Love the sleep sack! Really helped my little one sleep.

*Picture shown isn't correct way to wear, just that it would look cute*
Our 2 month old daughter wasn't sleeping longer than a couple hours at a time at night until with tried the Zen swaddle. Still isn't sleeping longer than 5-6 hours, but that just might be her schedule. We really love it though. Its nice because she was a tall baby(18 inches and by 2 months she was already 24 inches) and finding larger swaddles had been a struggle. This one is nice because it has two pockets, one for smaller babies and one for taller babies like mine. Would 100% suggest to everyone! (:

He knows how to escape a swaddle so having zippers helped. He still figured out how to get out of it, smh.

Amazing! My (then) 6 week old began sleeping ALL night. We’ve had great sleep For weeks now. 10 hours in a row blew my mind for a newborn!
Yacqueline C.
I love the material but I’m running into an issue after about 2-3 wears it stretches out and no longer fits the baby snug enough for her not to wiggle out. This has to be washed at least every every night to keep its form.

I ordered the Zen Sleeper and Zen Swaddle for a baby gift. The transaction went flawlessly and the products arrived in pristine condition.
Julie C.
I love these so much! I’m currently only using the swaddle since my daughter loves to be swaddled! She’s a little escape artist with her arms and she hasn’t been able to get out from this swaddle. She usually sleeps about 8 hours a night but since I started using the swaddle she has slept for 10-11 hours and she’s only two months old. I seriously recommend these, especially if your kiddos love personal touch from mommy!
Canh-Lien N.
She loves her puffins sleep sack because when we put it on her she knows it’s sleepy time. Most nights it only takes her 10-15 mins to soothe herself to Dreamland with Bedtime Bunny.
Yvonne R.
It seems to have worked. My baby has gone from sleeping 2 hours at a time up to 6 with the swaddle. The only thing I don’t like is the Velcro for the swaddle. I feel like It doesn’t hold enough and my baby can easily on swaddle himself. The material is very soft though.

For my grandson due in August.

The swaddle helped my son go from 2-3 hours of sleep a night to 6 on the first night we tried it. We have used other swaddle sleep sacks with some results but nothing like this. I immediately ordered another one for backup after the success of our first night.
Katie S.
I bought the zen sack for my 10 week old son. I absolutely love it! He now sleeps at least 7 hours straight through the night. He usually falls asleep within 90 minutes after I put the sack on him. I highly recommend this.
Jenna F.
We used nested bean sleep sacks for our oldest so when our newborn wasn’t sleeping good we made the purchase. Huge difference in her sleeping! Love these and will recommend them to anyone!
Lindsey S.
Not impressed with the swaddle. It hasn’t improved my 5 week olds sleep. It’s also hard to get tight. He breaks out of it and it bunches up around his neck even though we start around his armpits. I bought the bundle so I am hoping he likes the arms out sleep sack better. That’s the only reason I haven’t returned. If I could return just the swaddle, I would.
Megan W.
The first night we used the swaddle, our 5 week old woke up only once during the night. She’s now 7 weeks old and is sleeping through the night! This has been a game changer for us!
Alexis L.
My baby was a decent sleeper to begin with but prefered to be held. At 5 wreks I bought the nested bean and it has helped her sleep 6-8 hours a night. We're using the swaddle and have used the sack for a couple naps. It eill be great as she gets older as well.
Amanda Q.
I love the weighted sleep sack/swaddle - I really do feel it helps my little one not to wake during her reflexes in the night that otherwise would wake her up. The only reason I am deducting one star is I wish there was a zipper or snaps at the bottom of the sack to check for a wet diaper during the night. I don’t prefer to have to un swaddle her in order to see if we need a diaper change, as that gets her all riled up and wakes her fully.
Jessica H.
We start off snugg as tight as we can, then when we wake up from nap or night sleep it has ridden up and is bunched up at the. Ottom of her jaw. At least 2 inches worth of material. She seems to like it and be comfortable in it, but dont like the bunching. I bought a combo pack with the sleep sac so ill try that when we are ready to unswaddle.
Melanie H.
My 6 week old daughter is sleeping well at night thanks to the Zen swaddle! During the night, she wakes up only for a couple of feedings and goes right back to sleep in her bassinet in between. It is a lifesaver!
