I bought this for my wife to assist her in breast feeding our new baby. It does serve its purpose well, supporting both mother and baby at comfortable angles and offering back support. It is much better than pillows and makes the sometimes difficult job of breast feeding easier.
Being a breast feeding aid, it is inevitable that at some point your little one is going to vomit or spill milk on it, this happened to us. We removed the cover and washed it as directed with the zip done up on a gentle wash in the washing machine. Next came the difficult part: We had great difficulty in replacing the cover due to the shape of the support foam, the cover only has one zip that you have to manipulate the foam in to. The zip is only made of cheap plastic and came apart during this process which rendered the cover useless with a broken zip. It was returned for a replacement.
Given the cost of this item, for what in effect is a lump of foam and cotton cover with strap; I would have liked to have seen it made with a stronger zip mechanism or better designed to enable ease of cover removal/replacement.
Given the negtives, my wife still loves it and thinks it's the best thing to assist breast feeding.
