Frequently asked questions
-
What is The Cuddle Effect™?
Medical experts agree: it’s not just the swaddling, the rocking, the lullabies that soothe your baby to sleep. It’s your touch. And it’s vital to your baby’s well-being. Recent scientific research on Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) shows that babies experience the Cuddle Effect when they feel gentle pressure in the places you naturally hold them. That means longer, sweeter sleep—until they’re back in your arms.
-
Which size is best for my baby?
For the product you are considering check its size chart. Your baby should not be below the minimum weight and should have at least 2-3 inches to grow before growing past the maximum height.
-
How can the Zen One™ be used in different ways?
The Zen One adapts to your baby’s unique sleep style at every stage. For newborns, a secure band holds arms down to prevent the startle reflex. For active sleepers, breathable mesh sleeves keep arms in but visible, so babies can self-soothe during sleep.
-
When should I transition my baby out of a swaddle?
Once your baby starts showing signs of rolling over, it's time to begin the transition from a swaddle to a sleep sack. The Zen One transforms into a sleep sack when you remove the zip-off mesh sleeves!
-
How much weight is in each product?
Physiotherapy standards were used to determine the appropriate weight in the Zen Sleepwear. These weight requirements ensure that the weight to body-weight ratio is maintained well below the recommended Physiotherapy standard of 1:10. Depending on the size of the product, the weighted parts range from 1 to 5 ounces.
Shannon L.
Love this sleep sack! It's super-soft and my son loves it!!
Angela W.
This is so much easier than having to swaddle with a blanket every night! My newborn loves it since she can still kick her legs around but is snug at her arms to avoid waking herself up.
Amber B.
We're starting to transition out of the swaddle and this is the perfect product for that.
April D.
We love our sleep sack! Our baby girl sleeps so much better now! I highly recommend it for any moms needing some sleep.
Heidi D.
My daughter would kick her legs and arms would be flying- just a horrible sleeper. We gave this a shot and WOW- the minute you put it on she is relaxed and sleeps all night. We now have 4 and love them!!!! If you haven’t bought one- NOW IS THE TIME!
Lisa L.
My daughter likes to have her hands by her head, so I tried this out because of the great reviews saying it gave their babies longer stretches of sleep. We have not noticed a difference in the 3 weeks we've used it. She still wakes up every 3 hours or so. She seems to like it just fine, but I'm not sure I'd buy this again.
Katy T.
This is my third child, but first one that did not like having his arms swaddled in. Hus startle reflex would wake him up constantly. After only a few days, we are consistently getting up 2x at night and he's going right back to sleep!
Mikayla D.
Our little one LOVES this! She loved to be swaddled arms down early on, but as she grew we knew we wanted to start transitioning her. This swaddle worked PERFECT!! Wish I would have purchased sooner!! It calmed her down right away! I recommend it to all my mom friends!!
Kyle S.
Had a manufacturing defect on our first, but customer service was incredible and got us a new one. Baby sleeps so much better in sleep sack.
Becky B.
Love it. Our son is 11 weeks and has been sleeping 7-8 hours without waking up!
Ann A.
The Zen One has been a game-changer for us… He was starting to wiggle out of his regular swaddles and seemed frustrated with his arms down. He’s a good sleeper anyway, but this has helped us to add a couple of extra hours at night and longer naps! Totally worth the cost.
Tara W.
My LO seems to like it as much as other swaddles. I think it is very good quality (fabric, stitching). I'm not sure the weighted center and sides really does anything but who knows. Also, as a side note, it runs VERY snug. My LO is in the 20th percentile and 3.5 months and the 3 to 6 month old swaddle is TIGHT on her. I think we might get one more month out of it, so definitely made for little babies under 13 pounds.
Keely H.
My favorite swaddle yet. The weighted aspect has been especially useful. My little one usually needs a hand on him to fall asleep and transitioning him from arms to bassinet is near impossible without waking him up. No more. He doesn't even budge now when I lie him down. And when he escapes from the inner band within the swaddle, his arms go right up into the mesh pockets so he can suck his hand and soothe himself back to sleep. A+, five stars, can't wait to buy more.
Jennifer T.
I bought another NestedBean without the arm pockets back in 2018 with my first daughter, but because she was a tummy sleeper from early on we didn't use utmuch. When we tried it again just recently, I wasn't sure if I liked it or not, but then I saw this one with the arm pockets- and since we leave one of them at daycare I thought I would try it again with the arm mesh pockets. I am 100% in love with it. For my second born, she NEEDS this sack to stay down for nighttime because she had a very strong startle reflex. We put her in this at bedtime (sometimes still awake,) lay her down, and in a bit she is asleep!
Alexis J.
It's a nice swaddle. The elastic in the arms is coming out and it's less than a month old. Customer service isn't great. I've tried contacting them and haven't heard back.
Allison D.
We love the Zen One swaddle! My baby can sleep 11 hours in it, and he’s only 2 months old! It’s not every single night, but pretty close! Definitely recommend
Julia G.
I like the versatility of the Zen One but my 2 month old didn’t take to it. We were looking for a nap time outfit to help us establish a nap routine. 80% of the time he’s able to get out of the inner swaddle no matter how snug we make it. I was excited for him to be able to transition with the mesh sleeves but he doesn’t seem to care for them. He still isn’t napping for more than 45min using the inner swaddle or the mesh sleeves. Unfortunately the Zen One wasn’t successful for us.
Janel H.
I wasn’t sure if this product would actually work but I became desperate to get my 2 month old to sleep. I finally gave in and bought the ZenOne classic and WOW, he slept through the night the first time wearing it. It’s a miracle! We just bought a second one and he wears it every night, it REALLY works !
Shannon F.
My baby is 3months old and sleeps well with this sleep sac! He kicks a lot though so it did rip where he kicks but other than that he loves it!
