I haven't bought this before (and I can much more easily now it's on-line); how do you rate it (esp for little boy toddlers)?

I have only looked/bought boys stuff but I like it. It is just slightly different from the 'same old same old' stuff you get in Next etc for roughly the same price.

It does seem better quality aswell. The sizes are slightly odd as they tend to cover 2 years (i.e. 2-4 years, 4-6 years) so can be very big if at the lower end of the age iyswim.

I buy quite a lot of DD's (a very tall 3 year old!) clothes from there and have always been happy with the quality. They are hard wearing and wash very well. Also they have things that are a bit different to the rest of the high street, so I don't have to kit her out in mini versions of teenage girls stuff, like you get in Next!!

Have only bought a few things for DS as he is only 12 months and I didn't like the baby stuff in there for boys, but so far so good!!

I love H&M for baby boys stuff, far more colourful than dull Next stuff. But when it gets to toddler age it all gets dull again Hmm.

I have a little boy toddler & loads of his stuff is from H&M, it's lovely & bright, great quality for the price. The striped l/s tops are fab. Some of the 12-18 baby stuff is pretty generous (ds3 is 2 in a couple of weeks and still fits into it), I see they have a blue version of the snuggly fleece jacket in green I got for him last year which still fits.

I find my local shop highly frustrating. 95% of the space devoted to girls' clothing with a couple of token rows of boys' stuff shoved right at the back. Sizing very peculiar, 2-4y too small for my 3.6yo, 4-6y ridiculously large. Shame 'cause it's more colourful than most of the high street for boys.

I've had some really lovely stuff for DS but the nice stuff tends to go very quickly ime - dunno why they can't keep it in stock for longer.

I like it.

I really like the baby stuff, sleepsuits are lovely.

I like the young girls range, lovely colours and prints, wide range and is age appropriate.

I like the boys clothes too, and sometimes buy boys stuff for dd.

I am not so keen on the girls 8-14 range, it can be too old and fashiony for my not interested in fashion dd, (who is 9) though they do sometimes have some gems.

Totally agree tops come up small, but trousers are very long.

I have bought from the younger girls range and have been very pleased. I was particularly impressed with their £2.99 tshirt dresses - washed well and at that price you can have loads! Were good for leggings too.

However, I don't like their oldr girls range that DD is now in. Infact not bought anything from there since DD went into that range.

I have a dd, she has quite a few things from H&M, t-shirts are great (long and short sleeved), 100% cotton and good price. Trousers annoying as sizes seem to be 2-4 and them jump to 6-8 with no inbetween so much to long at the moment. She lived in the £2.99 summer dresses and they washed great and are such good value.

brilliant for tall skinny kids and not too pink obsessed

DD has had a few baby & toddler bits & I've liked them all & they wash well. Great for non-pink girls stuff. Nice detailing.
