Keekaroo Peanut Changer, Grey (Black)

Product Information

We suggest a washable changing pad cover that you can remove, wash, and reuse; this makes wiping down the changing pad nice and easy while you wash the cover, perhaps along with your cloth diapers! With a newborn, you won't need to worry too much about rolling and scooting around on the changing pad. If you have a wiggly or curious baby, you might be worried that they'll rollover and do gymnastics off the changing pad.

Even if you don't attach it to your changing table or dresser, there are anti-slip grippy feet on the bottom that help keep the changing pad from sliding around. Keep an eye out for the changing table's dimensions and whether or not they're compatible with your favorite changing pad brand. The JPMA Certified changer is free of latex, PVC, BPA, phthalates, and formamide, and is easy to clean, fluid resistant, and durable.This is a crowded market and it's becoming hard for companies to set their products apart and offer something unique. Overall, we loved using the Skip Hop and think it's not only adorable but also durable and high quality. The three drawers are great for storing items like diapers and extra sets of clothing, and the under-bed drawer is nice for keeping extra crib sheets in case of an overnight blowout.

If you have a blow-out on this changing pad, bacteria can get trapped in the nooks and crannies of the texture. It has a removable safety strap that can be placed in a drawer when it’s not in use, so you can keep it out of your little one’s hands.The foam core is cushioned enough to keep it comfortable, and the vinyl cover is waterproof and super easy to clean.

Fortunately, Poopoose makes changing pad covers that fit perfectly, but they are a bit more expensive than other covers. Rest assured that as doctoral-level scientists, parents, and the owners of this small business, we have over 20 years of combined experience testing and reviewing over 2400 different baby and toddler products.When we used the Poopoose to change diapers, we had to slide the baby down a bit so that the strap was closer to his armpits than his waist, to avoid the risk of getting the strap dirty. We consider a number of factors when evaluating each product, including stability, safety, ease of use and storage space to make expert recommendations. Some parents find this reassuring that the pad is less likely to slide around, but some find it unnecessary or frustrating to use (especially when it comes to cleaning, or replacing a changing pad cover). Its safety features made me feel secure in using it, and the high-quality durable material was also a huge perk, as it can last for years and even be passed down or sold as a secondhand baby product. Whether at home on a changing table or on top of a dresser, or when you're on the go, you'll want a changing pad that is comfortable, safe, and easy to clean.

There’s no guarantee that you’ll truly use this particular feature, but it convenient to have with a changing pad that’s comfortable enough to keep your baby lying still. Height: Expect to spend a lot of time bending over the changing table for the first few years of your little one's life. The size of the diaper changer might be a selling point for some parents, but others may find it almost too big or bulky. The only little issues we ran into were that it can't be machine washed (hand-wash only), and one of the two we purchased had a split stitch along the side (we exchanged it). Here are the changing pads we purchased and reviewed: Munchkin Secure Grip, Summer Infant, LA Baby Contour, Skip Hop Wipe Clean, Keekaroo, LA Baby Cocoon Style, Poopoose, Delta Children, Hatch Pad and Scale, Naturepedic Contoured, Bumbo, Maman Portable, Snoofybee Large Clean Hands Portable, Colgate, DaVinci, Moonlight Slumber, and Serta Sertapedic.During the colder months, the rubber surface can get a little cool to the touch (if your baby is naked and more sensitive), so we used a changing pad liner. Of course, it's not a medical-grade scale like in your doctor's office, but it does provide a rough guide to weight gain progress that you can communicate to your pediatrician.
