Keekaroo Peanut Changer, Grey (Black)

Product Information

I do personally highly recommend the Keekaroo Peanut Changer and have nothing but glowing things to say about it. I can’t imagine buying a traditional changing pad that needs the covers changed after any accident. I’m a huge fan of efficiency, so I loved just being able to wipe down the pad whenever it got dirty during a diaper change. The Keekaroo changing pad also has a bit of a tilt to it, so if your little peanut pees during a change it will stay at the bottom of the pad instead of pooling around baby. As a mama with a love for the good stuff, and only so many dollars, I am a huge fan of premium baby gear marketplace for gently used and opened box baby gear, GoodBuy Gear. Like the Keekaroo Peanut Changer, you can simply wipe clean the Bumbo Changing Pad and take comfort in the fact that its durable foam makes it hard for moisture to get through and cause mold or bacteria to build up.

The Skip Hop portable changing pad is a multi-purpose item: It’s an easy-to-clean portable pad and a place to stash diapers, wipes and diaper cream. It was one of my diaper bag heroes in my early days of motherhood. I’d organize all the diapering essentials in the included compartments, and use the pad itself to change my babies on-the-go. This clutch made outings and travel so much easier for my family, especially since we could easily grab everything we needed for diaper changes in one hand. With the soft Keekaroo Peanut Changer , you can deal with diaper changes pretty much anywhere without worrying about putting your baby on a hard or unsanitary surface when changing diapers. The zippered front compartment even allows parents to stash their own essentials as well. Reviewers also mention how the surface is smooth so it’s easy to wipe clean. And, it has a clip to attach it directly to your stroller.Why We Like It: This cushy, visually appealing peanut can sit atop any dresser, replacing the need for a changing table. The surface of the Peanut Changer is flat, whereas the Matty has a bit of a slope to it, which is nice for baby’s first few months, when staying at a bit of an angle can help avoid extra spit up. Unlike the Keekaroo, this change pad is super lightweight, making it easy to move from change table to floor to bed as needed. I tried to weigh it on my home scale (which apparently isn’t very good). I had to weigh it a few different times, and it came out between 2.5 pounds to 3 pounds each time. Although the Keekaroo Peanut diaper changer is one solid piece, it can be used to change your child anywhere around the house where you choose to use it. It features a durable outer shell with a solid protective layer that inhibits the growth of bacteria when you’re changing your baby or toddler’s diaper. A firm base ensures that if you are using it as designed—with the safety strap securing your baby anytime you change them—you may use it on a higher surface such as a changing table. So, you have the option of using the Keekaro Peanut in one location in the house, or moving it around as you find convenient for you needs.

The level of softness of the Hatch Changing Pad may vary based on personal preferences and expectations. While the Hatch Changing Pad is designed to provide a comfortable surface for diaper changes, it might not offer the same plush softness as some fabric-covered changing pads. However, it is constructed to ensure your baby’s comfort during changes, and many parents find it to be adequately soft for its purpose. If softness is a top priority, you might want to consider the material and construction of the changing pad in comparison to your preferences. My big issue with the Bumbo pad is that the company makes it hard to know what the changing pad is made of, and what it’s free from. The company indicates the changing pad (along with the Bumbo seat) is made of “high-quality foam,” but that’s as far as they get.

Is the Keekaroo Peanut Changer worth it?

While the Skip Hop changing pad is wipeable just like the other pads, it’s also got a little mobile to catch baby’s attention, which can definitely help make diaper changes a bit easier. Yes, it’s expensive, but if you calculate the costs of buying throwaway changing pads for two children for as long as they are in diapers, it comes close in terms of even costs. Its safety features made me feel secure in using it, and the high-quality durable material was also a huge perk, as it can last for years and even be passed down or sold as a secondhand baby product. The idea behind the slope is that any pee that happens while your baby is diaperless on the changer will run away from their head and body, perhaps even pooling down near their feet. The top image shows the steeper angle near the head of the Bumbo changer, and the bottom image shows the slightly less steep angle of the change pad near the foot. It’s also free from a number of chemicals you likely don’t want near your child’s nether regions, including BPA, PVC, formamide, PBDE flame retardant, and phthalates. The Keekaroo and Leander Matty tie in terms of sponginess, but the Matty is softer to the touch, and more comfortable for my own skin when I touch it. Both are way softer and spongier than the Bumbo, which I already think is pretty good!

Overview: The Hatch Changing Pad is a budget-friendly option that doesn’t compromise on quality. Designed with practicality in mind, it provides a comfortable changing surface without breaking the bank. Pros: Portability: The Hatch Changing Pad’s lightweight construction makes it easy to move around the house or take on the go.Both Leah and Lisa say the pad’s surface easily wipes clean, though it also comes with a machine-washable liner. You can also do as Leah did, and choose from a selection of changing pad covers in a range of adorable designs and patterns to add a design element to your nursery. Some reviewers say messes can soak through the surface of this pad, but most say using the liner should prevent messes from getting through to the interior foam. This pretty, minimalist foam changing pad is a European addition to the baby gear scene, created up by Stig Leander in Denmark. I would definitely recommend the Keekaroo Peanut diaper changer to any parent. Even if you only plan on having one child, you will get a lot of use out of it and it can be re-sold or passed on very easily, as it’s a high-demand item.
