Most ridiculous baby products

Time to share-- what are the craziest baby products you've seen?

I just ran across this stroller called the Origami. It's the "world?s first power-folding stroller: at the touch of a button, it folds itself. It?s also the world?s first cell phone-charging, mileage-counting, LCD-sporting stroller, with generators in the rear wheels that charge the stroller as you walk. Plus, the Origami has daytime running lights, pathway lights for low-light conditions, and sensors that detect when a child?s in the seat (so it?ll never fold by accident). From power folding to cell phone charging, it?s everything a stroller should be."

All for the very low price of $850! I mean really.. the idea is interesting, but can people not be bothered to fold their stroller up?

    I've seen that spiffy folding stroller, dh is a nerd and likes his gadgets but didn't think it was cool. LOL I on the other hand, did.

    LOL I mean I think the idea of it is cool I guess... but just the fact that it's $850 makes it unappealing.

    Oh and here's a clicky for the daddle-- too funny!

    That Daddle is hilarious!!
    Most ridiculous I've seen are those metal frames you can snap a carseat into. So that you can pull your kid, in their carseat, through the airport, like a suitcase. I laughed so loud when my sister sent me a pic of those when I was preggers. Sorry on my phone so I can't add a link.

    Omg..all of these are pee-my-pants funny.  Though I kinda like the stroller idea, too.  I still laugh at the ridiculousness of it, but I definitely wouldn't turn one away if it knocked on my door. 

    Again, I believe this is ridiculous, would never purchase one, and I laugh at how stupid it is, but the daddle makes sense to me.  Don't shoot!  I say this because I put DD on my back a lot as she is always hanging on me and finds her way back there so eventually she gets a ride or a bounce and it's a pain int he butt to hold her.  Again, would never buy one, would laugh at someone who did, but I understand it. 

    The one thing that is a no-no to me is the pads for kids that mbgreen posted.  Gotta let my kid be a kid and rough up those knees and hands. 

    I'll come back when I think of something baby related that is so dumb.  There are lots out there...

    The craziest part about that stroller to me was the weight! I think I saw it weighs something like 40lbs?!?! I mean who cares if it folds itself up, how the heck are you getting it in and out of your car! I can't think of any crazy baby stuff though :/. DH thinks the "leash" backpack is awful and I kind of agree, but who knows what my opinion will be when DD is running all over the place!

    DH saw the origami one time while helping me research double strollers.  Of course he wanted it.

     I have to say that I kinda liked the ride on vacuum for kids. DS loves trying to sit on mine while I vacuum...lol! 

    However the birthing dolls for explaining the birds and the bees is my fav so far!

    Wow! I don't really know what to sayIndifferent. I have seen some weird products, but these really take the cake. My older son loved the "thong diapers" though. He is still laughing.
