The idea of using the weight is great, but the swaddle design needs some updates. Most swaddles have velcro on the chest and one on the wrap, making it impossible for baby to unwrap it. The nested bean swaddle only has the one on the wrap so in the night my baby would move and end up with the swaddle up around her neck. There needs to be something to keep it more secure

I thought this would be great for my baby. But instead was not. The first night he slept 2 hours and got out of it. Thought okay it’s just the first night. Second night the same, and had to re swaddle him after changing his diaper as there is no bottom zipper to avoid that. And took longer to put him to bed. The weight kept going to his side as he moved. Not for us.

It might be a coincidence, but the night we started using this sleep sack was the first night our baby had a long stretch of sleep! We use it every single night and have good sleep nights ever since. This swaddle will be my go-to gift for new parents from now on.

My baby girl was having trouble sleeping on her own. As soon as we would put her in her bassinet she would wake up crying. Decided to give this swaddle a try and literally the first night we used it she slept for a 6 hour stretch followed by a feed and another 4 hour stretch. SO impressed. This thing is a life saver!!
Angela R.
Best sleep sacs I have ever used. I have twin boys, and I honestly think these boys went from 3 hrs of sleep , to the 1 twin 8-9 hours and the other twin 6-7 ( he needs his soother) the product is 100% worth the money , I plan to purchase next sizes as they grow and they give the best baby gift!! I contact nested bean regarding an issue with one and they completely replaced it which I was beyond grateful for them doing!! Thanks again
Caitlin R.
I was so excited to try the swaddle! My son met all the weight and height requirements but no matter what, he can always get his arms out or he manages to push the weighted part down. Unfortunately for us it hasn't helped.
Rachelle A.
Love the quality of these swaddles, great fabric and well made. Enjoying the versatility and being able to use these without swaddling babes arms.
Highly recommend!!
Samantha N.
Didn’t work for my baby whatsoever. After a week of trying, I reverted back to a basic swaddle blanket. It didn’t provide baby with the snug secure feeling as she trashed and squirmed without settling for much longer than she typically would, slept for shorter periods, and hated the velcro noise when opening the swaddle for diaper changes. The weight didn’t seem to provide any comfort.
Erin B.
We were so excited to use this swaddle. We started using it as soon as it arrived 3 weeks ago.
I have washed it in cold water and hung tondry twice and it already has a hole in it. Very disappointing for the price we paid.
Krista J.
I love everything about the swaddle except the size, it wont fit my son much longer length wise and hes only two months and average size. I wish it was longer.
Ariana F.
It didn't work for me.
Cecelia o.
My grandson loves these!!!
Chantelle C.
Brought this after my son was 2 weeks old and wouldn’t sleep without being held and immediately started sleeping long stretches in his bassinet the night we bought this! Life saver!
Miguel C.
After 2 weeks of use our baby went from sleepping 2.5 hrs to sleep 12 hrs straight! Can't be happier with giving this a try!! We loved it and our life is wey different now! Thank you!!
Ashley K.
I had the product 2 weeks before it ripped and then sent an email to see if I could get it replaced and never received any response

Rachel E.
Not such a great purchase. The weight part of the sack never seems to sit right. The swaddle factor was lost because there was never a nice comfy wrap feeling the weights don’t allow for it. Also it ripped after day 3 so disappointed
Charmaine P.
I wanted my son to love this swaddle, unfortunately we tried many times and he hates it.
Laura R.
Great product! She started to sleep better after few days. However, the swaddle is too small, it says 0-6 months and my baby is 3 months and it won’t fit soon.
Ashley S.
My son is able to wiggle his arms out too often. Sac isn’t working for us.
Chelsea F.
My daughter was only giving me 2-3hr stretches. This meant only 1-2hr sleep in between feeds. With the zen sleep swaddle we can get 5-6hr stretches and she’s only 4 weeks old when we bought the swaddle. I definitely recommend this product.
Jacquie S.
The Zen swaddle wrap definitely helped with my daughters sleep, she would startle herself awake whenever I would set her down In her crib. Now with her arms securely wrapped she doesn’t wake as easily when setting her down. She still only sleeps 2-3 hour stints and I’ve been using it for 4 weeks now.
Jocelyne R.
It took awhile to get delivered but looks and feels beautiful.
Alexis P.
Would not recommend the swaddle for baby who breaks out of swaddle easily! My girl is two months and kept waking herself up due to swaddle going over her face and hands freed at the bottom. The weighted part of the swaddle would also come undone and not be kept inside securely no matter how tight we would wrap her in.
Lorinda M.
I have purchased two for my new grandson. He sleeps great in it!
Christina B.
