Nice design - but fabric not soft This is such a cute design, but when I got the actual set, I was disappointed with the quality of the sheets...they did say they were a poly/cotton blend, but they are not that soft. It got better once we washed the sheet, but had I known, I would not have ordered this set since my kid likes soft material.

Great, practical bag, and good for my husband too i really think this is a cool well thought out bag - it's extremely functional and looks very urban and cool.

Thrilled with purchase .. but note that price fluctuates a lot & quality can vary from skin to skin I am thrilled with this purchase. It seems like a very high quality item and has very soft pile, about 1.25" thick. Baby loves it and just seems so comfortable on it. I primarily use it during playtime, when he's awake. Before he could roll over I also used it for naptime as well, but now that he's older I'm just using it when he's awake (since research/recommendations are mixed, due to potential risk of baby rolling over and rebreathing air in the sheepskin .. and I just didn't feel comfortable taking the risk). Still very worthwhile - provides a great surface for play, and also for changing clothing, etc. Baby can definitely go longer periods of time playing on his own without fussing when lying on this sheepskin.Note that because these items are one-of-a-kind (actual animal skins), the shape, color, density, and quality can vary quite a lot from skin to skin. Due to price drops, I ended up buying this item three different times, and some of the skins were a lot thicker/plusher than others. I was really glad in the end that I ordered multiple items because I was able to keep the best one and return the others. I'm sure the seller will hate me for recommending that, but if the item your receive does not live up to your expectations based on the other reviews, you might be happy if you were to reorder.PS: I mentioned that I reordered due to price drops. The price fluctuates on this item quite a lot, typically between $55 and $90, see below link for price history on camelcamelcamel dot com. If your need is not urgent, you can put a price watch on it, and pull the trigger when the price is at the lower end. That'll save you the pain I had of seeing it available later for a lower price![...]PPS: I was so pleased with this item that I actually bought the BowronLambskin Strollerfleece Coveras well. (Some people indicated in their reviews that they used this same item being reviewed here in the carseat/stroller as well, but in my opinion it's too large/heavy, and I wanted something that was specifically designed to accommodate the straps.) I don't use it in the carseat (since it's not supposed to be safe to put anything between baby and carseat that could compress in a crash), but I absolutely LOVE it for the stroller - keeps baby's back from getting sweaty like it used to, and I'm sure it's a lot more comfy to boot. I'm surprised that more people who buy this item don't buy the companion Strollerfleece as well.

leaks We received this tub as a shower gift off our registry. At first we were dazzled with it's compactness. After assembling it correctly I noticed that the tub leaks. My husband an accomplished pediatrician thoroughly examined the tub, he had 2 comments, 1. The blue seal material is either not 100% waterproof , or it is not extended to the edges and up. 2.The mechanism of opening and sealing it, is too cumbersome. new parents need all the time they have, baby products need to be efficient and simple, this one is not. using it in the shower solves the leak issue!

Not for my child I bought the Lamaze Spin & Explore for my daughtet, when it got to my home I opened it and set it up which was really easy. When it was all put together it didn't look like something I wanted to put my daughter on. I was afraid it was going to tip over. It didn't look like it would suppport her. If she wasn't on it just right it looked like it would tip over. I returned it.

Unpredictable and broken As the other reviewers have said, it is a hit or miss on the temperature with this warmer. I have to check half way through the warming process and sometimes it is already finished. I bought my bottle warmer a month ago and it has already broken.

Safe for checking a stroller We put the umbrella stroller into this bag and checked it - the stroller survived under the plane without a scratch. You can also load the bag up with toys/blankets/diapers/other bulky kid things that take up suitcase space; if you're flying from winter to a warm location you can also stuff in everyone's coats. Pair this with the GoGo Kidz Travelmate and you can go anywhere with maximum toddler-conveyance flexibility and minimal hassle.

Not a Fan! I have been using Pampers Cruisers and wanted to try Baby Dry to see how they worked. They are fine for during the day but horrible for at night. My little girl woke up cold due to her diaper didn't hold in what it should have overnight which made her onesie soaked in the morning. Will NOT buy anymore Baby Dry...Wondering if maybe I can exchange????

Doesn't fit I ordered this because of the good reviews, but it doesn't work for us. First it took almost 2 weeks to arrive, which has nothing to do with the product but was especially frustrating since I'm now returning it. It doesn't fit our island or dining room table. The arms are really long, requiring a pretty deep space. It's also much more cumbersome than expected. I thought we'd just fold it up and take it out to dinner with us, but it doesn't collapse very small. We didn't use it to actually feed the baby since it didn't work in our kitchen, but I could tell the space between the counter and the baby was too wide and we would end up with more food on the floor than anywhere else.It does seem like a solid design, so if it works in your kitchen then it's probably a good purchase.

one major flaw While this bag does have relatively good insulating ability, it's not worth the hassle of the zipper (as mentioned in previous review). I, too, have been through a couple of these bags because the zipper pull keeps breaking off. What you're left with is just the part that moves along the teeth, which can make opening and closing quite a hassle. I had our bag replaced by Skip Hop directly as I have some contacts there and did tell them about the problem. They are aware, yet they keep making these bags with zipper pulls that pull right off. Don't waste your time...find another bag.

