crib!!

Besides the fact that Adam did it the quickest – anything that Dad does to help out is an A+ in my book! LOL! ;)
This travel crib is amazing. I was most impressed with Ann’s set-up. She was the slowest of the three, but did you see how she hardly took her eyes off her baby sister the whole time? Loved it!

I like Ann – she had a moving baby to deal with!
Eva does it best! It’s so simple, even my mom (who is in her 70s and not at all skilled with such things) could do it!
I have 4-week old twin boys, and anything simple and easy like this is right up my alley! Too bad I won’t have it for the holidays… could really use it as we’re visiting family!

I was most impressed with Ann, the older sister. If I could get my oldest to help like that with my little ones, that would be great.
I love Adam’s set up, its nice to see a dad set up a pack n’ play so quickly.

LOL, my son was sitting here watching it with me and he thinks the dad was fastest. But the one I was most impressed with was Grandma Eva. Most the time when I use a travel crib it’s at Grandma’s house and I know my Mom goes crazy trying to set them up. I have to do it before I leave! I would love to win this!!!

I like how it looks like it could store right underneath a couch because it is that compact!
need this real bad. thanks for the chance.
Everyone wants something that is quick and easy to set up for any trip whether it is a visit to grammy’s house or the family vacation. This seems to be the perfect product for how easily it is set up. I also like the fact that it is lightwieght since even a trip to Grammy’s house means that we have quite a few baby items to bring!
I was so impressed that it only took him 21 seconds! Our older son is a swimmer and we go to a lot of swim meets and stay in hotels, this travel crib would be perfect

I liked Eva’s demo the best ~ if I got this it would be for using at our baby to be’s grandma’s house while she sits for us…her place is small and a product like this would be very useful…and according to Eva’s demo, easy for a grandma to set up!
Grandma Eva is the one I liked best. She’s got it down.
Adam did it super fast.
I actually liked Ann the best – she looks like an awesome big sister. And the crib is amazing!
I like how Eva did it. My mother always had troubel with the pack n play I used for my first little one, so this really showed me how easy it is for anyone.
All of them were easy, fast set-ups. I guess that’s just the nature of the product. I like that Eva (the grandma) could also set it up easily without any hassle or dealing with a bulky or heavy product. I would probably take this to my baby’s grandma’s house for when she babysits. Very useful!

The one I found most impressive was the older sister of the 18 month old (I believe she was 18 months I don’t remember her exact age). I found this most impressive because she appeared to be on the younger side and seemed to have no difficulty with it at all.

I’m a grandmother and our daughter is in the hospital now with twins on the way. I can relate with Eva and like how easily she handled it.
I think all 3 were impressive–the way they just held it up in the air and “fwip”–it just opened up with ease. The 3 people lets us know anybody can do it.
