Cool Wazoo ~ Review and Giveaway - Closed

After we had our son, we quickly found ourselves overwhelmed by the amount of "equipment" needed to bring just to leave the house. Seriously, why couldn't there be an easier way?

That is why I was pretty excited when I met Ginelle at the ABC Kids Expo. She finally came up with a product that not only served multiple purposes, but was also folded up to a small manageable addition to any diaper bag. The Cool Wazoo was created first as a swing cover for the playground. Living in Las Vegas, I immediately knew there was a need for such a product.

Not only to protect our children from germs, but more importantly to protect their delicate skin from the heated seat. Did you know on an 80 degree day the swing seat can burn your child in as little as ONE second?

"I used a laser gun to measure swing seat temperatures and found that on 80 degree days, the bucket swings were at least 150 degrees. At those temperatures, babies can get third degree burns within one second! So I invented a product that not only offered a physical barrier between the child and the swing, but I incorporated an inner lining that actually reflects heat back to its source." - Ginelle, Inventor, Founder, and President of the Cool Wazoo

The Cool Wazoo is designed with a fabrics that actually reflects the heat away from your child.

"It's crafted with needle-punched mylar bonded with hollow woven thread to provide superior insulating properties. The hollow woven thread resists conduction, while the poly film reflects radiant heat back to its source. Translation: Cool Wazoo makes swings and surfaces cooler because it reflects heat away from your baby's delicate skin." Cheerful Child.Com

Seriously, how smart is that? But in addition to being smart, it is also extremely functional. In fact it does the jobs of 5 different products. It is a:

• Car Seat Cover
• High Chair Cover
• Swing Cover
• Grocery Cart Cover
• Large Changing Pad

You can even fold in some diapers into the Cool Wazoo, fold it up, and have all you need for a quick trip out.

This is a brand new product. It actually just hit the market this month. I have been using it for just about 3 weeks now, and I absolutely LOVE it!!

I love the coverage it offers on the swing. I love how easy it is to your in the grocery cart. I love the water resistant backing. I can wipe the germs off before I get a chance to throw it in the wash. I love the fact that it offers a spot for my knees to lay on while I change Squish's diaper. I can't tell you how many times I have gotten up with wet knees from a playground diaper change.


This is a great 5-1 product. I love it so much, I fully plan on giving them to my friends as a baby shower gift. The Cool Wazoo easily makes it onto Squishy's "Must Have" Baby Product List. This would also result in a Squishy Rating of Extra Squishable!
