We love this swaddle so much! It’s no coincidence that the day we started using the Nested Bean swaddles, she started sleeping longer.
Would definitely recommend!
Dayna C.
I love the zen one my daughter is sleeping better and is still able to access her hand to self soothe at night definitely my favorite swaddle out of all the ones I have tried
Rachel C.
I love this product, their faces says it all !! Started it as soon as my son could fit and he stays asleep in it for so long. I would keep waking up to check on him myself but he’s always out and feels very secure. So so glad I was able to grab one and deff going to get the sleep sack when he’s too big for this one.

I purchased the Nested Bean Swaddle and loved it for my newborn. He is currently 12# and 24.5in long so he out grew that one, I moved on to the ZenOne. However, I feel like I am either not putting it on correctly or it’s just not fitting him appropriately and he is definitely not sleeping as great. He needs his arms tucked or covered to get good rest. Also $15 for express shipping was annoying. Please help!

We are new parents and we absolutely believe in the Nested Bean Zen One Classic. Our child will sleep from 7/7:30 PM to 6:30 AM. Our child is on a schedule and we don't have any issues letting him nap or put him to sleep at night. Overall, it is a miracle swaddle! I look forward to using the transitional swaddles in the very near future!
Kayla D.
Bought this sleep sack to try out because my baby is very fidgety and always trying to get hand out which in turn wakes him up. The first couple of nights he wouldn’t let us put his hands in the mesh parts so we didn’t get the full effect and wondered if I wasted the money. One night he let me put his hands in and he slept for almost 5 hours! And in the morning when he’s usually restless and grunting, he much more calm and actually sleeps past 5am! So glad I kept trying and that I purchased this product!
Rebecca H.
I bought this for my 2 month old granddaughter. She was waking up many many times a night without needing to be fed or changed. The first night she, she slept 6 straight hours. This made both Momma and baby very happy. Thank you Nested Bean.
latasha m.
My baby was 2.5 months when we purchased her nested bean. She was still waking up once in the middle night for a feeding. Within the first week of purchasing the nested bean, she slept through the night without a feeding. There is still the occasional night she wakes up, but she typically sleeps through the night. We (her exhausted parents) love our nested bean.
Irene C.
Nice but it’s small. Tight fit
Nicole F.
This has been a live saver as we work on transitioning from a traditional swaddle! And love that we can use the Zen through all of the stages!
Heather Y.
I don’t think this product made a difference for my daughter. We tried it for a couple of weeks, and she isn’t sleeping any better or worse. I will say, she is less able to break out of this when arms are swaddled down than she was the Halo Sleepsack Swaddle. But we haven’t found that she responded to the weighted aspect of this product.
It is made well and arrived on time.
Becca P.
This is my favorite baby product! My son started sleeping longer stretches the very first night I put him in his weighted Zen One sleep sack. I recommend these every chance I get!
Sarah A.
Love this swaddle! From the first night my baby was born, he resisted having his arms swaddled down. He would cry and wiggle around until he either managed to get one of his hands out and up by his face or we finally gave up and freed his arms. Needless to say, traditional swaddle blankets as well as swaddle sacks didn’t work for him but I knew he needed to be swaddled because he would wake himself up with all of the reflex jerks. I found another arms up swaddle brand and tried it and it seemed to help but I can’t say that it was anything magical. Once he started getting close to outgrowing that swaddle I started researching other arms up swaddles and came across the Zen One. After looking at all of the reviews, I knew I had to give it a try. I purchased it when my son was 6 weeks old. The first night, he slept better than he ever had! Naps were always a struggle also but with the Zen One, he naps so much better! I call it the miracle swaddle. :) I would highly recommend this swaddle for any baby but especially one that does not like the traditional swaddle sacks. Trust me, it’s worth it.
Cortney P.
This swaddle is great for babies that love to be snug. My little girl loved being snug about a month ago so I caved and decided to buy this swaddle. She now was showing all the signs that she was ready to be out of a swaddle. Sad that she only got to use it for a week!
Harley S.
Our daughter was on the verge of rolling, so we needed to transition her out of her swaddle. I was worried about the process being horrible for everyone, but with this sleep sack it actually went really well! She is now perfectly content sleeping with her arms free and we all love this sleep sack!
