Pure earth company sleep sack

Has anyone tried one of these bamboo sleep sacks by pure earth company? The bamboo means they work for a range of temperatures/togs and they are suitable from
3m-2yr. They looks really nice and I like the look of the clip on comforter as a way of safely introducing a comforter to my 3m old. However the thing that puts me off is 1. the price (£98 although currently 15% off, plus supposedly if you add up the fact they are a range of togs and last til 2yrs you could say it’s the same as buying multiple other brands) and 2. their marketing claims they will help baby sleep better- im always wary of brands that claim this and therefore target sleep deprived parents. The reviews on their website looks good but hoping for an honest review from someone on here…? Thanks

Following as I'm being bombarded with ads for this and as I have a baby that will not sleep anything is tempting. I've resisted for the same reasons as you!

Hey there, did you try these in the end? Also sleep deprived, also being targeted with the ads, also desperately seeking solutions for a few more hours sleep!

I did. It’s a nicely made sleeping bag but unsurprisingly it hasn’t made a difference to my 4m olds sleep. I would say it’s better suited to an older child as it is very long, which I’ve found annoying for transferring baby from my arms to cot (we have not managed the elusive drowsy but awake or awake in cot to sleep magic that many people speak about) as it gets in the way and if it knocks the cot side when transferring her it will actually wake her. The comforter is cute and she has snuggled it a bit but she still doesn’t seem ready to be able to self sooth, so I don’t think a comforter is going to solve that. Again as she gets older it may be better. Hope that helps and I hope you’re surviving. Also deep in the trenches of a terrible sleeper wondering what I ever did wrong 😑

You've done nothing wrong. It's normal for babies to need help to get asleep. It's also very annoying that we can't have a proper night sleep though 😢
At 4 month my baby routine was to feed, then clean her face, change nappies, put her in the pyjama and sleeping bag, read a book then put her in her cot with a mobile playing music and she stayed happily looking at it and would fall asleep ( i needed to leave the room otherwise her focus was on me). She would wake up max 2 times at night.
Now at 11 months my baby only falls asleep in my arms and wakes up 5 times. I blamed myself for not keeping the above routine and letting her fall asleep on the breast, until I have heard of 11mo that are bottle fed that also wake up loads in the night.
I'm also desperate for a solution and was looking to see if the bamboo sleeping bags would help. I'm two minds and I the idea of non polyester wading, but hate the claims and cost.
