4Moms Breeze Plus Review

4moms Breeze Plus Portable Playard with Removable Bassinet and Baby Changing Station, Easy One-Handed Setup, from The Makers of The mamaRoo

The 4moms Breeze Plus playard provides parents with the convenience of having a safe and practical place for their little one to not only sleep but rest and play as well. 

If you have ever had this misfortune of arriving at your destination late at night with an already tired, fussy, and wailing baby, to then have to try and set up a travel crib with one hand you will understand that this is virtually impossible.

Do not worry. The 4moms Breeze comes with a simple and quick one-hand assembly. This definitely makes it stand out from its competitors.

The one-hand setup is so good you can even do it while holding your baby in the other arm. 

You just need to stand the playard up and push down on the handle in the middle and it will automatically set itself up. The latches are also automatic and just click into place.

All you need to do is secure the mattress to the bottom using the velcro fasteners and your playpen is ready for use. The entire setup takes less than 2 minutes – a lifesaver for parents with a tired baby or toddler.

Dismantling is as just as easy too. Pull the strap at the center and your pack n play will automatically collapse itself down to a size that will fit into the travel bag included.

As well as the super-easy setup, the 4moms Breeze also comes with a removable bassinet and changer. This makes it not only a perfect travel nursery but also a great addition at home if you are short on space.

One drawback of this playard as well as most others is that it is not machine washable and so can be quite difficult to clean. Check out our guide on how to clean such a pack n play.

  • Great price as the playard comes with a bassinet and a changing table.

Cons

  • The bassinet and changing table do not fit in the travel bag.

Who Is The 4Moms Breeze Plus Best Suited For?

The brilliant design of changing table, bassinet, and playard in one makes the 4Moms Breeze Plus a great purchase for people who have limited space as well as those who travel with their little ones.

The easy setup and takedown makes this great for people who travel quite a bit as the playard packs conveniently into a travel bag.

The easy setup also makes this the ideal 3 in one for parents who can’t put together the usual playard because of different circumstances.

As a parent, I have had the unfortunate experience of trying to juggle a tired wailing baby while trying to set up a playard that just doesn’t want to cooperate. This is not the way that you want to start your vacation.

To be honest with you, this playard will suit any parent who wants an easy to setup option when traveling, who wants to start their vacation stress-free, or who simply wants a space-saving option at home.
