View Full Version : Size of leg openings on various shopping cart covers?

I have needed a shopping cart cover for a few months...I have considered the floppy seat, sewcuteboutique and covers4kids, but I'm having a terrible time choosing. I'm happy to go with the floppy seat (now that BRU has a tolerable blue fabric) because it seems more padded than the others.

I haven't seen any of these covers in real life. The comparison chart on burdickbaby.com indicates the floppy seat doesn't actually cover ALL of the seat because the leg openings are oversized, so a baby's legs could still come in contact with the cart. For those of you who own the floppy seat, is this the case??

For those who own a cover from sewcuteboutique or covers4kids, do the leg holes prevent this from happening, or are the leg holes oversized as well?

I am a bit of a germaphobe and figure if I'm going to buy a cover, I'd like it to cover the whole seat!!

ETA: I have a second question too. Is your cover too easy to pull off the cart? (Is your baby/child able to tug it off?)

Thanks!

Not one of the ones you were looking at, but I have one of these.

It is made by my friend a WAHM, she has lots of fabric choices and would happily find something for you if you dont like her selection!

How do I get in contact with her? She doesn't have any prices listed and I'm wondering if that "rice bag" one is sold out! I'm getting a matching tote bag from another retailer! I'd be really interested to know where she got that fabric - they don't make it anymore!

Doesn't 2 Red Hens make one too? try www.2redhens.com they should list retailers so can find prices.

Her email address is [email protected] and I'm pretty sure they are still $35 USD...can't remember if that includes shipping or not. But she donates $10 of every purchase to the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. She also has a yahoo group that she updates frequently.
