I have an Emmaljunga so the bassinette attachment is quite big, infact it was almost as big as the cradle we also had at the time... i used the same linen in them!
I can't remember exactly but I think it was well over 6 months. But we also used it inside the house to rock our boys to sleep in as they found it so comfortable. I also liked how i could gently move them around the house while they slept... if they fell asleep next to me at the computer I could then wheel them into their bedroom without them waking up. I also loved how if they fell asleep in it whilst out at the shops I could just walk home, wheel it inside and into the bedroom and draw the blinds and get on with something. I don't drive but I could imagine lifting them in and out of cars all the time would have meant more disturbed sleeps. With the bassinette I could leave home, hop on a train, do the shopping, come home and 9/10 they would have had a deep sleep at some stage undisturbed.
But the Emmalunga isn't for everyone... it's big and heavy and no good if you use a car daily. I'm not sure what other basinette prams are like.
