Chicco Cortina Travel System Stroller and Car Seat - Discovery Review

I started out my travel system adventures with a different brand all together. At first sight it was great, but ended up being the most frustrating thing I owned for my son. The seat belts were a disaster in the end and the quality was shoddy at best. So, we went to our local baby retail store and talked to a sales associate. She showed us this set and we were hooked. The previous carrier car seat didn't sit well in my small car and it caused the driver and passenger to have to sit with their seats way up in the dash board and sitting board straight. The Chicco Cortina car seat fits perfectly with almost no adjustments necessary. The seat just sets in the base and locks in with ease, while the previous car seat we had was very difficult to get it to latch into its base.
The stroller folds with one hand, and stays standing upright when it's folded. Where as when I folded my previous stroller it fell to the ground. Not cool in mud, or water or even snow.
The car seat has the adjustable belt strap right in the front so you can easily change the straps to fit a snow suit or not. My previous seat required us to take the baby out and spend 30 minutes trying to get the straps out of the seat and then re-thread them EVERY time we wanted to switch between outfits. It was a HUGE pain.
What I don't like about this set is the seat seems a bit narrow. I had a bigger baby, so it doesn't seem as roomy side to side as the previous but, perhaps that is the safer way to be. The handle of the stroller is adjustable for different heights and that is great, but it doesn't seem real sturdy. The compartment on the bottom for the diaper bag does seem to be too small. It is nice that you can access that compartment even when the seat is all the way in the horizontal position without waking the baby, but I wish it had more space. I also find this stroller to be SUPER light and easy to maneuver. It steers with one finger almost. And I find it to be super light when hefting it in and out of my car.
Overall... I am very very happy with this product and how much easier it is then previous purchases.

I made bookmarks for a baby shower favor and used the "It's A Boy" charm on the bookmark. I loved the charm but paid way too much for shipping. The cost of three packages of 24 charms was $21.51. They were really lightweight. The cost of shipping was $13.47. The packages could have been sent in a regular 5 x 7 enveloped with no problem.

Baby Jogger City Elite Double Stroller Review

After reading a ton of reviews on this stroller we decided to get one. The main complaints I saw listed were 1) it's heavy and 2) it's hard to get to the storage below - and I have to say both are correct. I'm 5'11 and in pretty good shape and I find this stroller extremely heavy. But then it's not like you carry it around, so overall I don't find this a huge drawback. I would say if you're a small person and you're trying to get this into and out of a car trunk you might have some trouble. As for the storage basket, it's next to impossible to get into. If you're putting individual items in it's not too bad, but there's no way I can get my diaper bag into it (and since the handle has a tag that specifically says "do not hang anything from handle" you're stuck carrying it). But otherwise this stroller is a dream. It's VERY easy to steer, fits through doors easily, folds up SO easily (search you tube for a demo video, it's amazing), very comfortable for my girls to sit in (a 4 month old and 2 year old), and does have more storage on pockets behind the seat and on the handle bar that are easy to get to (still can't do anything with the diaper bag though). What sold me on this stroller was how easy it is to fold, and now that I have it in person I love it even more. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

I love the Barnyard Set. You can find so many fun and unique decorations to go with the theme. For example stuffed animals, books, even plant holders. I would strongly urge Babies R Us to stock up on more of the Kids Line Barnyard products. I would like to register for more of the products that go with the set. At [...] there is a ton of Barnyard accessories. However, you can only order them on line. I hope Babies R Us will begin to carry more items that go along with this adorable set.

I love this bedding set. I love the fact that it says "GIRL" without pink. Lambs and Ivy Secret Garden is a great quality baby crib set! My daughter loves to look at the butterflies and dragon flies before falling asleep. When she was a couple of weeks old, she would stare at the black and white gingham! Great pick for baby girls, especially for the moms that aren't huge fans of pink!

Scooby-Doo Folding Potty Review

My son really wanted a scooby doo potty. He was so excited when it came in. The first time he used it it slipped on the seat and pinched his leg. I may look cute but is not made well. The material is flimsy at best and the non slip pads on the bottum are useless.

Eddie Bauer Adventurer Travel System, Stonewood Review

Eddie Bauer Adventurer Travel System, Stonewood
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We've been using this travel system for six months, and overall, we're happy with it.
The pros:
* It's very plush, and our son seems comfortable. He started using the system at 6 pounds and is now at 18, and it has fit him very well throughout.
* Although the extra bases aren't available in most stores, you can order one directly from Dorel.
* The stroller is easy to use, and it manuevers incredibly well for a large stroller.
* It's very ergonomic; we don't have to bend or strain to push the stroller, the diaper bag fits over the handle, and we all get our cupholders.
* The storage basket under the stroller is huge.
* The stroller has a very deep recline.
* It's stylin'.
The cons:
* It's pretty heavy and bulky. I can get the car seat in and out each day, but it's not the easiest. Even when our son was small, the seat seemed very, very heavy. And the stroller, even when folded, takes up a big chunk of real estate in the back of our SUV.
* The car seat straps are a bugger to adjust. I haven't done this myself, but my husband HATES them. He loves almost everything else about the travel system, but hates rethreading those straps.
* It's difficult to get things in and out of the storage basket, regardless of whether the baby is even in the stroller.
In hindsight, we might still purchase this system again. But we'd do our research to see if another car seat would be easier to deal with.