Zoua Pa X.
So far, the Zen Swaddle has helped my son sleep in longer stretches at night. Before, he slept only about 2 hours and would need to feed. Now, he sleeps 3-4 hours then feeds once at night. He doesn’t quite yet sleep through the entire night, it might be that he still needs to be fed at night. I have no complaints at all about the Zen Swaddle, as I can see that my son knows that when he switches from his day swaddle to the Zen Swaddle, that it’s bedtime. I’ll continue to see if there are changes once my son is able to sleep through the night.
Tori M.
i ordered the swaddle and sleep sack bundle, i tried over and over again to get the swaddle tight enough so that my boy couldn’t break out of it, and it seems like the wings on it are just too long. after about an hour of sleeping he would break his left arm out and wake himself up, resulting in less sleep for him and mama. we are transitioning him out of a swaddle right now and will be in the sleep sack soon, i still hope that one works!
Kari .
7 weeks old and sleeping through the night the 3rd night we put him in it! Thank you!
Emily L.
The swaddle helped my 2 month old sleep longer stretches right away. He was going 3 hours between feedings and then once we started using the sleep swaddle, he began going 4-5 hours between feedings. I would definitely recommend!
Mary K.
I ordered the two pack swaddle plus sleep sack. So far I’ve tried the swaddle. The pros are that is very soft cotton and feels like high quality construction. The cons are that because the material is so soft and stretchy, my little guy breaks out of the swaddle in no time. Not that he can undo the Velcro, but that he can wriggle his hands and then his arms underneath the bottom of the swaddle and then shimmy it up to his shoulders so that his hands are free! No matter how tightly I swaddle him, he’s figured out how to get out of it. As much as I wanted to love this product, it didn’t work for us. I’m hoping the sleep sack will work better for us.
Jessica G.
i dont know what all the fuss was about. i bought both the sleep sack and the swaddle. The swaddle doesnt keep my baby from wiggling out of it or keep her asleep. i tried the sleep sack and she still sleeps the same as before.
Shu Wen J.
It was cute and exactly what I needed for my baby girl
Ashley T.
My 2 month old went from waking every 3 hours to sleeping 6-8 hour stretches! Sadly he’s already breaking out of it I wish I’d ordered the Zen One
Shelley L.
These look so cute and help our little one sleep much better!
Nicole D.
The zen sack is great. The bonus is that there’s a zipper at the bottom for easy diaper changes. I was disappointed with the swaddle as it does not have a easy access bottom zipper, the weighted part folds up onto baby’s chest then you swaddle the arms over it to keep it in place. However, our baby managed to kick her way out of it so it was useless. Stopped using it after a week of trial and frustration and even less sleep for both her and us.
Leslie P.
Didn’t have a chance to use this on my first born I found this company when he was too big for even the small sack but I ordered the small sack and the swaddle for my second that’s due in May and can’t wait to use them!!
kelly b.
I’d post a photo but we keep our bean off of the internet. :) Love this swaddle. Definitely doesn’t make her fall asleep faster but keeps her asleep longer and is easy to put on in comparison to others. Washes well and Velcro is very strong!
Nicole A.
Amazing product! Helped my little girl sleep much better.
Natalia L.
So the first 4 nights it worked so great I was AMAZED and ready to order more but she went right back to her old sleeping habits after the 4th night so wasn’t as pleased as I thought I would be. Material is great tho. Just seems like a very nice swaddle that’s a bit overpriced.
Shannelle B.
The swaddle is helpful but the sack doesn’t help or improve sleep or staying asleep at all. Wouldn’t purchase again.
Dana M.
Love the material and how soft it is. My son isn’t sleeping all night but it’s improved sleeping by about an extra 2 hours. I’ve already recommended it to some other mom friends!
Sharon A.
He sleeps best in the swaddle sack right now due to being a very active sleeper. But I have used the sack and he has had good sleep just the occasional hands and arm flailing here and there. I am happy with both purchases. It has definitely helped both of us get sleep :)
ELIZABETH O.
