Product Description
Product Description The award-winning Snuzzler provides the ideal support for baby's back and head, adjusting upward as baby grows. Keeps baby perfectly supported and comfortable in any seat, and in any season! The soft terry cloth material provides comfort to baby all year long, and is perfect for warmer climates. The unique contours work easily with all harness straps, including 3 and 5 point harness systems. The Snuzzler transfers with ease between all infant seats to provide support in car seats, strollers, jogging stroller and swings. No need to thread straps! To stabilize wobbly newborn heads, the lower portion of the head support overlap the body support cushions. The head support adjusts upward as baby grows and it can detach from the body support to be used on its own. With padding only on the sides, not behind baby, the Snuzzler does not interfere with the safety of car seat harnesses. Crash tested for safety and Machine washable for easy care.
Amazon.com Review
Parents may want to give their infants the Snuzzler for the luxurious comfort factor alone. But what will really make them happy is the fact that the award-winning Snuzzler provides gentle support for baby's vulnerable head, neck, and back, keeping her stable and comfy in the car seat, stroller, swing, bike trailer, backpack, and bouncy seat. The plush terrycloth is reversible to smooth, woven fabric, so baby can sit in comfort and style any time of the year. The soft support cushions fit all harness systems, with no need to thread (and unthread) straps when transferring Snuzzler between seats. The Snuzzler Is Different
Other support products do not actually support a baby's head. Parents cringe at the sight of their sleeping baby's head cocked practically at right angles to her body—the Snuzzler prevents the head flop, and keeps baby's entire torso in the proper posture. How It Works
Switching the Snuzzler between baby seats (car seat, stroller, bouncy seat, etc.) couldn't be easier or more intuitive. Open-ended strap openings allow caregivers to drop the Snuzzler right into the seat, pull the harness straps through the openings, make sure the head support is set at the right height (adjust height with Velcro tabs), and there you have it. Ready for baby! Crash Tested for Safety
If you've done your parenting homework, you know that adding fluffy, squishy things to your baby's car seat can compromise her safety, as the harness straps may not fit as snugly as necessary with all the cushioning around baby. Have no fear, Kiddopotamus knows all about baby safety. Snuzzler has no padding behind baby for the safest harness fit. It has undergone rigorous crash tests by accredited United States agencies to ensure that it conforms to federal standards. Snuzzler Grows with Baby
The clever head support element of the Snuzzler is detachable and adjustable (with Velcro tabs); as baby grows, the head support moves right along with her, unlike all-one-piece supports. The head support can also be used on its own. Award-Winning Support
Among its accolades and parent kudos, the Snuzzler is also the recipient of several awards, including the 2005 Pregnancy Magazine Buyer's Guide Award, the 2003 iParenting Media Award, and the 2003 iParenting "Hot Product" Award. Machine Washable
What's the point of baby gear if you can't throw it in the laundry basket? Of course the Snuzzler is machine washable (cold water, gentle cycle. Line dry).--Emilie Coulter

 Does what it's supposed to do December 14, 2008
Elizabeth A. Logan
When my baby is in her car seat, this product keeps her head from jiggling around. It's nice and soft but a bit warm for Florida. After she had a crying fit in the car one day I picked her up from the car seat and she was soaked in sweat. From that day on I removed the bottom part of the snuggler and just kept the head part on the "cooler" side. No problems since then. I recommend it.
 Not as expected December 12, 2008
R. Frierson (Grapevine, TX)
I did not find this product very useful. When I initially put my baby in it, I thought it would work great. I noticed on several occasions when she had fallen asleep, it did not support her head. It did make the carseat more snug and warm which is nice since it is pretty chilly outside. I would not recpommend this for warm weather.
 MUST BUY!!! November 20, 2008
No Bull (Texas)
I purchased this item wishing it would secure my newborn's fragile little head and neck better than the typical head support that only encircles the upper portion of the newborns head....AND it was the best purchase I ever made!!!! It's soooo comfortable looking that I wish they made these for adults. My son whom is 2 months old, has to sit in his car seat when we pick up my pre-schooler at lunch time AND my 1st grader at the end of school ... so I needed something that would safely secure my newbie on our many car rides. And did I mention?... super duper soft!!!!!!!
Great product November 16, 2008
Riliec
Great product, but i only used the part for head support since my son was so big. I defdinitly recommend this product.
Should not be used in a car seat November 13, 2008
D. McNeil
I purchased this item first for a friend. Her son's head was flopping around in the car seat and this worked well to stabilize his head.
I am now expecting and purchased this for our car seats. My husband and I had a car seat training session and installation at our hospital. The person providing the training said that we should not use this in the car seat, since the car seat was not safety tested with this in it. He said that anything that came in between the baby and the car seat should not be used. So, we are going to stick with only using it in strollers and bouncers.
