4.0 out of 5 stars Good value, January 10, 2003

By	Heather L. Case (Whitehall, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really like these covers. We have three. They did seem to shrink a little after we washed them, but overall, they fit fine. Also, I don't have a problem with the straps. The straps are attached underneath and come over the pad and cover. I don't really understand where the need for the slots comes in.

I especially like how absorbant they are. Besides changing diapers, we use the pad and the covers in the bathroom after our baby's bath. Any moisture that the baby towel didn't absorb, the cover did.

They also wash up quite nicely. We had a few accidents when our baby first came home, but a little spray in wash and there were no stains.

These are a great item and you should have at least two.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the perfect pad, July 23, 2003

By	Bookratt "bookratt" - See all my reviews

Why didn't they make these covers with slits in the side for the safety straps the changing pads have? The maker of this product, Simmons, also made the coordinating, contoured changing pad we use, so that design flaw just doesn't make sense.

These pads are soft and do wash well, and do fit and stay put on the coordinating changing pad, but I would recommend not using pads of this type at all for everyday. We use these covers as cover ups only, when guests are coming and we want the changing pad to look new and pretty.

Just change your baby on the uncovered vinyl pad itself, so that you can use the safety straps and can also clean the changing pad with antiseptic or other wipes after messy changes or when your baby boy wets all over it.

Or, put a coordinating flannel blanket, folded in quarters, down on the pad for baby's head and shoulders to rest on if you think the pad's vinyl is too cold for middle-of-the night changes. The blankets are cheaper, easier to clean and don't interfere with the use of the safety straps.

2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't really like this one, June 28, 2002

By	Mariah's Mom "gemilagl" (Detroit, MI United States) - See all my reviews

I registered for both the Simmons changing pad and two covers for my shower. I received the pad but no covers. We purchased a cover from USA Baby (where we bought furniture) first. That cover works well, and has the slots for the safety straps. I only had the one at first, and it has been washed a lot with no shrinkage or fading (I have yellow). My mom purchased a Simmons cover from my registry (you really do need two covers!) two months ago. The color is a nicer shade of yellow (we have the Suzy's Zoo decor from Babie's R' Us), but that is the only thing I like. I washed it once before use in cold water and it was very difficult to put on the pad. I had to bend the pad to get the cover to fit. Now I have bent corners on my pad! I also hate that theree are no slots for the safety straps. One would think that since Simmons made the pad, they would make the cover to fit correctly! I have since bought another cover from USA Baby.
