Works well for BOYS and GIRLS
That's not true for all potty seats (some seem better designed for girls than boys), but since we have B/G twins and ideally wanted matching seats, we researched exhaustively. The Baby Bjorn Potty Chair was an excellent purchase and made potty training relatively easy.It's also attractive, comfortable, and cleans easily. 5 stars.We had red and blue but there are more color choices now, and note also that certain colors go on sale from time to time. | 1positive

Perfect for Large Spaces
This gate is perfect for closing in our play room for our 7-month old. The opening into the room is about 75" wide and we decided to go with this gate because of all the good reviews. It installed very quickly, my husband used the enclosed diagram for drilling the bracket holes with no problems. We did have a little issue when he was trying to push the side down onto the brackets & it bent one of the plastic pieces slightly, but he was able to re-bend it back with a screwdriver. I love that it can be shortened or lengthened to suit your space needs. My son is still crawling so not sure how the mesh will hold up against him pushing on it once he's standing, but so far it's kept my cat & dog out successfully, despite them pushing on it! :) | 1positive

Milk gets sucked up the tube!
At first I loved this new pump -- it seemed to work much better and more efficient than my really old hand-me-down pump in style. However, that being said, it has been only a few weeks and it feels like it is harder and harder to get milk out.Also, more importantly, milk consistently gets sucked up the tubing. I hold the horn/bottle upright and keep the motor/pump higher than the bottle but for whatever reason my milk refuses to go down the correct passageway to the bottle. The horn is incredibly annoying since (unlike the older version) you can't even see what the heck is in there (parts are yellow plastic). I don't know if I have a bad horn or if I'm doing something wrong (I have NEVER had this problem with my pump in style).I'm sad that I dropped about 150 on this and it isn't all that great. I wish the baby market were a bit more reasonable.... | 0negative

Convenient, portable, secure
This chair is great! It's so easy to throw in the trunk on trips, easy to set up in a restaurant, and easy to clean. The only 2 drawbacks are that it does not come in a bag and is a little awkward to carry (although not heavy) and that it sometimes does not stay completely folded because the arms swing out quite easily in response to gravity, which can be a little annoying. It is much sturdier than it looks--at first I was worried my daughter would tip over restaurant tables every time she moved, but as long as you position the chair wisely, there is no risk at all. Additionally, she really likes it and even tries to climb into it when it is sitting on the floor at home. I have made several baby purchases that I regret, but this is definitely not one of them! | 1positive

Best on the market!!!!!!!!
UPDATE: I have been using this gate with the New Baby. He is now 20 months old and there are absolutely no complaints...just praise. The pedal seems to be improved as I have yet to have it break. I still recommend this gate above and beyond all the rest. Matter of fact I am about to buy another one this weekend to put upstairs.I used this gate for both of my girls and eventually a little girl that my MIL babysat. It's very durable and the ease of use and set up is great. It's also a plus that the fram stays in place and you dont' have to remove it all the time like other gates. The one part that might give out will be the pedal. My husband broke it once when we first got this because the animal that he is put too much weight on it (the gate stands up nicely to regular pressure). I do have to say that the company was great when I called them for a replacement part and sent it out the very same day. I am now 4 1/2 months pregnant and will buy a new one. I have no doubts or bad things to say about this gate. It was well worth the money. I had tried several other gates and was not happy at all with any of them. | 1positive

Best ever hands free gate!
My husband and I bought this gate 3.5 years ago to keep our dog out of a restricted part of our home. Its still works great and is our favorite gate. We are now adding a second one to our home in preparation of our new child. The best thing I like about the gate is you don't have to screw it into the wall and leave holes in it when you are done using it. We bought a differant gate before this one and it damaged our walls badly. Luckily a family member told us about how great this gate was and so we ended up buying it. One disadvantage about this gate is that small kids will have trouble opening the gate, and you may have to explain how to open it to all your guests.This gate is so easy to use. All that is required is using your foot to press on the pedal and your knee to open the door. | 1positive

Didn't work for me...
I purchased this (under my husband's Amazon account) to use while we were on vacation, rather than lugging my giant hospital pump through Disney World. It's had great reviews and obviously worked for many people. However, it didn't work for me at all. I've spent two weeks fiddling with it and I can't get it to pull even a single drop out. My electric pump can pull out 8-10 ozs at a time so I know it's not a supply issue. I called Avent's support, and they had me reassemble it and try again. It still won't work. They're sending me new parts to try out but I doubt that's the issue. It just feels like there is very little suction in this little pump.The funny thing is that the advertising for this pump says it can pull out the same amount as a hospital grade pump, but the phone support mentioned to me that it's a manual pump so it won't get as much as an electrical. Talk about misleading advertising!And of course, you can't return these items. I may just see if I can spend the next two weeks before vacation getting adept at hand expressing, because I really don't want to spend over $70 on manual pumps if they don't work. | 0negative

changing pad cover
Very good quality changing pad cover. We have a flat changing pad, and it's difficult to find covers to fit it. This one works well, although it's not elasticized all the way around. The cotton is good quality, though, and the selection of colors is excellent. | 1positive

