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!
