Great for new baby and getting sleep! |

| Although I only used the swaddler for a few weeks, I don't think I would have gotten any sleep without it! Many babies like the feeling of being snug - like in the womb, and mine was one of them. Without it, she would startle herself with her jerky movements and wake up crying - every 5 minutes or so! OMG! Using this, she started sleeping a few hours. Whew!!! After a few weeks she was more active, her nervous system had matured, and she didn't want her arms swaddled anymore. We still found it helpful to swaddle her body so she felt snug. At 8 weeks now, we no longer use the swaddle, but since it detaches from the sac, we still use the sack at bedtime. I think it has become part of our routine and helps her understand that it is bedtime - time for the long sleep! ;D I love that it came with a bigger sac because we will be using it when she outgrows the swaddler one - which will be soon! Oh, and this is much easier than swaddling with a blanket. My baby was 10 pounds and 20 inches, and most of the blankets didn't fit her right for swaddling, so she would easily kick them off. |
Great product and price! |

| We are really appreciating this set!! Our baby was born a week ago, and we are using the smaller sleep sack all the time. It's great for sleeping, especially with the swaddle attachment, as well as in the car seat since it unzips from the bottom. Swaddle attachment also helps keep the leg area from riding up, as we have a wiggle worm. Wish we had gotten 2 sets for when one is in the wash! But getting the 2 sizes - one for now and one as he grows into it - makes it a great deal, too! <br /><br />Our little guy was 7lb 12oz and 19", dropped to 7lb 1oz, and the small one fits fine. This product is also helpful since we hadn't gotten <8lb clothes since our toddler was larger and needed the 8lb+ clothes the entire time, so feels like it fits really well, but still room to grow.<br /><br />Quality seems good as far as construction goes. When you wash, the velcro on the swaddle can get stuck on other things, but it's not a huge deal. Also check when drying, as if it gets bunched up it may be damp in the middle (or line dry).<br /><br />Would definitely buy again, and recommend it to others!! |

| We really love this sleep set. The sleep sacks are the perfect weight-- our son (3 months) is never too hot or too cold. Good quality-- we've washed ours a number of times and never had a problem. My son still fits in the smaller sack (he's almost 14 lbs) and it really helps him sleep. Only downside is that a very wiggly baby can definitely get their arms out of the swaddle part. Also, make sure you follow the instructions exactly, otherwise the swaddle part of the sleep sack can come up over the baby's face. But if you use it correctly, it doesn't budge, even with a wiggler! (arms may come out, but swaddle will stay in place) |
So glad we have these! |

| Baby sleeps in it every night. We got it as a gift off of our registry & I am so glad we registered for it. <br />The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the swaddle part was so bulky we never used it, but getting the 2 sleep sacks was worth the price! Our baby is now 2 months old (11.5 lbs) & we still use both sacks-the sizes are generous so you can use them a long time. <br />We have had zero problems with them in the washer/dryer. <br />They are very soft & comfortable for baby. |
Love this item! |

| The pros of this product are obvious: Keeps them warm and safely on their backs. No fussing with receiving blankets trying to keep baby swaddled. Can swaddle with arms in or out. And it is also lightweight so baby doesn't overheat with regular sleeping atire. The only con I can think of is that the velcro tabs on babies back tend to ride up and are very stiff and hard against baby's neck. But just a quick adjustment and it doesn't bother them anymore. |
Very comfy |

| These sleep sacks are great. They keep our son warm without getting tangled in a blanket. The only bad thing is that the swaddle one for newborns wasn't strong enough. He was able to pull out of the swaddle almost right after he was born. But otherwise they're wonderful. We're still using them 6 months later (although a larger size). |
This was a shower Gift |

| I had this sent right to the recipient, as she was registered here for her baby shower. She was thrilled when it was delivered to her door. I know she wanted this, so I can only assume it is a good product. [...]No problems at all. |
Good sleepsacks |

| The sacks work well. The swaddler ran a bit small for my newborn (but he's big). The small sack is perfect. They are both nice and light-weight which is great for warmer days. |
