I think a baby carrier thread is definitely a good one (possibly more if we wanted one per type), a car seat spotlight would be good too. I think someone talked about discussing registries (places to register/what to register for) so that would be another one, although kind of unconventional in terms of “product”.

Lol @meggyme I read @lovesclimbing post before I left work and had a list almost identical to yours by the time I got off the highway, but when I went to respond I forgot it all.

Anyone can start product spotlights. No need to go off the list if you think of something new! Tip: if you start one, put "product spotlight" as part of the discussion title. That will make it easier to search all the product spotlights.
In the below list, ones that have an X next to them and have already been created. To find them, click the "go" button in the search bar. This will take you to the advanced search. Enter "product spotlight" in the Title search box and hit go.

Can we do a product spotlight for Nursery Chairs? I am a FTM and am having issues deciding what is best and if it’s worth spending extra money on this item, etc.