Ashley P.
Missy loves her sleep sack! She loves to be secure and comfortable and this really helps! She sleeps 8 hours during the night and she is only 9 weeks old! Would recommend to anyone with a baby!
Missy S.
We were using another brand swaddle and it worked well for the first 2 months. Now that he has discovered his hands, he was fighting the swaddle and not staying asleep. We transitioned him to the Zen One and the first night he slept 7+ hours. Naps have also been longer. We love it so much and will be buying for friends as baby shower gifts.
Disclaimer: dog and baby don’t sleep together, just set him here for a cute picture.
Jessica N.
He started sleeping through the night. 3.5 months and sleeps 8-10 hrs at night. Love.
Olivia R.
My son struggles with the startle effect pretty badly. He didn't do well with the traditional swaddling with his arms at his sides. So we gave the Nested Bean Zen One a try and fell in love with it! It took him a couple of days to get used to it but once he did he was sleeping longer and better! This design allows for his arms to not be tethered by his sides but rather up by his head where he likes it! Also the arms unzip to allow him to stretch and have his arms free when he wants!!! I LOVE THIS SLEEPING SACK!!! 10 OUT OF 10!!!
Charity C.
My three month old sleeps 10 hours each night, and is able to put herself to sleep each night. I know the nested bean has helped soothe her and allows her to drift off peacefully and stay alseep!
Angelo L.
it was a good buy, it would be nice if it was just a little more affordable; because i would buy more than one.
Joe C.
First night my loved one wore his Zen One he slept for 8 hours straight. No night feeding at all! He was 3 months when we first got it. We waited what felt like an eternity for it to be restocked and I’m so glad we jumped on it when they came back. He’s been sleeping 8-10 ever since.
MEGAN H.
Love it, only wish it came in another size larger, I have a big baby that is going to outgrow it in a few weeks...
Tia C.
Great quality and well made. Sad to say that this sack didnt do anything for my little one. He is still waking up 2-3 times a night...currently on day 15 with the sack.
Sara J.
We love the Zen One swaddle! It is so soft and functional! My little guy loves that he can reach his fingers with his mouth to soothe and I love that he stays asleep longer and falls asleep quicker with the weighted pad on his chest. I can easily change his diaper with the two way zipper without un-swaddling him.
Pamela F.
My baby girl was starting to sleep restlessly (4 month sleep regression) so after looking at these for a while I finally bought one and she has been sleeping better ever since. I’m hoping it helps wean her off of swaddling, too. I would recommend it to anyone.
brittany d.
Haven’t used it yet, bought for my unborn baby but great and comfy material!!
Alisha S.
It definitely helps with sleep but our issue is it bunches up at the neck and worries me that it might cover his face while sleeping
Alisha S.
We are getting a more restful sleep now! Thank you!
Rachel C.
I ordered the 3-6m because my LO was outgrowing they newborn. Well this new one is only a couple inches longer and she’s already close to outgrowing it and she’s only 13 weeks! She sleeps well in it, but her feet are getting bunches up already. I just wish it was longer. Not sure what we’ll do when she outgrows this—and it’ll be soon!
Amanda R.
My baby loves this sack! Sleeps for 7 hours at a time
Makaela K.
It has helped my baby sleep so much better!
Moriah W.
This was a great transition from a newborn swaddle! Our little one loves it!
Candace B.
Our bubs became too strong for the newborn swaddle, so we graduated to this one! We love it! There’s no more getting his arms out in the middle of the night. Also love that when it’s time, we can unzip the sleeves and continue to use!
Corbin B.
Best swaddle ever after the 3rd night he’s slept through the night wish we would have had this swaddle from the beginning
Sandra C.
