Tot-Pod: Baby Carrier, Car Seat, and Stroller!
December 22nd 2008 by Dr.MOZ in Baby Carriers, Car Seats, Strollers
I was scrolling through Trend Hunter’s Best of 2008 lists this morning and was surprised to find the tot-pod. I’m not sure how I missed Canadian designer Aldo Barreto’s winning entry from Samsonite’s design competition earlier in the year, but I love the flexibility of this baby car seat. The concept product includes a hidden storage space (in back), a seat-mount for easy installation in cars, and drop-down wheels which instantly turn the seat into a stroller. The versatility of Tot-pods are sure to make them big hits with parents, so I’ll let you know if Samsonite announces a release date in 2009!
Have fun and stay healthy,
Dr.MOZ

This “tot-pod” looks very interesting, and futuristic, and I think it’s a very good invention which doesn’t need much space. Perhaps there should be more inventions like this one. I really like it. Thanks for this great post.

wow…this is a good one. It is easy to store and save alot of space. Don;t know when I can see this sell in the malaysia market. Looking forward to buy this… It should be expensive..:)

lovely product. i can’t wait to get 1 for my son.

This is very suitable for couples on-the-go who wants to bring their baby along. It is very convenient to use. Too bad my son is old enough to use this.

A beautiful piece of design… it’s great how it’s both for a baby in the car, and baby in the pram… Easy to carry too? Brilliant…

Awesome design, looks really great…that’s will surely be a hit to young parents. What’s the weight of the baby carrier?

Very nice and compact design. I really love it. I believe this one could be a best seller.

I wonder if this is actually build-able? It is a fantastic concept and sure to be a winner for Samsonite. Not sure how the baby is restrained in the seat. Anyway, if it is released it will give a significant boost to their business

Would be interested to see how it does in safety tests. Looks really cool though!!

Woah! That is the awesomeist

Now that is awesome! A great design by Aldo Barreto. It will be interesting to see how different the final product looks from Aldo’s initial vision.

This is awesome for us families with smaller cars. I’ll be watching out for the release of this one
March 5th, 2009 at 8:17 am
Cool! The design is very compact and is quite futuristic in a way. It’s like a bucket seat on a sports car. Very classy! Do we have a date for the release yet? Our baby is due this May and it will be awesome for the baby to have a tot-pod.

Ive never seen anything like this. Looks like we see where the future of transporting baby is going
March 25th, 2009 at 8:52 am
Totally awesome cool baby product concept. Futuristic and Sci-fi. We are marching toward the transformer era for sure!

this looks like something out of the movie iRobot! it has a great design though and think it could be popular.

this is a great innovation. it looks suitable with modern family. design is fantastic, and multiple use. great product

That is awesome! I especially think it would be great for air travel with a baby (if you pay for their own seat on the plane) and even better for when you get to your destination – car rental problems solved, buggy problems solved – I love it!!!