A Great Bassinet We bought this bassinet for our baby boy. It is very easy to move from room to room, and I love the storage underneath. I did find the mattress pad too thin, but purchased a thicker one along with sheets to fit nicely. Caution on the locking of the bassinet - it doesn't seem very secure, but all in all I really love this bassinet and am looking forward to using it for our second child.

Great kids soap Great soap for kids. They can easily wash and rinse hands on their own.

Take the warning on the bottle seriously There is a warning on the bottle about severe allergic reactions to this product, yet Johnson's markets it to be "safe enough for newborns." My 3-year-old son had a gradual, but severe allergic reaction to this product that started during the night while he was sleeping - thankfully his breathing was not effected. He had hives that got so bad his joints were swollen and he had difficulty walking. The Environmental Working Group, www.ewg.org, lists this product as one of the "Top 10 Most Dangerous Baby Washes."

CRYSTAL CLEAR WITH NO INTERRUPTION I BOUGHT THIS MONITOR SO I CAN HEAR WHAT GOES ON IN MY SONS ROOM WHO IS UPSTAIRS. I HAVE CRYSTAL CLEAR RECEPTION AND I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER MONITOR IN THE HOUSE FOR ANOTHER ROOM AND THEY NEVER GET INTERRUPTED. IT IS EXTREMLY SENSITIVE, EVERY BREATH IS HEARD. AWESOME MONITOR, NO PROBLEMS YET SO FAR !!!!

Piece of Junk! This is flimsy and of poor quality. Particle board. I thought it was going to fall apart in the store when I was putting something that weighed about 10 pounds on it to test how it would hold up a baby. Don't waste your money.

Not loud enough Bought it for my 9 months old's nursery room to drown out other noises in the house in the evening. It's not loud enough at all even with the highest volume setting, so I returned it.

Terrible Sound Machine This is definitely not worth $50-at the very most $10. The sound was terribly low and you could hear every move with it on the highest level! I am very disappointed with this product and would not recommend buying it. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Only runs on Batteries and does not have white noise I didn't realize you need batteries for this, nor does it have basic white noise. The sounds it emits are not pleasant. Too electronic and static sounding.

Good for nursing and far beyond For years after I no longer needed it as a nursing stool, I have used this stool to rest my feet on while working at my computer. This allowed me to raise the height of my chair to reduce neck strain when my monitor was a little too high for comfort. The angle reduces strain on the back and makes the whole setup so comfortable. Terrific product.

Great tub for newborn My son is four weeks old and he loves to be in this tub. I like the sling which keeps him secure, it drains really nice and overall I highly recommend this product. The only future issue I see is the size of it. My baby is not big but he is long (23 inches at birth) and his feet are already getting to the end of the sling, so I am not sure how much longer we will be able to use that.

Awesome Stroller! This stroller is great because it has the one-hand steering so I can push my twins and hold my toddlers hand. I haven't seen this in another mid-price stroller. I think it only compares to the Twin Techno McClaren (it has similar price and construction- folds the same way, etc.) and outpaces it in several ways;- I think it looks much better- It is much more sturdy-feeling which gives it a more quality appearance than the McClaren- Has cup holders- The seats are much more padded and adjust to any postion not just five- The belts are much easier to use- not as flimsy and twisted up- and have more practical padding.However, this could use the shock absorbant wheels and the UV protection on the canopies to completely outpace the McClaren. It is also is a little heavy and cumbersome to fold, but I attribute this to what appears to be sturdier, better materials used to make it. The McClaren beside it just looks flimsy. It could use a snack tray too and baskets that accomodate larger diaper bags.Overall, I would strongly recommend this stroller to any parent, particularly one with more than two children, multiples or someone who walks a pet.

Not a fan My parents bought this High Chair for me upon my request. I thought it was lovely, nice and netural to match the decor in my kitchen. What I didn't realize was that there is a wooden bar, under the removable tray, that is a "permenant restraint". Since it is not adjustable, it is very difficult to get a child in and out of for feedings. There is hardly any room from the back of the chair, to the bar. I could only imagine the difficulty, and the amount of discomfort, if I kept this chair and my son grew with age. This chair is not meant for practical use. I think the only thing it is good for is decoration.

