I planned on getting an xpen - but was actually quite surprised at their price! Cheapest I can find here is $90. I've started thinking that maybe a playpen would be a better purchase - Walmart has one for $54 and one for $99 - I would likely get the more expensive one as it's a big bigger and seems more sturdy - so I'd be spending more - but, it's something I'd likely reuse down the line if I have kids, or when friends visit with theirs.
Anyone have any pro's or con's to both? I just want to make sure my little girl is safe and happy! She's used to an xpen now, so do you think a playpen would be too big a change for her? It has mesh sides so you can see in and out, and at night time I would place it right next to my bed.
Any advise would be so appreciated! |
I bolded what I'm going to relpy to -a determined puppy can hook their nails in the mesh and climb or worse.. get stuck. I had one for Cheri and she lasted about 2 days before I saw her 1/2 way up
