Springmaid Baby Waterproof Crib Pad - Big Dot

My only complaint is that according to Amazon (above) this item is now discontinued! I hope this is only a temporary thing, as I really want MORE of these wonderful waterproof pads! The best thing about them is how BIG they are.

Does anyone happen to know where else the pads can be purchased?

This pad is wonderful! The pad fits perfectly in the crib and stays nice and flat on the sheet. So far, nothing has gotten through this pad. It is much easier to take off and wash than the crib sheet is, making it a real time-saver and back-saver. I actually bought an extra one and cut it up into 1.5 by 2 ft pieces and use them on my changing table. They do sell changing table sized, but I found I got more for my money by using this larger one and cutting it to size. The pad is reversible, and the back side of this pad is white. If the polka-dots don't fit into your nursery decor, the white will probably go just fine.

I purchased this to use in my daughter's crib over-night since she seems to leak through her diaper and pajamas no matter what and I was getting very tired of changing sheets every morning.

This pad is HUGE, much bigger than I was expecting - it will easily cover an entire crib mattress. I decided to cut it in half and just use half at a time since my daughter tends to stick to one end of her crib when she sleeps at night. It's wide enough that I can just tuck the ends under the Cozy Wedge crib bumber and she has room to roll around in her sleep without it bunching up beneath her. I've only washed it once but it does seem like the ends will fray very easily so I think when I do need to wash it I'll do so on a gentle cycle and let it air dry to help it last a little longer.

I would say this was well worth the price considering the size of the pad, and it has a cute print on it. Last night my daughter was 'picking' at the little colored dots on the pad.

My husband has prostrate cancer and gets hormone shots, which causes him to get hot flashes and sweats. He needed something on his bed so he wouldn't ruin the mattress. He really sweats alot. I remembered using these waterproof pads when our girls were babies and how great they worked. They still work great and wash great. Thank you for helping us through this hard time.

I have 2 of these pads and am ordering lots more. They are super soft and wonderful at catching leaking breast milk, spit up, throw up etc. in a co-sleeping arrangement. Definitely soft enough to be next to baby's skin.

Works as advertised - it stops leaks. I like the design as well. It gets a bit fuzzy after washing but does not look bad. You can also cut it if you want to customize it to something.

I use this as a mattress pad in my son's crib, and it does a good job of soaking up diaper leaks. It is a nice large size that covers most of the crib, since my son like to essentially do gymnastics all over the place in his crib when he sleeps, so you never know what corner he'll end up in.

My only complaints are: 1 - it "pills" and shreds a LOT after washing, so I will probably have to buy more before my son is six months old. 2 - since it doesn't attach to the mattress in any way, it can be difficult to situate between the mattress and the sheet without any lumps.

However, overall, it's a good product that I use all the time, and since it's decently priced, it's worth buying in my opinion.

Grade: B+

Wow! When they say they are crib sized, they aren't kidding. It will protect your crib mattress from end to end. Washed for first time according to instructions, they came out just fine. Intend to buy more of these as the first ones get worn.

Bought this item based on recommendations from the Amazon community and elsewhere. While skeptical before using (was it *really* waterproof? how could it be 100% cotton and so soft and machine washable and still work?), I'm highly satisfied with the quality as well as versatility. Works as a crib mattress pad beneath sheets (and doesn't bunch up nearly as much as I thought, so is good enough to use rather than a fitted crib mattress pad); as a washable, waterproof cover for a changing pad; folded in half and on top of a clean towel for a newborn's sponge bath; in a diaper bag for a clean changing surface; etc etc. Relatively inexpensive and worth the price, buy multiples if you can.

This is often advertised as a crib pad, or a changing pad. practice co-sleeping with my son, and I lay it underneath us on the bed to protect my sheets from breastmilk and spit up. I also love that you can cut these down to size. You can use them as a placemat, or under a high chair!

Great product. Excellent craftmanship. Fast shipping. I bought the waterproof pad for my granddaughter's bed who is 2 and for my grandson who is just an infant. This product can be utilized in many ways. I would recommend this waterproof crib to anyone looking to protect a childs mattress. It's also great to take out on shopping trips to be used in stores or your car.

I got this for my new puppy to lay on on my bed just in case he had a "mistake". Well he didn't and then my grandson was born and we use it to change him. It isn't cold and is very portable.

Can be used directly on mattress. Nothing seeps through. Bought 2 initially then ordered 5 more

The Big Dot Waterproof Pad is one of the most effective waterproof pads that I have found. Can be used in baby cribs, for pet-proof places in the home or when traveling. Good for any function where you need water-proofing protection.
