Windsor Peak Press Product Details |
Amazon.com Review
Congratulations, you're expecting a baby! What you may not be expecting is all of the requisite gear you "need" to look after your dear bundle. Fear not. Denise and Alan Fields, authors of Bridal Bargains, are here to tell you what's super and what's silly, and how to find it at the best price. You'll learn all about how (and where) to shop for a crib and dresser (including how to get European styling at reasonable prices), what you need in bedding and what can be skipped (a hint: no baby requires the $200 quilt!), which clothing brands are safest and least expensive, and how to shop for monitors, toys, car seats, strollers, books, videos, and more. The authors have field-tested every major brand (and several of the minor ones), and they provide star ratings and annotations at the end of every chapter. A helpful feature in each chapter called "Wastes of Money" will steer you away from $35 Baby Air Jordans and frilly diaper stackers that match your bedding. If that's not enough, they offer a money-back guarantee: If the book doesn't save you at least $250 in baby expenses, they'll refund the price of the book. Well researched and written in a witty and comfortable tone, Baby Bargains should be required reading for every safety- and money-conscious parent-to-be. --Rebecca A. Staffel

Summary: Very helpful! 2008-10-03
Comment: Love this book! I am an older mom to be...first born. I have a busy career and am not a huge shopper. Although I like nice things I am very practical. I was completely overwhelmed & shocked at the amount of items on the market today for babies. This book enabled me to basically stay home, research, & register online which was so much less stressful! I highly recommend this book for the moms or dads that are looking for the latest in style, convenience & safety. Oh, and I was planning to purchase the Consumer Reports book on baby but saw a review from someone that said don't buy it buy the Baby Bargains book instead! They were right.

Summary: Fabulous Resource 2008-09-16
Comment: As a first-time parent with about the littlest prior knowledge of the baby world, this book has been invaluable! It incorporates consumer reports, recall info, customer feedback, price-to-value, and other testimonies to come up with ratings for the different products.
I feel confident that the products this book has helped me choose will be of good quality for the money I spend, and it's been reassuring that when speaking with veteran parents they seem to echo a lot of what has been said in the book about various products.
Great purchase, highly recommended.

Summary: stand-by for any first-time parent! 2008-09-15
Comment: Very thorough, with great reviews on almost anything one can fathom with regards to expecting a baby.
Thick book with lots of info, not an easy skim, but that's great for us who LOVE to read as many reviews as possible before settling down for major (and minor) purchases!
