I buy these originally after a friend recommend they , and I have be please with they . I buy two of the two pack for I , plus several more as baby shower gift . we do not ' need they as burp cloth as much as we daughter be not a `` urpy '' child , but they be nice and absorbent for drool or general wipe up , even if it be just mom 's spill water bottle . I would keep one in each area of the house we hang out in for clean up . we be start to use they as bib now , and while the fit at the neck could be a bit snugger , they absorb lot of rice cereal spit out with drool , yet still wash up look almost new . they be also big enough to be a small nursing shield if you forget you cover up . they will not cover everything , but they give the illusion of coverage .
