    We love the Sungtime ones here - some of them are that polar fleece but we always buy their cotton winter ones that are lovely cotton and so warm. Summertime they also make a 0.5 TOG one that is all cotton. Myer and DJs have them and they are about $30 cheaper than the Grobags but just as good IMHO.

    I found the grobags best for when my girls started using sleeping bags at 4-6 months as they have the poppers to clip up the arm holes to make them not so big. Also they are really nice and breathable. When they were older we rotated between grobags and snugtime, reason being the girls worked out how to unzip them LOL

    I have the Merino kids ones and I love them. They are pricey, but sooooo worth it. Because they're made from Merino wool they breathe and you can use the same one for any temperature between about 18 and 30 degrees, so you don't have to buy different ones for each seasons like you do with the ones that have tog ratings. We bought 2 of them when DS was about 3 months and the sizing is supposed to take him through till when he is 2. That's pretty good value in my book. If you google Merino Kids you'll find their website which takes you through all the benefits. But personally I can't recommend them highly enough.

    These were the ones I was thinking of! I remember someone I knew posted about them one day but couldn't remember who it was!

    Oh the Merino Kids one sounds awesome!!! What a great idea.

    I have grobags... I used them for Oskar and now Elijah is using them, so well worth the money for sure! I got the 6-18 month and then the 18-36 month ones in all 3 togs. I do love them and they have made things so easy! I did buy a cheaper one from Best n Less and also one from Myer and didn't use them after the first time. The Best n Less one was really small for what size they reckoned it was and the Myer one.. can't remember why but didn't like it.

    I have tried grobags & didn't like them so much. My 2 are up for sale on ebay right now.
    I bought Ryan a sleeping bag from Best & Less (Baby Baby brand, $24.95) and in my opinion it's excellent. I love it and he sleeps comfortable, warm, snug & happy every night in it.
