I actually just bought the Omlet playpen. I got it 20% off (first order) so it evened out to about $100. It was pricy, but it it pretty nice! I haven't tested it out yet, so I'll update you when I've tried it :) I'd like to hear how it goes, I usually use the fabric ones with varying success. I alw...