I bought this not because my little 10 week baby was not sleeping well but because she had started to escape her current zip up swaddle that restricted her hands to her chest. I felt the zen one would be a perfect transition. I debated over size as my baby is long but didn’t quite fit the size small in weight however did fit it in length recommendations so went with the small and very glad I did as seems short already.Initially I thought the neck hole was much too large (that’s how she was escaping from the other swaddle) but so far it has been perfect and think the middle band helps. First time I used it she had a two hour nap in her pram as per the pic and overnight she slept 7-4am (no dreamfeed) so pretty good although was always a good sleeper. Personally I don’t like the beads as feel the puffy chest part gets in the way whilst breastfeeding but not a big deal-baby seems much more comfortable sleeping having that extra arm movement and I may also even try transitioning her further starting with one arm out. I really wanted the pink color but was out of stock and couldn’t wait so got the sand which is ok- she looks cute in anything anyway☺️ Appreciated the very quick shipment but customer service response was slow.
Heather C.
She does so well with her bean! Typically sleeps six hours after being put down
Danielle L.
Fits well and helps relax baby. Like that it has so many options for hands.
Iris V.
My baby is four months old. And it is small for him.
I wish different sizes like Small, medium or large
Amanda W.
My daughter went from sleeping 3 hours to 6 hour stretches at night!
Dan K.
It’s Amazing! Love it ❤️
Jenaye S.
Great for babies who love hands up and makes diaper changes a lot easier at night!
Tatevik A.
Baby didn’t like it! Too small!
Vivian A.
I’m so glad I decided to make the purchase. My daughter was sleeping 4-5 hours through the night. But once we started using our nested bean she now sleeps 8+ hours in the night. I’m very thankful.
Lauren B.
I was so excited to try this product. I bought the 3-6 MO for my 2 MO. he already weighted 12 lbs so I thought he would pleasantly grow into this. After trying it on once, it was so tight I didn’t feel comfortable having him in it and can’t fathom him at 6 MO wearing the swaddle. I wish it was bigger.
Erin K.
Love the nested bean! My son slept better since night 1 we put him in it! I recommend to everyone!
Katherine O.
Order 3-6months and it seems to run way smaller than the actual size it says it is. My son was not able to use it at all.
Ashley H.
Total game changer! She loves her hands up, so this sleep suit enabled that while keeping her tight and cozy! She now sleeps 6 hours straight at night...and she’s just 6 weeks! I already went to buy the 3-6 month version and was so sad it’s sold out. It gets restocked soon!
Vicki G.
This is the face of a baby that absolutely LOVES this swaddle, and believe me....we have bought them all! She was born at 5lbs 12 oz, so she’s always been a little on the smaller side, so the 0-3 has been absolutely perfect for her! As soon as the 3-6 is back in stock we are getting 2 since she’s now outgrown the current length of this size. I love this swaddle, it’s superior in every area!
ERICA W.
I started off with just regular swaddles, and they worked okay. Then I came across nested bean and got 2 of the den classics. Little man eventually got big enough to break through them so I wanted patiently for the Zen One transition swaddle. These products have done wonders for us. Baby sleeps throughout the night, and if he does wake up it's only once and right back to sleep! I swear by these products and tell ALL my mom friends about them
Rebekah S.
Our little guy loves the Zen One. He is sleeping at least 2 hours longer! Anywhere from 7-10 hours each night, then more after an early morning feeding. Used the sleeves the first week then he began getting frustrated & waking up so we removed them. We don’t use the Velcro band. He is 3.5 months & almost 15 pounds—wish it came in a larger size! We did purchase the sleep sack to grow into, but that one is not tight around the middle.
Jacquelyn I.
Honestly, we were very excited for this sleep sack as we had heard others have success. However, once we tried it out for a few nights with our little one we were not impressed. It’s a fine product but for our little girl it performs just as well as other lower priced products (i.e. sleep swaddle sacks). Unfortunately I would not purchase again, was hoping it would be the ticket for our little night owl but it turned out not to be the case.
Kerri S.
I did not notice a huge difference it it helping my son to sleep longer. He only wore it a few times and the zipper was kind of in his face because of the design of it. I couldn't zipper it all the way up and had to tuck it under so it didn't bother his chin. He doesn't swaddle his arms so the part that wrapped around his body wasn't needed. I will try it a few more times but he is sleeping longer just on his own with his own development. He is now 3.5 months old.
Kyra S.
I can’t wait to for my newborn to get here and try it out.
Rachel C.
