...some have said that this unsafe, BUT these have met crash test safety standards (it even says that right on the packaging). Also, I see this one thin layer under the baby MUCH SAFER than a huge puffy jacket all around the baby (both under & over = 2 puffy layers included in straps) We have this and the original. The urban doesn't breathe as well as the original due to its wind/rain resistance, however that wind/rain resistance is a life saver in spring & fall rainstorms (where the Original soaks rain in)! |

"Started with the Original Bundle Me-Like this better" | 2008-04-03 |
| - Reviewed By kdubose@speakeasy.net |
| I started with the Original Bundle Me because I was using a friend's but she was also pregnant and needed hers back so I purchased this one and I like the JJ Cole Urban Bundle Me better. Here is why: the faux sherling on the original, was prone to pilling of the fabric and caught lint, hair and other debris. The original was heavier and a bit bulkier. I like the fabric of the Urban Bundle Me better. It's lighter weight and the exterior material wipes clean easier. Overall the product is great and does what it says, which is keep your baby warm. Having tried both the original and this Urban version, I like this better. |

| I CAME ACCROSS THIS STEALTH DIDNT EVEN KNOW A PRODUCT LIKE THIS WAS OUT THERE. I'M A FIRST TIME PARENT AND HATE HOW PEOPLE LOOK WHEN THEY HAVE ALL KINDS OF BLANKETS HANGING OVER THEIR BABY IN THE CAR SEAT OR STROLLER. I BOUGHT THIS ITEM I'VE USED IT WITH MY CAR SEAT AND IT WORKS GREAT. I LIVE IN THE DESERT AND THE WEATHER IS CRAZY AT TIMES. SOMETIMES ITS REALLY HOT AND THEN IN A COUPLE OF HOURS THE WIND KICKS UP AND IT GETS COLD. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW ESPECIALLY DURING THE SEASON CHANGE LIKE RIGHT NOW. IT'S GREAT BECAUSE I CAN UNZIP THE TOP LAYER IF IT'S WARM AND COVER MY BABY IF THE WIND KICKS IN. AND I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT CARRYING BLANKETS JUST IN CASE. IT'S NOT ONLY WIND RESISTANT ITS WATER RESISTANT AS WELL. EVERYBODY WHO SEE'S IT LOVES IT. IT'S A GREAT PRODUCT. AND I HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS. IT'S WORTH THE MONEY. |

"Good but like original better" | 2008-03-06 |

| We really loved this bundle me. It was easy to use, and kept my daughter snug and warm on the coolest days. She is on the smaller side and is about to grow out of the infant size any day now at 8 months. We bought a toddler bundle me original. It is even better. It zips up higher so I can surround my daughter's face with the blanket while the urban would only go as high as her shoulders. Also, the original's texture allows you to fold it onto itself when unzipped, and the urban was slippery and would inevitably drag on the ground. |

"Keeps Our Alaskan Baby Toasty!" | 2008-01-28 |

I got this for my baby shower and thought that since it was thinner than the regular bundle me it wouldn't be as warm. I was wrong. It gets rid of the bulk without compromising warmth. The first time we took our baby out in her bundle me urban I put a hoodie on her also. After 20 minutes the poor thing had beads of sweat on her nose! I now put her in it without any jackets or coverings. Last night we went out and it was -10 degrees. I felt her toes when we got into the mall and they were nice and toasty. It is also SOOOOO nice and soft on the inside and trendy and stylish on the outside. We get lots of compliments!
Wonderful product. I highly recommend it! |

| The Bundleme is great! My son is 4 months and we haven't had to struggle with snow suits. The Bundleme is warm and there is even a pocket to keep his bottle warm. Absolutely will purchase this in the toddler size when he gets older. |

| I love this product, it keeps my baby warm without using bulky coats or worrying about dropping a blanket on the ground. My baby does get hot in it when we are in the car for long periods but it is still great. |

"The Original Bundle Me Seems to Be Warmer" | 2007-08-07 |
| - Reviewed By mgfp13 |
I own the Original Bundle me and bought this new Urban bundle me for my cousin's baby. The Original Bundle Me seems to be warmer with the faux sheepskin on the inside instead of the micro-fleece on the inside of the Urban version. The faux sheepskin seems to be cozier for baby, too. When it is super cold outside, you have to add your own blankets inside either bundleme, but having the bundle me definitely helps keep the blankets where you put them.
One aspect of the Urban version that I liked better is that the nylon exterior of the Urban picks up less "debris" than the fleece exterior of the Original. The fleece seems to attract hair, dirt, etc. The nylon Urban is also rain/water resistant. The Original fleece one never seemed to get wet even though it doesn't make the claim that it is water resistant.
Another point to make is that I bought the Bundle Me Lite for the spring and fall months, but didn't really use it all that much. Unless you live in an area where the spring and fall months are cool for an extended period of time, I would just stick with the Original or Urban version. Here I guess the weather goes straight from Summer to Winter!
The whole line of BundleMe products is an AMAZING god-send if you have ever had to put a baby into a coat or snowsuit and then tried to put the car seat straps around them. I can't tell you which one will suit your needs more, just trying to help make your selection process more successful!! Whichever one you choose will definitely make your life SOOO much easier!

| This sleepsack keeps our little bundle warm & toasty on those cold san francisco nights. it is really easy to use & to move from the carset to the stroller. i do wish it zipped up just a little higher on the sides, but it's the best thing around we've seen. |

| This fit very easily into my daughter's Graco infant car seat. As the other reviewers said, it is very convenient and keeps my daughter nice and warm. Wind has not seemed to be a problem, but then I only carry her between the car and my destination in it. I would recommend this to a friend. |
