What's this latest thing that MN Towers are advertising?

FunPod?
Looks like a magicians prop- the box in which you Saw-A-Lady-in-Half.
Arf!

?Before I got a FunPod?, Reuben was always pestering me whilst I was in the kitchen."

it just gets funnier, the more you read.

PMSL! I prefer the name "cage".

Am loving Reuben's mummy.

OMG!! just rofl when I saw it and read the blurb - they are over 100 quid! Think I'll stick to the potentiall hazardous chair!

I feel sorry for the woman who says it gave her a new lease of life... HELP HER someone...

Who would spend that much on a wooden box? (That isn't your final resting place)

And the work top is another GBP 60!!!

That's GBP 170 in total. OMG that's nearly AU$500.

"Because standing your child on a chair or stool is dangerous

Over 42,000 children aged between 0-4 are victims of kitchen accidents every year"

Yes, and they all happen with children falling off dodgy stools. I actually think the product is a neat idea, but think they should have gone for a plain design and a much cheaper price point and then engineered it so it had alternative uses (like storage in the bottom, or the movable floor can double as a seat when attached to the outside of the box, or when the child is big it becomes a cupboard of some kind etc.

(just to clarify, there should'be been an [irony] emoticon in there)

it's a mad idea! kids have to learn these things themselves.

Decided on another thread that it will make your child look like Davros

bump, where is the other thread?

what is safe about putting your kids in a box?
this has to be the daftest baby product i have ever seen.i cannot believe that anyone would actually buy one. seriously-this has got to be a joke? surely?

thread here

and here

ta soupdragon. I think I was busy last Tuesday afternoon.
It is still a crap product though.

hub2dee I read your post as 42,000 are victims of kitchen accidents every day - that would be careless. ( First beer of the week just finished)

pmsl how very bizarre

Anyone got one...and prepared to admit it?

OMG! WHo is daft enough to spend good money on that???

wouldn't it be more dangerous than a chair if it tipped over?

If ds is standing on a chair I can grab him as the chair topples...in that he'd go with it because he could get out/away from it.

I think because the sides constrain them, they can't shift their centre of gravity enough to one side to make it topple, whereas on a stool this is realtively easy IYSWIM.

PS - LTH - Have you had your print back yet ? Does it look fab ? (Oh and did you get the sepia job I e-mailed you ?)

I'm teling you....my ds's would topple in it seconds

(yes, I did get your email....and we spoke about on here and I mailed you back. Nappy brain attacks men too I seeI'm glad it's not just me. I got the photo printed but I just did it in one of the machines in Boots so it's not brilliant, and I enlarged it too so it's gone very so slightly grainy. I'll probably get it done again in a photo shop and then try and find a frame to suit it.
Have you managed to recreate it with DD? or is my photography better than yours (I wish says LTH)

LOL. Deffo nappy brain. Woops. I haven't bought a bubble blower but a friend is bringing one round tomorrow so I might get a shot then LOL !
