Sleepsack Velboa Wearable Blanket Medium Reviews Summary

Size and Fit

Pros:

• "We got a large in this one and it is HUGE, but we were thrilled about that because she can hopefully wear this for a very long time."
• "These armless ones are great for when the baby is ready to have their arms out."
• "This sleep sack worked great for our son."
• "The size large sack fits my one year old really well and she's on the bigger side."
• "Perfect size to grow into."
• "It fits fine around the arms and neck and she sleeps great in it!"
• "Now at 11 1/2 months old the small sleep-sack finally seems to fit him appropriately in the shoulders/arm holes/chest area but his toes touch the end of the sack if he really stretches all the way out."

Cons:

• "It turned out to be a bit big for her, as she is smaller (around 5lbs when i bought it)."
• "I bought the 'Large Size' which is the same size she is now wearing, but the product was too long."
• "Definitely turned out to be more of a weird pastel lime green color. Not yellow. Which was disappointing."
• "I had the impression that this would be a little on the big side for our large-than-average (80% for height) daughter but it turns out that it's HUGE... I wanted it big so she could grow into it. That said, it's HUGE- like it could literally fit a 4-5 year old."
• "I bought this for my infant son and it was definitely on the small side."
• "It’s huge but the arm holes are small."
• "I am still waiting for her to grow into it."

Comfort and Design

Pros:

• "It is so soft and my baby falls asleep so much quicker when wearing it."
• "She sleeps very comfortably in them."
• "These are fantastic. They still allow her to roll over and sleep sprawled out, but keep her warm enough without over-heating her."
• "The design is super cute and the product well-made."
• "So soft and cozy. It's much better than the fleece sleep sacks, which always turn really rough and scratchy after washing a few times."
• "Love love love these."
• "The cotton is very soft and high quality."

Cons:

• "The outside is super soft, but the inside is nowhere near as soft and has become almost scratchy with regular washing."
• "This sleep sack is a suffocation hazard."
• "The fleece kind of surrounds the one side making it a bit difficult to get it the zipper together."
• "The zipper is extremely loud on this one."
• "Nothing special about it. And, for this price, you could get two similar quality sleep sack from carters."
• "If I dressed her warmly for bed (winter gown and socks) I usually found she was too hot, even sweating."
• "This sleep sack is a suffocation hazard. This sleep sack was so big and baggy on my 9 month old that when she rolled onto her stomach the sack came up over her mouth and nose."

Utility and Quality

Pros:

• "Peace of mind has been my greatest reward in using them."
• "Zipper opens front he bottom to help with easy diaper changes without having to take the sack off."
• "It has stayed soft after several washings."
• "The dual zippers for nighttime changes is amazing and it has held up perfectly (still super soft and looks almost new, even after 6 weeks of wearing and washing)."
• "The fleece weight is warm enough to keep her toasty in winter."
• "They have been washed several times and hold up like new."
• "Also, the great thing is that they zip from the bottom so that you can change diapers in the middle of the night without removing the whole sleepsack!"

Cons:

• "My one little complaint is that sometimes the zippers turn and the tab to pull up and down is stuck sideways."
• "The only trouble i've had is that it is a little tricky to seat the zipper correctly."
• "Only because the zip goes from the top to the bottom which is super painful to put on a moving baby sometimes and I feel it makes it harder to use over time."
• "Lastly, the sacks are a little expensive."
• "I’m upset about finding it so much cheaper at Walmart."
• "I do wish there was some sort of locking mechanism on the zipper."
• "I gave 4 stars because the zipper gets messed up a lot, which is annoying."