Ashlyn H.
I don’t think it was that amazing. It did help with the startle reflex. But any swaddle can do that. I’m giving 3 stars because it was just okay. It didn’t help my little one tremendously.
Vanessa G.
love it! my baby sleeps all night
Anna C.
This suit is great! Our little one would break out of every swaddle that we tried. She wanted to have her arms up! She really enjoys sleeping in this suit and the dual zipper direction is very convenient for nighttime changes. Very happy with this purchase!
Tathyane V.
Calms my little guy instantly!
Sara C.
Great for my baby who prefers arms out. Also nice transition to sleep sack. I wish the zipper didn’t ride up/bunch so much near the mouth. Makes night time feedings more difficult.
Rachelle B.
My baby loves this! He falls asleep immediately every time I put it on him and I’m able to sleep better at night and do things during the day.
Kena R.
I ordered the 3 to 6 month size which was a little snug on my 3 month old if his arms down. Works really well If your baby likes the arms up feature. Didn't really experience longer sleep stretches though
Katie L.
This has been the best investment for us and our sleep! It made for a super easy transition from a swaddle to a sleep sack. I love the arms up feature and how easy it is to zip off the arms. And, the inner Velcro band helps my son to still feel secure and calms his startle reflex. We loved this one so much we bought another!
Vicki B.
My daughter in law said my granddaughter is sleeping for longer periods of time, and if she does wake up, she quickly goes back to sleep. She loves it!
Mercedes T.
As any parent of a newborn, I was on the lookout for anything that would give me and my fiancé even a few extra minutes of sleep. It took a week for my babe to get used to this sleep sack. I love how she can have her arms up, out, or swaddled down. She is 7 weeks old and has started sleeping 6hr stretches at night with this swaddle! Her naps are about 2hrs long. I highly recommend this swaddle
Olivia W.
She loves it!
Christine G.
This swaddle literally has it all.. you can swaddle arms down or up or arms out for when they start to roll over etc.. you can zip up from the bottom for quick and easy diaper changes.. it’s so much easier and quicker than any other swaddle I’ve tried.. I love that it’s weighted and it has mesh where the hands are :) so glad I bought it

Stephanie S.
We love nested bean products! We started with the swaddle and just started using the Zen One at 3 months. Our sweet little girl sleeps so well with her nested bean products compared to others.
Jennifer M.
I liked it but after 2 weeks the 3-6 month size no longer fit my 2 month old that is in the 50th percentile for height and weight.
Mette H.
My baby was breaking out of his swaddle blankets, but couldn't sleep with his arms moving practically on their own, so I knew I needed something to contain them. He loves to self-soothe, so having his hands in the mesh arm pockets is perfect. It contains his flailing arms enough that he's not waking himself, but also allows him to suck on his hands.
Amiee S.
The nested bean zen one is the best sleep sack we’ve tried. We’ve tried many different sleep sacks. The fabric is absolutely the softest of any competitor, it has the perfect amount of snug stretch to make the baby comfortable, and the weighted beans really is a game changer. She took to the zen one immediately, was calm almost immediately and now that she’s 3 months, 2 weeks into her nested bean, she has slept through the entire night! I only wish that there was one size bigger, my baby is long and bigger for her age, she needs a little more leg and hip room, but not ready to move to the sleeveless one yet. She still loves her arms close inside the mesh cubbies. This sleep sack is the best, I would highly recommend it, worth every penny!
Dannae L.
Within two nights, my 5 week old was sleeping much longer and much deeper! It gave us as new parents much-needed rest, and her too! Now she wakes up smiling and happy!
Elizabeth K.
Love nested bean products from using with my last baby. Wanted to try at an earlier age for our 3 week old who hated his arms down but couldn’t have them out. I love the weighted chest but our baby didn’t seem to love his arms being up and constricted like that. The swaddle does seem to run a little small. We have taken the arms off (nice feature) and he is sleeping well with his arms out.
Megan W.
Soft fabric and works well to get my little one to sleep more comfortably
Shannon F.
Our baby loves this swaddle! His sleep is so much better since we started using it! The versatility is the best part.. Arms up for daytime naps, arms down to signal long night time sleep (he sleeps 10 hours through the night since using this swaddle!) and we will soon unzip the “sleeves” to allow him to have arms out while still using the weighted chest to comfort him. AMAZING product, I recommend to everybody!
Angela W.
This has been great for our 2 month old who isn’t yet ready to fully transition out of the swaddle yet likes to move her arms. The weighted best keeps her comforted without having to always swaddle her arms. A great transition sack!
Amy H.
I’ll start by saying that we loved the nested bean sacks for our son! So we thought we’d love the zen one for our premie daughter that needs to be swaddled to sleep well at night. We were much less and impressed and actually only used it one time for a 4 hour stretch. It was so small! She had just barely hit 8lbs so we went with the 0-3 and my was it a tight fit. We switched it out for the nested swaddle because we love that and so does our daughter. She just grunted the entire time she was wearing the zen one.. we were so disappointed that we spent over $40 on something she used once for a few hours. We should have gone with just the regular sleep sack. Lesson learned!!
Danielle S.
My baby loves being able to keep her arms up and now sleeps like an angel!
Rachelle D.
My babies are 2 months old and were born premature so they are on the smaller side but the 0-3 month size was way too tight with absolutely no room to grow. I exchanged for the 3-6 month size. I haven’t noticed a difference in sleep patterns yet but will continue to use. I was most disappointed that you don’t offer free return shipping especially for exchanges. When standing behind a product, this is very important! It cost me $15 to return the ones that didn’t fit when it likely would have cost your company significantly less, so even if you had to deduct a small fee from the refund in order to provide a return label, that would be better customer service. I sincerely hope that you improve this process!
Brittaney H.
This works so well for my baby who hated to be swaddled!
