Is this item waterproof (can I wipe if off easily)? Or is it fabric that I have to wash after every feeding?

This bib is very wipeable, but I wouldn't call it waterproof. It's like a laminated canvas material on the front and retained odors like milk badly for me. I also think my daughter didn't like the stiffness.

This is the best bib we have ever used, we have 4 children 7 yrs and younger, and we have one that is 6 years old that we're using on the forth one now. The front side where food falls in is like a plasticy fabric that is water proof, they spell food and liquid in there and it stays till we remove the bib from them. The back side is a combo of cloth/plastic and is very quick drying. My wife has a habit of washing it about once a month in the washer and it dries in a few hours. The rest of the time we dump the food and liquid out of the front pocket then wipe it clean for the next meal.

Yes, this bib is waterproof. It has a very strong odor and so I did not use them.

Like Becca said. When the bib is folded up, the inside of the pocket is the laminated side. The front of the pocket, however, is the fabric side. So if your kid gets a lot of food on the front of the pocket, it'll need a more intensive wipe-down. I have a fairly messy eater, and after most meals the bib needs a rinse. I think the directions say not to put them in the washing machine, but we do about once a month and just wash them by hand with the dishes daily. I've had mine for over a year and they've just started showing wear.

It is a tough fabric (like a canvas) on the back and it's laminated with vinyl on the front. The trim is like a polyester or nylon fabric. They are extremely waterproof and can hold up to about 8oz. of fluid in the pocket. I generally wipe them down with a washcloth after each feeding (if really messy I rinse in them in the sink (if the trim gets messy) and hang them to dry before the next meal. I usually toss them in the wash with towels once a week (dry on low/med heat and usually remove it before the rest of the load).

It is waterproof. I usually take a wet washcloth and wipe it down when my daughter is done eating.

It's not waterproof if that's what you mean. It's fabric. I did once leave it in the rain (a drizzle, not a downpour) and remembered about a half hour later. It dried fine. I would not recommend that though. I always put it away.I see someone else has had no issue with it though. Good to know. As far as the quality of it? I absolutely love the thickness and durability of it.

not sure about other styles- but this one is a vinyl-like wipeable fabric. PLUS you can unsnap the whole thing and throw it in the washing machine from time to time. been using it consistently for 5+ months and no stains yet- not for lack of trying on the part of my 10 month old:)

I cannot recall the cleaning instructions that accompanied the item, if any. But its pretty much a 'wipe clean' item. I've easily wiped away liquids and crusty foods left behind by my 2 1/2 YO. So, I agree w/shorty, its surface washable & can withstand the same cleanings applied to a standard upholstered couch.

It's a huge pain taking the fabric off of the stroller to wash. I did it once and I'll never do it again, there are so many pieces attached and you will need a screwdriver to take some of the stroller apart in order to get all of the fabric out. The fabric itself catches lint/dust/dirt/etc really easy and since it is not waterproof, in my experience, it is not easy to spot clean. Since the fabric is black, it does not stain that easily, unless, you dump bleach on it. I have had this stroller for over a year now, washed it once, and it seems to have faded with wear and tear, its not a sleek black color anymore.

My dirty wet dogs are back there on it all the time. I've had mine since April and it is a nice microfiber type fabric. I need to take mine out and shake it but I believe that will be fine - when I brush it off it is fine. Certainly seems durable enough - I know when it arrived the material was a nice surprise as I had doubts after reading some of the reviews but it was money well spent. If you have dogs I think you'll be very pleased!

It's made of a nylon-like fabric. I wouldn't expect it to be waterproof, I use a liner with it.

You can easily wipe it clean so it may not need washing that much. I have only washed mine a few times and no ripping or wear at all!

Mine came lined with a synthetic blend blue cover which I was unsure how I would really be able to wash well if it got soiled. I use an organic cotton cover on top and lay a smaller changing pad liner (with no elastic) on top of that which has a waterproof back. You can get them in sets of 3 from Babies R Us. They were helpful with newborns so you didn't have to change the whole cover so frequently. Hope this helps:-)

The apron is heavy suede leather and as such, not waterproof. I think it would be impossible to clean. However, I have overall been happy with it, my only criticism being that the neck scoops forward more than I would like.

Because of the materials, I would only wash this by hand in cool water and air dry. I like this product, but mine is new and I haven't had cause to wash it yet. It wipes off easily with a damp cloth.

This is a really good question, Danielle. I had not needed to do any cleaning of my hamper so I went to look at it and investigate a little for you. There is a liner around the entire interior which is different from the outer material and feels like it will keep moisture from wicking through to the outside fabric. I held a cloth saturated with water against the inside material and got no soaking through to the outside at all. I also held the wet cloth against the outside material and got no soaking through to the inside either. In fact, neither the inside nor the outside showed any evidence of having been wetted. So, I think this hamper will be easy to spot clean (both inside and out) and to spritz with a cleaning solution and wipe clean. Anything more thorough than that I don't know. I can't say positively that the product is "water proof" but it definitely resists a thorough wetting. It does fold flat when you remove the top. Hope this helps.

It says to spot clean with mild detergent. It is not regular material, it is almost like a hard flexible plastic. I dont do how to explain it. It has a protective waterproof barrier that protects it from getting wet.

Tricky... it's 'surface washable' if that makes sense, but my wife uses hers around pets and decided that the organic cotton one was better to use, and it is very washable (hand washing is best though)

The outside of it can easily be wiped off, but the inside is fabric, so I hand wash it with woolite then lay it flat on a towel to dry. Its easy, but time consuming...I wouldnt use the washer or dryer for this.

I have not had to clean mine. Since it's a polyester fabric, it should clean very easily with usual cleaning products

Honestly I haven't tried to wash although it looks like you can. My seat is fairly new so I have spot washed. It keeps clean with all the spills day in and day out. the material doesn't absorb the spills so it is ideal for us.
