this bib be much more comfortable for the baby than a plastic bib . I agree with the other reviewer that the neck hole be quite large -lrb- which can be fix easily with the velcro closure -rrb- and the bib itself be very short . I have have it since my son be about 8 month old , and the pocket come right at the level of the high chair tray-which then smash the pocket shut . it be a very good length for the travel type high chair\/booster seat though . for a cloth bib , it clean very well . I clean it by rub it with a soapy washcloth and rinsing . it dry by the next feeding . it have pill with this cleaning method , but that do not bother I . so far nothing have stain it , which be impressive . I do not find just rinse it to be a very effective way to clean it . my biggest problem with this bib -lrb- and many other -rrb- be the velcro . the pocket do not stay shut and my son can easily rip the bib right off when he be tire of wear it . Banana also get on the velcro the first time we use the bib and it be still there many cleaning later . I would not buy this bib again mainly because of the velcro . snap closure would have be much better .
