    Bassinets are a great space-saving alternative to a baby crib, but there are so many to choose from.

    In an effort to fully disclose, this article contains affiliate links. If you purchase something, we receive a commission. For more information, see our disclosure page.

    Here's a list of our favorite baby bassinets, and why we chose them.

    Best Bassinets for 2021

    1. Maxi-Cosi Bedside Bassinet (our top pick)
    2. Mika Micky Bedside Sleeper Bassinet
    3. Graco Sense2Snooze bassinet with cry detection technology
    4. Besrey bassinet for baby
    5. Dream on Me traveler portable bassinet

    Here's why:

    1. Maxi-Cosi Bedside Bassinet

    The Maxi-Cosi bassinet is extremely adjustable to suit your needs and folds compactly if you plan to travel.

    What we like:

    • It adjusts 5 different height positions
    • It has a storage basket right underneath.
    • Folds down easily for traveling.
    • It's made with breathable mesh, so you can have it right by your bedside, and baby can still see you.
    • Gorgeous design

    What we don't like:

    • It's a little pricey, but easily worth the investment if your home doesn't have room for a big crib.
    • We wish it had wheels for easier mobility.

    2. Mika Micky Bedside sleeper bassinet

    The Mika Micky bassinet is another popular option especially since it has wheels for better mobility throughout the day.

    What we like:

    • It has 7 heigh adjustments.
    • It has 2 sided breathable mesh.
    • It has wheels for more mobility.
    • One side zips down so you can easily comfort baby at night.

    What we don't like:

    There isn't much storage other than a pocket on the side.

    3. Graco Sense2Snooze Bassinet with cry detection technology

    Graco sense2snooze bassinet

    This Graco bassinet has a lot more bells and whistles with a feature that senses baby cry and helps soothe them back to sleep with white noise or vibration.

    What we like:

    • It has gentle music, nature sounds, and white noise to help baby fall back asleep.
    • It has breathable mesh.
    • It has wheels.

    What we don't like:

    • It has a couple of pockets, but a storage basket would have been better.
    • It's very pricey most likely because of the extra sounds, music, and cry sense technology.

    4. Besrey Bassinet for Baby

    The Besrey Bassinet is another bassinet that many moms love. Especially that detachable zipper mosquito net.

    What we like:

    • It has a decent size storage basket underneath.
    • It has breathable mesh all around it.
    • It's lightweight and portable.
    • Detachable zipper mosquito net, perfect for keeping bugs off of baby when you are outdoors.

    What we don't like:

    • It doesn't have much in the way of adjusting.
    • It doesn't have wheels.

    5. Dream on Me Traveler Portable Bassinet

    The Dream on Me bassinet is another more affordable option, but it does have a few drawbacks.

    What we like:

    • It's very affordable.
    • It's very easy to clean.
    • Can be folded compactly for traveling.

    What we don't like:

    • It has a weight limit of 25 pounds.
    • It doesn't have wheels.
    • It has no storage whatsoever.
    • It doesn't have any kind of adjustments.