Tracy L.
It’s a good concept and I’m sure it works for some. My son is 8 weeks and already close to growing out of the 3-6 month size. The fabric is also a little thick and bulky.
Laura L.
My baby girls loves this product. Sge hates having her arms inside tucked down. Once we were able to get her arms in the mesh pieces she slept better. She even looks down at the product when it is time for a nap, ready to get in. Sometimes she even whines for it!
Jessica L.
I'm not sure how we got through the entire infant stage with our first baby, without a Nested Bean! This thing is magical. Our second child (infant) slept through the night from the first time we put her in it. We bought the next size up when she grew out of her first one, and now we are already worried about when she grows out of this one because it's the biggest size they sell! GREAT PRODUCT!!
Ashley S.
My little boy sleeps so well. thank you
Deborah G.
Our baby girl went from waking every few minutes to half an hour, to sleeping from 745/8 pm to 730/8 am almost every night. It’s been a complete game changer for our family, thankfully!!
Cynthia T.
I wanted to love this. The product itself is good quality but my LO just didn’t care for it. I gave it over a week and I didn’t see any better sleep. If anything, same or slightly worse. Unfortunately bought two and returning seems to be a hassle.
Caitlin A.
This product is a game changer! 10 out of 10 would HIGHLY recommend. Before we started using the nested bean our daughter wouldn't sleep more than 2 to 3 hours at a time. However since we got this she consistency sleeps 6ish hours straight. It is so amazing to get a good nights sleep again next to my little nested bean ❤ worth every dollar spent.
Caitlin B.
I love these swaddles as my kiddo has intense reflexes.
Megan S.
The perfect outfit for my snuggle bunny!
Heather M.
100% worth the $$ our baby was not sleeping and the very 1st night we put him in his sack he slept 5 hours! It was amazing and I have been singing nested beans praises to anyone who will listen.
Erika M.
Had the swaddle for about a month now. It seems to help some but my baby still wakes up often at night to feed. I do like to place him in the swaddle as it creates a nice sleep routine and he looks adorable in it.
Rylie D.
My baby started sleeping longer stretches once we switched to the Zen One. She went from waking up every 2-3 hours, to sleeping 6-8 hours at night!
Brittany J.
It’s great we just wish it didn’t go to far up under his neck
Olivia A.
Absolutely love the Zen sack! We were getting concerned as we approached the time to retire the swaddle that our little one wouldn’t sleep but he loves this! We started him a little early so he could transition with the mesh arms, but he easily soothed himself each night. He sleeps anywhere from 6-8 hours between waking up to eat and we 100% credit this sleep sack!
Kathleen K.
I am a foster mom to infants.
Often times our kids come with a history of drug exposure and they are prone to having a low startle point.
The Zen One comforts them better than any other type of swaddle I have tried.
The babies relax as soon as I zip them up!
Megan W.
I love the nested bean swaddle and wish I had discovered is sooner. My little one didn’t like her arms held down like is done with traditional swaddles. She sleeps soundly with her arms slightly up. The gentle weight on her chest does wonders for helping to soothe her between sleep cycles.
Emily B.
Bought this in addition to the smaller one and it’s been great to use both and know this option will last us a few more months once our daughter grows out of the 0-3 month one. Both provide her great comfort while sleeping on her own at night!
Emily B.
We love this sleep sack! Our baby has been sleeping 6-7 hours straight in it and waking very calmly after the long stretches too. I’ve that we can unzip the arms now that’s she’s about to roll over. Thank you!!
Kelci R.
This sleep sack has been a life saver for us at bed time, she still wakes to eat as she is only 5 weeks but she will go right back to sleep after! So glad we purchased this!
Alicia K.
These have been a game changer for us! However, I purchased the next size up, as my little one has grown out of the newborn size, and the next size up is too big for her. I wish there were a size in the middle.
Courtney S.
I want to love this product so much. The concept is great, and I love the versatility. However, the construction and quality leave something to be desired. After just two washes the lavender one I bought has a hole along the inner belt and the mesh arm also has a hole in it. The blue one has strings sticking out all over the place. I’m most disappointed in the customer service however, as I have sent them multiple messages regarding the dysfunctional product and have heard no response.
Mary C.
I like the swaddle, my only suggestion is the mesh material for the hands is so fragile and thin and with baby’s sharp nails it snags easily and looks as though it’s on the verge of tearing
reanna p.
I was SO excited to get this in the mail. The shipping was incredibly fast! Ordered on Monday and got here Wednesday, faster than any Amazon package I’ve got since you know what.
It just doesn’t seem to work as well for my 6 week old baby as I hoped, but will keep using it! I’m glad I got the small. He fits in it already and has room to grow (currently weighs 13 lbs) the newborn size would’ve lasted us a couple weeks…
Love the material. But the sleeves are weird. My baby was able to get his hands up a couple times and I didn’t notice until it was tome to wake up. But then other times he’s woken up super mad and his arms are awkwardly stuck, like he was trying to get them up but too tight. I took them off and swaddle him with arms down, but he has gotten his arms out a couple times with no problems.
Courtney B.
My son was struggling to sleep more than 2-4hrs as a time before I purchased this swaddle.
My son has now been sleeping 6-7hrs hours at a time since wearing this swaddle. Absolutely LOVE this item!
Angie H.
Worked after the first night and by the 5th night was sleeping all night.
Allison N.
My LO loves it!
Jessica W.
I love it but I think it runs very small. We have a preemie girl who’s 4 mo and this JUST FIT. we had to exchange for a regular sack. They’re very cute though.
Aurora M.
Our little one loves having his arms up and hates having them swaddled by his sides or on his chest. I thought this would be the perfect swaddle for him. He tolerated the mesh arms once but after that it seemed like they hurt his wrists because he cried until I took the sleeves off. The weight is amazingly helpful at helping him self soothe and he likes the compression from the wrap portion. My one major complaint was that the zipper rides up and gets bunched up under his neck. I wish they had made this more of a wide collar or v neck opening.
