Super nice. I bought a very expensive one and returned it because it wasn't nearly as nice as this one! The best changing pad covers I found are the MamaBare
Bamboo Changing Pad Liners For Baby, Anti-Slip, Hypoallergenic, Machine Washable, 36"x 20", 3-Pack sold here on amazon. They fit this changing pad perfectly. Just trying to save you the time I lost researching all this stuff :)

Two years, two babies, and countless diaper changes later.....the changing pad is holding up like a champ! Looks and feels the same as when I first purchased it. Great product

Not for me.

Durable, but tiny holes in the top fabric is very inconvenient! If there is ANY type of potty accidents on it then it gets into the tiny holes and stays there.
Update: after a month the of use and inevitable newborn pee accidents, I've come to the realization that this pad is not the one for us. I cannot get the pee out of the tiny holes. I cleaned it as soon as i got baby diapered up and it's literally impossible to get it all out. It stains it yellow right away too. It looks gross and I'm sure it's just a breeding ground for bacteria. I contacted Summer Infants brand and they replied with how to clean it (warm water and a sponge right away without letting it dry), but that was exactly what I'd already done. They offered to send a new one, but I requested to pay the difference to get one without the "tiny gross-holes'. I look forward to their response. But just as a forwarning, this thing is difficult to keep clean. I love the contour and the size, but that doesn't matter as much to me as cleanliness.

This changing pad was purchased for the dresser in our bedroom so that we would not have to lean over as far as the changing insert in our pack 'n' play. Recovering from a c-section delivery I was unable to bend far without extreme discomfort and this changing pad made it possible to make the dresser into my changing surface, relieving pressure on my incision and my back. Excellent purchase, easy to clean. While this is not designed for a co-sleeping situation, we do use it now and then to lay our son between us in the bed while we watch movies or work on our laptops/tablets. Very convenient!

Wonderful. Fits your standard fitted cover. Look up the measurements and make sure you check them before you buy. Sometimes the covers are for non contoured ones. So they will be a little smaller. But most do fit. Anyways. It’s so big! My baby won’t outgrow this for a very long time. Maybe even a year old. Huge. I love it. It’s soft. I did get a defective one. On the side where you can move it to make it longer, it’s not attached. It just has slack that isn’t connected in there haha. Luckily the side with the 3 prongs that clips in still have the movable slack still works. So it isn’t a big deal. If you have prime you can return it for a new one for free. I just don’t feel like it because it still works and holds baby safely. It doesn’t at all affect the safely of the changing pad. So don’t worry. I’ll take a picture when I get home and show it. It’s not a big deal at all.

This changing pad is great. I did not bother with the changing pad cover and just used the munchkin changing pad liners so the baby is not cold. The terrycloth on the liners is warmer than the plastic on the pad. Both liners and pads are waterproof. I do regret buying the 4 sided walls pad instead of the 2 sided walls pad. I have a tall baby and she outgrew this pad around 9 months old. Her head was touching the edge and not comfy. I started using portable changing mats after that. I saved it in case we have another baby because it is great for infants, but portable cham5ging mats are better for toddlers.

This one goes on harder side i seen those more expensive ones are way softer but with a noce fluffy cover this changing pad is very nice. Our baby loves to sleep on it so we actully had to put it in her crib as mattress. Plus i can put it on the couch on the bed we kind of use it to move her around if needed curved sides i believe is very helpful too while my baby likes to sleep
On the side this supports her so she dont go on her belly yet. Plus has buckle
Up system also qualify worth the money :) looks cheaper then some other expensive one but hey it does a job that it is made for and you can fix softness with nice soft thicker covers :)

I like the convertible changing pad. I leave the sides popped up but it can be flattened out - mainly I do this for transportation. Sits very securely on a bathroom countertop and has never slid, skidded or moved at all. Baby stays in it even when not belted in - I belted him in once so I could turn my back and deal with a garbage bag, but I doubt it was necessary.
Accidents will happen - especially if your baby is a boy, something about the cold air - but this pad wipes down quickly with just a bit of water and it's never been an issue. I've used a sterilizing spray on it but it does not seem necessary. Doesn't soak up or retain whats used to clean it. Doesn't stain. I usually line it with a few paper towels as this does speed up cleanup when there is an accident.
Quit lookin around, buy this and move on - you've got a lot to do in the next few months, you can check this one off the list.

