Bumkins Sleeved Bib, Handy Tie Closure for Custom Fit, Catch-All Pocket, Baby-Led Weaning, Waterproof, Machine Washable, Stain & Odour Resistant, BPA Free, 6-24 Months, Arrows Design

Great bibs!- lightweight, large enough to cover the essentials and good shape that means arms are free to devour food. the pocket catches food and is large enough that 2nd helpings can be had from it. They wash well either by hand or in the machine and the velcro for closure is large and strong so bib isn't taken off easily by the child. I bought the full sleeve version first and was impressed by the quality so purchased these lightweight ones, clearly well-made and thought out.*update- my daughter is now 2 and they are still going strong- no rips, tears, seams coming apart or ill-effects from machine or hand-washing. Still very impressed*2023 update- still going strong! Still in the same condition and surviving being machine and hand washed and the more rigorous dining with a 3 year old!

We love the bumkin bibs! They fit great, expandable, waterproof, easy to wipe clean and dry very quick after washing! The also have a handy pocket to catch dropped crumbs and cover a large area of the chest +belly of my 1 y/o keeping her clest dry and clean from food.

Great bib, soft waterproof material that doesn't stain even with the greenest foods or carrots, washes well in the machine. Sleeve cuffs have elastic, which prevents food from going up the sleeve. Good size for my 8 month old, not too big or restrictive. Love the tie strings at the back of the neck- a must for us as my baby pulls off the bibs that have velcro...The only remark I have is about the listing of the item- it says pink chevron with pink photo- but we received grey chevron one. There is no option to order pink one.

Pros:* It’s pretty for a start, and everyone comments on how lovely a bib it is.* Really easy to clean, either wipe down or Chuck in the washing machine.* The design and shape of the material is thin enough so not to bunch up when she raises her food to her mouth but waterproof enough so that her messy drinking doesn’t soak her clothes below.Cons:* The cuffs are elasticated and not too loose, so the odd bit of fruit juice can run down the arm onto her clothes underneath.* If it could be just a little bit longer to cover the babies legs a little more would be great as food does tend to end up in her lap and stain her clothes* The food catching pocket never sits open no matter how I adjust it, so it’s more for the look than the use.* The neck tie (perhaps my daughter has a thin neck) doesn’t fasten close enough to under her chin and so food juices and water can dribble under the bib opening round the neck and onto her clothes.

So worth the money! Had a Tommy tippee before, son hated it, it was too heavy and rubbery, made his skin red. These are light and breathable while totally waterproof. The pockets could be a bit more open, but if you remember to open them once the bib is on, they catch all the bits and crumbs. Haven't machine wash them, only with washing up liquid and sponge, but still are as waterproof as at the start. Also the positioning of the velcro is very thoughtful.

These are the best bibs! Tie up at the back so they can go as tight or loose as needed, wrists have little cuffs so nothing can get up the sleeves, they have 2 flaps at the bottom to catch food and wipe down so easily. When they start to get a bit smelly they wash in the machine perfectly too. Great for weaning, painting or any other messy activity

Overall not bad product. We have 2 of these in different colours and this one discoloured at the end of sleeves after 3 months of using. So colour not very practical. As the other that we have is brightly coloured with dense pattern discolouration of the fabric is not obvious. Another impractical point is the pocket that is sawn in the middle. It doesn't catch any food and we only use it with combination of silicone bib that catches all the mess. The apron itself is well finished, washes well hence discolouration, dries quickly. Ends of the sleeves have elasticated bands that wrap around baby's wrists well although they often soak through so if baby is wearing long sleeve outfit underneath I recommend rolling sleeves up to avoid changing clothes after meal. It was perfect for the baby from 6 to 10 months (75 per centile), after that gets a bit tighter. I would like to see the design of apron that would also cover well straps of 5 point harness. This design does not take this into consideration when baby is just getting messier when wanting to use spoon on his/her own so a high chair straps might get really dirty if not covered.

Loved this - had this one for 15 Months now and it’s been great.It is on the large side so we tie the back tightly, also means She can’t pull it off.Easy to wash and Keep clean - no staining on ours. Washed weekly at 40, daily with soapy cloth/scourer, dries super quick.Thin which is great and breathable - not plastic and clammy like other brands and types.