Amanda W.
Our daughter loves her Zen One! She’s been sleeping so well since we got it for her. I wish we would have ordered one sooner.
Amber D.
Absolutely love our new sleep sack! Our sweet boy has slept 11+ hours straight since we began using it!
Jessy D.
Love the soft feel of the fabric for the baby. Easy to put on. Unfortunately, it seemed to tight for my 2 month old and she seemed uncomfortable. I did buy a second one for my nephew and he sleeps much better.
Sole' K.
Great customer service and quick response to defective item.
Ida R.
Sleeps through the night
Riley F.
I am so impressed! I was worried that it wouldn't be worth the money but she sleeps so well in it. My newborn likes to pivot around in her bassinet and this helps keep her in the middle instead of wiggling to the side. Our house is warmer during the summer so I am happy that it's not too thick while still providing comfort and weight.
It also washes very well, I don't air dry it, just throw it with delicates and it has held up no problem!
Am buying more!!!
Cassie W.
We ordered the nested bean sleep sack and after the first use the arms tore. I contacted customer service and they were so accommodating. Within days I had a new sleep sack and haven’t had any issues with the replacement. Customer service handled the problem quickly and kindly. I highly recommend the product and the company!
My 3 month old loves the weighted sleep sack too. I noticed an improvement her sleep after the first use.
Scott R.
We love our Nested Bean! My 14 week old has been in the Nested Bean swaddles since 4 weeks and they’ve been amazing for her. She loves being able to have her arms up by her head, and now that she’s older she can bring her hands to her mouth to suck on them. She won’t take a pacifier, so this has been a lifesaver for us in helping her to soothe herself at bedtime. We’ll use our Nested Beans as long as we can!
Catherine S.
This fit my baby for two weeks and was great in that time… but he’s 7.5 weeks old now and the 3-6month size is getting too small :(
Naesha R.
Runs a bit small, I ordered 3-6 my baby is nearly 2 months and it’s a bit snug. But great product.
Liz
Our 2 month old is a swaddle escape artist and so many other swaddles like this haven't worked so I was skeptical of this one at first. But, this one actually works really well! I highly recommend it, it's worth the price!
Morgan V.
This works great for allowing my little one to lay with his arms up while suppressing his startle reflex. However I received this item and washed it as the directions stated, and I noticed it had a hole in the seem a few days later. I’ve attempted to reach out via the return/exchange form and my calling the costumer service line and left a message, with yet to hear back from either. I like the product but I would like it to last longer than a week.
Mary D.
Bought this for my granddaughter. My daughter said it really helped the baby to sleep much longer. She also liked the mesh on the hands so the baby can still have access to them. Would definitely recommend this product.
Amy H.
I’ve previously purchased a Zen One in the doodles style for my baby and it worked wonderfully. Hence, I decided to purchase an extra but this one doesn’t work at all. My baby will cry in it and it took him longer time to fall asleep in this recent purchase. Upon comparison between this new lavender zen one and the previously purchased doodles zen one, I realized they’re made in factory in different countries. One material is more elastic than the other, and the amount of bean is different too. I wish there’s quality control over the product.
Jaime K.
We purchased this to wean from the snoo (arms in) to the crib during naps before full nights. It’s doing just the trick…a little more freedom from the snoo sack but not too much with arms fully out. We also love the weight in the perfect spots.
Michelle C.
Twelve been using the nested bean for a little over a week and it has been okay but not a wild change from the sleep our baby was getting before. We have found that the swaddle part can be dangerous if you have a baby that tries to wiggle out of it... we've unzipped him to find the velcro up near his neck a few times. We've started putting him down with his hands in the mesh pockets and that is helping. As he keeps using it you can see him get more and more comfortable with it so maybe a full nights rest is on the horizon!
LYNSEY L.
Wow! I can’t say enough good about this! From the first night — noticed a major difference. He calms down so much more quickly and falls asleep and stays asleep! Love love love this. We will be buying again.
Kareema A.
It actually started working on the 3rd night i was so shocked! I jumped up out of my sleep because i was scared she hadn’t woke up in a long time. I was definitely rested that night. Recommend to anyone. I wish i would have ordered it before i gave birth so i would have it when i got home from the hospital.
danielle c.
Literally obsessed ! My little guy is 2 months old and sleeps from 8-6 every night now ! Even his naps which were the hardest to do he now naps for 2 hours at a time .. today 3&1/2 !
Leah H.
This product will be good once we transition to a sleep sack only but unfortunately the swaddle straps on the inside aren’t secure enough for my son and he hates being strapped into it unlike other swaddles we use
Hannah T.
My daughter is SO STRONG that her startle reflex would wake her up every time! These zen swaddles have so many options we just played around with it till we found the perfect fit! (Arms up) 7 weeks old and already sleeping like a champ!
KEHINDE B.
Love the quality and baby sleeps well in it
Shannon M.
We love the weighted aspect of this swaddle and it is really well made! However, the mesh where you place the arms is so small! Our baby is still well within the weight range for this swaddle yet there is not enough room for his arms in the arm pockets. His little wrists get bent and it is very uncomfortable for him. I wish they would make the arm pockets bigger.
Morgan N.
Here my baby is sleeping in her own bed for the first time with the Zen One swaddle! It’s a miracle!
Erin R.