I was worried to get this pad after reading some reviews, but for the price I decided to try it and I'm glad I did. I had no issues with out gassing as some of the reviewers did. I also didn't have a problem with the water proof aspect. Yes there is a stamped design on the pad resulting in tiny holes, however they are so tiny that the surface tension (guess that science class paid off) doesn't allow for anything to get through. I poured water on it when it arrived and tried to push the water in, squished the pad, and left the water sitting on it all day. The water slowly evaporated off the pad but none of it got inside the pad. It has a strap for attaching it to the wall and a buckle for baby! I use the room 365 counting sheep changing pad covers which are super cheap. But the buckles on this pad are just a bit bigger than the holes on the cover, but it was an easy fix for me. All in all a good pad for us and we are very glad we got it!

We bought this to pad our diaper changing station. I shipped fast and arrived in perfect condition. We were disappointed at first that it was a bit long for the size of our changing station. We later loved the fact that it over hung the end their heads went on and cover the wood railing. It made a ramp over the end that as they got taller supported them and acted like a pillow, even at a tall two years old just changing accidents they fit well, were flat on the changing pad wouldn’t have worked with the rails and a pad that fit inside. We stopped putting a cover on it and only laid folded hospital type body blankets on it, so much easier to change out in the fly when you get a mess on the blanket. The folded blankets absorbed more and also could also be used for drying after a wipe to prevent rash and easily changed in seconds. We bought it in 2014 and our second child just turned two in 2018 as I’m writing this and is mostly peeing in the potty and it has held up well. We have one tear in the vinyl cover from our son tearing at it while we changed him (actual cover would have prevented that and not the products fault). All in all it has worked out amazingly for us and I recommend it and I’m glad we didn’t return it from being to long and just pushed it in and let the end towards the wall ramp up. I hope this helps you

We've been using this for over a year and have found no significant fault with it. We never attached it to the wall, but did not leave child unattended once they were able to roll over.
Pros:
Easy to clean - we rarely let anything get to the actual mat between an absorbent pad and a cover, but it does wipe clean & dries quickly
Raised sides keep young infants securely contained, without getting in the way of changing the diaper
Cons:
Not the easiest to transport if looking for something you want to move around the house with you. For a stationery changing pad this worked great.

I just received the chaning pad today and I was impressed. It has everything I was expecting and my baby liked laying on it. The frame is sturdy and the cover is thick, smooth, and water resistant. I also liked that it has enough padding. It is big enough for my 5 month old and it could be used as a napper for a newborn. I wish I got this when he was born so I recommend it. I have not tried putting a chaning cover but I placed a bamboo pad on it and it fits perfectly.

I really hesitated between this changing pad and a few pricier ones on the market. As a new mom, I'm guilty of always wanting to buy the BEST everything for my baby--even if that sometimes means spending over 100 dollars on a changing pad my daughter will lay on for less than 5 minutes at a time to get her butt wiped (yes, I'm thinking of the Keekaroo Peanut Diaper Changer). But most times I listen to that voice in my head laughing hysterically at me for falling prey to marketing. I then searched around a little more and saw that this changing pad was incredibly affordable and had good reviews, so I decided to go for it. And, honestly, I couldn't be happier. It's safe, comfortable, fits perfectly on top of our $60 Ikea changing table, and there are PLENTY of adorable, affordable diaper covers that fit out there (I recommend getting at least two covers, so when one's in the wash, the other's on the pad.) Zero complaints. Get it.
