Nice items
By Amanda Greer
I received this as a gift. I love the storage bag it comes with. And good to recognise I have all these items when they are needed. The nail clippers are so much better than the other 2 pairs of baby clippers I owned before getting this. They are easy to hold and use. I have used and like the hairbrush too. I haven’t employed the nose bulb yet because I already had one from the hospital. The medicine dispenser with the nipple looks like a good idea but haven’t applied it either yet because my baby doesn’t like bottles yet and hasn’t necessitated meds. I am glad it has a baby toothbrush that will come in handy later on. I am glad I received this item.

Not impressed, but the stuff works.
By purple rose
The thermometer is of exceedingly cheap quality and looks like it will break easily. The tiny medicine bottle likewise looks like it will crack at the drop of a hat. The handles for everything else are thick and sturdy and I be grateful for that the nail clipper has such a thick handle as well, but I merely expected better from such a highly reviewed product.
