I have lived in cold climates for each of my kids, and have hated the dreaded bundle up and squeeze into the carseat routine. It makes traveling so much easier now that I can leave baby without a big bunting and know she'll be warm and cozy. The zippers are great - almost 6 months of use every single day and not a problem. I have washed it several times and it looks like new and has held up wonderfully. I have used it on windy days, when I was a bit sceptical about it being windproof, and it stood the test. Moving it from the carseat to the stroller is a sinch with the velcro closures in the back. I don't have any cons to list this has been such a great item for us.

I love this item. It really works well in February winter weather. I bought 4 snowsuits and I haven't used one for our newborn because snowsuits are tedious. I am able to put her in her car seat, put a blanket inside and put a hat on her. Forget the suits and mittens. I cover her with the cover and she sleeps in the dark and warmth soundly. Also, it prevents people from touching her all of the time because they can't see her when I cover her up. The only problem is that this item didn't fit well with the newest Peg Perego infant car seats. I made it work, but it doesn't fit perfectly. It worked with the old Peg Perego car seat, but not the newest one. I loved this item so much that I've made it work, though. It isn't perfect, but it works. It actually is so much better than Peg Perego's cover, which came with the car seat. This cover has made my life pretty easy. I found it easy to put on the Peg Perego. I love the color. It zips up easily. It is soft. Isabella seems to like to snuggle in it. It is comfy for her. Be aware, though, I live in Salt Lake City, UT. Our winters are mild. If you have colder winters, you may want to add a snowsuit. Still, it is worth the money! I am glad I bought it.

I also own the Bundle me w/fluffy heavy winter liner we could not have lived without it! I was excited to see this trendy,light-weight, weather resistant version for spring. I'll admit I would not have purchased this had it not been on the wrong shelf at $39.99. My $59.99 dismay soon evaporated-it is so sleek and functional! No more struggling with bulky snowsuits, jackets and sweaters (which never seem to fit baby anyway) Easily unzips so as not to overheat. LOVE the little pocket for binky. Velcro back openings make it easy to switch to stroller (No need to buy two!)

Perhaps if I hadn't already had a different type of bunting, I wouldn't be so disappointed with this one. My sister loaned me her Eddie Bauer bunting when my son was born. She will be having her next baby any week now, so I had to return it to her which meant I had to buy a new one. I saw nothing but great reviews on this product, so I picked one up.
br /
br /First of all, I followed the washing instructions, washing it separately on delicate and drying it on low, and it ripped at the one seam!! Based on that alone, I will be returning it.
br /
br /Aside from that, having used a bunting with a different design, I am not thrilled with this one. Part of the point of using a bunting is so that when you're in a car where you have heat, you can open up the bunting on a longer drive so baby doesn't overheat. This bunting zips down both sides to the bottom (by the way, zipping/unzipping is tricky with a baby kicking around; the zipper gets stuck in the material a lot), rather than down the middle front (that style zipper was NEVER a problem). Then you have this thick cover at baby's feet and nowhere to go with it, as the bottom of the carseat is up against the back seat of the car! So you either have to rig it so it is up the back of the seat and tucked under the headrest, or you have to leave it on baby's legs.
br /
br /Also, the top of this bunting does fold over so that baby's face isn't covered unless you want it to be, BUT...my 5-month old has no problem picking it up and pulling it up over his own face. He did it this morning on the way to daycare. This bunting is too thick for me to feel comfortable with him doing that. And I can't be reaching in the back seat to pull it down off his face!
br /
br /There is no disputing that the concept of a bunting is great, and that this particular bunting is toasty warm. It is wonderful being able to put the baby in his carseat and strap him in safely w/out a snowsuit being in the way, or having to bundle him up before going out and unbundle him every time you get to your destination. But I don't think the design of the Urban Bundle-Me is great and I actually think this bunting is TOO warm (even with the bunting open on a long car ride the other day, my son's back was all sweaty when we took him out of the carseat). After calling several stores and looking at all my options at Babies 'R' Us, I ended up ordering a new Eddie Bauer All-Season Bunting from Target.com (which cost less than $20 including shipping). I can't wait till it gets here. I will be returning the $60 Urban Bundle-Me as soon as I can.