Very Little Suction I bought this pump to use at work after my maternity leave. I haven't been back to work as yet and have used the pump about 15 times in 12 weeks and the suction is gone. I pumped for about 1/2 hour on one breast that I hadn't fed my baby from and only got an ounce.

It's a great trampoline Our son really likes this trampoline. He need the proprioceptive input and this trampoline delivers. We just got it, but it appears to be very durable and came very well recommended.

This is a real nightmare! I was probably out of my mind when i decided to buy this product for my 18 mo old child. Even $12.99's strollers made better than this piece of "cheap" plastic covered by "expensive italian" fabric.1. Absolutely NO maneurability and NO Steering2. Sunshade is SO small and uncomfortable - my son was always exposed to sun and rain.3. Basket underneath is NOT durable - once you put there gallon of milk it will scratch the asphalt forever.4. Aluminium parts are NOT durable too.5. System of Restrain belts are totally unuseful - my toddler came out from this stroller for 3 seconds so when you stop at the Dunkin Donuts window to buy a coffee you should keep un eye on you child otherwise you will look for him everywhere in the street.So i wish i knew all of these before i put in trash $199. This stroller doesn't worth this money at all.

Deformed mattress I bought this rail 2 weeks ago for one of my two year old twin boys. After finally getting it put together, I had quite a bit of trouble figuring out exactly how it fit onto the bed. About a half hour later I positioned it onto the mattress, and pushed down on the rail till it "locked" into position. This worked fine for about 3 days, until the pressure from the rail caused the mattress to indent. After each passing day, the mattress grooved in more, and I had to apply more pressure to the rail to keep it "locked" in place. Needless to say, this rail went back to the store because I didn't want to ruin my mattress... Unless I terribly misunderstood the directions, this rail is not worth the time or money!!!

ICE COLD hate it! it doesn't warm up a refrigerated bottle no matter how much water you put in it. you can't lock the cooling unit into the warmer, so it's hard to carry around. forget this one!

Bad design I purchased this for my Phil & Ted's sport stroller and it's really just a bulky fanny pack not so much a drink holder. You cannot tighten this without it getting tucked under the top shade which makes it very hard to get anything out of the cup holder. If you 'hang' it from the handlebar then it'll sway alot which is really annoying. This is NOT designed for hot drinks or cups of any kind, this is strictly a water or soda bottle holder. (bottles with caps)I guess if you were to use it as a fanny pack then it would be worth the thirty bucks but I'm not at all impressed by this. I'm also a little horrified that such a trendy company would make a bag that doubles as a fanny pack. What's going on with that?!?

Good Size, Poor Design I was not impressed with this tub. As many reviewers note, the shower operation button is in a very inconvenient spot (to operate it while holding it with wet hands, you necessarily interrupt the water flow with your fingers). The tub is also leaky, and with the shower installed, my 5-week-old daughter is already hurting for legroom. Next time I'd go for a simpler, more utilitarian model.

Great bowls, especially for the price They are great for my toddler's snacks, lunches, and even sometimes for my own lunch.I've put them in the dishwasher and the food comes off easily, unlike a lot of plastics that leave residue behind. I've never microwaved them so I can't speak to how well they hold up there.They don't leak, they are durable, and cheap so if you leave one somewhere - no biggie. A great deal.

Brilliant Baby Carrier I would probably have bought a cheaper baby carrier, but the reviews on this site persuaded me to buy a Baby Bjorn. I have used it since my daughter (now 7 weeks) was born and we both love it!I was a bit concerned when I first used it that she would have trouble breathing with her forehead resting against my chest, but now she sits with her cheek on my chest, which I like better.This carrier has proved to be extremely comfortable for both of us (well I think so, and she always falls asleep straight away, so I guess that's her endorsement), and has been great during the winter as I can walk my dog with her snuggled up inside my jacket.It's also great for walking around the mall (easier than wrestling with the stroller and lighter than carrying her in her car seat) but she can get quite hot, so I don't know how practical it will be to use outside during the summer.Also excellent for doing stuff around the house (she's not a baby that likes her own space) when I need both hands free, a baby carrier has been just about the best baby thing that I've bought.

Great Diapers! I ordered these by mistake thinking they were the Swaddlers and was pleasantly surprised when they didn't leak! When I ran out I used some Swaddlers and they immediately leaked, I can't wait for my order of Baby Dry diapers to come in now, they are the best!The only thing I do like about the Swaddlers is the line that shows if the diaper is wet. Maybe they will add that to the Baby Dry diapers eventually.