Our son does calm down quickly with this swaddle, however he is very 'wiggly', and can always get his legs out. The interior (weighted part) is not velcro-d to anything like some other swaddles we have used. His wiggling is able to get that middle right off no matter how tight we do the top up. Three stars because I like that it is bigger/longer, and because I like that you can wear with the arms out.
Nancy M.
Received my order fairly rapidly. Very nice product, nice material and my baby loves it. Easy to put on and take off.
Laura H.
This did not work for us. Our baby actually slept worse. He was able to get his arm up out of the swaddle even though we did it as tight and right as possible (yes we watched the how to video etc). It took 3 weeks to arrive and we built up anticipation in that time that the product would be as advertised and improve sleep! Oh well.
Brittany T.
I LOVE these swaddles! I order one for every baby shower I go to now. I’m just about to order 3 more!
Julia P.
We have bought countless swaddles for our newborn and this is the only one worth keeping. He is now 7 weeks old and does not like being swaddled but he sleeps much better if he is. Right now we are transitioning with 1 arm out. We also bought a sleep sack which we havent tried yet but looks great. The garments are very high quality. Above and beyond other swaddles in terms of material, quality and function. I'm impressed!
Melissa P.
Baby girl isn't born yet but I wanted to speak on the material. It is very well made! It looks like it'll be really easy to use. I will come back and update my review when shes born :).
Amanda O.
We went from 4 hours to 6 1/2 hours of sleep. Baby was 5 weeks when I got it.
Paige d.
This worked in 20 seconds. My son was screaming so I quickly swaddled him and the screaming stopped instantly. Replaced with a huge smile. Definitely my best purchase ever.
Jennifer H.
Great fast delivery even during these tough times, love the feel. Can’t wait to wrap my little one in it when he arrives in July.
Neha K.
My 2-month old daughter would wake up at least 5 times per night until I started swaddling her with the nested bean zen swaddle. Now she only wakes up once or twice. She also sleeps longer! She’s more rested and in a great mood when she wakes up. I’m convinced there is fairy dust in this swaddle.
Danielle H.
Used twice so far and it's worked great! Little guy seems to sleep longer stretches when he's in it. No complaints here!
Erin T.
We’ve really enjoyed this swaddle for our 2 month old. Within the first few nights she was sleeping an hour more before waking to feed.
The fabric of this swaddle is super soft and feels very high quality.
Marrisa P.
We purchased the zen swaddle and the the zen sack for our 1.5 month old as he would fuss often throughout the night (after being fed, changed and rocked back to sleep he’d continue to wake up after being put back in his bassinet) so we were excited to try the swaddle when it came it. That night he only woke up twice during the night to eat! He continues to sleep so well with the swaddle. We haven’t tried the sack yet but I know it’ll be just as great. The fabric is so soft and it’s high quality and well made. Very happy with our purchases
Jennifer E.
Nice fabric and idea but the velcro is sooo loud at night when you don’t want baby to totally wake up during diaper changes.
Stacey F.
Love the material and overall look of the Zen swaddle sack. BUT I must say that it does not hold up to my standards. My little one is able to wiggle himself out of the sack, no matter how tight I pull the swaddle. I feel as though the material is to stretchy. Hoping it will work better once we are out of the swaddling phase.
Amarpreet K.
My daughter has started sleeping at a stretch of 4-5 hours a night since using the swaddle!
Michelle M.
Babies slept more soundly during naps and at night and woke up more rested and happy
Mark F.
Son didn’t sleep well in your product
erica f.
Love that baby can grow with the swaddle.
Ivy L.
Great quality. Baby sleeps well in it.
Liz S.
This swaddle is actually amazing. My 7 week old has been fussy when in other swaddles, and when she used to wake up, that was the end of that nap, no matter how short.
I put her in the Classic Zen Swaddle this evening.. she has been sleeping soundly since! Woke up for her feeds and then straight back to sleep (which was desperately needed after a restless morning/afternoon). I would definitely recommend this swaddle to any Momma who has a baby that struggles to fall and stay asleep.
Brittany s.
My daughter actually can sleep soundly! She has a terribly strong startle reflex so this has helped immensely ❤️ We’re getting much more sleep in this house now !
Caitlin D.
Unfortunately this did nothing for us. We’ve been using it for over 2 weeks and my almost 9 week old is still waking up every hour or so. Was really hoping this was our answer to at least a 3 hour stretch :(
Kathryn K.
Our baby constantly wriggles out of the bottom part of the Nested Bean through the night. So while it’s on properly, it’s great. But it doesn’t stay fitted as designed with our little squirmy one.
Jaydene W.
Didn’t work for my son. Can I return?
Kaitlin B.
I found the swaddle sack nearly impossible to get tight enough that my 6 week old would still manage to get her hands out of the swaddle and up around her face. In turn waking her self up. Would also be great to have a zipper in the bottom like the sleep sack does for more convenient night time changes. After a week of giving it a chance I unfortunately stopped using it due to fear that the swaddle was to close to her face.
