GoGo Babyz Kidz Travelmate: Review

Most moms worry, once their baby grow up and are ready to move onto a “bigger” seat. after all, its not really easy to lug a huge car-seat with a 1 year old through the airport. However, if you’re travelling alone with your kid and intend to take a flight, this accessory is a great life saver. The Gogo travelmate keeps one hand free and makes life easier while getting in and out of the airport.

GoGo Babyz Kidz Travelmate: Pros & Cons

Pros
Converts your “big” carseat into a stroller that can be easily transported through the airport.
Ensures your child is secured to the seat and not roaming around through the airport.
If you do not intend to use your carseat ON the plane, just check-in the whole thing as part of your luggage.
You don’t need a stand-alone stroller, especially if you only need help ehile travelling through the airport.
The handle bar adjusts to 2 different heights to suit your height
Easy to store when not in use.

Cons
With the car seat attached, the GO GO Kidz may not fit through the x-ray machines at some airports. You may not be able to roll your carseat down the aisle of the plane (carseats are becoming wider nowadays).

GoGo Babyz Kidz Travelmate: Review

Once you buy the product, make sure you spend some time getting used to this product.

Practice attaching this thing on your car-seat and taking it apart, with your child on it, before you go on your first trip. This will ensure your child doesn’t roam about while you’re setting this thing up.

You may have to assemble/de-assemble this thing at the airport, possibly going through security (if they won’t hand-check it). So PRACTICE doing all this with your child in the seat.

The “quick release” wheels on the gogo Kidz Travelmate makes it easy to remove the gogo Kidz Travelmate from their car seat, just in case, when going through security (if the car seat will not fit through the x-ray machine). However, the manufacturers still recommend that you ask security to take the car seat and gogo Kidz to the side to be scanned with the hand wand. Some TSAs may not agree, but it never hurts to ask!

Assembly Instructions

Its easy to set this thing up, just read the instructions provided. Here’s how its done.

1. Place the bottom of the carseat onto the two little “pegs” of plastic at the bottom of the GO GO Kidz so the car seat is evenly centered on the pegs, with the back of your car seat butting up against the big plastic square of the GO GO Kidz.
2. Take the plastic strap on the right side of GO GO Kidz unit and insert it through the back of your carseat (behind the padding), so it’s between the padding of the car seat and the plastic back of the car seat.
3. Put the plastic strap out the other opening on the opposite side of the carseat and feed the plastic strap into the silver ratchet mechanism that’s attached to the left side of the GO GO Kidz unit. You can even latch the GO GO Kidz strap into any of the safety mechanisms (snaps or latches) that you may have behind the padding of your carseat.
4. Pull up on the silver ratchet several times and it will automatically tighten the strap securely around the car seat.
5. If you have to remove this thing from the car-seat, just push the black release plastic tab on the ratchet and pull the plastic strap out while keeping the release depressed.
