Re: Found a new alternative to the Bundle Me! - UPDATE with quick review
UPDATE - A quick review:
So we got this yesterday and I tried it out on the way home. First, I love that the top zips open like that because I can leave it attached on one size and just flap it over in the car - he's basically completely uncovered so no overheating in the car. Then just zip it closed to go back outside.
Second, I have a fairly large carseat and at first I thought it wouldn't fit, but it does! Since the whole bottom is elastic, it will fit smaller carseats well too. I have a Chicco Keyfit 30 as an FYI (I had another showercap style cover and it doesn't fit all the way around the top of the carseat which is annoying and unattractive).
Third, the material is the same as the urban bundle me's - very nice. The khaki color is very nice in person too - definitely unisex.
Fourth, the packaging says it works on infant car seats and standard size strollers. I didn't try it on my city mini, but then again I'm not sure if that's considered a standard size stroller. Should be, so I'll try it out.
So all in all, I really like it. I will definitely have to still use a hat for DS when it's really cold since the opening for the face/head is large enough that I can see him getting cold. But there's a lot of space to put a blanket on the baby inside the closed cover so that's great too.

For the Vista, you can also just get the toddler bundle me! I have it for my city mini and it works great for the stroller and DS can use it again next year since it's long.

Re: Found a new alternative to the Bundle Me! - UPDATE with quick review
hey all ... so i went looking for the new JJ cole bundleme but they were sold out - i got the BRU version for $19.99 and it looks good! of course, we havent tried ds in it yes since he went to sleep before we could but for half the price, i think its a great deal...
for all of you using this new version, do you take the visor of your infant seat off? it has to come off, right? we have the Keyfit 30