I thought my daughter would love this since she likes sleeping with her hands above her head. I waited weeks for it to come back in stock and finally got it when she was about 6 weeks. I bought both the 0-3 and 3-6 sizes. Being 6 weeks and about 10lbs I figured she'd fit in the 0-3 just fine. But she was just about too long for it. The arm holes were hard to fit her arms in, they're really tight. And when I took it off her she had the mesh imprinted on her knuckles because it was too tight. I continued to use it for several days. Several times during each day for naps. And she just fought me every time she didn't like it. I did also try the 3-6 month. But it was a little too big and was too much material around her neck and mouth. I'm still going to try the bigger size within the next week or so.
I'm disappointed she doesn't like it so far, I really wanted her to. I think I'm going to end up returning both sizes.
Bhuvaneshwari K.
Swaddle was very warm. It does not feel like cotton. The idea is ok, but totally did not work for my baby. I am trying to return as it is quite expensive.
Jenn W.
We love the zen swaddles. We initially ordered the zen one in 0-3 months for our newborn and it was quite small, and only fit her for a week or so. But we immediately ordered a new one because we could already see a huge difference in our daughter's sleeping habits. She went from sleeping about 45 minutes at a time, to 3 hours, and kept increasing. She likes having her hands up so the hand attachments are genius for keeping hands up, yet in place so baby doesn't startle themselves. Basically this product has been a lifesaver for us . Also--- we were still able to return that first swaddle even though the return window had closed thanks to covid. AND after we returned it, I received an email thanking me for the return and saying that it will be donated. I really appreciate that returned swaddles are donated. So..we are impressed all around! With the products and the customer service.
courtney a.
It is extremely tight for our chunky guy and it unfortunately didn't improve his sleep :(
Amy B.
My daughter has been sleeping in this sack since she was 9 weeks. She used the Nested Bean swaddle before that. I do find that these products work great. She has been sleeping peacefully for 6 hours at night without stirring. The one thing I don’t like is the tightness of the sack. My baby is 12 weeks now and weights 12 lbs, the sack is a little tight which I do realize is half the point of them but I don’t find where she will be able to still use it up to 18lbs as it states. I wish they made one one more size up.
She hasn’t graduated to the arms free yet. But she and I love it all the same. It will be a great sleep sack when she has arms free also.
Natalia G.
Before making this purchase for my 4 month old, he would wake up every three hours for various reasons BUT now he honestly sleeps seven hours straight! He’s so comfortable in his sleep and wakes up with lot of energy. Love this product
Rachel C.
My daughter was breaking out of the swaddle and waking up every 2 hours but with this sleeper she’s doing much better sleeping and has done 8 + hours at a time.
Jamie O.
I only wish I could’ve gotten it sooner! They were on back order, so my little was almost 3 months before we started using it... but it’s wonderful! She’s been a swaddle baby from the start, I would get her as tight as possible but as she got bigger and stronger she was breaking loose from the swaddle with the blanket! Now, she’s in her Zen One nice and tight and is sleeping for 10-12 hours every single night. She’s not even 4 months old! This momma is happy!
Kelsie T.
Such a great product! We have used the swaddle and now the zen one and we could not be more pleased. Our little one started sleeping through the night as soon as we introduced Nested Bean products.
Barbara M.
Amazing product she seems to really like it
Leticia R.
My baby loves to have her hands up. She only wakes up once for a feeding now which is a huge improvement. She will be 3 months next week! I want to get a second one but they are sold out currently!
Brandy W.
Our little one loves it!! I love that her arms are able to be up by her head but still contained enough not to wake herself up. Well worth the money!
Marisa J.
I read all the reviews and really did my homework before making this purchase. The reviews were fantastic and we are right in the midst of the 4 month sleep regression/transition out of the traditional swaddle. Maybe it was all the changes (?) but it hasn’t been our saving grace. I do like that we can unzip the sleeves when he starts rolling back to belly.
Frank P.
I purchased this after seeing so many ads about getting better sleep within 1-3 nights. It has not lived up to that and I've had it for 2 weeks. My 4 months old sleeps no differently than she did before this. Its a nice design and I really wanted to like it but it just turned out to be another waste of my money.
Alysha M.
