I have a 33 lbs 2.5 year old I just need something for grandmas house for a weekend trip and between this one and "kel gar' any input?

I am not sure what Kel Gar is, but I took my son out of this when he was 18 months old. My older son was in his bath until he was 2...if there is no bathtub at grandmas, then this will do fine - the slippery part shouldnt affect a child this old - but he will be tight in there!

I didn't like this tub at all. Expensive & way too small for a toddler. No room for them to move around. It should indicate that this is best for infants. Try the inflatible tub from "One Step Ahead"...much better for toddlers.

My son stopped using his around 2.5 years just because he started to like being in the entire tub and "swimming" in it. Its a nice tub. my main Issue is there isnt a drain plug. So you have to dump iit out and that's hard because the water is heavy when filled u p. if your child just like sitting in the tub this will work but if she/he is tall there won't be much room in it except for sitting. Itd be cheaper yo just bathe in the kitchen sink for the weekend. Haven't seen or used the kelgar to compare.

In terms of weight, I'd say don't go over thirty pounds. In terms of animals, don't go over two full grown cats or a small dog. You also have to be aware of what your animal friend is willing to tolerate. While this is a sturdy carriage, it isn't a kennel, it has it's weak spots. Never leave any animal unattended in this stroller. It is meant to be supervised at all times. If your animal is prone to panic attacks or easily spooked then be cautious when taking them out in something like this.

My grand daughter is almost 2 and well over 25 pounds...we are in the process of figuring out the conversion to a big girl bed ONLY because she is, head to toe, just fitting in the bed now. Luckily she never sleeps all stretched out. LOL A pretty good deal, since she was only supposed to be in it til she was about 6 months old. That said, she jumps in it all the time and is pretty rough. It squeaks a bit, but that's the only thing I can find at fault.

You should check the company recommendation for safety reasons. In our case, our grandson is 24 months old, and enjoyed using it recently for a hotel stay.

I think you will find that the vest is too big for her. My 3 year old is 33 pounds and 39" tall. It's a little big on him and I will not use it at this point for him but think in 6 months it would be ok for occasional use. Out of curiosity, I tried it on my 64 pound, 52" tall 7.5y. Although he's passed the weight limit (I wouldn't use it for him), it still fit. I would not attempt it on a child so young unless you would otherwise go without a car seat as I'm sure it's better than nothing. I suggest the Diono Radian, it's a great foldable car seat with high safety ratings. Get the simple one without all the extra supports, we use that for travel for our 3y old.

Sorry to be first getting back to you now. I recently had a baby (hence the double stroller) and am first really emerging from the fog.My 2 and half year old is about 34-35 lbs and he loves the stroller. I know what other people have said about it being too small but my son loves it. He thinks it looks like a spaceship "pod" and likes for us to "blast-off!" together.My only complaint with the stoller so far is that it hard to hear my older son who sits in the front as we are strolling. He feels "far away". It is also difficult to get in and out of elevators and certain doors. We live in the city so this might be a problem specific to urbanites like myself.Hope this is helpful, if not too late! Sorry to be first getting back to you now.

My 2yrs old grandson is small for his age (he's more the size of an 18 mos old) and he has a great time with it. He plays with it everyday to go "buy his groceries" and make me dinner.

My grandson is 7 yrs old and 80 lbs now and can still use his but I think that I would suggest 70 lbs and under. He got his 2 years ago so he probably was around 50 lbs. My granddaughter has one and she's 5 yrs old and around 40-50 lbs, (a little chubby) but she really rocks on hers. This brand is the best out there, I've checked them all and they're the best.

It's a little big for a child unless the child is big for his/her age. I would go with something smaller.

Haha, isn't it so irritating some time???? I would say that the 1.5 to 5 year old would enjoy this the most. I must admit that I sat on it and took it for a spin and it was a bit of fun. (I am grandma)

It's light under 25 pounds my grandma was able to pull it over the Toilet the Times we didn't put it back :/ the bars are Cold I wrapped a towel over them because that was bothering her

I can't compare the two however our little granddaughter LOVES her chair/ottoman that we gave her for her 1st birthday. She was two 'big' sisters 3,4- that also love it- has held up well for the 3 of them!

If you want her to use it as a push walker, I think the large one would be better. We got the small one for our 1 year old and it's too large for him to ride, and the handle was too short for him to use it effectively as a walker.

As long as she can sit up on her own, hold on to the handles as needed she should be fine. My daughter and I started about age 2.5 and I felt she was secure. Good luck!

Our granddaughtr is almost 50 lbs. and no problem. It should be good for even more weight too. It appears to be a good one.

I have both the Baby Bjorn and this one. The Baby bjorn is made of sturdier plastic and has more of the base touching the floor. It's a little more narrow than the Summer but the back is slightly taller. The Summer potty seat seems plenty stable and is wider across the "seat" (the part their tush would be sitting on). My daughter is really tall and big for her age (37 lbs, 42" tall, size of an average 4-5 year old). I would say she fits on the Summer seat better and her knees are at a right angle when she's sitting. On the Baby Bjorn, we had to put something under the potty seat to raise it up because her feet were falling asleep. I bought the Summer as a back-up seat but it's just as good and much cheaper!

My son who is just about 2 and 27lbs fits perfectly on this and has fun gliding around the house. My 4 year old girl is about 40lbs scoots on it but she's pushing being a little to tall and big for it. The small one is for little kids. If they have larger sizes that would be better.
