old Pack n play - settle a debate

If you had a hand me down that was used on 2 kids 10+ years ago... then not very often used on your kids at a relatives house...

would you still use it if it looked good

or would you be concerned about all the old pee accidents, and spend the $50 to get a new basic one?

Are kids usually in them still when potty training? I'm sure mine has some drool and maybe milk from bottled that leaked but no pee pee. But for $50 if you are concerned I'd just buy new.

I barely had my kids in th P&P.
I'd use the old one.
I have used them as cribs in hotels.
IMO, it's extra $ for nothing.

I would definitely buy a new one. Ten years is a long time and who knows if there were any recalls.

I'd buy a new one. Like you said, you can probably get a no frills one for around $50. It's really not that much money for peace of mind.

Can google for recall (mine is now 6 yrs old & No issues).

We clean with clorox wipes. Most of it is waterproof & cleans really easily.

If the mattress doesn't have any tears in it then I would just clean it and use it. You can buy a new sheet for it. If it was something that I planned to use all the time I might consider a new one but if it's just for occasional use then I would just use it again.
