Go Mama Go Designs Wonder Bumpers, 38 Pack Review

Go Mama Go Designs Wonder Bumpers, 38 Pack
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Pros:
Easy to use and attach
Foam filling cushions impact when heads bump against the rails
Soft velvety/microfiber-like material
Attractive
Reversible colors
Stays in place
Machine washable

Cons:
Exposed white zipper teeth, slider, and steps.
Tedious to wash.

Neutrals:
All wonder bumpers are the same length of about two feet.As the only cushioned alternative to traditional bumpers, these command a hefty price. Fortunately, they perform the job needed. They're easy to attach to the 1.5" rails that I have, possibly even 2" wide rails by stretching just a bit, but not to larger corners. Each bumper arrives flat. One side pink; one side brown. It can be zipped around a rail on either side. This will be useful for either gender babies. For example, I can use the pink sides for a girl or the brown sides for a boy (or I could squeeze out another hundred bucks for a set of blue bumpers, which I'd rather not do.)

The crib I have has rails that are longer than two feet. For those rails, the top part of the rails will be exposed, because of course we want the bumpers placed where the baby will actually bump its head. Since I have exactly 38 rails, I would need to purchase additional bumpers in order to stack two on top of each other if I was concerned about appearance. I'm not.

The entire zipper is white, and is exposed. If I place the zipper so that it faces out, then the set doesn't look so great, but I can't have it face in, because I don't want zipper teeth marks on the baby's forehead. So the solution is to put the zipper to the side, and hope that the kid doesn't spin the bumper around.

It's great that the bumpers are machine washable. It's not so great that in order to wash them, I have to open the velcro flap on one end and remove the flimsy foam insert because that piece is not washable. Actually, removing it is not so bad, but putting them back is a bit of a chore. I don't expect to be washing all 38 of them very often, though, and I think I'd prefer removing them over having warped foam fillings.

Some other minor quality issues: There were a few loose threads on the bumpers, such that when I first opened the package, I wondered whether someone just slapped two pieces of cloth together with a piece of foam inside. (Which, I know, is essentially what it is,) but for the price, you almost hope that it would be a little better sewn, without fabric twisting to one side, or having an exposed zipper, or having loose visible threads. Again, it's a minor nitpicking issue right now, because as soon as I snipped the threads and placed the bumpers on the crib, all I could think of was, 'Gee, I wish I had purchased this set first and not wasted my money on the traditional bumpers I got.'

BreathableBaby CribShield Mesh Liner - White Review

BreathableBaby CribShield Mesh Liner - White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product gets two stars from me for two reasons1) my son likes to sleep up against the squishy side (more comfortable than having his head pressed against the crib rails), and 2) the satin that goes up over the side lengths is nice.

However, I don't like 1) each of the 4 panels are much shorter than the sides of the crib, 2) the short panels are strange and the velcro is in locations that just don't work, and 3) because it is 4 separate panels there is no coverage in the corners and there are gaps the perfect size for baby legs and arms to get stuck.I will have to install new velcro on the short ends to anchor those pieces in place.

I think that it is overpriced for the quality and design of the product.The idea is great.However, I wish the there were better pictures of this product online and that there were more products like this available.

I was looking everywhere for bumpers that would provide more protection than the traditional wrap around ones.I am glad to stumble upon Wonder Bumpers.Fantastic idea!It covers the entire rail though mine has longer rails in the back, but I just push them up to where I need it.It is made of very soft material that is reversible.Also provides some extra cushioning which makes me feel less worried about my little one bumping his head.This product is especially great for parents of medically comprised children with head injury concerns.

The cons - well, it is a hefty price for bumpers.I like the material though the quality of craftsmanship could be improved.Uneven stitching, hanging threads...In my set, I found 2 bumpers where the seams were coming undone.Though I just have to say that the Go Mama Go customer service is fantastic.I called and they will be sending out replacements the same day.

Overall, it is the best product out there in terms of my needs so I was happy to purchase them.

I ordered this, and the color is great, but the spacing between the ties makes it very difficult to tie evently to the crib without bunching and loose parts where baby could potentially smother. Also, when ordering your bumper insert, make sure the one you buy is quilted/sewn through to avoid bunching of the cotton or wool inside.

Natura Organic Crib Bumper Pad Review

It isn't beautiful, but this organic bumper keeps my boy from sticking his legs out of his crib. And it's organic, so it won't off gas vile chemicals into my wee boy's lungs, or heavens knows what if he gums on it.

The ties seemed a bit too long to me (anything long enough to fit around a neck, I shorten)...so you may want to nip a bit off the edges.

Go Mama Go Designs Wonder Bumpers, 24 Pack Review

Go Mama Go Designs Wonder Bumpers, 24 Pack
Average Reviews:

I find this to be a great product for my son as he would constantly pull on the traditional bumper and I was afraid he'd get trapped underneath it.I tried going without any sort of bumper but the lil' man would bonk his head on a crib slat in the middle of the night and be woken up.I like the fact that the pads are reversible (blue/brown) and are easy to install.Another plus is that you don't have to remove the Wonder Bumpers when changing the sheet or mattress pad.When my package arrived, several of the bumpers (on the blue side) were caked with dust; this was disappointing as it curbed my initial enthusiasm for this (expensive) product.Another interesting observation is that there does not seem to be great consistency in the padding provided by each individual slat cover...some are definitely more padded than others which resulted in me strategically installing the more padded slat covers when my son needs them most.