CAROLYN F.
This item arrived quickly and was beautifully made. I was hoping it would make more of a difference with our son but things are about the same. Lovely swaddle though. I love the material and he’s very cozy in it.
Elisabeth W.
We absolutely love this swaddle. It took maybe 2-3 nights for our daughter to get used to it and ever since she has been easier to put to sleep and then actually stays asleep through the night. Already planning to get the sleep sack and footie next for when she transitions out of the swaddle! LOVE!
Patti D.
Great quality fabric. The weighted pieces do seem to hold some sort of sleep magic in them. My baby unfortunately can pull the fabric up over her face, despite us pulling it as tight as we can. I use this only for daytime naps when I can see her in the monitor. The leg portion is a bit short I find (the longest leg portion).
Debbie Ann B.
Has not made any difference in sleep pattern
Catherine S.
This is such great quality - the material is so soft and comfortable! I love how it is weighted both on the chest and at baby’s sides, so it’s like they’re being held close. My baby started sleeping longer stretches at night once we started using this - I highly recommend! Plus the puffins are super cute :)
Kohlman Z.
Didnt really make a difference in sleep quality
Jeanie R.
Little baby loves it, so comfy, warm, he sleeps well with it
Jeanie R.
Great confort great materiel baby loves it
Mariee D.
I sent it to my niece in Australia for her baby who is almost Nine months first night went to sleep right way
Bev R.
Have not opened this item yet, as it is a gift!!
Victoria B.
My two month-old granddaughter has slept through the night (5-7 hours) since I bought this swaddle for her about 6 weeks ago. My daughter puts her down awake in her crib, puts on her white noise machine and baby babbles to herself for a few minutes before falling asleep. My only lament is that I didn't buy two, so they could be switched out easier on wash day, but that's okay as I'll make sure to buy a couple of the bigger ones in a month or so. I highly recommend this product.
Samantha D.
The zen swaddle is absolutely great. The only thing I would change on it would be I’d put a zipper on the sac part for easy diaper change. It’s a bit annoying having to unswaddle mid feed when baby is half a sleep to change a poop diaper that happens during a feed. Baby tends it wake up fully when I have to unswaddle him to change.
Nicole W.
The weighted areas on the swaddle really help. However the swaddle material stretches out making it easy for baby to get loose. This is disappointing and somewhat defeats the purpose.
Vanessa H.
My baby has always been very good at sleeping but since he started using the swaddle he went from sleeping 5 hours to do 8-9 hours in a row at only 2 months!! Wonderful product, highly recommended!
Tiffanie S.
My son is 3 months old. He ordered this when he was 2 and a half months old. He went from sleeping 4 to 6 hours in his halo swaddle to 9 to 11 hour stretches in the zen swaddle. I absolutely love this product!
Dallas L.
Since we started using the swaddle, my son has been sleeping an extra hour!
Kristina J.
It’s a nice fabric, but hasn’t really improved sleep much. We’ll definitely keep trying. Our son has been able to break out of it already. Looking forward to trying the sleep sack vs the swaddle!
Alisha M.
Was gifted a swaddle and my baby had a better sleep that night! Had to purchase a few for gifts! Love gifting items I have loved

Jonathan S.
Our son was having a tough time sleeping at night and we were told about the zen swaddle so on a whim we bought it. This thing is amazing, my only regret is not buying two!
Shannon K.
I purchased this for our second daughter shortly after she was born. Like her sister before her she would struggle to be free of a regular swaddle. While the design looks great, I feel that it really made no difference in the sleep of our daughter, as her sleep patterns have completely followed her sister's, who did not have this product. She also figured out how to "escape" quite early (around 5.5 weeks) with one hand pushing up and coming out the top and one going down and coming out the bottom no matter what, or who puts her in. Her efforts pull the velcro strips off of the back. Either she is ridiculously strong for a baby, or the product does not hold up as well as the price tag would suggest it should. At 8 weeks she has also almost reached the limit of length when stretched out completely. I had high hopes for this product, but honestly I am slightly disappointed and do not feel it lived up to the hype.
Michael P.
My 1 month old loves this and so do we.Has made a difference in her sleep and has been the best swaddle we’ve tried!
Carla G.
This swaddle is great. After we started using it my kid sleep at least 4 hours longer. I now get these swaddles as baby shower gifts.
Mary Lynne T.
Bought as a baby shower gift. Baby not born yet.
Julia S.
Bought this for my 3-week old who was having a hard time sleeping and was awake every 1.5-2hrs. Have not felt the sleep sack has worked. He is a growing little man and went from 7.12 to almost 12lbs in a month so I think that is why he is up more. He eats a lot. I am finally now getting 3he stretches at night and he is 5-weeks. He is still in the sleep sack as it is nice material and seems cozy. Will keep trying but I think for him he wakes because he needs to eat.