So far so good. Never used the bags due to reviews of chemical funk so went with these tubes. So far so good. Had to use perm marker to date and time, but that is not an issue for us (any other marker just fades off)

looks good but is hazardous I will say this chair looks great, but that is where the good review ends. It is SO WOBBLY that my 9 month old is going to tip it over.(I saw one review by a nanny where someone actually did tip it.) She can move back and forth in the chair and shake it so much that the back legs lift off the floor. It is also a pain to clean with a giant gap in the center of the main pole that catches food. I was so afraid that I actually stuck it in the basement (really annoying at $250 but better than wondering the second you turn your back what will happen.)I now have the OXO Sprout. No movement there! Love the Sprout!

Does not work These stove knobs were highly recommended by my sister-in-law. However, as soon as we installed them, my 1 year old twins figured out how to open them. Waste of money.

The best money can buy If you are thinking about buying a plastic princess vanity, don't! I looked at many different vanities for our 3 year old daughter. I bought this one because the plastic vanities reviews claimed they were all very small. This one will last our daughter until at least 6 years old. In my opinion, this is the cutest and highest quality vanity out there. Construction is excellent, the decorations are spectacular, and it is simple to put together. She was so excited to sit in the chair and fill the jewerly boxes. The music box is an excellent touch, every little girl should have a music box. Not enough stars to express how satisfied I am with this purchase.

Not quite there! The highchair does it's basic function; the issue is with the footrest which does not tilt with the back incline and the castors on the legs are a pathetic excuse for being so as they don't function while locked!

Not as described The picture showed a lovely bassinet. Supposedly made of wood. It did not state that the bassinet itself was made of a heavy cardboard. It also stated that you could get years of use out of it. It was made so poorly that in shipping the cardboard was all smashed in... Could you imagine a child using it as a toybox? I am completely disenchanted with the article and at this moment with Target for not describing it properly. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Great Purchase I just got home from a trip with two layovers with my 1year old's Britax car seat. The Travel Bag was a lifesaver. It's a little awkward since it is so big, but it really worked well. I was able to carry the car seat everywhere much easier than any other way. We used her car seat on the flight, and the bag was easily packed and unpacked in the plane with the large Britax Seat. The bag looks like it would hold up for checked bags too, but the zipper seems a little weak. It didn't break on my trip, but I'm sure they will be the first thing to break.On another note, the majority of the air line people didn't' realize what the bag was for, and continued to push me to check or gate check it, but if you are persistent, they let you bring on to strap your child in for a flight.

You can't beat it for the price! For the price, you can't beat this glider. I read all the reviews before puchasing and decided to go ahead and give it a try. Like others have already stated, it's very easy to put together (only 8 screws). The cushions may not be the best, but it's comfortable to me and looks fine. I couldn't get my armrest cushions to snap on the outside, but in doesn't matter as I put some magazines in the pockets which weigh it down and you can't tell that it's not snapped down. Other than that, the glider is great and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I, too, am giving the glider 4 stars because of the cushions.

So happy with this gate My daughter started crawling this past week and I HAD to go out and get gates to keep her safe. I did a little research and thought this was a good gate to look into and get.I bought it (and the extension since our doorway is 37"), came home and set my husband to work.It took less than 5 minutes to install and it works SO GREAT! My 17 month old nephew came over and tried to get the gate open, but had no luck.For high traffic areas, the fact that it swings both ways is a great feature and it's nice enough that I'm not ashamed to have it up when company comes over.TOTALLY worth the money!!!!

Safety Hazard Although the design of these is to wind the cord shorter, when a window is open and blinds are drawn the cord does get longer. I left a room for 30 seconds and came back to see that my son had pulled the cord down and had it wrapped around his neck. Terrifying. Although these do pop open easily, they most definitely did not pop open from the pressure of a child's neck which I find to be a SERIOUS design flaw. From a company named Safety 1st - back to the drawing board on these!

Not worth the money We initially purchased this item as a Christmas gift for my daughter. It is very cute but very flimsy and the bar/handle would not hold the seat in a sitting position (it kept slipping). I ended up finding another doll carseat at a store and ended up giving that one to her instead. We will be returning this one.

Way to small for cloth diapers and the foot pedal is lame I bought this pail despite the reviewers who said it was too small for cloth diapers. Well, trust them, it's way to small for cloth, unless you want to wash every day. I found myself piling dirty diapers on top of it! Ew! The biggest problem is the foot pedal. Even if you're not going to use this pail for cloth diapers, the food pedal doesn't work all that well (and we had it connected correctly). Stepping on it brings the lid up about 1 inch. Not very useful. Perhaps ours was defective. Also, grocery shopping bags are too small and kitchen trash bags are too big! Save your money and get something bigger and better functioning.

slow motor, no support I thought that this would be a good swing to take on our trips or to grandma's house, but I was wrong. The seat does not offer my daughter any support for her back or neck, which makes it seem like she can't breathe. The motor is also VERY SLOW, even on the highest speed. My daughter is only 2 months old, and the average size so in my opinion the swing should go a little faster. The good thing about about the swing is that the toys are interchangable, and the fabric is somewhat intertaining. I think that one should really spend the money on a full size swing.

