I am just about to buy one; I am erring towards the my Brest friend, but it is not cheap...

Anyone used either and have any opinions on whether any good? thanks

I've got a Widgey, it's nice and firm and raises baby up to a good height. I got mine when my baby was a few months old after aving a crappy squishy one and a plie of pillows and struggling!

Still use it now he's 10mo (although he wriggles a bit!) and DH uses it to cuddle him to sleep for naps

nah my breastfriend coz you can strap it to you and pop your lasinoh, remote etc in pocket. I love mine- found with the widgey dd would stil try and fall down the dip between me and cushion whereas with my brest friend there is no dip.
Tho my brestfriend can only be used for breastfeeding and now dd is 5months I prefer to feed her lying down as she doesnt lurch about having a nosey and flashing me everywhere, whereas the widgey can be used as a baby seat prop too so probably get longer use out of it.

should invent a strap for the widgey... ;)

my brest friend is fabulous. really helps with positioning. yes expensive, but worth it IMHO.
