Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow

Item #: 21997

Napping crumpled over in the car seat or stroller? This patented travel pillow prevents stiff necks and slumping. The cutout headrest provides stability, while the contoured bolsters keep little noggins upright. One side of the pillow is cooling cotton, the other cozy fleece, providing year-round comfort. Choose 0-12 months (with pacifier tether), 1-4 years, or 4-8 years. The two larger sizes have magnetic front closures for added chin support. Imported. A OneStepAhead Exclusive!

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

I bought this product even after reading reviews, just had to see for my self, and sure enough the 0-12 is way to small for infants. The design is a great idea, just needs a bit of resizing.

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

I have a three year old so ordered the larger size. It doesn't work at all. Her head still slumps to the side and falls forward. The magnetic closing doesn't stay at all. I have to prop her up with other pillows just to make it work. Would not recommend. Total waste of money.

Too big and bulky for my newborn's head and neck even though it was rated for 0-12 month. I don't think it is worth it.

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

I bought it because my son (6 months old) has torticollis and I need to keep his head straight in the car seat and this just work great. I read the other comments and I bought the 1-4 years size and fits perfect for him.

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

This head support, as other reviewers have stated, runs small. My 5 month old cannot use the 12 month size at all. Our 2 year old actually uses the 4 -8 year old size and the magnets don't stay together well, allowing his head to fall forward anyway.

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

this item runs very small. I've had this for at least six months and have only used it twice. I ordered the 1-4 but it is too small for my 2 year old. This product does not prevent her head from falling forward which was my biggest concern. I would not recommend this for children in a front facing carseat. It probably works well for infants in carriers or seats that are reclined. It is very soft and well made.

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

I bought one of each size for our recent road trip (California to Oregon, 11 hours). Both kids slept soundly with their head supported thanks to these pillows. Our 11 hour car ride took closer to 20 with all the stops and these worked well the entire time. Best part was tossing them in the washer when we got home.
Highly recommend these!

Comments about BenBat Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow 4-8 Yrs.:

My daughter is 2, therefore, I ordered the 2-4 size. Well it was too small. I then ordered the 4-6 size and it was perfect. Her head doesn't go from side to side, although, it still falls forward in the car seat.

The idea is great but I ordered the 1-4 size and it was to small for my 9 month old twins. They are not big babies either so I'm not sure what size is appropriate.

Q:
Hello. I was just wondering what type of car seats this would be compatible with. All of the car seats I have seen say not to use after market products with it, many voiding the warranty if aftermarket products are used. Would love something to keep my daughter's neck from bending over.
Asked on 10/2/2012 by Shannon from Canada
Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  Information regarding add-on items, and warranty voiding items will vary greatly between car seat manufacturers, so for specific information you will need to check with the manufacturer of your car seat. The Baby & Kids Travel Friends Pillow does meet and exceed all U.S. guidelines set forth for products of its type. The item is designed to be universal and should work with any car seat or stroller.