My Daughter was waking up 3-4 times a night. First night using the sleep sack she slept 9 hours straight! I’m not a mom who buys unnecessary things in fear of wasting money. Especially, because I’m a mom of 4! But I was amazed by how well this worked! She was sleeping through the night on first use and her fussiness during the day ended:). My poor baby was just tired and she cried all day:(. I believe her startle reflex was waking her. But this sleep sack is like a hug :). It truly has changed my babies life for the better she is a happy baby. It’s as if a light switch was turned on and she now can function through out the day:). She even feeds better because she isn’t tired and fussy:). Therefore, it even has helped her grow! I’m telling you it’s definitely worth a shot:)! Because your sleep and your babies sleep makes everyone happier!
Carissa O.
My baby was waking up multiple times a night before we tried this. She is almost 3 months old now, and she is getting better at sleeping through the night with the sleep sack. It took a few days, but she now only wakes up one time instead of multiple times throughout the night. Definitely worth the money!
Brenda G.
We love our sleep sack so much. Its really helped our baby sleep longer stretches!
Shannon L.
Love this sleep sack! It's super-soft and my son loves it!!
Angela W.
This is so much easier than having to swaddle with a blanket every night! My newborn loves it since she can still kick her legs around but is snug at her arms to avoid waking herself up.
Amber B.
We're starting to transition out of the swaddle and this is the perfect product for that.
April D.
We love our sleep sack! Our baby girl sleeps so much better now! I highly recommend it for any moms needing some sleep.
Heidi D.
My daughter would kick her legs and arms would be flying- just a horrible sleeper. We gave this a shot and WOW- the minute you put it on she is relaxed and sleeps all night. We now have 4 and love them!!!! If you haven’t bought one- NOW IS THE TIME!
Lisa L.
My daughter likes to have her hands by her head, so I tried this out because of the great reviews saying it gave their babies longer stretches of sleep. We have not noticed a difference in the 3 weeks we've used it. She still wakes up every 3 hours or so. She seems to like it just fine, but I'm not sure I'd buy this again.
Katy T.
This is my third child, but first one that did not like having his arms swaddled in. Hus startle reflex would wake him up constantly. After only a few days, we are consistently getting up 2x at night and he's going right back to sleep!
Mikayla D.
Our little one LOVES this! She loved to be swaddled arms down early on, but as she grew we knew we wanted to start transitioning her. This swaddle worked PERFECT!! Wish I would have purchased sooner!! It calmed her down right away! I recommend it to all my mom friends!!
Kyle S.
Had a manufacturing defect on our first, but customer service was incredible and got us a new one. Baby sleeps so much better in sleep sack.
Becky B.
Love it. Our son is 11 weeks and has been sleeping 7-8 hours without waking up!
Ann A.
The Zen One has been a game-changer for us… He was starting to wiggle out of his regular swaddles and seemed frustrated with his arms down. He’s a good sleeper anyway, but this has helped us to add a couple of extra hours at night and longer naps! Totally worth the cost.
Tara W.
My LO seems to like it as much as other swaddles. I think it is very good quality (fabric, stitching). I'm not sure the weighted center and sides really does anything but who knows. Also, as a side note, it runs VERY snug. My LO is in the 20th percentile and 3.5 months and the 3 to 6 month old swaddle is TIGHT on her. I think we might get one more month out of it, so definitely made for little babies under 13 pounds.
Keely H.
My favorite swaddle yet. The weighted aspect has been especially useful. My little one usually needs a hand on him to fall asleep and transitioning him from arms to bassinet is near impossible without waking him up. No more. He doesn't even budge now when I lie him down. And when he escapes from the inner band within the swaddle, his arms go right up into the mesh pockets so he can suck his hand and soothe himself back to sleep. A+, five stars, can't wait to buy more.
Jennifer T.
I bought another NestedBean without the arm pockets back in 2018 with my first daughter, but because she was a tummy sleeper from early on we didn't use utmuch. When we tried it again just recently, I wasn't sure if I liked it or not, but then I saw this one with the arm pockets- and since we leave one of them at daycare I thought I would try it again with the arm mesh pockets. I am 100% in love with it. For my second born, she NEEDS this sack to stay down for nighttime because she had a very strong startle reflex. We put her in this at bedtime (sometimes still awake,) lay her down, and in a bit she is asleep!
Alexis J.
It's a nice swaddle. The elastic in the arms is coming out and it's less than a month old. Customer service isn't great. I've tried contacting them and haven't heard back.
Allison D.
We love the Zen One swaddle! My baby can sleep 11 hours in it, and he’s only 2 months old! It’s not every single night, but pretty close! Definitely recommend
Julia G.
I like the versatility of the Zen One but my 2 month old didn’t take to it. We were looking for a nap time outfit to help us establish a nap routine. 80% of the time he’s able to get out of the inner swaddle no matter how snug we make it. I was excited for him to be able to transition with the mesh sleeves but he doesn’t seem to care for them. He still isn’t napping for more than 45min using the inner swaddle or the mesh sleeves. Unfortunately the Zen One wasn’t successful for us.
Janel H.
I wasn’t sure if this product would actually work but I became desperate to get my 2 month old to sleep. I finally gave in and bought the ZenOne classic and WOW, he slept through the night the first time wearing it. It’s a miracle! We just bought a second one and he wears it every night, it REALLY works !
Shannon F.
My baby is 3months old and sleeps well with this sleep sac! He kicks a lot though so it did rip where he kicks but other than that he loves it!
Ashlyn H.
I don’t think it was that amazing. It did help with the startle reflex. But any swaddle can do that. I’m giving 3 stars because it was just okay. It didn’t help my little one tremendously.
Vanessa G.
love it! my baby sleeps all night
Anna C.
This suit is great! Our little one would break out of every swaddle that we tried. She wanted to have her arms up! She really enjoys sleeping in this suit and the dual zipper direction is very convenient for nighttime changes. Very happy with this purchase!
Tathyane V.
Calms my little guy instantly!
Sara C.
Great for my baby who prefers arms out. Also nice transition to sleep sack. I wish the zipper didn’t ride up/bunch so much near the mouth. Makes night time feedings more difficult.