I take this blanket with me everywhere!
Basically, I don't like my baby crawling on dirty surfaces, not even our own carpet inside of our home. This all-purpose blanket is great, I use it my bedroom on the floor so my baby can crawl around and play with her toys and I take it with me everywhere. Whether I am visiting a relative or going outdoors, I love that I can use this blanket everywhere. My only concern with it is that it's very flat because it's waterproof (which makes it easy to dry when wet), on the downside, I used it at a relative's house where there is no carpet, my baby rolled over and hit her face somewhat hard so since then I use a quilted blanket underneath or above this item if using indoors on hard wood floors, tile or concrete surfaces to prevent injury if child just learning to crawl and rollover. Only other thing that concerned me was that I was outdoors during baby's nap time and she fell asleep, since the material on top of the blanket isn't cotton it doesn't breathe well and she was sweating a lot because of the material. I gave this item 5 stars because it definitely serves it's purpose and can be used everywhere, just need to take some extra precautions if your child is still an infant: like place a quilted blanket along top/bottom for extra support and either don't let your baby nap outdoors on this blanket or bring a cotton blanket to layer on top of this item if your baby going to nap on it. | 1positive

Great swing!
My daughter loved this swing, and she began using it just after she came home from the hospital. The seat was well cushioned, and the music was very soothing. All things considered, it was relatively easy to put together. Unfortunately, we lost this swing to Hurricane Katrina, but I plan on buying our baby girl another one as soon as possible. | 1positive

Swanky, and pretty durn functional
I bought this bag for its looks and it hasn't disappointed. Looks great on our Baby Trends stroller and on my shoulder. I get unsolicited compliments so it's not just me. I think it's unisex, my husband disagrees (says it's external pockets are puffy and therefore feminine), but he carries it anyway and doesn't seem to feel awkward.It has many many pockets which is a pro and also a con - almost too many for my addled brain. I carry: 3 diapers, 6 ziplock bags, 10 indiv wrapped wipes, 1 or 2 spare onesies, a shawl for breastfeeding, a swaddling blanket, a urpcloth my wallet, cell phone, keys, lanolin and sometimes a bottle and formula, and a pacifier in the skiphop pacifier tote attached to the strap.My one complaint - my cell phone, and especially my keys, get lost in the deep external pockets. There's a shallow zippered pocket presumably meant for things like these but it's buried under the flap and behind a zipper - and this means that these items meant for ready access simply aren't. | 1positive

Soft, cute designs, but leaks
The Pampers Baby Dry diapers seem to be leaking often even after a new diaper has been put on. I changed my son's diaper and it leaked within 15 minutes on 2 occasions. They seem to fit him well and are soft and cute, but somehow aren't effective. I'm sure that it's like many products. They work extremly well for some, but for others, the product does not work. | 0negative

Shame on Amazon for rising the price....!!!!
I use to buy my pampers here on amazon, but since they have raised the price to over $3 per package in the last month, I will be getting mine from Wal-Mart, shame on Amazon for rising the price. At least they are cheaper at Wal-Mart and I can use my manufacturer coupon at Wal-Mart. Perhaps if Amazon would lower the price again, I would shop from Amazon again... SHAME ON AMAZON!!! LOWER THE PRICE!!! | 0negative

Hands down, this is the best toilet training seat!
Nothing to add to all of the positive feedback. This is, by far, the most excellent toilet seat for potty training. My son, now 3.5 years old, completely skipped over portable potty chairs, and much prefered going straight to the "big potty," using this training seat. He can put it on and take it off himself, and seems to take great pride in doing so. I have purchased three, two for home, and one permanantly dedicated as our travel potty seat. Love it, love it, love it! | 1positive

not worth the money
Just picked up this dresser today. I'm returning it tommorrow. The good things...the dresser was packed well, with no damage to the dresser.The bad....3 screws were missing on the drawer slides. The knobs don't fit snug against the dresser, despite using an electric screwdriver. The wood (i mean particle board) looks cheap. They call it "natural maple" when in fact it's fake birch. I would rather spend a couple of hundres dollars more to get a quality product! | 0negative

So far its helping!!!!
I just got this in yesterday and read many reviews before I purchased. So far, I am very pleased. One thing that I would recommend is DEFINITELY buy a bigger size. The size chart is WAY off. I am 21 weeks pregnant with twins and currently 152lbs. The size chart recommended a small, but after reading reviews i ordered a medium and glad i did. I am wearing the medium on the tightest setting and its perfect! Conceals nicely under clothes and very comfortable. Looking forward to seeing if it reduces my back pain over the next week:) | 1positive

Not so good
I always thought that unscented means that fragrance chemicals haven't been added. Wrong! Unscented means that it was additionally chemically treated to masque the scent. So it is not a solution for the sensitive skin. | 0negative

Not one ounce - disappointment
I was excited to get these so I could freeze breast milk and homemade baby food by one ounce cubes so I wouldn't have to waste or defrost milk I didn't need. But I swear, even though it reads that the cube sizes are 1 ounce each, I can only get 3/4 ounce in each...which is disappointing because now I will have to use 2 to cubes to get 1.5 ounces and so on and it's just inconvenient. Make sure they are on a flat surface when freezing because the lid does not make it so the liquid stays in their own cube, would be nice if it did. And it's kinda hard to get the frozen milk or food out once frozen. :/ not sure I would recommend this to anyone sadly. | 0negative

NOT SAFE!
I walked into my eight-month-old son's room after his nap today to discover he had removed one of these from the outlet near his crib. DO NOT buy them! | 0negative

not really worth it
I use the 24 mm hard shields as well as the soft shields, and I don't really notice a difference. The thing is, the part that matters where the nipple pulls through, is hard plastic. That's where I have problems with both types. I suppose it might be a little more comfortable for some, but it's about the same for me. | 0negative

