FAQ
Everything you need to know
Find answers to common questions to make the most of your new product.
Is the playpen aesthetically pleasing?
Yes, indeed! Customers have been delighted with the playpen's appearance and functionality. Its attractive design adds a touch of style to any room while keeping your baby safe.
What age range and room-fit is it designed for?
Designed for children from about6 months up to 2 years(depending on size and use), the 24″-high structure gives toddlers room to pull up and explore safely. With multiple panel sizes, you can fit it into a condo corner or larger family space alike.
What is the material, and is it environmentally friendly and safe?
Absolutely. The Grovi playpen is crafted from responsibly-sourced New Zealand pinewood (FSC® MIX certified), finished without harmful paints/coatings and designed with smooth, rounded edges. It’s tested to meet ASTM & CPC safety standards—so you get natural beauty and peace of mind.
Are there any glues or adhesives used in this playpen?
Our playpen is designed without glues or adhesives in most parts. Some small joints may use a mixture of glue and wood powder, but the parts accessible to your baby are glue-free. Our playpen comes with suction cups at the bottom, which will help secure it to the floor.
What does FSC® MIX mean?
It means at least 70% of the wood comes from FSC®-certified forests, with the rest from controlled sources, ensuring responsible forestry practices.
Can I resize or expand the playpen to fit my home space?
Yes! The playpen is modular and fully customizable. It comes in four preset sizes—from about 43.3″×43.3″ to 71.5″×79.5″—but you can remove panels to fit smaller spaces or connect two sets together for a larger layout.
If your living space is compact (such as a condo or bungalow), you can shape it into a snug corner or smaller square. For families needing more room, simply add panels and connectors to expand the area.
Please note: each connector slightly increases the total dimension (about 0.5 cm per joint), so the final size may differ a bit from the panel measurements.
When expanded to a wider layout, the center area is not directly supported by the frame, which may make the structure slightly more flexible—but still stable for normal use.
Extra connectors are available for purchase, and our team can guide you with setup or layout planning.
Why is the Grovi playpen priced higher than the cheaper plastic or mesh versions?
Because with Grovi you’re investing in something built to last and designed to beautifully fit your home—not just a fence you’ll outgrow in six months. We use responsibly-sourced New Zealand pine, finished without harmful paints or coatings, and the set is modular & expandable so it adapts from infant to toddler years and beyond.
For Canadian families in condos or bungalows who value simplicity and style, consider it a smart, long-term buy rather than a short-term stop-gap.
Does the Grovi playpen create a “Yes Space” for my baby?
Absolutely — that’s exactly what it’s made for.
A Yes Space (sometimes called a Yes Place) is a safe area where everything inside is okay for your baby to touch, explore, and move around freely — no constant “No, don’t touch that!” from parents.
Grovi is built to help you create that kind of positive, confidence-building environment.
With its non-toxic solid pinewood, baby-safe spacing, and sturdy non-slip base, it gives your little one a space that’s truly safe to explore.
And because it looks calm and natural, it blends into your home instead of feeling like a cage or barrier.
In other words — Grovi turns your living room corner into a cozy Yes Zone, where your baby can play, discover, and grow happily while you finally get to sip that cup of coffee in peace.
We have pets and a small condo — is Grovi really safe and comfy for both baby and our furry friend?
Absolutely. Grovi’s solid pine wood construction is chew-friendly and non-toxic even if baby tests it. For homes with pets, we recommend pairing it with a thicker play mat underneath (to protect paws and reduce noise). Since pets often share the zone too, the modular design allows you to configure a pet-friendly border and still keep baby in a safe “yes” zone for play.
Is it stable and safe—especially if my baby pulls up or we have smooth floors?
The playpen is designed to be stable and secure, providing a safe environment for your little one. However, it is worth noting that if your baby is actively pulling themselves up or pushing against the sides, they may be able to move the playpen slightly. To enhance stability, here are a few tips:
Ensure the playpen is properly assembled and all connectors are securely in place.
Place the playpen against a wall or in a corner to provide additional support.
If you have hard floors, placing a non-slip mat or rug underneath the playpen can offer extra grip and prevent sliding.
Always supervise your baby while they are in the playpen to ensure their safety and provide guidance as needed. By following these suggestions, you can create a stable play area for your little one.
We already have a premium play-mat (e.g., Ofie Mat) or pets around—will Grovi work for us?
Yes indeed. With its flexible panel sizing you can match the footprint of mats like the Little Bot Ofie Mat. For homes with pets or hard floors, we recommend a thicker mat underneath for extra comfort and stability. It’s baby-safe and pet-friendly.
How easy is it to set up, fold away or move?
