These mailers arrived at the same time today.



Babies R Us. She isn't super ERF or anything but, pretty good, IMO. :thumbsup:

Now THAT is special. Really REALLY special.

I just wish wish wish that BRU would show a 3 year old RF. They go on and on about how they are the exclusive retailer of this great seat with a 40 pound RF capacity... and then don't even show it in use. Any kid obviously older than 16 months is shown FF in it. And why so little? Why not a 6 year old still in the harness?

Wow:eek: I think someone needs to be contacted about that little baby all wrapped up in an aftermarket product in a ffing only car seat. They were probably fooled by the fact that the nautilus is a 3 in 1 and figured it must be a convertible like all the other 3 in 1s. (My walmar thinks it is a 3 in 1.)

The ad is for the aftermarket jacket/blanket thing. Oy!

The headrest is way too high. The jacket is super bulky. The harness is SUPER loose and falling off the babys shoulders. The baby is no more than 6 months old.... There is just so much wrong in that picture. :mad:

I was just going to post about this today. I work for Buy Buy Baby and told them that the picture was horrible, unsafe, and plain dumb. They just looked at me like I was stoopid. Anyhow that picture is awful. They are fully aware that the Nauti is NOT a 3 in 1 RF/FF combo. That was just how they wanted to take the picture. FWIW, that baby could have fit into a Key Fit 30, Snugride 32, or a Chaperone which would have been at least a "safer" (not saying any aftermarket product is safe) way to advertise this "travel swaddle".

F)*!

Now I will have yet another product to try to talk people out of.