Everyone should buy this!
This is the best thing I've found in a long time. I tried one of those cheap sponge things from [a store], and it just mildewed and was disgusting after a VERY short period of time. I went to babiesrus which is where I should have gone in the FIRST place and there this was. The last one too! Boy, I just don't know what I would have done without it. Especially for a first baby and you're nervous about bathing anyway. This thing keeps the baby warm, snug and safe in the baby tub or sink. It just is a great thing and the baby loves it! I try to buy one for every baby shower now but they usually run out at babies rus! Great, great item! One of the BEST parts is that it's WASHABLE! | 1positive

Stylish and Durable, with a HORRIBLE LEAKING PROBLEM
I have three kids, and for the third time, I am utterly dissapointed with Avent's product. With each new child, we bought a fresh supply of bottles, hoping Avent had fixed this problem. We really wanted these bottles to work, as they seem to be the most durable and stylish ones on the market, and our kids never had any problems with the nipples. However, each time, we ended up having to switch to another brand.The leak is not just a spot here or there. It is often a torrential downpour, leaking out the sides of the white cap. I know many people who have had the same problem.For as expensive as these bottles are, I would think Avent would take more pride in their product, fixing such simple things as a leak.Don't waste your money. | 0negative

Excellent buy.
First, the shipping was super fast and arrived in perfect condition. Second, the bed was very easy to put together. It took about an hour but could have been less if my 2 year old didn't insist on helping. Third, the bed is very well made and sturdy. That being said, it is made for toddlers and not for adults or large children, there is definitley a weight limit. My daughter couldn't be happier with her new "big girl bed" and that makes me a very satisfied customer. Thank you. | 1positive

Do NOT buy
If you have the Graco Snugride car seats, do not buy this product. The instructions for customizing for your car seat are terrible - would it kill them to include some pictures so that you could see what they are suggesting? After setting the stroller up the way it is suggested for the Graco Snugride seats, the seats are not level, and they wobble terribly, you'd never want your precious babies riding around in this contraption. I also tried several other set-ups, and none seem secure enough. In addition, the customer service people are not very helpful. | 0negative

Terrible swing
This swing could barely move with just the car seat in it and wouldn't move at all with the baby in the car seat. Forget about it if you have other kids running around the house as well, it's the perfect height for little hands to poke the baby! | 0negative

Massaging Teether

JJ Cloe Urban Toddler Bundle Me- Stealth

My child got a rash
The first baby wipes for my girl ware Pampers sensitive. I liked those but I wanted use something more "healthy" for her so I bought Seven generation baby wipes. My baby got a rash the second day I use those wipes. This was so awful red and painful that she cried when I tried to use this product. When I return to Pampers sensitive her bottom started to heal and after four daysthe rash disappeared completely. I think those wipes are not "healthy" for my baby and I am not going to buy any more. | 0negative

Very cozy car seat
Our 3 1/2 old loves this car seat. She was getting to heavy to lug around in the infant car seat so it was time to move up. I have to say the installation instructions are VERY confusing so we went to the local fire department and had it installed professionally. Most local fire departments do this about once a month free of charge. I feel comfortable knowing it is in safe.We have gone on long road trips with the baby in this seat and she is just comfy and cozy the whole way. We also love that when she gets to be over 40 pounds, we don't have to buy a new seat because this one converts to a booster. | 1positive

Cannot recommend.
THis gate sounds great, you can step over it and it installs easily. But the pressure isn't great and it often needs to be re-installed. You have to bend over to open pet door, not good if you have back problems. THe latch pinches your fingers (and your childs'!) Ouch. And the darn thing fell apart on me. This was a waste of money. Made in china quality! | 0negative

So sorry I bought this monitor
This monitor is doing a great service for the 9-volt battery industry. The receiver goes through one every couple of days. Not a big deal, really, considering it comes with an AC adapter for the receiver. Which brings up another great service this piece junk provides - When I plug it in, I have to hold it in the air, jump up and down and try several positions to get reception (and by reception, I mean static). All that stretching and twisting makes me nice and limber for the million trips up and down the stairs to check on baby since the monitor doesn't actually work. I have to say, it is helping me shed the extra pounds. Baby loved the light show and the music, but after a week or so, the projector started to cut out and only the music still plays. So, I guess what we are left with is a $40.00 box that plays tinny music.So basically, I would highly recommend this item to anyone who enjoys tinny music, exercising and spending a lot of money to support the battery industry.I would not recommend this item to anyone who actually needs a baby monitor. | 0negative

We're looking for a new diaper
Don't look at the old reviews of these diapers. Just look at the ones from the past few months and you'll see what the new trend is. I would ignore any 5 star reviews as they probably work for Pampers. There's not a conspiracy against Pampers...Pampers changed their diapers. They had great reviews until they changed them. | 0negative

Great, until it broke!
Got this swing months before my son was born. Everything worked great at first and the lights were adorable. Has many options for swing speeds, options of having music off or music on with lights or not at all. The swing adjustment is great, my son preferred the side to side swinging. My son loved it and put him right to sleep in the side to side position My baby used it a total of 5 times, FIVE TIMES. And now the only thing that works is the swinging motion. The lights nor the music no the mobile will turn on! I noticed the music and lights lagged to turn on, but it finally gave out. and it only took 5 times. I will be calling to see if its recalled or they have a replacement part they could send me. HUGELY disappointing!! | 0negative

