Advantages: Nice colours/finishes

Disadvantages: Expensive for the amount of use

I bought the ivory version of this stand for my little boys moses basket. It was quite a bit more expensive at £32 compared to other stands, but I wanted a stand in white/ivory & also one that had the option of rocking.

The stand is very good quality and finish. A bit tricky to put together (takes 2 people to hold all the bits). There are 2 plastic discs that can be adjusted to (supposedly) stop the stand rocking, but don't rely on them to stay put & do the job they're supposed to! On the downside, I was hoping to be able to use the stand for the babys bath aswell, but it didn't fit on this stand (perhaps it's just my bath, but being a M&P bath I hoped it would fit).

At the end of the day, I should have gone for a cheaper version - my son didn't much appreciate the rocking, & I found it easier to put the basket on the floor with regards getting him in & out. Also, he was only in his moses basket for about 7 weeks, so it wasn't used very much at all.

Summary: Go for something cheaper
