Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description
This playard from North States is a great choice for parents who spend time outside and need to keep an eye on baby while gardening or enjoying the sunset. The weather-resistant plastic allows it to stand up to Mother Nature and most toddlers up to the age of 2.

folds up easily
North States' playard folds up easily for convenient portability.
But it's not only meant for outdoor use. It can just as easily be set up inside--for a few hours of entertainment while at the grandparents' or permanently at home base. Once the six interlocking panels are connected, the size-adjustable device boasts 18.5 square feet of protective play room. If you decide to purchase the 2-panel extension kit (sold separately), this can increase to 34 square feet. Imagine the possibilities!

Other benefits are that the playard is durable and lightweight for easy portability (a carrying strap is even included), it is easy to clean, and it offers quick access to baby. Should you want to prevent baby from getting into something not meant for them, you can also reverse the playard's setup. For instance, placing it around the Christmas tree or outdoor plants can keep children away from trouble. The Superyard is certified by the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA), assuring you that it's safe for your little ones.

Customer Reviews

Great for children and for climbers too.5
My twins are one year old. After reading mixed reviews (and many of good ones from dog owners), I was not sure if this play yard was appropriate for children, but I could not find an affordable alternative, so I went ahead and purchased it. Now I have to say, I am very pleased with it. It is very sturdy and with textured mats underneath it is very hard for babies to move it around. It is perfect height as my babies cannot climb out of it (one of my boys already attempted, but was not able to, thanks to diamond shape openings) but I can climb in and out without much effort. It is large enough for twins, even without the extension panels. And, to my surprise, I like how it looks (I would prefer colored panels and was considering Little Playzone for this reason, but realized it has many problems - small parts to choke on, small size without extensions, more expensive). With colorful mats and toys inside it looks like a nice playpen for children. I am glad I bought it and highly recommend if you are not sure.

Great price for a solid play yard5
I bought this play yard for my puppy to hang out in. It is good sized and easy to put together. Also, this is the cheapest price I saw for this play pen, and I looked on multiple sites. Its also adjustable so I could use 4 panels (to make a square play yard) or 6 panels.

DANGEROUS!! PLASTIC SHARDS!! CHOKING HAZARD!!1
I personally didn't buy this gate, specifically because of the alarming number of reviews I found online about plastic shards breaking off of it. The following are only two of MANY reviews I found:

"Buyer Beware. We had two different gates sent to us. The initial one was missing a part. The second one had little pieces that were falling off of it the size of a piece of rice and sharper then you can imagine. We found this out because our nine month old was gagging on a piece - then investigated and found two other pieces on the floor. We took the part we needed out of the new gate and put it in the first one we received. We looked, and though that one looked okay. Last night I found two pieces that had broken off on the floor, thankfully before my son did. This happened to us twice - not a coincidence. I have talked to guest relations and they are putting out a product recall. This could have been a FATAL situation with our son!"

"DO NOT BUY THIS! I CAN'T BELIEVE I ORDERED THIS! Even after seeing one review that said they found dangerous shards of the product on the floor, their child had choked on these pieces. I just recieved the product and looked it over, it looked fine, set it up and put my 7 month old in it. He cried a bit so I climbed in...that is when I found some small rice sized VERY SHARP! pieces of the gate that had fallen off from it . I can't figure out where they came from. I assumed the other review must be a fluke or that the problem was fixed as they said the company was suposed to put a recall. I called the company to complain and they said they had never heard of the problem, and only offered to send a replacement gate. If a small child swallowed one of these incredibly sharp pieces it has the potential to be fatal!! DO NOT BUY!!!!!"

In short, the product should probably be recalled. Do not put your children at risk!!