I can't believe someone would try to heat a bottle any other way!
The only thing this bottle warmer won't due is heat the bottle by itself, but it's darn close. This is my first experience with warming bottles and this instrument is a must have, especially at 3am in the morning. With the cooler in the back, my wife and I were discussing putting another one of these babies in our bedroom using the ice pack to keep our bottled milk cool and then popping it into the heater when the "big guy" is ready for his AM Feedings. We use Avent bottles and they are perfect for this warmer. | 1positive

Perfect, Will Buy More
I love this thing! Purchased as a "partial coverlet" for my twin bed because of small dog with an incontinence problem. Luckily, I have not had reason to test the serious waterproof ability yet, though it does handle other simple spills well. There was no smell at all when product arrived. Colours were perfect match. For my purposes, I could do without the straps and flaps designed for tote style, but it's a nice option to have. Laundered in a normal home washer/dryer with no problems. Overall, it was much more supple afterward, though the tote panels remained sturdy as intended. Looks great in the room, and even with two dogs on it daily, does not show dirt or wear. Silky top side also feels nicely "cool" in Summer. | 1positive

Great for occasional use only...
I bought this pump just to use for occasional outings and short babysits and that's exactly what this is for. This pump works really well for a manual pump, it's better than the The First Years or Evenflo electric pumps. It doesn't lose suction or leak if you hold it the right way and it's easy to clean. I recommend this pump only for short-term purposes. | 1positive

Great for Feeding, Pump and Storing Breastmilk
We purchased these bottles as a way to store breastmilk so my husband could enjoy feeding our son. After I had difficulty nursing, I stopped breastfeeding when our son was 2 months old. These bottles proved more valuable than I had thought. They are great for moms who want to continue to give their babies the benefits of breastfeeding but are unable to. I love them because they were great for pumping because they fit right onto any Medela pump, then you can either use it to feed your baby by adding the nipple, or store it in the fridge or freezer. I especially liked them because it had markings in ounces to let me know how much I pumped. I never had to guess if my son was getting enough milk. The nipple appeared to give our son the same feeling as if he were breastfeeding. He had to work at sucking like he did when he was breastfeeding unlike the usual bottles where it steadily flowed into his mouth. I would recommend these bottles to anyone who is going back to work and is pumping, anyone who wants to breastfeed but can't or has difficulty or anyone who wants to store a supply of breastmilk. | 1positive

Fits and works beautifully on the UppaBaby Vista
We have had many different strollers over the course of our 3 children. Ages 10, 6 and newborn and we loved the features of the UPPaBaby Vista stroller EXCEPT it did not have a parent organizer. This was an awesome solution for the problem! It adjusts very nicely to the stroller and it holds my husband and my coffee. My money in the zipper pouch and my cell phone in the external pocket! It is a perfect solution. And very inexpensive. | 1positive

Disappointed to say the least
After using a different type of Pampers, we purchased these. My 10 week old premie has had numerous blow-outs in these diapers. His clothes end up wet often and they feel much cheaper material than Pampers Swaddlers. I definitely won't purchase Baby Dry diapers again! | 0negative

Terrible monitor
If all monitors are made like this one I will have to sleep in my baby's room. There was so much static/interference in just the very next room I couldn't stand it. This item is going back and I will try another brand. If I could've rated it lower than one star I would have. DONT BUY THIS ITEM....YOU WILL BE SORRY. | 0negative

Helps me out
This product definitely helps me make it through a long day at work. I can tell in the evening on the days I forget to wear it. It does run a little big, but I started wearing it at 6months and figured I wasn't getting any smaller! Definitely worth the money. | 1positive

Best diapers
Regardless of the cons that I will list, Pampers Baby Dry are my #1 diapers. Here are my pros and cons.Pros: keep baby's bottom dry, don't leak, don't cause rash, they're toughCons: they really sag when they get wet, they have a smell (not stinky...like chlorine or something) | 1positive

Best Deal
This is the best deal you can find for this many diapers and this price. If you get the automatic subscription for it, then they cut you a deal on the price and free shipping. You should do it. You can space out the diapers to however often you want them to come. I love it. If you want to save money and aren't ready to do cloth diapers then you can start saving money by buying these from Amazon. | 1positive

Not happy with this
This is not at all what I expected and I am deeply unhappy with it. I was under the impression they were CLING-ONS, that could be placed and removed easily. I allowed my 3 year old grandson to play with them, sticking them to his wall. Unfortunately, when I went to remove them so that I could arrange them neatly on his wall, I found that they actually have a sticky substance on the back and they took paint off the wall!! They do come off easily, though I'm not sure how long the stickiness will last and how many times they can be removed. However, I must live with them where my grandson placed or re-paint the walls. Do not buy these if you are looking for the clingy kind - they are very sticky. | 0negative

One of our best purchases
This is one of the best things we bought for our little guy. Like a lot of new parents, we're terrified of letting him sleep with a blanket while he's under 6 months because of the increased risk of SIDS. I don't know how substantial the risk actually is, but no matter how small, we'd probably sleep a little less because of it. This keeps him warm, and works great. | 1positive

Worth the money
We got this seat because my daughter wouldn't sit on her other potty seat, which did not sit on the toilet. Once we got it she immediately wanted to sit on the toilet and read books and it's been a great start to our potty training adventures! I highly recommend it. | 1positive

