The new collection (Graco) at Target

I spent some time looking at the new collection of seats (covers) at Target today and I have some feedback for Graco.

TO GRACO: USE SOME OF YOUR FABRICS (that are SO cute!) ON THE NAUTILUS!


Stand-Alone Carseats/Booster Seats

Nautilus-- I expected to hate the Wilkes pattern. I expected to look at it and say, "Ew! Boring brown on gray?", but I didn't. I actually liked the Wilkes pattern. :eek: It is a brown suede-like fabric that feels rather nice. It doesn't feel cheap at all. I liked the subtle pattern in the tan fabric too.
I don't especially like the brown and gray (plastic) combination, but it didn't bother me too much. In fact, if I need a new cover, I think I will order the Wilkes pattern. :duck:

MyRide-- I also expected to hate the Bartlett pattern. Was it my favorite? No, but it wasn't too bad. It is gray and light gray, with a light aqua piping and an infant pad that has light aqua on it. When the infant insert is taken out, it is BORING, but it isn't too bad. :)

Turbo-- I loved the Let's Go pattern. Loved it, loved it, loved it. It is boyish without being too boring. It is grown-up enough that a big kid wouldn't mind it. PLEASE, GRACO. RELEASE THIS PATTERN FOR THE NAUTILUS!


Travel Systems

Lowery pattern. I liked the stroller, hated the carseat. The stroller has the green panel down the center, with solid brown sides. It is fairly cute! The carseat is all the green pattern, and it is too much. If the carseat was solid brown, with the colored panel down the center, it would be cute. I also liked the taupe plastic on the stroller. THE NAUTILUS should be available in the taupe color plastic. Then it would blend with tan or gray interior cars. :whistle: PLEASE, GRACO. RELEASE THIS PATTERN FOR THE NAUTILUS! (but make it like the stroller is, with solid sides).

Little Wonders pattern. This was cute. I liked the green and brown together and the dots are cute. I wish the Nautilus were available in the dark brown plastic. :whistle:

Little Hoot pattern-- Cute, but it is like the Lowry pattern- the stroller is cute, the carseat is not. There is TOO MUCH of the owl pattern on the carseat. A panel down the center, with solid sides, would be better.



So, Graco. I know you have it in you. Make the Nautilus available in plastics other than gray (PLEASE!) and make some cuter covers. PLEASE.













My Target had a TON of online returns, but they were only marked down 15%. There were a bunch of other Graco travel systems, a Peg Perego highchair, a whole bunch of nursery furniture items, and lots of other loot. I didn't look too closely at any of the returns except for the Little Wonders pattern stuff.