Portable... but unsafe!! When I got pregnant with my son (my first!), several people recommended the Snap and Go to me as being a must-have item for its portability and convenience. Being a first-time mom, I listened and purchased the Snap and Go, along with a Graco travel system. My plan was to use the infant car seat with the Snap and Go as my stroller until my son was big enough to fit into the full-size stroller. I now sincerely wish I wouldn't have wasted my money. One day, my husband and I were taking a walk with our baby... when we went over a particularly bumpy part of the sidewalk, the car seat became disconnected from the Snap and Go and flipped over the top of it, landing on the sidewalk. If my husband hadn't been holding my son in his arms, I would most likely be in a lawsuit with Graco right now. As it is, we discontinued use of the Snap and Go from that day forward and purchased an UPPAbaby Vista, which we LOVE. It was expensive, but more than worth the price of my son's safety.

Satisfied I needed a car seat that would fit in the back seats of my husband's chevy S10 and this works. Although it is better with a shoulder harness seatbelt, I am still happy with it even though it is a little loose with a lap belt. We can now all ride together in the truck without one of the adults in a back seat.

Worked for Us I don't have anything to which I can compare this, but this one did the job. I think any bottle rack would probably work well, so I recommend getting the one that costs the least. I guess the slanted feature is helpful, and the plastic spike thingys are removable. I've cleaned it in the dishwasher and it has held up well.

European flight regulations may differ. Not at lot to add to the other reviews, except that traveling in Europe I've had a hard to impossible time convincing flight attendants on European airlines to let me use it. Apparently, their regulations don't match FAA ones in that it's not allowable to use a carseat where the belt goes OVER the child like this one does. Only allowed are ones (like most standard carseats), where the belt secures to the body of the seat itself.Even so, when I was traveling alone, switching planes in Chicago and London, with a 13 month old, it was indispensible.

Expected better quality Expected better quality. The packaging was fine but the chair had many nicks and scratches that had to have been done before it left the manufacturer. I would have sent it back except I needed it for the upcoming weekend. Once it was assembled and the scratches were covered, it looked great from a distance.

Even for adults! I am 25 years old and have been trying on and off for years to master chopsticks. Or rather, to have a novice use of chopsticks in order to get through a Chinese meal without a fork. I'm a failure. So far, I'm still using the handgrasp on these chopsticks but I've only had a chance to use them once. I've been playing with them and I'm finally understanding what I've been doing wrong all these years. I hope I can improve but just so you know, these chopsticks don't have to be just for kids!EDIT: I did want to amend my review by saying that I have VERY small hands. While the idea of these chopsticks is great for kids and adults the rubber hand grip may not fit larger adult hands. I'm hoping that I can get other chopsticks to fit in place of the included ones because the ones that come with the set are very short and I think that makes them harder to use. Still better than anything I've tried so far and I made it through most of meal before giving up the first time :)

CUTE HAMPER , BUT BE CAREFUL I REALLY LIKE THE CHAMBRAY HAMPER. IT FITS A LARGE AMOUNT OF LAUNDRY AND FOLDS FOR CONVIENENCE. HOWEVER, MY ONE YEAR OLD MANAGED TO GET ONE OF THE WOOD BUTTONS OFF OF THE FLAP AND INTO TO HIS MOUTH. I BELIEVE THE BUTTONS ARE MOST LIKELY TO LARGE TO CHOKE ON BUT I STILL REMOVED BOTH OF THEM. THE HAMPER IS STILL REALLY CUTE, EVEN WITHOUT THE BUTTONS AND YOU REALLY CANNOT BEAT THAT PRICE, OVERALL I THINK ITS A GREAT DEAL.

Excellent addition to my nursery! I bought this glider / ottoman combo when I was about 6 months pregnant. I thought it would be helpful for those long nights rocking my baby to sleep and I was completely right! Not only has it been helpful with my baby but it was also very helpful during my pregnancy. After a long day when my back was hurting, it was a comfortable place to sit and relax and read a nice book. It also looks very nice in my bedroom with my black furniture. Overall - great purchase and I highly recommend!

Picture is deceiving I bought these on Amazon to use for a plane trip, and to have when taking my granddaughter with me shopping, etc.. The picture on the front of the packaging is deceiving as it implies that the pad is as long as the child, yes? They are not -- they are 19" long. Some will say: "You don't have to have the child completely on the pad" and I would agree with this statement UNLESS you ARE in an airplane or in a department store bathroom, utilising the changing table -- THEN, it is nice to have the child protected.Will use up, but not repurchase.