Rachelle B.
My baby loves this! He falls asleep immediately every time I put it on him and I’m able to sleep better at night and do things during the day.
Kena R.
I ordered the 3 to 6 month size which was a little snug on my 3 month old if his arms down. Works really well If your baby likes the arms up feature. Didn't really experience longer sleep stretches though
Katie L.
This has been the best investment for us and our sleep! It made for a super easy transition from a swaddle to a sleep sack. I love the arms up feature and how easy it is to zip off the arms. And, the inner Velcro band helps my son to still feel secure and calms his startle reflex. We loved this one so much we bought another!
Vicki B.
My daughter in law said my granddaughter is sleeping for longer periods of time, and if she does wake up, she quickly goes back to sleep. She loves it!
Mercedes T.
As any parent of a newborn, I was on the lookout for anything that would give me and my fiancé even a few extra minutes of sleep. It took a week for my babe to get used to this sleep sack. I love how she can have her arms up, out, or swaddled down. She is 7 weeks old and has started sleeping 6hr stretches at night with this swaddle! Her naps are about 2hrs long. I highly recommend this swaddle
Olivia W.
She loves it!
Christine G.
This swaddle literally has it all.. you can swaddle arms down or up or arms out for when they start to roll over etc.. you can zip up from the bottom for quick and easy diaper changes.. it’s so much easier and quicker than any other swaddle I’ve tried.. I love that it’s weighted and it has mesh where the hands are :) so glad I bought it

We love nested bean products! We started with the swaddle and just started using the Zen One at 3 months. Our sweet little girl sleeps so well with her nested bean products compared to others.
Jennifer M.
I liked it but after 2 weeks the 3-6 month size no longer fit my 2 month old that is in the 50th percentile for height and weight.
Mette H.
My baby was breaking out of his swaddle blankets, but couldn't sleep with his arms moving practically on their own, so I knew I needed something to contain them. He loves to self-soothe, so having his hands in the mesh arm pockets is perfect. It contains his flailing arms enough that he's not waking himself, but also allows him to suck on his hands.
Amiee S.
The nested bean zen one is the best sleep sack we’ve tried. We’ve tried many different sleep sacks. The fabric is absolutely the softest of any competitor, it has the perfect amount of snug stretch to make the baby comfortable, and the weighted beans really is a game changer. She took to the zen one immediately, was calm almost immediately and now that she’s 3 months, 2 weeks into her nested bean, she has slept through the entire night! I only wish that there was one size bigger, my baby is long and bigger for her age, she needs a little more leg and hip room, but not ready to move to the sleeveless one yet. She still loves her arms close inside the mesh cubbies. This sleep sack is the best, I would highly recommend it, worth every penny!
Dannae L.
Within two nights, my 5 week old was sleeping much longer and much deeper! It gave us as new parents much-needed rest, and her too! Now she wakes up smiling and happy!
Elizabeth K.
Love nested bean products from using with my last baby. Wanted to try at an earlier age for our 3 week old who hated his arms down but couldn’t have them out. I love the weighted chest but our baby didn’t seem to love his arms being up and constricted like that. The swaddle does seem to run a little small. We have taken the arms off (nice feature) and he is sleeping well with his arms out.
Megan W.
Soft fabric and works well to get my little one to sleep more comfortably
Shannon F.
Our baby loves this swaddle! His sleep is so much better since we started using it! The versatility is the best part.. Arms up for daytime naps, arms down to signal long night time sleep (he sleeps 10 hours through the night since using this swaddle!) and we will soon unzip the “sleeves” to allow him to have arms out while still using the weighted chest to comfort him. AMAZING product, I recommend to everybody!
Angela W.
This has been great for our 2 month old who isn’t yet ready to fully transition out of the swaddle yet likes to move her arms. The weighted best keeps her comforted without having to always swaddle her arms. A great transition sack!
Amy H.
I’ll start by saying that we loved the nested bean sacks for our son! So we thought we’d love the zen one for our premie daughter that needs to be swaddled to sleep well at night. We were much less and impressed and actually only used it one time for a 4 hour stretch. It was so small! She had just barely hit 8lbs so we went with the 0-3 and my was it a tight fit. We switched it out for the nested swaddle because we love that and so does our daughter. She just grunted the entire time she was wearing the zen one.. we were so disappointed that we spent over $40 on something she used once for a few hours. We should have gone with just the regular sleep sack. Lesson learned!!
Danielle S.
My baby loves being able to keep her arms up and now sleeps like an angel!
Rachelle D.
My babies are 2 months old and were born premature so they are on the smaller side but the 0-3 month size was way too tight with absolutely no room to grow. I exchanged for the 3-6 month size. I haven’t noticed a difference in sleep patterns yet but will continue to use. I was most disappointed that you don’t offer free return shipping especially for exchanges. When standing behind a product, this is very important! It cost me $15 to return the ones that didn’t fit when it likely would have cost your company significantly less, so even if you had to deduct a small fee from the refund in order to provide a return label, that would be better customer service. I sincerely hope that you improve this process!
Brittaney H.
This works so well for my baby who hated to be swaddled!
Tracy L.
It’s a good concept and I’m sure it works for some. My son is 8 weeks and already close to growing out of the 3-6 month size. The fabric is also a little thick and bulky.
Laura L.
My baby girls loves this product. Sge hates having her arms inside tucked down. Once we were able to get her arms in the mesh pieces she slept better. She even looks down at the product when it is time for a nap, ready to get in. Sometimes she even whines for it!
Jessica L.
I'm not sure how we got through the entire infant stage with our first baby, without a Nested Bean! This thing is magical. Our second child (infant) slept through the night from the first time we put her in it. We bought the next size up when she grew out of her first one, and now we are already worried about when she grows out of this one because it's the biggest size they sell! GREAT PRODUCT!!
