Overview

Description

Traveling with your little one is a great way to share new experiences, but most baby products aren’t easy to carry (especially through airports). Guava set out to change that. To keep your hands free, the Lotus Carry Bag converts into a comfortable, easier-to-carry backpack.

At 13 lbs, the Lotus is over 50% lighter than traditional portable cribs. For breathability, every side of the Lotus uses mesh from the top panel to below the mattress.

When it’s set-up, the Lotus features a handy side zipper door. You can unzip the lockable door to comfort your little one and help them fall asleep, or turn the travel crib into a crawl-friendly playard for toddlers.

The Lotus comes with an insulated, waterproof mattress made out of high-quality padding for comfort and protection. The mattress is floor-resting, which helps prevent squeaking and shaking, and makes the Lotus easier to carry and move. The aluminum frame and overbuilt hinges will stand up to years of use.

It’s also Greenguard Gold Certified.

Love it! Have it set up in the basement for when grandma watches peanut while we work. Easily take it down and bring it to grandma’s house for a sleepover. Plan to travel with it on a plane this month.