The Grovi playpen is designed for flexible use and secure stability, which means setup is quick — but folding requires one extra step for safety.
It can be disassembled and folded for storage or transport, but you’ll need to detach the connectors first. This design ensures that every panel locks firmly in place during daily use, maintaining the playpen’s sturdiness and child safety.
While it takes a few more minutes to disassemble, this structure is what allows Grovi to offer truly customizable shapes and layouts that simpler, fixed playpens can’t provide.
Once the connectors are released, the panels fold flat for compact storage or easy transport between rooms or homes.
What are the dimensions and weight capacity of the playpen?
The playpen comes in four sizes:
43.3 x 43.3 x 24 inches, weighing 16.7 pounds.
57*57*24 inches, weighing 19.66 pounds.
60x71.5x24 inches, weighing 20 pounds.
71.5x79.5x24 inches, weighing 26 pounds. Each playpen can hold up to a weight capacity suitable for children from 6 months to 6 years of age.
Since the playpen material is safe and non-toxic,can my baby chew on it?
Yes, it is safe even if your baby chews on it.
The Grovi playpen is made from non-toxic New Zealand pine and has passed ASTM and CPC safety standards. The smooth, straight bars are designed to protect delicate gums and avoid the risks that come with uneven or wavy surfaces.
However, while occasional light teething is safe, the rails are not meant for long-term chewing.
For teething discomfort, we recommend guiding your baby to use a teething toy instead, as it is safer and more effective for their gums — and helps protect the playpen’s finish as well.
Always supervise your baby during use to ensure safety.
What is the spacing between the slats of the playpen, and how high is the playpen itself?
The space between the bottom of the playpen and the floor is 2.85 inches, which allows for easy cleaning and visibility outside of the playpen for the child. As for the spacing between the individual slats, they are designed to be close enough to keep your child safe and prevent them from sticking their head or limbs through, in compliance with safety standards.
What should I do if the playpen has splinters or a rough wooden spot?
Minor imperfections or splinters on the wooden slats can be easily smoothed with fine-grit sandpaper without affecting the functionality of the playpen. If it doesn't work, please cover the affected area with thick tape to ensure safety until the issue is resolved. Then, reach out to us so we can follow up and handle it for you.
How can I ensure the playpen stays in place on smooth flooring?
To ensure the playpen stays securely in place on smooth flooring, we recommend using the included suction cups for added grip. Make sure the floor is clean and dry before attaching the suction cups to prevent any slippage. For enhanced stability, you can also place a large, non-slip rug or foam play mat underneath the playpen. These items add friction and reduce movement, providing a safer play area for your child. It's a practical solution that also offers additional cushioning for your little one's play space.
Is the playpen spacious enough for interactive playtime with my baby?
Yes, indeed! The playpen is large enough for parents to enter and join their kids, creating a fun and engaging space for everyone to enjoy together. It provides ample room for playtime activities and ensures a great time for both kids and parents.
How stable is the playpen on different floors?
The playpen uses suction cups for smooth floors and secure connectors for strong structure.
To improve stability:
Place it on a flat surface or in a corner.
Add a non-slip mat or rug for better traction.
Ensure all connectors are locked before use.
Minor movement may occur if your baby pushes or pulls, which is normal for safety-compliant playpens.
My playpen is making noises. Should I be concerned?
These sounds are often normal, a natural characteristic of solid wood. As a living material, wood responds to environmental changes and adjusts to the stress of movement, which can produce mild, harmless noises. This is a sign of the material's strength and integrity, not a defect.
However, for your peace of mind, you can ensure all connectors are tightened according to the instructions and check that the playpen is on a level surface. Or placing a non-slip mat underneath the playpen will easily solve the problem.
If the noise is loud or persistent, please contact our support team.
What safety precautions should I keep in mind when using a playpen?
Here are some guidelines:
Always supervise your child while in the playpen.
Remove large toys or cushions when baby starts pulling up, to avoid climbing hazards.
Use only the mat or padding that fits snugly—avoid soft bedding or extra cushions which can raise risk of suffocation.
Place the playpen away from stairs, heaters or windows with cords.
Ensure the frame is properly assembled and locked before use.
What about cleaning, maintenance and minor wear?
Simple. Wipe down with a damp cloth (avoid alcohol-based cleaners). The pinewood finish is smooth and splinter-free. For small scuffs, you can gently sand and treat with a child-safe finish. Regular checks of connectors and suction cups help keep it safe and stable.
Can the Harppa Baby Gate Playpen be used outdoors?
The playpen is designed mainly for indoor use but can be utilized outdoors in a safe and shaded area. Be cautious not to expose it to damp conditions to prevent any damage to the wood.