I think my daughter was really in the midst of a sleep regression when I bought the swaddle and sack. I was excited to see if either product would increase her sleep. There seemed to be zero difference in sleeping lengths. The quality is great. I love how the swaddle swaddled her up and the weight of it, the sleep sack has really easy to use snaps and a smooth zipper. My daughter recently decided she is a tummy sleeper so I’m going to transition her into a sleep sack that is not weighted so she can flip back and forth. Overall, I can’t give five stars since I was really banking on longer sleep stretches (as advertised), but good quality product and I’m looking forward to trying it with future babies!
Paula R.
My grand baby loves her sleep sack!! We started her in the swaddle and continue to move up sizes as she grows. I just bought the swaddle/sack combo for my niece who’s baby is due in December. Cheers to babies who sleep well.
Emily G.
I really like the swaddle but the Velcro wore out after two months of using it.
Catherine H.
The swaddle itself is super cute and soft. I swear this is the only thing that’s getting us through the hell that is the 4 month sleep regression.
Eric P.
My sweet girl now sleeps about an hour and a half longer while swaddled!!
Renee O.
Ordered the swaddle and sack 2 pack. So far I have just used the swaddle. My then 2 week old would fight being in all other swaddles but I gave this one a try as she was only sleeping in hour increments tops. Took about 3 nights for her to get used to, each night sleeping a little more. Now she sleeps 3 or 4 hour increments at night with this swaddle at just under a month old. It totally saved my sanity! I also notice that it takes much less time for me to shush her back to sleep if she should ever wake herself up while in this swaddle. Definitely recommend!
Erin F.
The swaddle and sleep sack are adorable and the fabric is so soft and comfortable. The weights didnt make a difference for us unfortunately.
Dina J.
I broke out the zen swaddle I had purchased prior to my grandson’s birth. He is 7 weeks old and wouldn’t sleep in his own bed and mostly only slept while being held. He stopped crying with in 30 seconds of being placed in the zen swaddle and slept without any problem in his crib for several hours. My daughter-in-law is now a true believer!
Ella B.
My baby slept for 5 hours straight the first time we used it
Kayla T.
We went from restless and sleepless nights to sleeping 7-8hours at a time at night. The first night using our Zen Swaddle our newborn slept for 7 hours straight!
Kaitlin H.
I put this on my baby every night. Unfortunately, it doesn’t help my baby with sleep but it is super easy to use!
James B.
I purchased the swaddle and sleep sack pair because my babe was very close to transitioning. The swaddle was a two steps back one step forward kind of thin but after about four nights, he started consistently having only three wake ups versus the five we had before (9pm-7am) He was always really startled by the Velcro when we needed to change diapers throughout the night tho.
Now he sleeps in the sack. The first two nights he woke twice and the third night he woke once and has been keeping that schedule for over a week now. Nothing else has changed in our sleep/bedtime routine besides these products so I am VERY pleased with the sack.
Ryane B.
Wonderful product! We got this at 2.5 months and the little one went from sleeping for about 2-3 hours spurts to 4-7 hours! Genius product!
Shannon K.
Love this product!!! My baby girl sleeps like a champ!
Christian D.
My daughter can raise up the swaddle and get out of it. She does go to sleep easier but doesn’t really matter if she gets out of it. No matter how tight.
Kathy R.
Easy to use website. Ordered puffin swaddle and sleep sack for my son and daughter-in-law’s Baby Shower.
Erica R.
Our little one now sleeps through the night!
Lindsay K.
My girl was a pretty good sleeper but restless all night, now she hardly makes a peep! We love our swaddle sack and have recommended it to other mamas!
Suzi M.
The material is very soft. However, my son didn't sleep any better (or worse) with the swaddle. I liked the idea of the weighted swaddle, but because it lays on top of him separately (versus being attached to the arm swaddle), he frequently kicked it off. Also, he was able to kick his feet out of feet pouch. Like I said, the material is very soft, but it didn't change his sleeping pattern.
thea r.
I like it! My baby was 5 weeks when I ordered my nested bean in pure desperation! The first five weeks of life my baby cried from 8 pm to 3 am before finally falling asleep! I received my nested bean and saw an immediate change! She fell asleep within 30 minutes. My now 9 week baby still gets swaddled in it. I wrap her in it every night.
Marcella F.
Amazing! Just the perfect swaddle for our little guy. Took maybe one night for him to only wake once at 4 weeks. Sleeping soundly since!
Whitney T.
This did not work for us.
Julie A.
