Happiest Baby Reviews

I ordered the SNOO rental and I was given a date for arrival. It is 3 days past the arrival date and the product is still not here and the baby is due tomorrow. I have called each day that it wasn't here and I was told by each representative that the product was at the same specific location not too far from me. It has been there for 3 days now. They claim they call fedex each time and every single time I was told that it has left that fedex facility and on its way to me, however, when I track it, it is still at that location. It should not take 3 days to leave a location close to me. They keep apologizing and saying they understand my frustration, but they don't. Why not cancel that order and just resend it and stop playing around with me. If this product doesn't arrive today, I am writing another review and giving it a 1 star. This product better worth the exuberant cost and frustration it has caused me. Personally would not recommend this product based on my experience and I wish there was a competitor because I will definitely be giving them my business and not this company. The only reason they are thriving is because there is no competitor.

I want to write my honest review about Snoo after using it for 2months for my babyboy. Hope parents find this review helpful and make a decision about having snoo more wisely.
1. The snoo overall looks beautiful but tbh no one cares about the look! I We care about how beneficial the crib/bassinet could be! The problem with Snoo is you can't just reach in from the bed to pop a pacifier back in. You have to get out of bed and tend to the baby. And sometimes when you are tired it is like the hardest thing in the world.
2. The white noise on the "calming" modes are very loud on levels 3and 4 and my baby hates levels 3 and 4. So we just use the first 2 levels!
3. You cannot use Snoo without swaddle which is like straight jacket and it is not that much comfortable for baby. Also you have to buy it from them becuase snoo is not designed to work with any other swaddle. It means you need spending more money without having that much choice to choose colorful swaddles.
4. For safe use of Snoo you need to fully zipped up baby but recent psychological studies shows babies can have freedom to move their legs and arms. So it is not beneficial to have those swaddle/sack on snoo.
5. Sometimes, mostly during the day, my baby wakes up when I try to transfer him from my hands to Snoo. So remeber snoo will not work magic and all those moves are not beneficial.
6. The most IMPORTANT part of my review is about the " Snoo Matress" that no one pay attention to! Matress inside Snoo is super hard (I really mean it) and it makes your baby head to be flat! My baby head now is almost flat. We are trying different things now to prevent having helmet (which is remedy for flathead) but I do not think we will be successful based on what we have heard from pediatrician and physical therapist! Probably we need to pay $850, with insurance, to buy a helmet for my baby and as all you know it would be so difficult and uncomfortable for baby. So I will have to pay lots of money becuase I spent lots of money on having snoo! It does not make sense at all but it is what it is! I want the best for my baby but Snoo is not the best! I want you parents pay attention to all aspects of buying snoo.
Overall my idea is that it is better not to get s.th expensive and not useful like snoo and it is better to save this money for your baby college tuition!

Happiest Baby would not publish my negative review on the safety concern (see pictures bellow). My initial review for the sleepea:
As other reviewers point out on several other websites including this one, this swaddle is not safe. When waking up for night feeds we found the Velcro to be up on and over our baby's shoulders the first night. Worried about the material covering her face we watched her in it during a nap the following day. When baby moved and wiggled her arms the Velcro moved up her shoulders again. We did purchase the correct sized based on the website, followed the directions on the box, the recommendations from the website, and their Facebook video on YouTube. We did not purchase the cloth diaper to secure her arms down as responds from customer service on here recommend -it defeats the purpose of the 5 second swaddle as well as not feeling comfortable adding an extra layer over baby. I don't feel we should have to purchase more items to make the the swaddle we already bought safe and effective. When reaching out to customer service with concerns and attempt to exchange our other two unopened swaddles (the following day of receiving our order) thinking a size up would suit our baby better we were told to gift the two unopened ones and as there are no exchanges even with proof that we had not opened the other two boxes and offering to pay for shipping there and back to us by two different customer service agents. The fact that the company would not let us exchange sizes (we weren't not trying to get our money back) proves they too know their item is not of high quality. The ease of putting this swaddle on is not worth the possible risk of covering or blocking your baby's nose and mouth. We recommend the halo sleep sack or nest for a comfortable and safe swaddle for baby that is also easy for parents. In addition to the safety of both the Halo and Nest swaddles, Nest customer service allowed an exchange even after opening their swaddle. Overall, this is a total scam. Don't waste your money or risk your baby's safety.

The only downside of this crib is the cost. If you can get past paying $1000 for a crib, it is money very well spent. Just watch the youtube video of the snoo and you can see it in action. It will gently rock and vibrate your baby until he or she falls asleep. I will admit it didn't always work. When it did work, I was beyond happy as any mom needs her sleep and is willing to pay pretty much anything for it.

First off, let me start by saying the the SNOO is a beautiful piece of furniture. Even if all it does is sit in the corner looking pretty, you might be able to justify its hefty price. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I must say the SNOO does do everything it claims to do. It combines a white noise machine with a swing with a swaddle with a bassinet. It can literally replace all of those things and save some space in your house.

It's actually quite simple -- the SNOO pipes in white noise and rocks at different levels of intensity that you can control with your phone. And it automatically adjusts the intensity based on how much your baby is crying. It even has a weaning feature that helps the baby adjust to life without the SNOO as it grows older.

So far so good, but verdict is still out on whether it can help sleep train a baby to sleep through the night by 2 months! Now that would be something...

Our 3 month old daughter has been sleeping through the night almost since the night we brought her home from the hospital. The Snoo is amaaaaaazing! At first I was taken back by the price tag, but to be able to get a full night's sleep, and to be able to just give her a bottle and then put her in the bassinet and walk out of the room and watch her get a 3-4 nap during the day is priceless. With our first son, I remember how excruciatingly difficult it was to try to do the transfer from my arms to the crib and then to get out of the room without him waking up....the Snoo rocks!
