is the bassinet free standing when not on the stroller? could it be used as a bassinet in the house as a bassinet?

Yes it is a free standing bassinet. We have twins and when they were little they always fell asleep in the stroller. Once we got home we were able to take the bassinet off the stroller and let them sleep a bit longer. We'd also have them sleep in them if we were out at a friend's house for dinner. I put a little cushion underneath when they were tiny because the padding is a little thin. We used the bassinets everyday until the girls were about 5-6 months, once they were too tall to fit in them. Really pleased with this product.

It is and it can be! For the price, it's WAY cheaper than any free standing bassinet and it's got more usability than those others! We actually just spent the weekend in a hotel and our 5 month old slept it in on the floor. He slept very soundly too!

Yes. It can be used throughout the home. It has handles so you can carry it with you. I use it all over. When I am in various spots in the house, outside on the lawn, on picnics, or as a sleeping area for the infant on trips. It really is great! I also love that I can change my sons diaper while he is still laying in it when we are out and about. This way I do not have to use the germ filled changing table.

Yes it is free standing with small "feet" on the bottom to protect the bottom surface from being flush in the ground. We have used it as a bassinet in the home when traveling

It shouldn't and is considered unsafe for unsupervised/overnight sleep according to their website.

Your uppa baby bassinet should be fully open without the stroller... Of yours doesn't, check and make sure you have completely assembled it. My uppa baby bassinet fits great in this stand.

You just flip parts of the stroller up to make it a bassinet. No need to purchase.

In theory, yes. I haven't tried it though, so I don't know whether the bassinet would sit too high to fit the stroller frame itslf

In the stroller seat part yes, you can choose to have them face either way. The bassinet and car seat adapters only face one way, which is towards you

The answer is something in between. The changing table is far easier to take off than the bassinet, so you could just put it someplace else if you wanted. But you ca't hang it off the side. Hope that helps!

I'm not sure, I'd have to look up my stroller instructions, but my baby is 4 months old and weighs about 16-17lbs (I think or more) and he still uses the bassinet. His feet aren't too close to the edge. Even if I lift the bassinet to stroller position now his feet dont get cramned too much at the end. I like this because if it is windy or raining it doesn't get him all wet. The hood of the stroller would be nicer if it was a little bigger or had a middle position. There isn't any shocksystem, but it's a stroller and I'm not jogging or going over bumpy terrain with it. I love the stroller. But I can't see some people not.

Yes, I'd say this item is essentially a bassinet. We use this as a bassinet at night and for occasional naps during the day. The bed is not heavy so it's easy to move around your home if needed. We don't have the matching bouncer but find this works well on its own. Our baby is three months old and in the 90th percentile for height but it looks like this will fit her for while. Bottom line, if you love the design I'd go for it. I think our baby would probably sleep just as well in something cheaper, but I'm glad to have something neutral and simple around.

You don't. This is a bassinet. It is only useful until the baby can sit up or pull themselves up. It isn't like a pack and play where the height can be reduced and honestly it's too narrow for that anyway.

No its not. It's to wide and the bassinet don't properly sit well on the stand and makes it slouch.

Yes the bassinet transforms into the seat it's a great buy!!! My baby loves her stroller

Not really...I use the sit/stand part to put things on when I don't need it. This stroller is really long and very large. It was a lot bigger than I was expecting. It's very nice and good quality though :)

Yes the bassinet has to be removed. I don't think the toddler seat offers enough support for a newborn so either use the car seat, the bassinet or their is a newborn insert you can buy for the toddler seat. It's a great stroller!

Definitely not! The bassinet is big and bulky. It doesn't even fold flat with the regular stroller seat on.

Yes and Yes.I actually found it annoying attached to the bed because I had to crawl to the foot of my bed to get out. I also found that I needed to sit up with my legs off the bed to have the leverage to lift the baby into my bed. It was too awkward to reach over while lying down.So I used it as a bassinette but it's size made it really portable for holidays or RV camping and height made it easier to lay the sleeping baby down as opposed to a pack n play where you have to reach down to the ground.

Stephany, we used an uppababy stroller bassinet and it worked great. Check your dimensions for your bassinet to the uppababy. I think we even tightened up the curved plastic pieces to make it a little more snug - rescrewed them - but that was just to make sure the bassinet did not shift by maybe an inch. It was still very secure before we did that. It worked out great and we were so glad we didn't purchase a more expensive, seperate bassinet. Kathy