I ordered both the swaddle and the sack. So neither have proved successful. The swaddle has to be done just right in order for baby's arms not to be able to come free. But regardless of the arms I don't feel that the weighted feature is proving soothing for baby. I tried the sack for the first time the other night and it didn't work at all. My baby is too young (3 months) and still needs swaddles as her startle reflexes are very active. Every baby is different so this might work for some but not my baby, so far.
Caitlin G.
The Velcro is barely sticking anymore after only a couple weeks of use.
Sierra K.
So far I've only used the zen swaddle, but it has worked wonders! I got the swaddle when my baby was about a month old and waking up 3 to 4 times a night making this mommy super tired, especially when I have to wake up with a two year old toddler early in the mornings. After the first night, I had an amazing 6 hours of sleep before he woke up for a feeding. I couldn't believe it! He is now almost 3 months old and I'm so happy that I get a little more sleep now to be a more lively mom for my two boys. I wish I had this with my first baby!
Teresa W.
We love the Zen Sack! Our little one now sleeps with his arms stretched out. The Zen Sack allows him to do just that and still be comforted by the design. He sleeps more peaceful with the Sack
Malynn G.
This has helped my baby calm down if upset, and stay asleep. She sleeps great in it! She had to go to the hospital because she does eat correctly and isn't gaining enough weight. I took the swaddle and it worked great to get her to fall asleep and stay asleep between frequent feedings. I'm excited to see how long she sleeps when we don't have to wake her up for feedings.
Chelsey H.
I haven't seen any change in my daughter's sleep habits with this on. It still takes a couple attempts to get her down for the night. And she still wants up 1-2 times during the night. She is only 2 months, so I didn't set my hopes too high for get to sleep through the night yet. I like the material super soft and lightweight.
Stephanie M.
I do not see what all the big whoop is about over this thing. All it really is, is just a very good swaddle for your baby. I give it that. But my baby doesn’t like to be swaddled or trapped so I can’t even use it much. And it doesn’t put your baby to sleep. It’s not magical like in the adds so save your money.
Ginger M.
Love the built in swaddle feature as my grandson can escape any swaddle. He could not escape this one. He did work his feet free from the bottom portion which is fine. I am so thankful I found these.
TAIHRA W.
My LO would sleep between 3-4 hours, after one day of the zen swaddle, she started sleeping 5-6 hours at night. We use the sleep sack for naps during the day and also saw longer naps during the day. Definitely recommend Nested Bean.
Melanie A.
I love the sak more than the swaddle only because my baby doesn’t like to be swaddled. The sak works perfectly and he will sleep 8 hours at night, wake up for feeding and back to sleep for 2 to 3. I highly recommend this product.
Courtney L.
I like the swaddle however if your baby kicks a lot at night the weighted part gets pulled down. If there was a way to have that part velcroed to the wings I think it would help a lot
Laura S.
This is a lovely, feels good, easy to use swaddle. We booted all of our other swaddles after acquiring this one thanks to its ease of use. We haven’t experienced the magical changes in sleep so I think it’s quite likely not everyone does. But if you’re willing to spend the money on a super straightforward and reliable swaddle this is a great bet.
Carolyn B.
Have purchased these for 2 of my grandchildren, one has used and enjoyed, the other... we are waiting for her arrival in the fall.
Renee K.
I love these so much, I’ve bought a swaddle and sleep sack for my best friends baby! My girl loves them!
Danielle H.
Our little guy has always been a restless sleeper. We got the nested bean swaddle and within a day was sleeping 3-5 hours at a time (was only 4 weeks old). Now he's 8 weeks and sleeps up to 7 hours at a time! Mom and dad appreciate the sleep
Jennifer R.
This is the best product ever!! My son hated being swaddled after he was 2 months old. But when he’s in his Nested Bean he puts himself right to sleep. It is a miracle. He’s so happy and he sleeps so well.
Sarah H.
As a sleep specialist I recommend this to parents all the time!
Alicia R.
The swaddler is very soft and appears to be cozy. The Velcro keeps his arms secure by his side. He is 3 months old and too long to fit his feet where they’re supposed to go so he kicks the weighted part off, which defeats the purpose of this sleep sack.
Heather K.