Can I paint or stain the playpen to match my home decor?
The playpen's New Zealand pine is untreated to ensure it's safe for children. While you can paint or stain it, we recommend using only child-safe, non-toxic products. Perform a patch test on a small area to ensure the wood responds well to the treatment.
What can we do with the playpen when my child outgrows it?
Grovi grows with your family.
Once your baby outgrows it, transform it into areading nook, toy corner, or pet zone—it stays part of your home rather than being stored away.
Older kids can enjoy sensory play, music time, or creative exploration within the same cozy setup.
Does the playpen come with a warranty or replacement service?
Yes! Every Grovi Playpen includes a 24-month warranty.
If you receive a damaged part or encounter adhesive or gate issues, contact care@harppababy.com with your order number, photos, batch label, and address.
We’ll send replacement parts promptly—so your playpen keeps serving your family safely for years.

Overall rating: 4.6 / 5 from 966 reviews.
High quality gate that is super easy to set up. The customer service is also fantastic. Very responsive and helpful (shout out Yuri!). They helped me figure out the perfect configuration to fit my mat.
I hope they create their own mat in the future and sell as a package
The playpen works quite well. I tried it with the suction cups on a laminate floor but it didn't keep the suction. That's disappointing because our one year old grandson figured out how to push the playpen around pretty quickly to get stuff that's outside of it. Overall it's well built and easy to set up and take apart.
We love our new playpen! It’s big enough for the baby to move around and hold all of the toys in one place, but compact enough to fit nicely in our living room. It’s sturdy and the door is easy to open. It took 20 min to build and was really easy. I highly recommend.
We love this playpen! The size is great, it fits aesthetically a lot better into our home than a fabric one, and it was super easy to set up. I also like that you can configure it in many different ways, helps when you need to set it up at the grandparents.
Smooth wood, easy to put together. Love that the booklet has different configuration options! I haven't used it much yet but it seems like the wooden dowels could be stronger and the door is a little hard to open and close very quickly. The more I use it the better I get at it. Definitely different than a plastic playpen option but I feel good knowing I have better materials for the kiddos.
I don’t do reviews but I had to for this one, it’s a game changer. My son absolutely loves this! He started crawling and slowly standing up, all thanks to him having his own little safe space. He enjoys his independent play & I finally get some time to get things done around the house.
Very happy with Harppa playpen I purchased to keep at my house for my grandchildrens. The suction cups does make a huge difference to secure it to ground.
This playpen is perfect for our 9 month old! It keeps him safe and gives him lots of room to play. It was easy to put together and stays up well, even when he pulls up or hangs on it. I wish the gate latch was a little better made, especially for the price but otherwise we’re loving the playpen.
Love love love!!!! So easy to set up, and I love how we are able to pick so many different shapes to create. I have the Ourson Canada play mat which works well with this. I also got a click together smaller mat to fill in the end under the ball pit. I decided to build my play pen as the 110x40” size as this made enough room for our couch on other size and walk way! The baby gets to play next to the front bay window so it’s perfect. This is my 4th baby we never had anything available like this for other kids. I’m so pleased this was available for us. We got preorder for largest size as it was out of stock and it was worth the wait !!!!!! Don’t think just buy 😊
I'm speaking as a parent of a baby and a toddler. If you only had a newborn/baby, I think this product is a great buy. Looks great, is very minimalistic, which is nice if you have a certain style.
If you are bringing it in for your baby, and you already have a toddler, know that the construction is quite flimsy and can be easily broken by your toddler, especially for the price that you pay.
Hope this is helpful!
The quality is not as expected for this price. The holes are not drilled correctly, they dont align. There is no way to install the door screws which the latch is in. Its like assembling ikea furnature. Very disappointed.
It’s easy to put together but not very sturdy . It bends at the connecting parts. Disclaimer it is placed on a rug without the suction cups. I haven’t tried them on a wooden floor. I would hope that they are much more sturdy that way but don’t know yet. So I would not recommend for a rug placement if kiddo is standing up and holding on to the bars. Customer service was beyond incredible when I had an issue with delivery.
The playpen allows our baby to have a safe space to play. It’s her favourite place to nap. We as a family spend more time together in the playpen than we do anywhere else in our home. This has been one of the best purchases we’ve had for our baby (and our family).
This play pen is pretty good. I love how big it is, and that I could adjust the shape. It was super easy to assemble, and baby seems happy inside the fence. It works well on top of my rug. I have four instead of five stars because of the gate latch- it’s too difficult, with a tiny button to press to latch and unlatch while sliding a plastic piece. I feel like I’ll just use the bottom latch most of the time, but that can be pushed open.
