Albott Baby Playpen, Upgraded 18 Panels Foldable Baby Fence with Game Panel and Safety Gate, Adjustable Shape, Portable Baby Play Yards for Children Toddlers Indoors (18 Panel, White+Grey)

Very pleased with this play pen over all. It was delivered in good condition on the first day of the delivery window. It unfolded easily and we just needed to arrange it in our desired shape and then snap the upper panel connector pieces down to complete set up. (Since we are using it on carpet we didn't test the suction cup feature so I can't speak to that.)Grand baby loves it and the activity panel. There are no sharp edges. It is sturdy when she pulls up holding onto it. It is big enough for my Viking of a son to lay down with her in it for naptime.Yes it was on the expensive side but totally worth it.

I love the size of the product. I wanted a play pen that i wouldn't feel guilty setting my son into while I do dishes, read a book, etc.... it works. Two thumbs way up for overall helpfulness.I have hard wood floors and was excited for the suction cups to hold it in place, they worked awesome for about 3 days. Hard to keep your floor super clean with a toddler and the pen now moves. I took some paracord and rigged it around the entertainment stand, low and tight enough not to worry about a choking hazard.The panels can lock into place with the top piece in between each panel. Lift it up to be able to fold the panel, push it down to lock it in place. Some what useful feature and at the same time, not. My son can rattle the walls to loosen the top enough to make the top lock come undone.At the bottom in between the panels you might notice the thick plastic piece. That goes over the suction cups and helps to block the pieces from folding. Useful yes, but while they are on, you obviously can't fold the play pen down.Hence part of the bad (partially self inflicted). To clean his play area is a full evolution. 1. Child out of play pen, hopefully napping in his bed. 2. Clear out all toys. 3. Take all the pieces off the bottom in between the panels off to make it foldable again. 4. Unlock the top piece inbetween the panels. 5. (Due to my paracord) fold panels in towards tv, otherwise you would fold it up normally. 6. Sweep floors 7. Steam mop floor 8. Unfold play pen and set shape. 9. Lock down top pieces and reinstall bottom locking pieces. 10. Throw a few toys back in.Overall: my son loves being able to have the ENTIRE living room to play. Which makes our lives easier. Does the product live up to all initial hopes, no, but how many products ever really do. He hasn't been able to open the door. The play pen itself has never hurt him.P.s. the opposite side of the pen from the baby door does have a push button and a couple roller style wheels. My son could care less, he likes his toys and climbing obstacles.Installation note, especially OCD people, not only does alternating the colors matter, paying attention to whether the side of the panel has a fish or an octopus will save you grief. Because once you lock the top pieces on, how it's built is how it's built unless you want to risk the stability of the pen.

I love that you can shape this playpen to fit a room. I am a little confused by a review I read that said the bottom pieces will never come off once attached. I didn't use them for the longest time because of it, but when I removed two panels to make more space in the room, I gave one a try and they literally slide on and off--they don't even snap on. The playpen worked decently without them, but after I put them all on it definitely helps the playpen keep its shape. I set it on partially on an area rug, partially on vinyl floor, with a foam playmat inside, so I'm not really using the suction cups. I tried the suction cups on my vinyl floor, but the floor is too textured so it's not really and option for me. Not using the suction cups hasn't affected its stability. I also haven't had any issues with the door, as another review mention. It stays latched even though it's the panel my little one hangs on the most and stands holding onto the door.

The media could not be loaded.  Assembly was not easy and I've built all kinds of things. Way more complicated than it should be. No instructions were included which I saw someone else post and emailed them. They did email me the directions which were on a single page with tiny print and small hard to view pictures. It's average on sturdiness.

Took about 30 minutes to set up the way I wanted. Once everything was locked down it became very sturdy. My 10-month-old basically hangs on it and uses it to stand up constantly and it's not going anywhere. It's a good size as well and gives her a lot of room to play. We even have a little play kitchen inside with her toys and it's still roomy enough for me to sit and lay down in. Would highly recommend it if you have a child that is wanting to get into everything.

I’m updating this review and upping it to 5 stars. The product has always been 5 stars and now the customer service would be ten stars if possible. They responded so fast and kept on emailing me until they understood what my problem was… then sent me a replacement to connect with my recent. I was not expecting this kind of service. It was impressive. Very grateful as now I can connect these panels for a BIG play area. Thank you!!!!Old Review…I bought an entire new order to connect it to my first gate I bought... it is supposed to be the identical item. When I got it... what a pain... they made some minor changes to the product and I could not connect it to the first fast properly to make my play area bigger. SO disappointed and upset. I had to use weird items to attach the gate and the visual was not pretty :-(((. SHAME as these are wonderful items and they should be able to connect with each other.