Fist nap using the swaddle was over 2 hours!!! A week later and my 5 week old is giving me 4-5 hour stretches at night and will even put himself to sleep!!!! My only regret is that i waited so long to purchase it!
Daniela T.
Love it! Baby falls asleep on her own! She outgrew newborn swaddles, and this was the perfect transition.
Danielle K.
My son loves to be swaddled but hated his hands being restricted to his sides. We got the Zen One because his arms could be up while being swaddled, but wasn't able to claw at his face when he gets tired. The weighted sleep sack has helped get him to sleep faster and allowed him and US to get longer stretches of sleep! Definitely recommend! -Danielle
Jessica C.
I really wish this item came in a third size that was larger. It seems like a perfect combination for our family because sometimes my son prefers to be swaddled hands down and sometimes he prefers hands up and to the side of his face. I also like that the hands zip off so it could be worn after he starts rolling over.
However... at 2 and a half months he has already outgrown this item. He was large for his age (95% percentile) at his 2 month appointment, but he has not hit 18 lbs yet (he was 15 lbs 2 weeks ago so he's maybe 16-17lbs right now). Yet we can't even zip up this item it's so tight.
Since this item has arms that zip off to accommodate babies that roll having a larger size would be much appreciated. As it stands I spent $50 on something that should work for my baby's weight that literally would not zip up the first time we tried it.
Jennifer F.
I really wanted to like this swaddle and how versatile it is. My 4.5 month old is at the max weight so it’s pretty tight. It’s too bad this isn’t available in a larger size.
Jazmine B.
My daughter is 11 weeks old. The first night she wore it she slept 7 hours straight! It was a dream come true! I love this thing so much! One of the best baby products I’ve purchased. I bought the 3-6 so it would last her as long as possible without having to purchase another one.
maleah m.
So far we have really enjoyed the Zen One sack. My only complaint is that the sack is not very long. My daughter is 4 months old and is nearly too long for her 3-6 month sack, and she is average in weight and length. Wish they had made it longer!
Lindsay N.
So far, so good! We are definitely starting to get 4 hour stretches with the help of the swaddle at night-- however, I am still hoping it will help with naps and it isn't just yet, but I am hopeful!
Hana V.
Was waiting for the Zen One to be restocked and once it did, I grabbed one right away because my oldest loved the swaddle but my newborn, an escape artist... long story short, my newborn will be 3 month in a couple of weeks, I ordered the 3-6 months— and it’s already too small for him. I believe it shrunk while I washed it? I don’t know but spending $40 for 2 weeks of usage is pretty wasteful, I wish they come in larger sizes for parents to choose from. No, my baby is not a large baby, born 7lbs 10oz. Has the sleeping improved? Ahhhh... it’s not a magic swaddle as some of the videos may have shown.
Kelly F.
Worked wonders for my LO. We started using it when she was 6 weeks old and she slept 2-3 hours longer that first night and has ever since!
Rebecca S.
Love the fabric and quality! However the sizing run small, our 11 week old is pretty snug in the 3-6month size. He will soon out grow it, especially the zipped arm pockets and the space under his arm pits are already tight
taylor m.
I absolutely love the zen one. We started with the zen swaddle and my daughter started sleeping through the night the first night we put her in it at 2 months old. We transferred her to the zen one just recently and moved her to her crib and she is doing great! As soon as we zip her up she starts to close her eyes! Life saver!
Halie G.
My third purchase from nested bean! My daughter sleeps SO well since we started using these products when she was a few days old. I’ve since bought two more to give as gifts.
Caitlin Z.
My baby sleeps through the night with her nested bean. Worth every penny.
Danielle L.
Get this!!!! You will not regret it! We went through two other sleep sacks before trying this one and at 6 weeks old we put my daughter in this and I kid you not she has slept through the night ever since. She is now 4 months and we just got her the next size up in the ZEN One. Love it!
Danielle L.
Love! Love! Love! The ZEN One is a life changer!!! My baby has been using one since about 6 weeks old and sleeps soundly all through the night! Can't recommend this one enough!
Ashley H.
Couldn’t wait for this product to come off of back order and as soon as it did, I ordered ! He slept through the night the very first time we put him in it and has continued to sleep through the night !!! We love our nested bean!!
