Delta Children Deluxe By-the-Bed Bassinet Review

Editor’s note: This review reflects our experience with this Delta Children bassinet in 2022. Product specifications, availability and current safe-sleep guidance may have changed since publication, so always follow the latest manufacturer instructions and current pediatric guidance.

When you have a baby, you want to make sure they are safe no matter when. I often woke up in the middle of the night thinking I heard my baby make a weird sound, or simply wondering if everything was okay, so I would go check.

Bedside Height and Mesh Sides

We found the Delta Children Deluxe By-the-Bed Bassinet to be a practical solution for keeping the baby nearby without putting a full-size crib next to the bed. The height can be adjusted to work with the bed, while the mesh sides made it easy for me to see the baby without getting up.

The legs slide underneath the bed, which allowed the bassinet to sit close by while still keeping the baby in a separate sleep space.

Wheels, Storage and Assembly

The bassinet was easy to move on its wheels when needed. I also liked the side storage pockets for keeping small essentials close at hand.

My husband said it arrived almost fully assembled. He only needed to put a few pieces together, and the setup was quick.

Overall

We were very happy with the Delta Children Deluxe By-the-Bed Bassinet. For us, the adjustable bedside position, mesh sides, storage and relatively simple setup were the features that made the biggest difference.
