Editorial Review

Parents can grow weary of shoving an assortment of blankets into a stroller to keep baby insulated on lengthy walks. Fortunately, this handy little pouch keeps baby warm with a minimum of fussing for Mom and Dad. The exterior is made out of soft yet durable fleece material while the inside is made of a thick faux sheepskin. There are openings for three and five point harnesses, which should cover most strollers so baby can be extra secure, even on bumpy roads. The entire unit is also machine-washable (on cold cycle, tumble dry on low). This Bundle Me is designed for children up to 12 months or 21 pounds, whichever comes first. We're not sure how snug a bug in a rug is, precisely, but it couldn't be much cozier than this. --Charlie Williams

5.0 out of 5 stars Kept our winter baby warm and cozy, June 9, 2005

This review is from: JJ Cole Original Infant Bundle Me - Navy (Baby Product)

Some thoughtful friends sent us a Bundle Me when our son was born. When initially shopping for baby items, I hadn't thought we'd need such a thing, but it was incredibly useful. The bottom half stays in the car seat, making it warm and snuggly, and the top half zips on. We left it zipped on all the time for convenience, and just varied the degree to which we zipped our son in depending on the temperature. You can keep it zipped all the way for travel to the car, and easily unzip a bit for ventilation when riding in a warm vehicle. No need for a bulky snowsuit or blankets- just throw on a hat, and when you reach your destination, baby can be unzipped in a second and is comfortably dressed for indoor temperatures. The straps of our carseat fit through the holes perfectly. If you're concerned about this, I would head into BRS and simply ask a salesperson to demonstrate the product with your carseat. Also important- the Bundle Me washes quite well. Only downside to this product for me-and it's a minor point- is that I sometimes preferred carrying my son in a Snugli while running certain errands. When we got out of the car, I would put on the Snugli and load baby in, but then needed to wrap up with warm blankets for the walk into the building, since he was only wearing indoor clothes. Not a concern when you're bringing the carseat infant carrier inside, which was most often the case for us.

As for safety concerns, I was willing to accept the information below from the product description. And where the well-being of my child is concerned, I was comforted to know that the Bundle Me prevented his catching a chill throughout our cold New England winter.

"In line with JJ Cole's commitment to child safety, the Bundle Me has been tested to FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard) 213 requirements. All tests passed on the child restraint system, indicating that the Bundle Me product appeared to have little to no effect on the performance of the child restraint system."

I would suggest the Bundle Me for anyone who has an infant car seat as opposed to a convertible car seat. If you can take the car seat out of your car, this is very useful. If you need to bring the child out to the car and take him out of it, you still need to bundle him up in something else. It's also really great for strollers. I love it and so does my son. He pulls it up and snuggles into it.

5.0 out of 5 stars How could I have done without this?, February 27, 2005

This review is from: JJ Cole Original Infant Bundle Me - Khaki (Baby Product)

Excellent product, saves time, and money! How? You don't spend money on snowsuits, sweaters, mittens or thick clothing, only to be quickly outgrown, having to be replaced. I put a hat on my son, and put him in the Bundle me, where he stays warm and sometimes even sweats.
Please bear in mind that you do need a hat.

It fits well in the Graco Snugride infant carseat, and I think it should be okay in other seats. I like it that my baby can go out in whatever he is wearing at home, so long as I put him in this. When it's warm in the car, in the store or when I reach home and I don't want to disturb his sleep, I unzip at the sides as appropriate - as little as or as much as I want.

The one problem I see is that I usually tuck the sides of the cover round the sides of my sons head. However when he is active or simply playful, he beats off the cover with his hands, and I usually have to calm him so he leaves the cover in place before I venture into the cold. If you have a very active baby you may want to bear this in mind.

It's becoming a favorite shower gift from me to friends. It makes life easy for me and the thought of going out in the winter months is less daunting.
