Re: Tote-a-Tot. WDYT? LIP

  • If looks stupid, but OMG it seems like it would be so helpful in an airport if you're going to install the carseat on the plane.
    I used to be a big deal.  Now I'm just old.

  • We have yet to fly anwhere with C, so I can't speak from experience... but it seems like a good idea. I'm not sue if I would ever put my baby that close to an airport floor (just for air quality and the germs), though. And $30 seems expensive for two straps. I dunno. I give it a mixed review.

  • I've flown a few times with Sam already, but she was in the infant car seat, so I just attached it to the stroller. I've heard about this thing before and heard it is awesome. Not only does it transport your car seat, you can just sit the kid right in it...GENIUS! lol

    Im inclined to agree.  We've flown with G three times.  So far we haven't gotten him a seat but we'll have to soon.

  • Seen as they make special trolly wheel thingers to attach to your car seat and this is way cheaper than that, but does the same thing, I give it a hearty thumbs up.

  • Hmm, not sure.  I'm wary of putting 2 small bags together in this same manner without them going all over the place.  I'm not sure that I'd be comfortable with my kids strapped on that way.  I'd rather strap the carseat to the luggage, and then a) wear the baby/kid, or 2) put the baby/kid in the stroller I'd also be taking. 

    Oh, I should mention that I'm the clumsiest person you will EVER meet, so normal people would probably be fine with it.  Wink

  • I've never flown with J (I've never flown in my entire life either) but if I did ever fly (which I probably won't) I don't think I could put him in that.... I just don't trust it lol

    Although, it does look like a genius invention haha

  • Genius! We have one, and we love it. Before we also had a GoGoKidz and a PacBack... We have 1 Tote-A-Tot and 1 Travelling Toddler and love them.

    (ETA: We travel cross-country and internationally with the kids 3-4 times per year so we were always looking for solutions for transporting our car seats, too)

    That is awesome that you travel so much with your LOs! Good to know it can actually work. When I first saw it, I was totally in SM's mindset that I am way too clumsy with my luggage to trust myself with it! I'm pretty sure DS would have a blast in it, though!

  • I saw someone use it at the airport and it looked great!  The kid was having fun too.  I think it's the same concept as a snap and go, so it shouldn't be a problem!

  • my problem/question would be about the bag size.  In my last few flying experiences (past 3 years) that size bag doesn't really seem to be the acceptable carry on size anymore...

    If my bag qualified for carry on size though, I would def do this!