If you want to sleep, DON'T BUY THIS MONITOR
We bought this to replace a sony Baby Call that was wearing out after 3 1/2 years of everyday use. The store we went to didn't have the sony, which we wanted, so we settled for this fisher price piece of garbage. This thing never is silent even if nothing is on in the room. What's the point of a baby monitor if all you hear is static and it keeps you up. If you want to stay up all night and hear every little wimper or sound your new baby makes, then this is a good monitor, if you want to sleep and only hear the REAL cries of a baby, then the BEST monitor is the Sony Baby Call monitor model 910. it's cheaper than this private connection and has VOICE ACTIVATION! Why can't all the manufacturers think of this, so the darn thing is off until the baby actually makes a loud enough sound to turn it on. This fisher price monitor is going back to the store where we bought it and I drove to another store farther away today to make sure we got the sony baby call. forget all other monitors and buy a sony. it's the best one out there and i have nothing to gain by pushing their product other than to say it's the ONLY monitor that should be sold in any store. the rest are all garbage without voice activation. We were up on/off all night last night listening to every little sound the baby made and the static that goes along with it. The volume adjustment shouldn't even be there because you can hardly tell a difference between the lowest setting and the highest setting.how people can say this is a good monitor is beyond me, it's garbage, don't listen to anyone who tells you to buy it. RUn and buy a sony, | 0negative

absolute must-have
This is one of the best purchases we made with our first child. Still going strong after 3 babies! Lightweight, folds flat easily with one hand, very sturdy. Great if you are in & out of the car a lot - doesn't wake the baby. This stroller has been everywhere with us (beach, park, store, school, airport, etc). Highly recommended. | 1positive

Does not work in certain opening sizes falling within the advertized range
I just watched this thing fall down our stairs for the 10th time, and it tried to take my wife with it. In the mounted position, the gate is so wobbly that even the slightest touch by our daughter will cause the side bolts holding in place to cave in and fall down the steps, rendering the gate useless. The latch mechanism also stopped working after just a few days. I admit that the opening we have is an unusual size (slightly wider than a standard door opening, but not big enough for the extension provided), but clearly falls within the advertised range. Unless you are using this with a standard door opening or one with the precise dimension of the extension, not recommended. | 0negative

Worst DIaper
I have always used huggies, but the price was great on these pampers and hospitals use them so I figured they must be great. First, they leak and separate when wet. I put them on my baby at night and he wakes up with wet clothes. When walking around the gell is saggy and it separates into sagging pockets. These diapers are of the same quality as a noname brand of diaper...they really suck and I can't wait to get rid of them but its going slow since I ordered 192 of them!!!!!!! | 0negative

They work
They do what they're supposed to do. :-) No leaks.Amazon's "Subscribe and Save" plan is very convenient. I wonder if UPS is tired of delivering them every few weeks? | 1positive

Not worth it
I normally trust Graco products, and even though I could only find one picture of this product, I bought it, trusting a good product coming from Graco! Not so.The 'blanket' that is rolled up inside a small pocket inside the 'boot' is actually a teeny strip of very thin fleece fabric, shaped in a triangle, that would probably only cover a preemie baby. Not even close to keeping them warm.The boot is a navy blue, elastic cover that goes over top the bottom half of the car seat, top half is completely left exposed. It is made out of crispy windbreaker material, not at all what I would consider baby friendly.I would not recommend this product to anyone. | 0negative

Excellent as cloth diapers - and more!
These diapers were the primary ones I used for my son and various foster children. While others have complained that are NOT useful as a diaper, I found them to be the MOST perfect for this use! Especially with babies in different sizes at the same time, I did not have to worry about assuring I have enough of any given size - and they fit great into the diaper covers I was using (Bumkins covers) - for the littlest ones I folded one way, for the middle children I folded another - for the biggest children, I would use two and fold them the same as I folded for the middle children.Now that I am not caring for other people's children, I still have many of these diapers and we still use for cleaning cloths around the house and elsewhere. Over the years, very few have fallen apart (pretty much just the one's my mother washed with bleach, which should never be used on an item that will be pressed against a baby's most sensitive area....).I thought and still think they are great, so I am very surprised to hear from others that they do NOT work for all the purposes that I used them for :) | 1positive

Smart, relieving, wonderful!
Going back to work brought me away from nursing every couple hours and created less time for me to pump, which caused my breasts to become swollen and sore. I pop these in the mircrowave before I nurse for relief and freeze them when I am in pain. I think these are the best gift for any nursing mom, because they are discreet, fit inside a bra and such great relief! | 1positive

Cute pacifier attacher
I use this on the hospital soothie type of pacifiers and it's a bit tricky to get the string threaded through a hole (though those pacifiers are clearly not intended to be used with this attacher). We have three of these and I love them. They're perfect for when you're out and about to clip on your child's jacket. | 1positive

The seatbelt is terrible!
My sister bought this for her son, then passed it on to me when he outgrew it. We both hate it! My other sister has the same one and she doesn't like it either.I like the look. I love the tray inserts and the pop out cup holders. I like that it has a mini tray when both the others are removed. The finish has held up just fine on mine.I also don't like cleaning the side slats, but I'd deal with that for the look if the safety restraint was better.The padded cover is piling. It looks faded and worn, but it has been washed a lot.But the big con to me is the safety restraint. The seatbelt is ridiculously difficult. I've owned several feeding chairs, and this one is by far the most difficult to adjust to fit. My daughter is constantly standing in the chair. She wiggles out so quickly since she is very skinny. My sisters have both had the same issues. The other day she completely fell out of the chair. It is just frustrating and scary. I can't turn my back on her for a second when she is in it. I don't think she likes the tray height either, and that is why she is always trying to stand up. I am going to purchase a chair that has a seatbelt like you'd find in a stroller, a five point harness that will go up over her shoulders. One that will attach to our kitchen chair.I took this out to the garage today. No more high chair for us. It just isn't worth the risk. | 0negative

