When your baby starts moving, they need a safe place to play. Our experts lab test and review child playpens of all materials to help you find one that’ll give you peace of mind.

Our testers assess:

  • whether the playpens pass key safety requirements, such as lack of footholds and strangulation hazards
  • ease of assembly and operation
  • whether the playpens pose limb or head entrapment risks.

 

In the absence of an Australian standard for playpens, we use international standards and in-house CHOICE methods (based on existing standards for things like cots) to test playpens. Some models may be worth considering if they only have minor hazards, while others may pose more serious risks.