Ashley S.
My little boy sleeps so well. thank you
Deborah G.
Our baby girl went from waking every few minutes to half an hour, to sleeping from 745/8 pm to 730/8 am almost every night. It’s been a complete game changer for our family, thankfully!!
Cynthia T.
I wanted to love this. The product itself is good quality but my LO just didn’t care for it. I gave it over a week and I didn’t see any better sleep. If anything, same or slightly worse. Unfortunately bought two and returning seems to be a hassle.
Caitlin A.
This product is a game changer! 10 out of 10 would HIGHLY recommend. Before we started using the nested bean our daughter wouldn't sleep more than 2 to 3 hours at a time. However since we got this she consistency sleeps 6ish hours straight. It is so amazing to get a good nights sleep again next to my little nested bean ❤ worth every dollar spent.
Caitlin B.
I love these swaddles as my kiddo has intense reflexes.
Megan S.
The perfect outfit for my snuggle bunny!
Heather M.
100% worth the $$ our baby was not sleeping and the very 1st night we put him in his sack he slept 5 hours! It was amazing and I have been singing nested beans praises to anyone who will listen.
Erika M.
Had the swaddle for about a month now. It seems to help some but my baby still wakes up often at night to feed. I do like to place him in the swaddle as it creates a nice sleep routine and he looks adorable in it.
Rylie D.
My baby started sleeping longer stretches once we switched to the Zen One. She went from waking up every 2-3 hours, to sleeping 6-8 hours at night!
Brittany J.
It’s great we just wish it didn’t go to far up under his neck
Olivia A.
Absolutely love the Zen sack! We were getting concerned as we approached the time to retire the swaddle that our little one wouldn’t sleep but he loves this! We started him a little early so he could transition with the mesh arms, but he easily soothed himself each night. He sleeps anywhere from 6-8 hours between waking up to eat and we 100% credit this sleep sack!
Kathleen K.
I am a foster mom to infants.
Often times our kids come with a history of drug exposure and they are prone to having a low startle point.
The Zen One comforts them better than any other type of swaddle I have tried.
The babies relax as soon as I zip them up!
Megan W.
I love the nested bean swaddle and wish I had discovered is sooner. My little one didn’t like her arms held down like is done with traditional swaddles. She sleeps soundly with her arms slightly up. The gentle weight on her chest does wonders for helping to soothe her between sleep cycles.
Emily B.
Bought this in addition to the smaller one and it’s been great to use both and know this option will last us a few more months once our daughter grows out of the 0-3 month one. Both provide her great comfort while sleeping on her own at night!
Emily B.
We love this sleep sack! Our baby has been sleeping 6-7 hours straight in it and waking very calmly after the long stretches too. I’ve that we can unzip the arms now that’s she’s about to roll over. Thank you!!
Kelci R.
This sleep sack has been a life saver for us at bed time, she still wakes to eat as she is only 5 weeks but she will go right back to sleep after! So glad we purchased this!
Alicia K.
These have been a game changer for us! However, I purchased the next size up, as my little one has grown out of the newborn size, and the next size up is too big for her. I wish there were a size in the middle.
Courtney S.
I want to love this product so much. The concept is great, and I love the versatility. However, the construction and quality leave something to be desired. After just two washes the lavender one I bought has a hole along the inner belt and the mesh arm also has a hole in it. The blue one has strings sticking out all over the place. I’m most disappointed in the customer service however, as I have sent them multiple messages regarding the dysfunctional product and have heard no response.
Mary C.
I like the swaddle, my only suggestion is the mesh material for the hands is so fragile and thin and with baby’s sharp nails it snags easily and looks as though it’s on the verge of tearing
reanna p.
I was SO excited to get this in the mail. The shipping was incredibly fast! Ordered on Monday and got here Wednesday, faster than any Amazon package I’ve got since you know what.
It just doesn’t seem to work as well for my 6 week old baby as I hoped, but will keep using it! I’m glad I got the small. He fits in it already and has room to grow (currently weighs 13 lbs) the newborn size would’ve lasted us a couple weeks…
Love the material. But the sleeves are weird. My baby was able to get his hands up a couple times and I didn’t notice until it was tome to wake up. But then other times he’s woken up super mad and his arms are awkwardly stuck, like he was trying to get them up but too tight. I took them off and swaddle him with arms down, but he has gotten his arms out a couple times with no problems.
Courtney B.
My son was struggling to sleep more than 2-4hrs as a time before I purchased this swaddle.
My son has now been sleeping 6-7hrs hours at a time since wearing this swaddle. Absolutely LOVE this item!
Angie H.
Worked after the first night and by the 5th night was sleeping all night.
Allison N.
My LO loves it!
Jessica W.
I love it but I think it runs very small. We have a preemie girl who’s 4 mo and this JUST FIT. we had to exchange for a regular sack. They’re very cute though.
Aurora M.
Our little one loves having his arms up and hates having them swaddled by his sides or on his chest. I thought this would be the perfect swaddle for him. He tolerated the mesh arms once but after that it seemed like they hurt his wrists because he cried until I took the sleeves off. The weight is amazingly helpful at helping him self soothe and he likes the compression from the wrap portion. My one major complaint was that the zipper rides up and gets bunched up under his neck. I wish they had made this more of a wide collar or v neck opening.
Amanda W.
Our daughter loves her Zen One! She’s been sleeping so well since we got it for her. I wish we would have ordered one sooner.
Amber D.
Absolutely love our new sleep sack! Our sweet boy has slept 11+ hours straight since we began using it!
Jessy D.
Love the soft feel of the fabric for the baby. Easy to put on. Unfortunately, it seemed to tight for my 2 month old and she seemed uncomfortable. I did buy a second one for my nephew and he sleeps much better.
Sole' K.
Great customer service and quick response to defective item.