We originally registered for the original bundle me. When the urban bundle me came out, we changed our registry. Now that our bundle of joy is here, I'm glad we have the bundle me. We are able to buckle our baby in without needing a heavy coat or bunting, making the straps fit better (and safer). Also, the outside of the urban bundle me is waterproof...personally put to use during a rain storm just a few days ago. I will definitely be making a Bundle me lite purchase in the near future...I just wish they would come out with a Lite in the Urban style.

I just started using this product and both my son and I love it. It's very warm and no more fighting to get him into heavy winter clothing gear. This was a great idea and well worth the money. It made getting out the door a little easier in these cold winter months.

this bunting is soft on the inside and like a breaker on the outside. it's well constructed and a good buy for a newborn. it looks and feels better than other carriers out there.

This Bundleme Wasabi is wonderful!! It is so convenient, I would not want to be without it for any baby. The inside of it is very soft and comfortable. It keeps my 6 month old daughter toasty warm which is much needed here in Chicago. I like it so much more than having to put on her bulky coat everywhere we go. I just lay her in this, slip on a hat, zip up the Wasabi and go! I highly recommend this if you live somewhere where the temps go below the 30s.

Although expensive, the JJ Cole Bundle Me is a great investment. I receive a lot of compliments on the one I use for our daughter. No more worrying about scraping baby blankets along dirty cars as you maneuver in the garage with the car seat. Our daughter appreciates having less bulk in her seat as well! The Bundle Me is the best quality of car seat covers you'll find. Buying the cheap brands only costs more in the end when you buy the authentic Bundle Me.

br /My only warning: NEVER buy from Target- their return policy is meant to trick the consumer. Even with receipt and tags, their merchandise will not be accepted after 90 days. Buy your Bundle Me from Amazon or the JJ Cole website. Trust me, I've registered for my wedding and baby with Target. We've lost over $500.00 due to their ridiculous return policy. Learn from my mistakes!

I can't tell you how much I love this product!!! I live in Colorado and we've had tons of snow/cold weather this winter and now I can't even imagine zipping my 4-month-old into a snowsuit. It's so easy to slip her right it, zip it up and go! I have appreciated the flap that can fold up or down--this covers her head as we walk from our car to the door when it is snowing or windy.
br /I chose this urban style over the original because I liked the way it looked, but after having used it a few months there are a few more reasons I like it better.
br /First, it washes beautifully! The liner stays soft and looks the same as the day I bought it--unlike sherpa fleece. Second, the outside fabric is waterproof. Once I spilled a small soda on the Bundleme and the soda literally beaded up and poured right off! It never soaked into the fabric and left a stain.

I purchased this item for my 6 month old and I love it. It replaces the need for a jacket and I can unzip the Bundleme when we are out shopping to keep my little one from getting too hot. I still put a hat on him when its very cold out but I do not have a problem with the wind blowing the top flap off (I have seen that complaint in other reviews) as my car seat has a canopy and that has never been an issue. The material is very soft on the inside and my baby is very comfortable in it. I would highly recommend this product.

We love the Urban Bundle Me!! It is a wonderful product and I would highly recommend it! I was so frustrated with the blanket falling off the car seat all the time and this is the perfect solution!! We live in California so the Urban Bundle Me was a better option than the traditional one (which I have also but use in the stroller) it keeps my son nice and warm and shielded from rain and wind. The only negative I think is the zipper which could be better quality.
br /It fit my Peg Prego Car Seat perfectly.

I absolutely love this, serves it purpose for keeping baby warm. It is also very stylish. I didn't have to use a coat in the winter, if anything it worked too well.
