Traveling Toddler: BACK IN STOCK BY 5/14/08

All you get is a strap. It does work, though....BUT: when you are boarding, your car seat will not fit through the aisle in the cabin. So you'll need to unstrap the car seat and carry it on board. That's the only thing I didn't like about this idea. It's great getting trough the airport, but you need to unstrap when boarding and re-strap once you get off. Overall, a good product.

My wife and I recently traveled with our two year old twin girls. The product works exactly as advertised, with just two minor compains.

1 - My wife had a really hard time balancing the weight of the toddler + car seat + suitcase. She had to push hard on the extended handle to keep it balanced which was akward. I was able to hold it a little lower which made it easier.

2 - You really need a very sturdy suitcase to use with this strap. We had two suitcases; one sturdy, one a little more "light weight". The light suitcase's wheels struggled with the weight and the handle flexed quite a bit! The sturdy suitcase (a Kirkland business carry-on case) had no problems.

Overall, we are satisfied with the product.

Yesterday, I ordered the traveling toddler online through Amazon. It was shipping from Happy Mothers, so I went on their site to track it. When I did, I realized they were sending me a completely different item! One called the Tote-a-tot, which looks like a cheaper version of the same idea, with some kind of back pack thing. I had to call Happy Mothers, and then they had to manually adjust my order so that I would get the correct item. Now, it will take 6-7 days just for them to ship the correct item. Hopefully, I'll get the correct one!

This strap really did work well for us. We just made sure we had a rolling carry on with wheels that were in good shape. You simply attach the car seat to your luggage with this handy strap using the latch straps already on your car seat. It really is a genius idea. It made catching connecting flights a lot easier with our 19 month old!

I bought this to take my twins to NYC. I liked the idea of the Gogo Kidz Travelmate, but the price was too high and you still needed to carry a big diaper bag. I got 2 of these and they work great. Took about 2 minutes to adjust the fit with the car seat, it took literally seconds to get them on and off. 2 things I liked most, my daughter was in her car seat and strolled all the way to our seat and then I had a carry on filled with books, snacks and diapers so I had everything I needed. Buy it now, it is super strong, easy to use and my kids loved strolling around in it.
