Britax Rock-a-Tot Si 
Posted: 18/11/08
'A GREAT PURCHASE'
Strengths:
Its very light which is helpful especially as your baby gets a bit bigger. Its very easy to adjust the straps. Its comfy for the baby. 2 ways to fit it into the car so good for those with short seatbelts.
Weaknesses:
The handle takes a bit of practice but it is easy peasy after a short while.
Overall:
A fantastic little car seat... we bought the silver cross venture one too & its much better & half the price because it is so much lighter & more padded for the baby. Its also much easier to fit into the car so we can get on our way quicker.

Avent Express Bottle and Babyfood Warmer 
Posted: 18/11/08
'A POINTLESS PURCHASE'
Strengths:
Cant think of any really
Weaknesses:
It takes ages to warm the bottles up - far longer than it says. Just takes up more space on your kitchen counter. You have to turn it off at the plug because if you dont its always on - electricity drianer.
Overall:
Not worth the money - have resorted to boiling the kettle & popping the bottle into a jug of water to warm up - takes less than a minute & I think it cost me about 29p in Morrissons.

Avent Single Feeding Bottles 
Posted: 18/11/08
'VERY EXPENSIVE & THEY LEAK!'
Strengths:
Nice ergonomic design easy to hold & good for baby as they dont let too much air in.
Weaknesses:
They leak everywhere out of the plastic white ring making half the baby's food go onto their clothes meaning we have to get her changed nearly everytime that she eats she is always drenched!
Overall:
Not a good purchase. Am persevering because of money spent on them but wish I had gone for something else!

Silver Cross 3D system 
Posted: 18/11/08
'GREAT OVERALL PURCHASE'
Strengths:
Fantastic looking. Very comfy for baby. Very easy to manouvre around tight spaces. Very sturdy & will last through. Most things you need come with it. Adjustable height on handles make it easy for me & taller husband to push around.
Weaknesses:
I dont find it easy to fold it up with the pram liner in place so is a bit of a faf getting it set up & dismantled everytime we want to use it. Rain cover provided does not fit when using with car seat so had to spend £30 on one from Mothercare. Basket is not easy to access when in pram mode.
Overall:
We are really pleased we chose this - sure it has a few downsides but they are just picky ones.....have not found one other that comes close to it & its a great price too.