Great for Airline travel
Took this to travel on transatlantic flights with our Peg Perego P3 Stroller. The bag kept it from getting scratched etc, and the stroller fitted nicely inside. It was useful for carrying it over your shoulder to the gate, especially with a baby/toddler to carry too.The padding is great, but even though we gate-checked it the stroller still had some of it's frame bent and damaged (thank you baggage handlers everywhere!!).This bag is well made and served its purpose well. | 1positive

Great bag for Dad's
great bag for all dad's with newborn babies. great styling, you can't even tell that it's full of diapers and milk. The only problem we had was that the baby wipe dispenser pocket didn't actually work with any of the wipe brand's containers that we used. Oh, and the fact that it made my petite (5'-0"tall) wife look even smaller than she already is when she had to carry it. Well worth it though. We've had ours for almost 5-years now and will soon be using it for our next child. | 1positive

hate huggies
When I gave birth I had already bought packages of newborn huggies. They were horrible. I thought once my boys got older that maybe huggies would work then. NOPE. I've tried Huggies Supreme and the cheap huggies. They are both made horribly and after your child goes in them once they sag so bad you have to go change them. I thought since everyone always talks about pull-ups that they would work once potty training time came around. WRONG AGAIN. They leaked evertime he wore them. Do not waste you money. I always ended up going back to the pampers swaddlers, cruisers, and training pants. Pampers are the best. | 0negative

Not what it used to be!
I only used pampers for my son when he was first born because they fit so well and were extremely absorbable! But after I lost my job I started buying the big boxes from Costco that are the kirkland brand diapers (which are basically the Huggies). I purchased these because of the price at the time with free shipping and the price of gas it turned out to cost just as much as those did. Well I will not be using these diapers for him anymore! They do not hold anything in! He goes to bed with a new/fresh diaper every night and by the time he wakes up 8-10 hours later he is completely soaked through! Never once did this happen with the Costco brand diapers...or pull ups! For 2 weeks now he has been soaking through every night and that is without liquids before bed! No more Pampers for me! | 0negative

PERFECT
I used this seat with my son, and now with my daughter. He started potty training at 12 months and was pretty much done at 15 months, with his very last accident at 18 months. He was a small toddler and the seat was just the right size to sit on.Now I have a six month baby girl, we are E.C.ing (Elimination Communication, or Infant Potty Training). She uses the pot part separate from the chair to pee in. We have been using in with her since she was two weeks old, and she is very comfortable sitting over it in mommy's lap. She recognizes the pot and knows what it is for. I look forward to the days when she will recognize the pot in the chair and sit on it by herself.Great seat, easy to clean, nice for early starters, and also for older kids who want their own chair and want to empty the deep pot by themselves. (Very low risk of spilling.)Mrs. Meg Logan | 1positive

A Nightmare for a New Mom!!!
I was surprised to see that customers had success using this monitor. Perhaps it has to do with the depth of the babies breathing. After a very scary pregnancy and prolonged stay, I brought me preemie home from the hospital. I am constantly frightened that he may quit breathing or something will go wrong. This monitor went off so many times the first night I had to give up and shut it off. Before I did though, I wanted to see if my baby was having apnea or not so I layed my hand on him so I could feel the breathing and the monitor was going off for no reason. I tried adjusting it but nothing I did made any difference. I had more piece of mind putting him in the bassinet & sleeping with one hand on him than using that monitor. I am so dissappointed because I wanted it to work so badly so I wouldn't have to be afraid. | 0negative

Way to Expensive for What You Get
The Grandparents sent this to our 2 yr old son. The first one did not work when we received it. We had to send back at our cost and they re-sent us one which worked. You have to put it close to the ceiling and in the middle of the room for the stars to look like anything recognizable. Who normally places a tall piece of furniture right in the middle of your child's room?? It has a constellation chart, which is useless, because the stars are blurry and distorted in arrangement. The colors don't change automatically and it seems to be more of a distraction to my son's falling asleep than anything. When I saw the list price for this in an airline magazine, I was astounded. I wouldn't pay more than $10 for this cheap novelty item. | 0negative

Plastic rips and cracks too easily
Bought this and had it shipped especially from the States to the UK because it looked better than what I could find here. It is nice and long and the sides do make it difficult, not impossible, for a baby to roll. But the plastic cover cracked and split before I'd had it very long. Even with the towel cover, there is still a possibility that pee can get through and soaked up in the sponge underneath, making it smell of urine. | 0negative

a great gate for children and pets
Cardinal Gates' Clear Panel Gate is simply fantastic. While this is a plastic paneled gate, the frame, locking mechanism and wall mounts are made from sturdy metal. The Clear Panel Gate mounts to walls so there is no bottom bar to step over. Instead, the gate is permanently attached to brackets that mount on both sides of a walkway. The adjustable gate can potentially cover a large area, stretching out to over 41 inches of width. Purchase of an extension piece adds an additional foot. At almost thirty inches, the Clear Panel Gate is tall when compared to comparable products. While the locking mechanism is easy for adults to operate, it is adequately child resistant as the entire structure is sturdy enough to resist the assertive efforts of young children and large animals. Given the plexigrass panels, a gate that is mounted lower to the floor will even stop the passage of smaller animals such as rabbits and some cats. Between the white and black models, the attractive design will match most home decors. When the mount latch is installed, the gate is limited to opening in one direction. The difficulty of the installation is moderate; the directions could be clearer. Fortunately, installation of this gate can be very forgivable given that the wall brackets don't have to be parallel or level. This dynamic makes this gate an excellent choice for tricky situations. There are two potential drawbacks to the Clear Panel Gate. First, there is an inaccessible area of the gate. It exists between the inside of the extendible halves. Within this area, it is extremely difficult to remove the initial layer of protective film. Beyond this, the inaccessible area is impossible to clean which is a drawback given reside from the manufacturing process. The other issue has to do with a lack of wall anchors. The gate comes with all required screws and an Allen wrench to install the product into a wooden banister at the top of stairs. Ultimately, the wise consumer will discard the accompanying screws and purchase additional screws with compatible anchors before installing the gate into dry wall. All in all, Cardinal Gates' Clear Panel Gate is a very sturdy gate that will accommodate years of abuse from both youngsters and animals. | 1positive

