FAQs
What age group is this bunting designed for?
This Columbia Snuggly Bunny II Bunting is designed for infants. Specific sizing will correspond to different infant ages, so always refer to the size chart for the best fit.
Is the bunting completely waterproof?
No, the bunting features water-resistant fabric, which means it will repel light rain and snow, but it is not fully waterproof for prolonged exposure to heavy precipitation.
Can I use this bunting in a car seat?
While the bunting provides excellent warmth, generally, car seat manufacturers advise against bulky outerwear in car seats as it can interfere with the harness's ability to fit snugly. It's usually safer to dress your baby in thin layers in the car seat and then place blankets over the harness once it's securely fastened.
What type of insulation does this bunting use?
The bunting is insulated with 60/40 duck down, which provides excellent warmth while remaining lightweight.
Does this bunting have built-in hand and foot covers?
Yes, it features convenient fold-over cuffs that act as integrated mittens and booties to keep your baby's hands and feet warm.
How do I ensure the down stays fluffy after washing?
To maintain the down's loft, tumble dry the bunting on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps redistribute and fluff the down, preventing clumping.
Is the hood lined with fleece?
Yes, the hood is lined with soft microfleece, providing extra warmth and comfort around your baby's head.
Troubleshooting
My baby seems too warm or too cold in the bunting.
Adjust the layers of clothing your baby is wearing underneath the bunting. In colder conditions, add a thin, breathable layer; in milder conditions, reduce underlayers. Always check your baby's core temperature (chest or back of neck) to determine comfort, not just hands or feet.
The down insulation appears clumpy or flat after washing.
This is common with down products if not dried properly. Tumble dry on a low heat setting with several clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up the down clumps and restore loft. It may require multiple drying cycles to ensure the down is thoroughly dry and fluffed.
The fold-over cuffs seem too tight or too loose on my baby's hands/feet.
Check the sizing of the bunting. If it's too small, the cuffs may be restrictive. If it's too large, they may not stay securely folded. Ensure the fit is appropriate for your infant's current size. The gusset detail is designed for better fit and movement.
The bunting doesn't seem as water-resistant as before.
Over time, the water-resistant coating can wear down with use and washing. Ensure you are following the care instructions carefully, avoiding fabric softeners and harsh detergents. For best results, use a technical wash specifically designed for outdoor gear.