Ashley D.
I had such high hopes for this product but I haven’t seen any improvements in my son’s sleep yet after one week of use. He is still waking up all night. Also, I was really surprised at how small it is. My son just turned three months old and I purchased the 3 to 6 months size. It’s already extremely tight on him and I don’t see this lasting him much longer. He is on the taller side, 75th percentile, but still I am a little disappointed that it definitely won’t last him through six months.
Laurie Z.
Baby loves this and is sleeping so much better!!! Wanted to order another on but said "Out of Stock"!!!
Judy L.
Size runs way too small for 3-6 month. Baby is 2 and a half month and it's tight.
Melissa J.
My daughter is 3 months old. The first night my daughter slept well, but she still woke up for one bottle during the night. By the second night she slept through the night 10pm-9am! She is still very young so I very much believe the Zen One sack helped her soothe herself back to sleep. Was worth every penny.
Karla F.
I liked the concept of it, however it is not for chunky babies. I bought 3-6 months as it was the biggest size and o couldn’t stop her arms in bc it was too tight. Also in general it was still tight. Mind you she is not a massive baby either so disappointed that I spend $50 for it not to fit her. I couldn’t refine it bc I had washed it before I even put it in her.
Cristal M.
My baby girl is 7 weeks and I have struggled getting her to sleep in her bassinet/crib. I received the Zen One yesterday and first night was a SUCCESSS!!! . I could not believe it! I tried all type of swaddles and tricks and nothing was working . Thank you!!
Carly C.
Love!! We started with the Nested Bean swaddle, but my little girl hates her arms being contained. She has slept with her hands above her head since she was born. (She even wiggled an arm out of her swaddle in the hospital!) The swaddle helped her stay asleep all night since day 10 of her life! When we switched to this one, she was much easier to get to sleep, and she stays asleep. She can chew on her fingers through the mesh if she wants, and she loves that. I will absolutely be using this for each baby, and it is my new baby shower gift!!
Kaila M.
Definitely a must have for first time parents. Our son went from sleeping 3-4 hour stretches to sleeping nearly 6 hours straight every night!
Candice G.
I love that even with the sleeves attached, Luca is still able to suck on his hands (or at least try). As he is discovering his hands and learning to self-soothe, he can still do this and get back to restful sleep while wearing the ZenOne sleepsack!
Jessica A.
I had a basic swaddle. And I thought this was gonna help since she was out growing the other swaddle and it Just made it worse I think. She went from waking up once a night at 5am to waking up 4 times. I don’t think this swaddle is for her
Fallon S.
She sleep so amazing with the sleep sac on! So happy with our purchase!
Kara O.
I ordered this swaddle at 4am while feeding my little one. He seemed to always be fussy after a middle of the night feeding when I put him in other swaddles. He didn’t love the Ollie swaddle or the Halo and prefers his arms/hands up and next to his face so I thought this one was perfect. I put this on him and he calms down what seems almost immediately. It’s magic and very well made! I already bought the 3-6 month one for when he outgrows the 0-3 month size. If you are on the fence get this one!
Liz P.
We purchased the Nested Bean Zen One right in time for our baby's 3 month birthday. Our baby is average in weight and height and we found that the sleepsack is actually really snug around her chest and belly. I don't see how they will be able to wear this for the next couple months until they turn 6 months old. We have tried it for 7 nights and have seen slight improvement in sleep. Our baby has not been consistent with sleeping a certain number of hours per night. It typically ranges from 3 to 4 hours which was similar to how they were sleeping prior to using the Zen One. We will continue to try it out but this seems like a one-time purchase for us.
Trista B.
Absolutely love it. Makes naptime and bedtime so much easier.
Meghan G.
I was counting down the days until this arrived! Our little girl at 4 weeks decided she hated the swaddle and wanted her arms by her face. I ordered this in a hurry hoping that it would help at night. Guess what? It did!! She's now going in 4 hour stretches whereas before it was closer to 2 to 3 hr stretches. It doesn't matter if you're a first time parent or a seasoned parent (this is our 3rd child), I would recommend everyone buy this!