Ida R.
Sleeps through the night
Riley F.
I am so impressed! I was worried that it wouldn't be worth the money but she sleeps so well in it. My newborn likes to pivot around in her bassinet and this helps keep her in the middle instead of wiggling to the side. Our house is warmer during the summer so I am happy that it's not too thick while still providing comfort and weight.
It also washes very well, I don't air dry it, just throw it with delicates and it has held up no problem!
Am buying more!!!
Cassie W.
We ordered the nested bean sleep sack and after the first use the arms tore. I contacted customer service and they were so accommodating. Within days I had a new sleep sack and haven’t had any issues with the replacement. Customer service handled the problem quickly and kindly. I highly recommend the product and the company!
My 3 month old loves the weighted sleep sack too. I noticed an improvement her sleep after the first use.
Scott R.
We love our Nested Bean! My 14 week old has been in the Nested Bean swaddles since 4 weeks and they’ve been amazing for her. She loves being able to have her arms up by her head, and now that she’s older she can bring her hands to her mouth to suck on them. She won’t take a pacifier, so this has been a lifesaver for us in helping her to soothe herself at bedtime. We’ll use our Nested Beans as long as we can!
Catherine S.
This fit my baby for two weeks and was great in that time… but he’s 7.5 weeks old now and the 3-6month size is getting too small :(
Naesha R.
Runs a bit small, I ordered 3-6 my baby is nearly 2 months and it’s a bit snug. But great product.
Liz
Our 2 month old is a swaddle escape artist and so many other swaddles like this haven't worked so I was skeptical of this one at first. But, this one actually works really well! I highly recommend it, it's worth the price!
Morgan V.
This works great for allowing my little one to lay with his arms up while suppressing his startle reflex. However I received this item and washed it as the directions stated, and I noticed it had a hole in the seem a few days later. I’ve attempted to reach out via the return/exchange form and my calling the costumer service line and left a message, with yet to hear back from either. I like the product but I would like it to last longer than a week.
Mary D.
Bought this for my granddaughter. My daughter said it really helped the baby to sleep much longer. She also liked the mesh on the hands so the baby can still have access to them. Would definitely recommend this product.
Amy H.
I’ve previously purchased a Zen One in the doodles style for my baby and it worked wonderfully. Hence, I decided to purchase an extra but this one doesn’t work at all. My baby will cry in it and it took him longer time to fall asleep in this recent purchase. Upon comparison between this new lavender zen one and the previously purchased doodles zen one, I realized they’re made in factory in different countries. One material is more elastic than the other, and the amount of bean is different too. I wish there’s quality control over the product.
Jaime K.
We purchased this to wean from the snoo (arms in) to the crib during naps before full nights. It’s doing just the trick…a little more freedom from the snoo sack but not too much with arms fully out. We also love the weight in the perfect spots.
Michelle C.
Twelve been using the nested bean for a little over a week and it has been okay but not a wild change from the sleep our baby was getting before. We have found that the swaddle part can be dangerous if you have a baby that tries to wiggle out of it... we've unzipped him to find the velcro up near his neck a few times. We've started putting him down with his hands in the mesh pockets and that is helping. As he keeps using it you can see him get more and more comfortable with it so maybe a full nights rest is on the horizon!
LYNSEY L.
Wow! I can’t say enough good about this! From the first night — noticed a major difference. He calms down so much more quickly and falls asleep and stays asleep! Love love love this. We will be buying again.
Kareema A.
It actually started working on the 3rd night i was so shocked! I jumped up out of my sleep because i was scared she hadn’t woke up in a long time. I was definitely rested that night. Recommend to anyone. I wish i would have ordered it before i gave birth so i would have it when i got home from the hospital.
danielle c.
Literally obsessed ! My little guy is 2 months old and sleeps from 8-6 every night now ! Even his naps which were the hardest to do he now naps for 2 hours at a time .. today 3&1/2 !
Leah H.
This product will be good once we transition to a sleep sack only but unfortunately the swaddle straps on the inside aren’t secure enough for my son and he hates being strapped into it unlike other swaddles we use
Hannah T.
My daughter is SO STRONG that her startle reflex would wake her up every time! These zen swaddles have so many options we just played around with it till we found the perfect fit! (Arms up) 7 weeks old and already sleeping like a champ!
KEHINDE B.
Love the quality and baby sleeps well in it
Shannon M.
We love the weighted aspect of this swaddle and it is really well made! However, the mesh where you place the arms is so small! Our baby is still well within the weight range for this swaddle yet there is not enough room for his arms in the arm pockets. His little wrists get bent and it is very uncomfortable for him. I wish they would make the arm pockets bigger.
Morgan N.
Here my baby is sleeping in her own bed for the first time with the Zen One swaddle! It’s a miracle!
Erin R.
My Daughter was waking up 3-4 times a night. First night using the sleep sack she slept 9 hours straight! I’m not a mom who buys unnecessary things in fear of wasting money. Especially, because I’m a mom of 4! But I was amazed by how well this worked! She was sleeping through the night on first use and her fussiness during the day ended:). My poor baby was just tired and she cried all day:(. I believe her startle reflex was waking her. But this sleep sack is like a hug :). It truly has changed my babies life for the better she is a happy baby. It’s as if a light switch was turned on and she now can function through out the day:). She even feeds better because she isn’t tired and fussy:). Therefore, it even has helped her grow! I’m telling you it’s definitely worth a shot:)! Because your sleep and your babies sleep makes everyone happier!
Carissa O.
My baby was waking up multiple times a night before we tried this. She is almost 3 months old now, and she is getting better at sleeping through the night with the sleep sack. It took a few days, but she now only wakes up one time instead of multiple times throughout the night. Definitely worth the money!
Brenda G.
We love our sleep sack so much. Its really helped our baby sleep longer stretches!