Folded in half to ship!
I ordered this mattress because we got a bassinet second-hand that was supposedly larger than most other bassinets. The fit was perfect HOWEVER, the mattress had been folded in half for shipment. It had a huge fold in the middle of it and wouldn't lay flat. After leaving it out of the box for 2 days, the mattress was mostly flat but there are still creases at the edges and I can only place it into the bassinet one way or else it pops up in the middle. I contacted the company and they simply instructed me to leave it flat and it would resolve itself. If I had more time before the baby comes, I would definitely return it. Which is a shame because it's really a nice mattress other than the giant crease in it from shipping... It would be so easy for the company to ship it a different way to avoid this problem but they don't seem like they plan to do this anytime soon so please beware! | 0negative

My son loved this toy, its the only one he would chew on when he was teething, and the toy is still none the worse for the wear. Definitely a must-have! The colorful beads are also an attraction to the babies. | 1positive

Started fire in our car
We have been quite happy with the warmer until last week. We plugged it in and 5 seconds later it was smoking and burning at the car adapter outlet. My husband right away pulled out the burning plug but it already melted and a metal piece of it stayed int the outlet causing an electric short. So we were not able to restart our car until it was removed by a mechanic. Save yourself the experience of standing on the side of the road with a hungry baby on a rainy day due to this product. | 0negative

I Revised My Review. This Pail "STINKS"
MY ORIGINAL REVIEW:I read a lot of reviews on this product before purchasing. I am a disposable diaper user, and it works perfectly fine for me. Some of the reviews said that this did not "hold enough diapers", especially for cloth users. I have 8 month old twins, and it holds their diapers just fine, and I prefer to empty it every day or two anyways. Some reviews said there was an odor when you open it, but there are dirty diapers in there. If you want to avoid all possible odor - the Diaper Genie II is the way to go. I had one for my (now) 5 year old daughter, and we used it on the twins until I accidentally broke it. To be honest, I was trying to be frugal and not have to buy the special bags anymore, so I just went with the traditional pail.It is what it is -- you can use regular plastic bags from the grocery store, and yes, when you open it, you will smell the odor, but for the most part, unless there is a serious blow-out diaper in there, you won't smell anything when closed, especially if you use the Munchkin Arm & Hammer Discs (or something similar.)I do agree with other reviewers that it seems like the pail does not open enough. It's really not a huge issue for me, I can still get my diaper in there, but I can imagine if you use cloth diapers, which are more bulky, I can see your issue with that feature.**REVISED Review - 8/8/11 - 1 1/2 months after using this product**OK, I think I jumped the gun and gave too favorable of a review. My original review was within a week of receiving and using the product. The odor is so bad, I even went to double bagging, and bought scented (8 gallon) bags to help with the odor. Yes, I do realize there are dirty diapers in there, but being a former Diaper Genie owner, this is just disgusting. You smell the odor (obviously) when you open/close it, which is understandable, but it lingers in the room. No amount of cleaning the pail, or spraying of Lysol, or Deoderizing Disks helps. I even emptied the bag DAILY, and it was still too smelly. I understand there is poo in there, and it's going to smell, but after using it for a month, it got worse and worse.I have twins, and they are at Daycare 4 days a week, so this isn't even used full-time. This past weekend, I went out and bought the Diaper Genie II Elite. I am not thrilled that I have to buy the special bags, but at least my home won't smell like a dirty diaper pail any longer. | 0negative

Must read directions carefully
First of all let me say the first time we used it, it leaked too.. HOWEVER... thats because it was not snapped togther properly. YOU MUST READ DIRECTIONS THOUGHLY before using. But on another note.. after it stopped leaking, I have found the tub to be okay for bathing (size, etc.) But tonight, I have found a major problem. The blue/green ring that can come out for older babies when put back for infant use (like the picture shows) hurt my baby tonight. He is 6 weeks and like all infants throws his hands around while laying on the sling. ( I use the sling the opposite direction so my babies head is not in the deep part of the tub) his fingers got caught under the edge of the ring... OUCH! We dont fold up for storage, because its too difficult to re-snap togther to prevent leaking. So, no, I would not recomed this product. Go simple and Soft. | 0negative

Very Useful
This product is very useful for keeping milk organized in the freezer. If the bags are frozen flat it is very easy to stack the milk in order of when it was pumped. I also really like the spring loaded thing that pushes the milk forward. I used the lid as a second tray to hold more milk. | 1positive

Never buy any other clunky gates
Love it, looks and works great and my mother in law with arthritis can open it with out pain medication. Works great with dog and baby and needs enough pressure that it will be quite a while before the kid can operate it on her own...she'll be climbing over before she can open it. It appears that the bad reviews on this item are mostly due to not reading directions on how to install it. Super easy when you know what you are doing. | 1positive