Heather Q.
Baby was able to get arms out of the swaddle and kick down the weighted part but is fine with other swaddles like the swaddle me. I wouldn’t spend this type of money for it to not work.
Zainab Y.
Great swaddle made a huge difference to my daughter's sleep. Only thing is the swaddle is small and won't last beyond 3 months ..not enough room (I have an average sized baby). I would love to have a swaddle I could use up to 5-6 months.
Jade D.
I still try it every night but it doesn’t seem to help her. Any tips would be helpful!
Diana Y.
I didn't see any improvement with my baby's naps after using this swaddle. I continued anyway because I loved the material and it's not that much more expensive compared to other swaddled available on the market.
Unfortunately the velcro loses its effectiveness after two or three weeks. I contacted customer service and they were nice enough to send me a new one seeing the first one was probably a bad batch. I still don't think that the velcros are great compared to other swaddles.
The swaddle shouldbe good for babies up to 6 months however it doesn't work for my son anymore because he is able to get out of it so easily and kick-off the middle flap. (He's 13 pounds) I don't recommend this bottle as now I have to look for a new one.
Victoria L.
I hate to give a bad review, I was soo looking forward to using the product with my 5 week old who loves to be held and comforted with a hand on his chest. Unfortunately, he did not like the sleep sac and it didn't make a difference in his sleep.
Emily G.
We saw no sleep improvements.
Amanda M.
My baby didn’t like it and didn’t sleep any better with it. She likes swaddles but not this one it didn’t do anything for us like was advertised on the box and website. Disappointed :(
Gillian B.
Bought this for our newborn who would not sleep on her back for more than 10 minutes. Now we can get some rest knowing she is safe in the bassinet beside us. She is still too young to be sleeping long stretches but I am optimistic!
Shannon D.
Since getting the zen sleep sack my baby has been noticeably sleeping better!
Heather D.
Doesn't help him sleep better at all. He moves around alot in his sleep and the weighted part ends up sliding down to his waist. Won't be recommending this product to my friends. Felt like a waste of money.
Liz T.
I was very excited when I ordered this product and impressed right away by the quality of the material, etc. However, it did not help my 7 week baby boy sleep any longer than he had been (which is only 2hours a time at night). I will try again when he is older...but was obviously hoping it would help now!
Lindsey H.
I like it
Haven’t really noticed a difference but do like how tight I can wrap him
I wish the the sack attached at the shoulders so it doesn’t fall down when I unwrap feed and burp
Nora C.
The swaddle is wonderful. Love the cotton fabric. Our grandson slept really well. The only problem was when we had to change his diaper in the night. There is no zipper or access from the bottom of the swaddle, so we had to open the velcro. The loud noise startled him and completely woke him up.
I bought a white zipper and sewed it along the bottom seam so there now is access for diaper changes.
Adding a bottom zipper, or a zipper perpendicular to the bottom up the front would be a big improvement.
I will be buying him the sleep sac when he is a little older.
Benjamin O.
game changer when sleep training a young one
Jaimie H.
This didn’t work for my son - he was able to wiggle out and when we did get his arms in it was way to tight and he lost it. For diaper changes you have to unwrap the whole swaddle including the Velcro which is loud and wakes baby. For return I had to pay which is very unfortunate since most places now pay for return postage. Not only that I had to send it back to a warehouse in the states but it came from Mississauaga?? Very disappointed as it was more expensive to return - I should have just kept it and tried to sell it. I won’t be recommending and if someone wants to purchase will advise of bad return policy.
Tatianna G.
I really wish I could say this swaddle gave us better naps and stretches of night sleeps but after using it consistently for over two weeks it hasn’t made a difference with my little guy. It is still being used anyways, it’s cute and easy to wrap around him!
Lauren F.
We love the Zen swaddle. The material feels lovely, and our bub settles as soon as we wrap her up. She has learned to self settle since we've started using it, and will sleep for 6h+ stretches. She is 4months now, so we will be transitioning to the sack soon. I wish there was a sack option with sleeves, as her little hands get cold when not covered.
Anh L.
I am happy with the product. I like the quality of the cotton. However, it does not help my LO’s sleep to improve much and he could let his both arms out from the swaddle.
Kimm S.
I think overall the product is well made and is easy to use. I don’t think it helped my daughter sleep better though - sometimes it even made her more upset but she could be one of those babies who don’t like to be swaddled.
Kate L.
The fabric is nice and it’s easy to use but her leg hooks into the opening and gets out so we find her with hollering with one let exposed. I’m also not really convinced it works!
MARK K.
Excellent product.
