👶 Kuster Jelly Baby Changing Mat in Blue - Limited Edition (Discontinued) Review

I love this product for 7 months. It is easy to clean, portable and comfortable to the touch. But that had to be over once the let's see-we-can-chew-that phase kicked in. Our little one took a few big bites from it. We now use the traditional closed changing pad.

I bought it when my son was born 2 years ago! I still use it! I covered it with a towel in the middle for easier cleaning (just throw it in the wash). After 2 years, the top and bottom edge or lip deteriorates. Unfortunately, small spongy pieces come loose. Great for babies but I don't think this product will last more than one baby.

This mat offers baby a comfortable, non-slip place to rest. It's also vinyl-free, which is what we were looking for the most. While a lid isn't needed (per a previous review), we just use a towel over it, which works great. We have been using this rug for over 4 months and have had no problems with it damaging the top of our antique chest of drawers which was used as a changing table.

I bought this for my little one because I'm scared of those old school pads. I found an insole that was perfect for this and was happy for a while. But after a year of use, the edges are chipping and the whole thing is a bit stained (hard to tell what). The staining may have been my fault for being a bad housewife, but I never noticed anything about it that could stain. I'll say I'm glad to have it as the disgusting old school look but I have to throw it away after a baby which is a bummer. Oh…

My husband and I have loved this pad for four months. until this week. My mother-in-law's ring left many tiny tears in the pad's surface that weren't visible until she changed it after a big ejaculation (well, I know, but we're talking about a changing pad). You must be VERY CAREFUL not to catch your nails or jewelry (or your child's nails) on the soft foam. Once there is a small tear on the surface, the contents of the diaper can penetrate the liner, soiling it and making it less hygienic. If…
