I have to admit that I bought this without doing much research. The only research I did do was to make sure it would work in a shopping cart (both regular grocery stores and Costco Carts) AND in a restaurant high chair and it had to be gender neutral. I decided on the Infantino ICO in Olive after reading some of the reviews here. When I received it, the colors were exactly as I had expected. Some people have noted that the colors are not as they appear, mine were as they appeared in the picture. I have found that it is very easy to unroll the cover out of the bag and get it onto the shopping cart with a child in the other hand. I can also get it put away while holding my little one. I have washed it several times and it has washed very well. There has not been any fading, or padding shifting at all. The strap can be adjusted to be very long so that I can use it with a restaurant high chair and loop it around one of the back posts and secure it to the chair. It is a little bulky when used in a restaurant, but it just looks like my child is sitting in a little birds nest - she is extremely comfortable in it and loves playing with any toys we hook onto it. It comes with two toys and four toy loops. They are easily interchangeable. The bag can be detached from the cover if needed and the cover has extra pockets in the back to store things somewhat out of toddlers reach. I have found this cover to be very user friendly and safe. I have used it with my daughter and have no problem using this same one for my son that I'm expecting shortly. My favorite feature is that the cover does cover the entire front of the shopping cart, even my handle so I don't have to have germy hands either. The strap does come into contact with the back of the car seat, but I am okay with this as the back of the strap hardly ever comes in contact with my little one. I have noticed that not every shopping cart cover covers the entire front basket of the cart and some are very flimsy and lightly padded or do not come with it's own carrying bag. Overall I would highly recommend it.