Good, Safe Seat but room for improvement for the $$
We bought this seat as part of a Peg Perego travel system - as well as an extra base for a second car and the clip on diaper bag for the stroller. Over all I think this was a great infant carrier. Our daughter did start to out grow it height wise before she was at the 20lb. weight limit, but the closer she got to the weight limit the harder it was to manage the carrier any way. Carrying a 20lb pocket book would be no easy task. Being able to get her in and out of the car and leave her sleeping was great.We found the latching system and fabric to be very durable and comfortable for our child.The Cons are the price - especially if you buy the pieces separately, the stroller is heavy (it not designed nor advertised to be light)which is a factor, the cleats in the stroller that latch on to the carrier are plastic - for the price metal would have been better. And again on the stroller it was not one that was truly one handed operation.I am still happy I had this model, but we only used the carrier for about the first 9 months or so and the stroller for the first year and half of our daughter's life.We bought ours late summer that is generally when the model year changes. You may not get the latest fabric or feature but you will save big money, Check the web, sites like Baby Catalog of America's website or Strollers4Less.com and compare prices. If you know you will be using the car carrier in more than one car regularly it is worth buying an extra base (sold separately) to put in the second car. | 1positive

love this cd player
I had this on my registry and am so glad to have gotten it. We took it to the hospital with us for delivery - nice and portable. I like that it uses batteries since my little house has a limited number of plugs and most are used for other things. Eliminating the cord also means one less thing we have to baby-proof as she starts crawling. The light is just bright enough to see baby as she sleeps and the blue color doesn't hurt her eyes like yellow light can. I love that it shuts off after going through the entire CD rather than being on a timer, and clipping to the side of the crib means more space on tables and shelves. I read the review about this player using batteries, but sometimes the type of rechargeable battery used can make a difference in how long they last. Perhaps the batteries were bad. | 1positive

I love this stroller
I orginally purchased this stroller because the Graco I used with my first child would not fit in the trunk of my new car, but this one fit perfect with room to spare, and the new car is a MUSTANG..That's right this stroller fits in the trunk of a sports car. I have never had a problem with it (although while I was shopping for it, the competetors verson's wheel fell of right there in the store, and I put it right back on the shelf, after complaining of course). It is sooo light weight, and folds down sooo easy. And so many other mothers have eyeballed it and then had to approach me to find out what it was, and where I got it so they could go buy one too.I love it so much more than the Graco stroller I bought to go with the car seat originally. | 1positive

DIAPER CHAMP STINKS! QUITE LITERALLY!
Booooo! Thumbs down to this stinker of a product. Never seemed to contain the odor even when bag was changed daily! Would try to air it out in the laundry room to freshen it up...but spent so much time caring for this supposedly handy product, that it was just easier to bag the diapers and throw them out. YUCK! Also, rubber gasket pulled off after a while. Don't waste your money. Use a garbage instead! | 0negative

Nipples are horrible
Like many other reviewers experienced, the first time our baby tryed these bottles, she sucked for 10 minutes and didn't get anything. We went back and looked at the instructions and found that you're supposed to massage the nipple, and the disc at the bottom of the bottle to make sure that both the nipple hole and vents in the disc are open and working... which they weren't straight out of the package. After that, she hasn't had any trouble getting milk from the bottles. Now the problem is that the shape of the nipple hole (kind of like a 3 pronged star) makes them very prone to tearing. So we've already had to throw away at least 7 nipples in the 4 weeks she's been regularly bottle-feeding, and that's only during the day when she's at daycare. I'll be switching to new bottles once we run out of nipples (won't be long at this rate!!), since that will certainly be cheaper in the long run than having to keep buying replacement nipples. | 0negative

tray much too high!!
I love this chair and have used it from when my sons were 4 months old. They sit so comfortable in the reclining positions but now they are a year old and I want to sit them up to self feed and the tray is too high! I noticed the Graco Harmony high chair comes with a chair pad to raise the baby up a bit. Im still feeding them without the tray to my dismay. | 1positive

I like it...
Recieved my stroller today, haven't actully used it except in my house, but it seems to turn and everything pretty good. folds easy and flat enough to slide under my bed. I do see where the seat covers slide off easy, but oh well i can live with that. The baskets under seats are very spacious, more than what I was expecting! the parent tray is not all that, it will be good for keys, pacy's and maybe small cups. I wish it had the 5 point harness, but I guess we can do without it since it has the safety bars and anything beats the evenflo I have that I wasted $160 on. | 1positive

Perfect way to clean down our little buddy.
We previously just used a wash cloth. It never seemed to hold the soap well. We saw this product and decided to give it a go. It is great. It is definitely soft enough to use on baby, and it does not take much soap to build a good lather. Bottom line, we love this product. Tip - buy two, so when one starts to get a little old, you have another ready to go.New comments - There must be a similar product out there. The first one we bought lasted us at least two to three months. All subsuquent ones would start falling apart after the first few weeks. I can not tell which one I originally bought, so please be aware that there is an inferior product out there. | 1positive

3 month old LOVES this mobile!
I purchased this mobile for my daughter's bassinet. She absolutely loves it! She starts smiling at the white bear and goo ga ga-ing. It's so cute!! The bear and the mouse have magnetic hands and there is a magnet on their back that allows you to remove them from the mobile. However, the magnet on the back of each character is not centered so they hang on their sides. Otherwise, this is an excellent product providing lots of entertainment. | 1positive
