Convenient although size didn't work for me
November 6, 2018
I was excited about this product so that my older kids (5 and 3) could "self serve" hand wipes when we are on the go, and also make room in my diaper bag.
My first challenge was the container depth. The wipe container is only about 1/2" deep so it holds fewer wipes at a time than I realized; it won't hold anywhere near a standard full pack of wipes. You either need to refill manually by inserting wipes, or use a smaller 10-pack or 20-pack of wipes. I usually don't buy these, but found one floating around, though the rectangle of the wipes pack was a bit large for the oxo holder, so I had to fold the wipes package a bit for it to fit. I later tried loading wipes manually in by pulling them out of a larger container. This way seemed to fit better, but resulted in frequent needs for refills and did not prevent my still needing to carry the 'big pack' of wipes elsewhere.
My other challenge was finding a good place to put it. While the product attaches as described, I realized I did not have a good spot on either of our 2 strollers or the wagon to attach the strap. I looped it on the stroller handlebar and pushed it to one side, but it was swinging a lot and was therefore inconvenient to me as I pushed the stroller. In our wagon, there was nowhere the strap could attach for my kids, so I ended up just putting the container loose in the wagon. While this worked, it was no different for my kids to access than if I'd just thrown the big pack of wipes in the stroller. Perhaps attaching to a car headrest may have been a better use, but I would still need to refill relatively often at the rate my kids use up wipes!
All in all, the product worked as described and did what it said. I had hoped it would be a more convenient way to access wipes, but because I didn't have a great place to attach it, and because I needed to keep refilling it, it really didn't provide much benefit for me.
