SnugBug: Diaper Changing Mat Review

Have you ever tried to change a diaper in the back of a car? Um, yeah – totally NOT easy or fun. In the past I’d have to lug around an old blanket in the back hatch of our car and then spread it out when I had to change a diaper, but now I have a super cute, durable and handy diaper changing mat that I carry in my purse and I actually WANT to whip it out and use it! Ha!

About a month ago, I was contacted by Heather of The Snug Bug. She wanted to know if I wanted to review one of their products – their diaper changing mat. I didn’t even have to think about it because all I could envision was that old blue blanket in the back of my car that I could say adios to! Ha!

I was able to pick out a pattern that I liked and within a week I had a new diaper changing mat that I could try out.

There were some really great patterns to choose from, but this is the one that I ended up choosing. I loved the pattern and the colors and it wasn’t TOO girly or TOO boyish, ya know? Perfect. I see they’ve added this blue chevron one now and I totally LOVE, too! Ack! That one might have been better to use for Luke, but it wasn’t available when I picked mine. :)

The first thing I noticed right away was how compact it was! I LOVED that! I can easily slip it into my purse! It was also super durable feeling – loved the stitching and feel of it.

It’s waterproof, wipeable and washable and it’s made of a laminated cotton that won’t soak up smells or stain. Yes!! It is super thin and very light, too – so just another plus when it comes to being able to carry it with me in my purse. It seriously rolls up to the size of a pair of sunglasses!  I am ALL about that because as you Mamas know – we carry A LOT of stuff, both in our purses and in diaper bags. IMG_5865

The mat measures 17″ x 25″ when it’s laid out and it’ll last until your baby is out of diapers. When it’s rolled up – it’s compact size is  8″ x 1.5″.  I’m totally going to pass this onto my sister when she has a baby!

I love that the mat is CSPIA tested safe for babies and kids, and free of harmful chemicals like BPA, PVC, Vinyl, and Phalates. All products from The Snug Bug are boutique quality and made in the USA. I just love that and their attention to detail is fabulous!

What a great baby shower gift this would be! I would have LOVED to receive one of these at my baby shower! Cute!

Thank you SO much to Heather and the rest of The Snug Bug gang for allowing me to try out their diaper changing mat!

You can find The Snug Bug’s website HERE and their Etsy shop HERE. You can also find them on Facebook HERE.  Be sure to check out their sites because they offer a lot of other really great products, too!

Have a great day everyone! Hugs!

    Hi Kristina,

    Thanks so much for your wonderful review! We are so happy you love your mat and recommend it for moms who want something more practical and pretty. It is a little different in that it’s not a big, padded mat, but once we got a chance to use it with no more stains or smells, we were hooked. Thanks for sharing it with your readers!

    What an awesome little changing mat. So small and portable. I love the material it is made out of, it looks easy to clean.
