Check out this review from a very satisfied customer;

"Having recently purchased a bed for my one year old, I was looking for a bed guard, but was having difficulty due to the style of bed we had chosen. This bed guard is ideal. Although my son is not using a bed full time, he does use it for naps. The tubes offer protection on both sides of the bed, and the product is great if you are going on holiday or your child is staying over somewhere, as it is small enough once deflated (folds to roughly the size of a beach towel). The product offered great protection for my child when he used the bed, they are easy use/inflate and come with an integrated bed sheet (additional ones can be purchased ). The tubes keep the bed sheets on the bed. Another bonus is the tubes ensure bedding/comforters remain on the bed. My son has been happy using his bed, and I feel that this is partly down to the product aiding in the transition from cot to bed."

So why not try it? - giving you peace of mind whilst reassuring your child - nothing else makes the transition between cot and bed easier.

Night night, sleep tight don’t let the bed bugs bite!

Check out this review from one very satisfied Oval Pod Owner;

Last summer our trampoline gave up the ghost, we had a standard round one which only lasted a few years and it was only used for a few summers so disappointed is an understatement.
My husband and I have no children but we have many nieces and nephews in the family who love to come and play in the summer, we also like to entertain and do BBQ’s for the family in the summer, so when the trampoline broke we just had to replace it so the kids would be amused.
After looking for another trampoline we decided to buy a better heavy duty trampoline that can be use by adults as well and not break after a few years, so we have now bought this Jumpking Oval JumpPod Trampoline that offers all of this.
It was fairly expensive but has fantastic warranties and we are positive that is will last and we have had so much fun already.

Jump King are a leading design company in manufacturing trampolines, with this Oval POD design they have excelled as it has a very different unique shape, which is oval and is 15ft long by 10ft wide.
Some maybe thinking this is no different to any other on the market, well I have to stress that it is made to the highest quality and all safety features are included, the best thing is this is very durable and gives a superb bounce ability, this is because is has over ninety supporting springs which are attached from the frame to the trampoline jump bed.
It has the performance of a rectangular trampoline, making is very easy to have up to four people at a time playing on it at any one time, which was never really an option with the round trampolines you can buy for the garden.
The shape of it has also benefited us, although it is bigger than the round one we had this sits perfectly at the bottom of the garden and does not take up as much space, this is because of the two flat edges that can sit closely to a wall of garage making the whole thing very compact, unlike a perfectly round version which took up most of the garden.
This comes with its own safety enclosure cage which stands six feet above the actual trampoline base, so it is perfectly save for children and even the odd drunk that may have a go.
Some of you may wonder how you actually gain entry into the trampoline when it is caged, well this is very simple the trampoline as an access ladder from the ground onto the trampoline itself, that ladder has three small steps up to the trampoline making it very easy to get on to it, the ladder is very easy for everyone to use the kids found it easy and even my granny had a go, so this is very easy to access.
Once you hit the trampoline itself you unzip the 6ft enclosure and crawl in, the zip closure can be closed and opened from inside and out side the trampoline, for added security you can also clip it shut with the additional clips supplied, we have never found the need for these but if you want to lock kids in so they don’t fall off after opening the enclosure door them selves this is a very good idea. This is also great for locking husbands in as they have no way of getting out with this safety feature.

BUILDING THE TRAMPOLINE
The trampoline arrived flat packed and in four very large boxes, I have to say me and my husband were like two kids in a sweet shop when it first arrived and we couldn’t wait to get it built.
Once we found the instructions is was very straight forward to assemble and took roughly forty minutes, that was to build the trampoline and attach the safety enclosure.
The build quality of this is very good and I have no doubt that this will be around for years, as it is made from large steel tubes which are over two inches thick and span the whole trampoline, making it very strong and durable.
The safety enclosure comes in one solid piece, it is made of a light weight mesh material that it rip resistant and weather proof, it is supported by six 6ft long brackets and brackets that bow outwards to give the whole enclosure extra strength.

MY OPINION

The oval design was very important to us as a family as we love to entertain in the garden, and having fun is one of the major attractions even for the adults, so this design of trampoline has not only fitted in perfectly but the adults and kids can play on it at the same time, we have had the round trampolines but we found only one person could play at anyone time as it always pulled you in to the centre of the trampoline and we had many accidents, so this has worked out very well as you can fit up to four people on it at a time making it very fun to play on.

All of the issues I had about safety has been resolved with this trampoline and I love the fact that adults can have fun too, I would class this as a professional trampoline although it is not sold as one, the bounce ability is fantastic and even my seven year old niece is becoming quite the professional and now wants to take up gymnastics as she has mastered summersaults and complex jumps, not that her mum is to impressed as she is getting pestered to buy one constantly and I have to say I have not seen as much of my niece as I have in the past few weeks.
I have to say I recommend this, yes it is expensive but is will last and you can have so much fun, even me and my husband have been known to go out and play on it, so my saying we bought it for the kids is a little white lie as we love it as much as they do.

Sounds good to me! RF

The Hippychick Hipseat Acts as a back support for the wearer (similar to weight belt/motor cyclists belt/lumbar support) and is a very effective way of redistributing the weight from the neck, spine and shoulders. The more tightly the belt is worn the firmer the support on both counts. The weight is spread around the waist, hips and pelvis and the support comes from under the child rather than weight being borne from above.

Health professionals such as osteopaths and physiotherapists have reservations about long term usage of carriers that require weight to be borne by over the shoulder slings or harnesses. These are very good for very young children but after about 6 months (depending on the weight of the child) they can actively strain the spine and muscles, adversely affecting one’s posture and pulling the back out of shape.

Throughout my career, I’ve seen patients suffering – often years down the line – from back problems caused by carrying their children perched on their hips. This is exacerbated by the fact that we often prefer to carry on one side and therefore throw the spine out of balance. The Hipseat provides a much better alternative in that the child’s weight is distributed evenly around the wearer’s body, which should result in a lower incidence of spinal and related problems.

The Hippychick Hipseat truly is a fantastic invention just check out this review from one very satisfied customer;

Sitting here now , I realise that I came upon this product at the perfect time. My Daughter is 11 months and has been walking around ( unsteadily) for about a month now. In the last few weeks she decided she wanted to walk outside and no longer wants to sit in her buggy. I was torn between letting her walk around whilst we were out and trying to push the buggy too, or risk having a screaming toddler for the time we were out because she was in the buggy. Or not take the buggy and end up with a very sore back from all the unsupported carrying necessary...

Enter the Hipseat. I decided to use this and let her walk when she wanted and therefore I could carry her without breaking my back when she no longer wanted to walk. It is fantastic and well worth a buy if you are in the same predicament as me. It has really helped with supporting my back and I always feel very secure wearing it and using it with my daughter.

I use it for popping into my local shops to a walk in the country and I make sure I have it with me all the time. It is very well made and comfortable, easy to use and looks smart too. It also folds up quite small when needing to store in luggage, or buggy basket and the handy pockets inside the belt (for passports etc) make it ideal for holidays.

A truly brilliant invention!
