Welcome back, babynames.co.uk reader!
Today we have an organisational product for you in the form of the Munchkin Backseat and Pushchair Organiser. Here is the official product description from Munchkin:
“It can be difficult to organise everything when you are so busy. But with the Munchkin dual-purpose Backseat and Pushchair Organiser you can make things a little easier. In the car, you can keep your toys, books, water bottles, nappies, wipes and other travel essentials in place while protecting your upholstery at the same time. Not only does it offer a smart storage solution to keep your backseat clutter-free, it also hangs from the front driver or passenger seats, keeping it scuff-free. This handy organiser works in the pushchair, too – just place it on when you need extra storage during long outings. Now there’s a place for everything and an easy way to access it.”
DESIGN
While the look of the organiser is not particularly interesting (it is black with the Munchkin logo on it), we feel that this simple design and colour will work perfectly with all car and pushchair colour schemes. There are no bright colours or patterns so it integrates well – it makes it feel part of the pushchair or car and not a separate item. It also uses a fairly universal system so it will fit most cars and pushchairs.
But it markets itself as an organiser, so how well does it organise? It is compartementalised for the storage of anything you or your child may need, including toys, drinks, snacks and wipes. There is a large top pocket with a sip closure, two sizable drink holders, a deep pocket for bulky items and a wide bottom pocket for nappies or wipes. These pockets can also be used to hold books or iPads, so it is able to accomodate bigger items as well.
We feel this is perfect for an emergency baby stash, and it is a great thing to have during long car rides. Our reviewer had to pull over and change her baby on the back seat, and she said it was perfect having the changing materials right there and all in one place. It is also great on pushchairs as it folds up nice and small when it’s not needed.
MATERIAL
The organiser is made up of a sturdy plastic and also mesh netting for the top compartment. The straps are made from a tough fabric, and the plastic buckles are the standard release type. All in all, it is a good quality product that will withstand any hard tugs and be resistant to tears. Because it is made out of smooth plastic, it is both durable and easy to clean. If any stains get onto it, a simple wipe with a damp towel will be enough to make it clean again.
SPECIAL FEATURES
This organiser is full of great organisational features that are sure to help out any busy parent. With it’s many hidden zips and compartments, it will help keep any car neat and tidy, as well as allowing you to take anything you make need with you while you are on the go. Not only that, but the organiser also acts as a sort of protector for the back of your car or pushchair. It will keep the backs of car seats and pushchairs scratch free, which we think is a neat little bonus!
VALUE FOR MONEY
The Munchkin Backseat and Pushchair Organiser currently retails for £8 on Amazon.co.uk. In terms of value for money, we don’t think you can get another organiser that is of the same good quality for less money, so this is a great choice if you are in the market for something like this. We think this organiser can be used for many years because of its durable material and you can use it even when your child has grown up, or even if you don’t have a child! There are always bits and bobs in cars that need organising and this is a fantastic organisational product for anyone.
OUR VERDICT: 👏👏👏👏
In summary: This is a fantastic organiser that can hold a huge amount – it is perfect for any busy on the go parent and can be used for many years, making it great value for money.
