Hi everyone!

I wanted to introduce you to my new product. I am producing replacement hoods for all Bugaboo brand strollers.

Check out my website at www.baby-hood.com

Facebook group babyhood

All the hood outers are sewn with outdoor fabrics that are rated for up to 500 hours UV resistance in direct sunlight. They are fully lined and beautifully sewn by a professional seamstress at my shop not by a sweatshop in China. We check each piece for fit and quality before delivery.

I have many choices of colors and prints. This is the perfect accessory to rejuvenate your old worn or faded hood, especially if you own a frog or original bee and cant find a replacement hood. It is also a great fashion statement. With many prints and colors, there is something for everyone's taste. They can be easily be switched out for a different look whenever you want a change.

So if your style is bold or classic, if you have a boy or a girl you'll want to check out our collection. These also make an incredible gift for a new baby.

If you have any questions you may reach me at 1-888-488-0210

Looking forward to hearing from you Smile

I really like your site, it doesn't look home-made, and the products look beautiful! One caveat - why so expensive? I have the Bugaboo Bee - a sun canopy on the Bugaboo site is $49.95 whereas your covers are $99.00. Aside for the cute fabrics, what are you offering over Bugaboo that it's worth it for me to spend double the price? I hope you take this as constructive criticism, I work in marketing and the pricing difference doesn't make sense to me.

Don't worry I don't take it as criticism at all and I'll explain.
If we'll compare apples to apples then these would be next to the patterned bugaboo hoods (http://www.pishposhbaby.com/bugaboo-bee-andy-warhol-sun-canopy-flowers.html) which cost $149 each. Each one of my hoods is made by me and a professional seamstress in my shop not in a factory in China.
I don't know if the patterned hoods are fully lined but I know for sure that the original hoods which are cheaper are not and there are exposed edges inside which in my opinion look bad.

Besides for that point my hoods are a fashion accessory. Some people pay more for accessories than others. If someone wants to spend as little as possible on a replacement hood they can buy one of the bugaboo standard hoods for $49. When it comes to buying a statement piece spending is more flexible. Personally I love a good buy, I tried to make my product affordable and I certainly have more choices than what bugaboo offers.

Profit-wise don't think I'm making a killing. These costs me way more to make than what you would think. I would love to eventually sell these wholesale to baby stores all over but I would need to find a manufacturer who is up to my standards who can produce it for a good enough price to be able to sell it wholesale. I fought with my business adviser about the pricing. They should be selling for more based on cost but I wanted to keep it under $100 in the long run so thats what I'm selling for and hopefully I'll be able to get the production cost down in the future Smile Hopefully I'll be able to keep my price so low Wink

Sorry but I am also disappointed by the pricing. You are very high . Someone I know sells the same exact item for 49.99 and she does sell them to stores.

Can you link me to see what she sells? I have seen hoods around but not for 49.99 and nowhere near my quality. I can't imagine its exactly what I sell. Considering I make these myself and not in China and I know my costing there would be no way in the world she could sell the same exact thing for 49.99.

maybe the quality is not the same?

These are lined, Hand made and the fabrics can be different quality also. I am not saying they are. But you would have to look at them next to each other to see if they are actually "the same"

I think they look really nice but I prefer solid colors less showy.

Here's just a quick illustration of the same exact thing.
Lets examine the baby romper. They all do the same exact thing, they are not however the same exact thing.

I adore your product. I think its well worth the money spent, and you definitely will find your stroller in a crowd, and it is very special. Your handiwork is amazing, your attention to detail is above and beyond. I think it is DEFINITELY worth the price.

I especially like that the hoods are resistant to breakdown by the sun, very important if you spend a lot of time outdoors. I believe they're someone water resistant, too.
