Baby Sleeping Bag

I want to get a sleeping bag for my new born, and have been looking around...n there are really limited choices/brands in hk.

I've found one that's relatively cheaper that's called The Dream Bag Baby sleeping Bag? I've found it online, they look really cute!! I've been searching on the net, found out it's from the UK, with positive feedbacks.

Just wondering, has anyone used it before?

Thank you!
 
I don't think that brands are that important. Most people love the grobag (I think you can get it at any of the baby stores) but they're more expensive. I usually just get cheaper ones which aren't ANY brand from Stanley. A sleeping bag is a sleeping bag and as long as it's able to keep the bub warm, then it's doing its job right :)
 
I would disagree that all brands are the same. I see some 'very cute' designs that are downright dangerous (head hole too big, so little one can easily slip down). Personally, I would always opt for Grobag who have tested the tog rating of their bags (so they aren't too hot for little ones) and where the head hole is a safe size.
Just my opinion.
 
thanks for all the information! Really appreciated! I did take a look at the grobag.. but they are quite expensive, and dun really like their designs....

I do aware of others "cute" & cheap bags that have big openings, and short length (restricted movements) .. but just found this one that looks decent.. and did some research online, sounds like it's a good choice... just wanna double confirm if anyone has used it before.

I might do some more research, and if no negative feedback, I think I'll get one.

Thanks to u all! =)
 
Yeah, I spent a lot of money on a winter Grobag, only for it to be warm half the time this winter. Plus, my son is 12 months now, but the bag is for 6-18 months, so he won`t get to use it next year. And soon I have to buy another sleeping bag (his third) to accomodate the warmer weather and hopefully will be able to find one that`ll last up to 24 months. Grobag is out because his size would be only good til 18 months but the weather will not have changed...So I think I will be looking for a cheaper but just as safe option.
 
i've a sleeping bag for sale which was used only once because my bub was born in hk's hot and humid summertime. it has an attached hood and the colour is blue. i can send pics if anyone is interested.
 
I use merino kids sleeping bags as well, one for summer and one for winter. They are more expensive than grobags but they are made of merino wool and they have two sizes only, 0-2 and 2-4 yrs and no togs, just a summer >18 C bag and a winter <18 C duvet bag. Not sure if they sell them in HK but go on to the website, they do specials all the time and it's cheaper to buy two bags at one go.
 
Just an update...

I've received 2 of my Dream Bags today!! For those who are in doubt about the quality... They are fabulous!!

The owner is so nice too! Will definitely get the next size up from her again!

Gotta put them to wash tonight and get ready for my newborn! Wish me luck! =)
 
I wonder what kind of grobags they are, because I was just at the Central store today and the ones I were looking at were still regular price($400). Do you know any more details about their sale?
 
It's just at a place in Ap Lei Chau, today tomorrow and Thurs. Not the Horizon Plaza store, the building next door. DCH building, 12th floor, unit D2.
 
I loved using grobags for my son...although we didn't start using them until he was at least 6 months... and we used them as an alternative to sheets as he used to move quite a bit and I was worried about him slipping under sheets. Prior to using the grobags we would swaddle him. Startle reflex and all. :-)
 
They are proper Grobag sleeping bags. They had a lot there this morning, a variety of sizes and togs and colours. And they were all HKD200. I bought 3 and they were going like hot cakes, so I don't know if there will be many left tomorrow.
 
I like those sleeping bags they are so convenient and my son loves them; he is 2 and still persists on putting them on every night. I want to sew my own sleeping bags now as I find them way over-prized, especially the grobags, which I don't think are that great. I like the German brands like ALVI or Sterntaler, those are really good! But unfortunately you can't get them here in HK. And since HK is ususally warm I will sew a simple one, a non-padded one. Just a knock-off from one of his old sleeping bags that way I can adjust the size myself ;)
 
I got a sleeping bag from Wing On that has long sleeves because my little one's arms were getting cold.
It's a little short in length, but it seems to do the trick.