Perfect for newborns I would highly recommend purchasing something like this for your newborn. It is comfortable and soft and the swaddling feature helps the baby sleep much longer than if they aren't swaddled. It also stays swaddled longer than a blanket and is easier to undo/redo than using a traditional blanket.

read if you plan on using the AC adapter! Monitor itself works fine -- but not if you plan on using the AC adapter.....Fisher Price customer service recommends that the AC adapter should not be plugged into the reciever for more than 13 hours at a time or the rechargeable battery and/or unit will be damaged. In my mind that makes the product useless if you intend on using the AC adapter -- you'll have to remember to unplug it every morning or risk wrecking the thing! (the fisher price rep actually told me I'd "fry it").

Not secure on elongated toilets. I rescued my toddler from a near drop into the public bowl when he started shifting around a little on the seat. It is most definitely NOT secure on the usual public restroom seats. If you put it all the way to the back, the front two sections squeeze in towards each other and if you put it all the way to the front or in the middle, it shifts around just as much. One wiggle too much and the edge will plop into the toilet, along with your kid. :(

Nice and thick, good quality blanket This product is good quality and is nice and thick. It also feels luxurious. It keeps my baby warm and not overheated. My baby sleeps well in it in the car even during this winter season.

Very good carrier - but tough to get baby into. I like this carrier and use it for walks because it is easy on the back, but for carrying my daughter around the house to do chores I use a baby sling because I can just plop her in. Getting her into the Baby Bjorn takes some doing and can actually upset her. If you have the cash, invest in both.

Not great This is very wide. Didn't stick for more than two days and actually pulled up finish on crib. I have the Davinci Emiliy. Too wide for that. I would not buy this again.

I loved the price The price was great for my twin grandsons. After a month both babies developed a severe rash from the baby dry diapers. Other Mom's have said the same thing. Now they have switched to Huggies.

A travel "Must-Have" I'll start out by saying, yes this is a little costly. I had thought about not making the purchase due to the price, but in the end felt it would be much easier to handle our car seat while traveling. The straps are thick and padded, easing the strain on ones shoulders. It is helpful for transport from vehicle to airport, then back again. Especially when you are dealing with suitcases and children. We checked our car seat with the airline. When I received it back, there was a large hole in the bag. This was disappointing! But, thankfully I'm not buying another car seat instead. I have a Graco Nautilus 3-In-1 car seat, which I find large and bulky. So as far as size, the travel bag should fit most car seats.

Happy with it We used this machine for over 2 years in the kids' nursery and never had any issues with it. I liked that you could combine the sounds to have two at one time. Also appreciated that you could set it to stay on or set it to shut off after a while. We usually kept it on and found ourselves growing used to hearing it through the baby monitor.Whether or not the white noise actually helps the kids sleep - I have no idea. It seemed to help and if anything they associated the noise with quieting down and bed time.

the worst potty ever for boys this potty chair is the worst!!!!!!!!! Every time my son used it there was more pee on the floor then in the holder. Not only does it leak, but even worst my son being pulled down would get pee on them from the floor. Making him believe he did something wrong because I would have to change his cloths and he thougt he had an accident.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY AND WORST YET IT WILL SET YOU BACK WITH THE TRAINING BECAUSE OF THE LEAKING. MAKING YOUR CHILD AFRAID OF USING IT BECAUSE IT GOES ALL OVER THE FLOOR!!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE THIS CHAIR AND IT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In addition I wouldn't even give it one star but the review requires you to have to in order to place my review.

Not as durable as I would've liked I bought two of these for a recent trip to Hawaii based on the reviews I read about how durable this bag was. We checked-in one (which held a Graco car seat & base plus some extra blankets & other soft stuff) and carried the other one onto the plane (held a Britax Marathon). I have to say that I was very disappointed when BOTH our bags got small rips & tears (this is just after the one-way trip from California to Hawaii). I knew that the one we checked-in was going to get tossed around a bit and that tears might occur but I didn't think that would happen based on this bag's numerous good reviews. But I was certainly surprised when the one we carried onto the plane got small rips and tears too (and we DIDN'T toss it around or handle it roughly). The bag is just big enough to hold the Britax carseat with extra room for some blankets/jackets. It is a bit heavy and cumbersome to carry. Luckily the bags held together for the return trip home without the small rips getting bigger. Now I have two damaged bags that I probably won't use again for its original intended purpose. Not a complete waste of money (since we did get the car seats there and back in one piece) but I am definitely not satisfied at all with the quality.

