We received these as a gift from our registry. They're okay, but the hats were too large for a newborn, and by time his head grew into them it was hot outside, so unnecessary. The mittens didn't really stay on too well (neither did Carter's brand)...I ended up just buying sleepers and gowns that had the attached mittens, then just putting socks on his hands.
They might work for baby #2 one day though if the seasons line up or it has a bigger head (my son's head circumference is in the 48%).
