Listen to the reviews- Just buy items separately Sep 26, 2010
By AnnaC I vaguely remember reading reviews for this product when I registered for it. In my pregnancy induced happy haze, I disregarded people's complaints about some of the item in the kit. I should have listened, so I ask you listen now. You are much better off buying items that you will need separately. It seemed like a good idea to just get this kit and cover all my bases. I'd never had a baby before, I figured that someone had figured out what I needed for me and put it in this kit. This is partially true.
In the first few months, you will need a digital thermometer, a bulb syringe/aspirator, nail clippers or file, and hair brush or comb. These are the things from the kit that I have used so far- my daughter is 9 months old. So, out of 17 items, I've used 5 or 6. The other 11-12 have not been touched.
Of the items, I've used, I didn't like most of them. The bulb syringe is impossible to squeeze and offers no suction- useless. The thermometer seems to take forever to take a reading, which is no good with a squirmy baby. The nail clipper have been okay, I still use it, but I bet there are better ones you can buy separately- I've been meaning to get some. I had to remove the plastic cover from the clippers in order to see baby's nails better- the first time I used them I cut my daughter's finger because I couldn't see them well.
I like the brush and comb. But I would like any brush and comb, I'm sure.
I've ended up buying a new thermometer (that I love) and a new aspirator (that I also love). Yes, you will probably spend more money buying items separately, but that is because the stuff that comes in this kit is cheaply made. If you are an expectant parent and trying to plan for your first baby, just get a good rectal thermometer (I have a Vicks that I like) some good nail clippers or a tiny nail file, and maybe a little brush for baby's hair. The hospital will give you a good bulb syringe when you deliver. That is all you will need the first few weeks, and you should have quality products that work well. This kit will most likely disappoint.

Useful, but not great quality Oct 27, 2007
By Mommy 3 Some of the items in this kit are great: soft baby toothbrush, medicine spoon, brush. Some are very outdated and hard to use: nail clippers, comb. The case is OK,but the items look cheaply made.There are better products on the market.

useless extras Jun 26, 2008
By D. Yassanye Some of the items here are ok but there are a lot of useless items. You'l never use the rattle, medicine spoons (dropper already in any medicine you buy), and the clippers. The nasal aspirator is ok because it has the release valve, good for cleaning. I also use the thermometer, which is nice and small for rectal temps.

Total Waste of the Plastic It's Made Of Sep 27, 2010
By M. Becton This is the worst kit of anything I have ever owned. The comb and hairbrush are the only items that aren't too cheaply made to work.
- The nasal bulb no suction what so ever.
- The scissors don't cut.
- The nail clippers are crap.
- The medicine measure isn't needed because, really, any medicine you purchase for your child comes with a measuring/dosage device.
- The cheap thermometer in mine is at least three degrees off and inconsistent (tested by taking my own temperature), if you can get it to work at all.
- The toothbrush is total crap and not made for babies.
I cannot emphasize how disappointed you will be if you purchase this or receive it as a gift.
Instead of buying this, purchase yourself a good thermometer, baby nail clippers and a decent nose-sucker (either the bulb type or fancy aspirator).

Would rather buy items seperately Mar 23, 2009
By AJ This kit does have a lot of useful items, but they are not high quality and don't all work properly. For instance, the nasal aspirator was nearly impossible to squeeze rendering it useless. The nail clippers got rusty after being exposed to boiling water. The measuring spoon with the stopper was helpful in drop feeding my son for a couple of days. Overall, I'd rather spend a bit more and buy higher quality items individually.