Warp The standard breast shields that come with my FS gave me pain so that I thought I'd give these products a try!Worst experience ever! It was comfortable the first time I put them on. But then it gets more and more painful, hurt me even after the pumping. They warp only after 10 times usedI almost cried with tears the last time I used them, I do not pump more milk than normal neither

Very satisfied Mom of 3 I have been using Seventh Generation diapers for four years (continuously!) Over the past four years I have had occasion to use many other different brands of diapers, "environmentally friendly" and traditional. Seventh generation diapers are consistantly the best: the quality and effectiveness are outstanding, and I appreciate the chlorine-free (and advertising free - no characters!) aspects as well. They cost a little more, but I find the extra money well worth it. With the "subscribe and save" discount, the price is reasonable.

Worst Manufacturer and Customer Service Ever This crib is not commercial grade at all. I bought several for a new daycare we opened, collapsible helped with square footage for each classroom. Anyhow, one of the cribs was manufactured without a part to keep it from randomly flinging open on its own. Shoddy manufacturing overall anyways, but they just forgot to place a part on one of the cribs. So I called the company, since it was obviously not Amazon's fault. A very unhelpful and just generally unfriendly customer service person wanted my order, serial number number etc before he would ship me the part. So I painstakingly looked all the information up and submitted 3 weeks ago. No reply, no missing part, no answer despite my persistent asking and threatening a negative review. I would not recommend this product or anything this company manufactures to anyone.

Not worth the money This is one of the most expensive double strollers on the market. If someone had given it to me and I had not know the price, I would have thought it cost about $80. The brand stickers fell off within the first few days. The trays stopped latching properly after about 6 months. It is hard to push and feels flimsy. Also, it is extremely hard to open and close. The storage basket drags with just a little bit of weight, causing the fabric to tear. The cup holder won't hold a full cup--it will tilt down and spill all over you. Save your money!

A mommy must have! I use this bag almost daily. My daughter requires "special milk" and I can't leave the house without a bottle or 2 on me. This bag keeps 4 skinny bottles or 3 wide bottles cold all day with 2 ice packs. Large sippy cups fit too with no problem. This bag slips nicely into a purse or diaper bag. I have used it as my personal lunch bag too. My tip: get 2 of these and alternate them. My other cooler bags have gotten funky because of the condensation from the ice packs. Once it starts its really hard to get rid of. The liner of this bag is attached, but it also slides out for easy cleaning with soap and water. As soon as I'm done with one, I wash the liner and leave it inside out to dry completely before using it again. Then I use the other bag if I need to store milk again. Great value for the price!

Yes, it IS hard to open . . . for babies It does take a lot to get this lock open, but it's literally the only thing that worked in my house for more than 24 hours. Everything else was too easy to pull off.

Horrible! I won't use these again! They kept falling apart and the gel crystals went everywhere! They got all over my toddlers bed!!! I change his diaper every couple of hours, there is no way these could be used for 12 hours to keep your baby dry. I'm never buying pampers again, horrible experience with these.

I thought I wouldn't use it When I was pregnant with Baby #1, my mom wanted to buy me a glider/ottoman combo. I said no, I wouldn't need it...She wisely insisted on buying the glider and she threw in this little stool for good measure. How stupid was I? I can't imagine what I'd done without either one. I am on Baby #2 now who is quickly becoming a big boy. I have used this stool daily for the past 3 years. I am glad we didn't get the big ottoman, as it would take up too much space, but this little stool is JUST PERFECT. It makes those late night/early morning feedings just a little more comfortable. Its a purchase you will not regret!

Everything fits Everything I use -- breast pump, bottles, utensils, etc.--all fit on this drying rack. I do wish the drainage piece was a little steeper. The water pools a little at the bottom.

A very good investment I just recently traveled by plane with my 2&1/2 year old son. The car seat was way too big and bulky to carry along by myself with a back pack, stroller, and not to mention a very squirmy toddler. With the car seat bag, I checked it with our luggage. The bag is very durable and easy to carry. I highly recommend purchasing one if you have to take a car seat with you on your travels.

You will spend more on batteries!!!!!!! Overall, the Dreamscapes soother is wonderful in terms of the music/lullabies, etc. BUT, I find myself changing batteries once a week! The unit takes 4 C batteris which need to be replaced constantly. My daughter naps twice a day; I turn the unit on three times a day (before her nap and before bedtime). That's all, and enough for the unit to drain the batteries in a week! Another reviewer complained of the unit's positioning potentially hurting the baby. This is true. If the baby can sit up he/she can knock his/her head with the bottom edge.All in all, I wish I had purchased something else primarily b/c now my daugher loves the fables, music, and the little figures scrolling on the screen but I am stuck buying batteries and unscrewing the unit once a week!