The swaddle didnt really work for us long because of my baby girls lenght. However the sack is working great wish i would of ordered two of those instead! I also ordered the pattern with the toucans on it but recieved white. No biggie just would of liked the pattern id chose.
Elizabeth M.
Doesnt work miracles but did help with naps I think
Angel V.
I’m only using the swaddle right now for my baby but still she keeps on waking up and doesn’t like to be swaddled her arms.
Rachel R.
This is the first and only swaddle our little lady will use. It definitely helped to stretch out her naps and sleeping at night. Woohoo
Brittany H.
My daughter is 8 weeks old and we started using the nested bean about a month ago. She sleeps for a 5-6 hour stretch, wakes up to eat and goes back to sleep for a 3-4 hour stretch! I ordered 2 more so that we never have a night without one!
Renee M.
We are using the swaddle with her arms out and the sleep sack! We absolutely love our nested bean items and I recommend them to every new mom I know!
Kate H.
Nested Bean quickly puts my newborn to relax when fussy. Sleeps through the night when it’s on! Love the swaddle and will use the gown later when he doesn’t want to be swaddled anymore
Cindy K.
We only use the Nest Bean swaddle at night so our daughter knows it’s bedtime. When we started using it, at 3 weeks old, it she started sleeping longer through the night. The increments would be 4-5 hours, rather than 2.5-3. Not every night does she sleep that long in the swaddle, but most nights she does.
Kelly L.
The swaddle didn’t fit our 2 month old. However we enjoy the sleep sack and the way it is made. I wouldn’t order the swaddle again and am disappointed I bought the set together.
Abigail M.
I honestly noticed no difference. My daughter didn't take well to this the whole week we tried it on her. We even attempted it about 2 weeks later and she still wasn't taking to it.
Edwin F.
The baby sleeps so much longer it really is a great help
Darla H.
The material and workmanship was top notch. The first night my baby slept four hours straight, otherwise it was 1 to 2 hour increments.
janice c.
I like how easy it is to swaddle. My little one sleeps well with it!
Karyn K.
Bought this for my daughter to help my grandson sleep better!! The first time he slept for 7 hours straight. It certainly has made the difference.
Autum S.
I love the idea of this product however swallowed my son in it and the first night woke up to him squirming around and he had raised his arms over his head completely covering his face with the swaddled material. Huge risk in my opinion!! There’s no way I will use this again. I’m terrified it will suffocate him.
Jennifer V.
Didn’t work for my little. I’ve tried both swaddle and zen sack.
Tonya S.
I absolutely LOVE this swaddle! I need to order a few more! It truly helps my baby sleep better
Sarah K.
Event at 5+ months our daughter still shows signs that she's still holding on to her moro reflex, causing her to startle awake. I had hopes that the swaddle would help her while also teaching her to self sooth better. I love how soft the material is, but as other reviews stated, it's FAR too stretchy for older children that can fight the swaddle. It was no challenge for our daughter to escape the swaddle. Furthermore, the more she wiggled the more she dislodged the Zen bag part of the sack. I wish there was a better way to secure the weighted part of the swaddle. I'd probably recommend the swaddle but only for 2mo and under.
That said we are loving the sleeveless sleep sack. Again the material is very comfortable and roomy, definitely the largest amount of leg room provided by any of the sleep sacks we've tried. I like how the sack zips and the zippers seem to be of good quality and there's a nice flap of material to cover the zipper so it won't bother your sleeping little one. The shoulder snaps are great too, I love that there's two sizes to adjust the straps and they're nice and secure but not so much so that they're hard to unsnap.
As a suggestion to the developer, our daughter loves being snuggled and obviously the swaddles don't work anymore. We've found leaving our hands on her shoulders/arms to provide weight/reassurance as she's drifting off really helps. Perhaps a suit with some weight in the arms might be soothing to little ones that still startle at night, but are too strong (and rolling) for swaddles.
tawana b.
Great product. Just didn't work for my little one...he is very active and was able to get out of the swaddle each time he was placed in it. And the sac didn't do anything for him.
Kristen H.
I used the swaddle for two weeks straight and did not notice a difference. I hate that you have to unswaddle your baby for diaper change, it needs a zipper.
Elizabeth L.
Tried for a week and she didn't respond the way it's advertised. Went back to her hall sack and she does much better.
