Product description
The submitted sample is Graco's "Pack-n-Play" combination playpen carrier/storage bag, which is specially shaped and designed to carry and cover the "Pack-n-Play Yard", a portable, collapsible playpen. The playpen carrier/storage bag is comprised of nylon/poly-cotton or polyester fabric, plastic zippers and metal snaps. It is used to cover, protect and transport the playpen. This is accomplished by placing the folded playpen inside the playpen carrier and inserting the playpen's carrying handle through a slot in the top of the bag. This allows the playpen to be carried about while being covered and protected by the specially shaped bag. The article can also be used as a storage unit by removing the playpen from the bag's main compartment and attaching it to the end of the playpen when in use. It features five external pockets for storing infant supplies such as diapers, bottles, etc. The playpen carrier/storage bag will be imported as a finished article separately, or together with the unassembled Pack-n-Play Yard. Your sample and photograph are being returned as requested.