They have taken out the mesh liner! I have always love the pampers cruisers, because they did keep my baby dry and they didn't leak... not any more Pampers have now taken out the wonderful mesh liner that is still on the picture, and now I can't stand them. We live in the high desert and so my daughter drinks more than if we lived anywhere else in the country. Now I haven't had one diaper, no matter how long it is on, that hasn't leaked. I am so disappointed. Don't waste your money, because if you don't like the baby dry, that is what your paying the higher price for now. I wish I could have given them no stars, used to be 5.

Doesn't work as well as others We didn't like this bottle brush...it doesn't work as well as the brushes with the "sponge" top...it's difficult to insert into the bottles and difficult for the soap to adhere to it...it's been sitting unused for months...

Horrible product - stay away!!! I bought the product after reading positive reviews here, at Amazon. However, I regret that I bought it. Here is why:1. If you follow instructions on how much water to add, you will not be able to heat it to the desired level. I had to spend a couple of days using a "trial and error" method to figure out the amount of water that needs to be added.2. After a few days of operation I smelled a burned milk/formula.3. At the end of its second week of operation the "start" button will not shut-off and will be on at all times. I had to unplug it from the outlet every time.4. Thinking that I got a defective item I returned the product back to the store and got a brand new replacement. In a few days of operation smell of burned formula came back. The product is going back for a refund!!! No more Night & Day Bottle Warmer for me. Save yourselves from frustration and inconvinience: DO NOT BUY IT!

Pros/cons -ProsSpacious-ConsThe color is more of a chocolate and not espressothe finish quality is poortable is not sturdy. my son bumped into it and almost knocked it down. Hes 34 lbs- I could not recommend this for someone that does not have a welder to add stability. After a month I had to keep it against a wall to keep it from falling over.

Mixed Review My son was born 2weeks ago, prematurely,is still in the NICU,& unable to eat by mouth yet. So I appreciate the convenience of the bag - not needing to be near an outlet to use, the built-in thermal compartment to hold my milk,& storage for the parts of the pump.However,I find the pump itself absolutely frustrating. I hate that the suction cup, its shaft, & the bottles are frosted so you cant see if you're aligned properly or if you're even getting anything out.The handle swivels all around,so once you're actually aligned you lose the suction & have to start all over. After 8 months of a hard pregnancy, emergency c-section, & NICU trauma, you don't feel like fighting with a pump. You want to see what you're doing & see results.

Kids love it! My 2 year old son absolutely loves playing in the spraying water. The biggest attraction for me was the fact that it didn't cover up the faucet diverter - for that, it's perfect. Much better than those duck things that cover up the whole thing.My only complaint is the bubble dispenser, which isn't very good. (most bubble dispensers for faucet covers aren't, as I've noticed) If you have thick bubbles, they won't flow down the dispenser well, plus you have to sit there and hold down the dispenser button while the bubble fluid SLOWLY trickles out. This is super annoying. My solution was to either add a bunch of water in the dispenser with the bubbles to make it more runny or to just can the whole thing and put the bubbles in the running water. It seems faster and easier to do it the old-fashioned way.Other than that, I do think it's the best faucet cover out there thus far.

Great blanket, although kind of pricey I think this blanket is great. I took it out on a picnic and, sure enough, some water was spilled - but the water easily wiped away. The blanket is easy to fold up and tote around. Seems perfect for the beach as well. I recommend it although I feel what i paid for it was rather high - my only justification is that it seems it will last a long time so might be cheaper in the long run..we'll see.

Great playard I bought this playard to travel to with. I liked it over other ones because it came with the raised insert for infants. I like the subtle colors and the quality. Other reviewers said that the insert "caves in" in the middle, but if you follow the setup instructions and properly insert the included bars, it stays perfectly flat. Note: the raised insert is at a set height (as pictured), it's not adjustable. You can choose not to use the insert and just use it as a standard playard.

Designed to Break I've had two of these cups. I really liked the cup when I first tried it and bought a second one. My son was able to drink from it easily and it didn't leak (at first). After having it a couple of months, I hate it. I've lost one of the straw parts and a new straw costs nearly as much as a new cup. The top piece of the straw is very difficult to assemble correctly. It's very difficult to get water out unless you bite the straw, but then it's not durable enough to withstand repeated biting. Now there is a hole in the straw and it leaks. I can't get the straw to fit in quite right, and it leaks. These all seem to be design flaw issues. At least with the munchkin straw sipper, if you need a new straw they are cheap and readily available. I would not recommend this cup.

Cheap, thin and not worth the money I was excpecting great quality from the Gerbers prefolds I received a couple of weeks ago. I was very disappointed. They were so thin and cheaply sewn that I could not use them individually for my son. I had to sew two of them together to even make them thick enough to absorb a small amount of liquid. After one time through the wash, the edges of the cloths were fraying. These are not made to last and I would not purchase them again.
