Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
I need a bundle me or something for the stroller - i have a Graco metrolite, not sure that matters. Is the JJ Cole Bundle Me a good one - does it keep them warm enough or should I spend more on something like the Toastie Toddler ones?

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
I got a 7 a.m. enfant one and its super toasty, we love it! It has a hood built it.
A little on the pricey side, but I figure it will last us a few years while DS is in the stroller..
Not my picture, but this is what it looks like

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
Someone had posted about this recently because I remember having the same question. I believe it was Ophelia who shared the awesome product. JJCole (the same company that makes the bundle me) came out with a car seat cover that goes over the car seat. It comes in khaki and pink. It does not go underneath your baby which I LOVE because my DS is ALWAYS hot. You can take it off once in the car and the temperature is regulated if the baby gets too warm. I ended up buying it and I am so happy with it! My nicer looking then the Kiddopotamus. They sell it at BabiesRUs!

I posted about this - it's the JJ Cole Car Seat Cover and it's awesome!
But it's only for the car seat; doesn't work so great with strollers and defnitely doesn't work with the City Mini.
If you want it for the car seat, I 100% recommend it.
For the stroller, I have the toddler bundle me and I love it! I like that it's not too thick, but still very warm.

I agree with the 7am stroller bunting. It's pricey but worth it. Blows the JJ Cole stroller blanket out the water

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
Had to google Toastie Toddler and 7am... over $100... not worth it to me at all.
I just got the JJ Cole Urban Bundle Me and am very pleased with it.
DS is 17 months and it fits my Perego Pliko 3 great. Has a good variety of strap holes to fit many strollers. It's very toasty inside, water and wind resistant on the outside and washes great (it's already been thrown up in  ).
I got it because I want to try to stay active myself and walk outside when it's not too cold. We live local to library and supermarket and I like to walk when I can. I did not want to deal with the blanket always slipping down and getting stuck/dirty on the wheels.
Came in handy at an outdoor tree lighting when the line for Santa was over 1/2 an hour, outside! Took DS to NYC on a day/night in the 30's and he was toasty warm.
Here's a pic of DS sleeping in Central Park where he's just in his fleece jammies and a onsie. Totally toasty.
Everyone's priorities and needs are different so you'd have to judge for yourself. But me, even if I lived in the city and had him outside every day walking blocks or took him to an outdoor winter wonderland parade every weekend, the Urban Bundle me would suit us just fine.

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
What age would you use the toddler one up to? I want to get one for Xavier but I feel bad not gettng one for Rylan. They're in a double stroller. Would you put an almost 3 year old in one of these or are they to babyish?

I don't know about the bundle me, but the 7 am one is huge, I think it can last until he's 4' I can almost fit myself in there.

I'm assuming this fits on most umbrella strollers?
How is it held on?

Same exact one I have! Love it and it's nice and toasty.
April, the back has slits that have velcro. You put the harness/straps through and close the velcro. So that holds it on to the sroller. But on many strollers (not the City Mini though), you can also use the elastic strap and the foldover top part to go over the top of the stroller seat and that holds it on even better.

The urban bundle me for toddlers says age 1-3 so if he's not bigger than your average three year old, you can at least get a season out of it. Even if it sits lower for Rylan and it covers his legs/waist, it will still be more cozy than a blanket that can fall off or let some draft in.

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
I have the regular Bundle Me on our Metrolite, so I'm sure the Urban would fit just fine.
The regular one kept DD1 toasty and is keeping DD2 warm on outings. I've thrown an additional fleece blanket under it too.

AHHHHH SORRY! I figured it was you or Ophelia bc you 2 always have the best suggestions!

Re: Can u recommend your Bundle Me/Stroller warmer?
I just went out and bought the Urban Bundle Me and can't wait to put it on the stroller.
Massapequa had it in stock and I used a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon.
Thanks for this post.
