I received this item at my baby shower. What a life saver! One of the great things about it is that it doesn't require batteries and you don't have to plug it in! You can keep your baby bottles, food, or wipes warm for hours. (The inside is well insulated). You put the inside unit that puts out the heat in the microwave. It says that it lasts for up to 4 hours but it last more like 5-6 for me. You just need to pop it in the microwave for 1 min. - 1 & 1/2 minutes and you're ready to go! This works great for us since we go on a lot of car trips. I would recommend it to anyone.

I wasn't so sure how this thing would work since it required no batteries and didn't plug in, but I was curious and liked the idea of it so we used one of our giftcards and got it. Of coarse I tested it out just as soon as it arrived and we love it! It takes a minute in the microwave and then it's warm for hours. It holds a nice amount and fits perfectly in both our large and small diaper bags. It's perfect for church, trips to grandmas, the doctors, or the mall!

I really loved this product as long as it worked (it kept the bottles warm for about 2 hours).

Unfortunately the little grain pillow that you are supposed to heat in the microwave is in a plastic (!) bag... Which simply melted after a couple of weeks (and just for the record: No, not because I don't know how to use a microwave or didn't read the instructions).

So that was a little disappointing. I fixed the problem by making a new heating unit myself... with whole grain pilaf and a little cotton bag. Worked great by the way and at least this way I got to use the product for my daughters wipes and bottles for the first few months. After that, I just warmed the bottles where ever I went or gave them to her at room temperature and used uhm,... cold wipes (she didn't seem to mind one bit :-)

Hey, if any of the "Go Natural" corporate guys are reading this, cotton is actually a lot more natural than plastic and seems to be working better, too. Might want to try it out and possibly make some changes to your product.

Bottom line: I really like the idea and if the bag didn't melt, this would have been a pretty good product.

I use the wipe warmer to keep bottles warm on trips to the store or when my husband and I go out to eat, etc. There is nothing better, I tried the hot/cold packs and not only was it more work to heat, it didn't keep the bottle warm half as long. Fits in a diaper bag, I also put it in my purse when I don't want to carry the diaper bag. This is a must have for every mother!

This product warms wipes perfectly! It's easy to use, and you can bring it with you anywhere. Great for cold, winter days.

I have used the Wipes Warmer for both wipes and to keep my son's bottles warm and it is FANTASTIC!!! I have 2 of these units, one I use for keeping the bottles cold, too. I definately recommend this to all mothers on the Go!

This is a great buy! It keeps the wipes warm for about 4 hours. I don't know if I have a newer version of this than some of the other reviewers but the heating element bag is not made of plastic and has not melted after weeks of use. This material won't melt - it's a type of cloth, though I'm not sure what kind exactly.

You (or your baby) won't regret this purchase

I ordered this product in Novemeber when my baby was almost a month old; I had hesitated because I thought I might find it in a store and save on shipping, but I finally just ordered it online. I received it quickly and immediately fell in love!
I had heard that the heat unit was a problem with some people where it would explode... I did have 1 problem, we were in a mountain resort and the high altitude must have been an issue because when we put it in the microwave for 1 minute it did burn and explode; since we were at Yosemite and going out into the snow, I just quickly sewed a new cover out of a cotton napkin for the rest of the weekend; it still warmed! When I got home I called Leachco and told them what happened; with no questions they asked for my address and shipped me a new heat pack. Now it is good as new! It is great.
Do watch out if you live at a high altitude (or are visiting) call the company and find out about high altitude instructions.
I love this product! Besides warming my wioes and occasionally snacks; it keeps my babies clothes warm just by being in the daiper bad next to the clothes. Warm jammies are always nice and a welcome bonus.

I was really excited when I purchased this item, especially since I had read such great reviews. Unfortunately my experience with the Warmer was not a great one. After only 4 or 5 uses it melted and I also has this horrible smell that came after micro waving and YES I did read and follow the instructions carefully. I even put it in the microwave for 5 seconds less than recommend.

I am sure this would be a 5 star item if there where some improvements made to the heating pillow.

I just love this thing. It really works and it is nice to have to also take your diaper and wipes into the restroom instead of the whole bag (as long as someone is watching the other stuff!!)
