Of course we all want as much organic stuff as possible, but if you are going with this product, only order it if you know how to sew or have a friend who does.
Fortunately, since I can't even make buttons stay on, my friend's mother is repairing it for me.
The seams came apart on the first wash. There wasn't enough fabric sewn in for it to hold together? I guess they were trying to be stingy with fabric.
Received this as a gift, and would definitely not recommend it.

This towel was soft at first, then got scratchy after multiple washings. My baby didn't seemed to mind it, but I got a different towel for her. The washcloths stayed soft, though.

I absolutely love these towels. They are super soft, large enough to wrap easily around my chubby little baby, and although I'm not sure the company ever makes this claim, the towels seem to be impervious to stains from oil I use for her nightly massages! (California Baby Massage Oil - Calming, 4.5 oz (Pack of 2) I'm a big fan of using organic whenever possible, especially for babies, so I would recommend this product highly.

I got a lot of towels for my shower... this one is my only THICK one... it's so soft and the only one my daughter loves to use... she cries of being cold when we use the others. LOVE IT!

Even though the dimensions are listed in the description these seem small and we can not use the hood at all, it will not go over our toddlers average sized head, I doubt it would fit most babes over 6 months old. We gave it 3 stars because 1. we can still use the body of the towel, 2. it is fairly thick (not like a thirsty adult towel) compared to hooded towels found at the "Super Stores" and 3. it is still putting organic next to skin.

The bumkins organic line of products are simply fabulous. We have bought the towels and washcloths for our twins. They are so soft, have super absorption and dont feel so wet after use. Definitely one of the best buys that we have made in recent times.

Unfortunately, these towels/wash cloths are pretty rough. Instead, try Under the Nile (from Giggle and others), Sage Creek (Giggle, etc), or for the softest ever bamboo towels (I got mine at Earthsake).

Within first four weeks of use, the towel ripped away from the satin trim. The look is nice but unfortunately the quality is not there.

It's interesting to see the reviews of this product seem to vary so widely. We received many hooded towels as shower gifts (I think about 8 in total) and while this one was the least cute, it has become our favorite. It's thicker and softer than the other ones we got and keeps our little one warm when we take her out of the bath. The pink satin trim is pretty without being super girly and the cream color of the towel itself is nice.

I agree with reviewers that had issues with the trim falling apart on first wash. I thought it was my washer, I started washing all baby's clothes on delicate setting. I like the towel's texture however. They could be better for the price.
