(More customer reviews)For the most part, I absolutely love this shopping cart cover. If you research the reviews all throughout the Web, you'll see that for the most part, parents with this love it, too. It may be that they are tryng to justify the exhorbitant cost relative to others, but I've used this for about a month now, and have to say its really quite nice. I get compliments on it all the time when my baby (7 mos) and I use it.
The most significant benefits of this cover is that:
1. Generous size. It fits over Costco's huge shopping carts (you know, the ones that can seat 2 children).
2. Very plush padding throughout. The first time my baby used this, he fell asleep in it. The cushioning along with the full-length pillow (think body pillow for your baby) make this super comfy. The pillow has a strap on one corner that attaches it to the Buggy Bagg, so baby can play with it, it can be moved around the seat area to support baby, and you don't have to worry about it falling onto the floor and getting dirty.
3. One-handed operation. It folds up kind of like a duffel bag, so you can easily place it on the shopping cart or off the shopping cart with one hand. Take a little practice, but definitely do-able.
4. Storage. It has 3 zippered pockets, two smaller ones and one full-length pocket. Easily fits keys and a wallet.
There are some things about this shopping cart cover that I don't like.
1. Price. It's really expensive. Granted, it has alot of features, but unless you spend HOURS in a grocery store, are they really necessary? If you can afford it, great, but if not, the only real reason to purchase this over other shopping cart covers is its generous size.
2. Pillow is nice, but hardly necessary. You could easily use a rolled up receiving blanket to replace the pillow.
3. Storage is good, but not adequate to replace your diaper bag. Some folks claim they don't need a diaper bag because they use this. I've tried that, and IMO it doesn't work. First of all, you can't really bring your shopping cart into the restrooms to change baby, so you'd have to haul this out. Much more convenient to have a diaper bag. Secondly, it doesn't hold nearly enough. If I'm in a quick trip to the store, then fine. Otherwise, I use it more to keep my keys and cell phone handy.
4. My biggest gripe of all are the horribly poor quality zippers. For the price of this item, the zippers should be YKK high quality zippers, not the cheap, easily broken ones they use. The second time I used this, I tried putting my Munchkin Travel Diaper Changing Kit (colors may vary) into the large compartment, and the zipper broke. Completely unacceptable, and the company only gives you 90 days to send it in for replacement. I plan on going to my seamstress to have either velcro sewn in or the zippers replaced with higher quality YKK zippers because for now, that large compartment is just flopped open and I can't keep anything in there.
I would buy this over any other shopping cart cover because for me, the pros outweigh the cons. But I would NEVER pay full price for it because the cost to repair the cheap zippers needs to be factored in. If you can get by with less padding (you can definitely survive w/o the pillow) and don't mind still bringing a diaper bag, then you might pass on this one. However, for me, the generous size, the padding (my baby is only 7 mos), and the one handed operation are benefits I'm willing to pay for. But then again, I didn't pay full price.
