First off, the fabric is *dreamy*—super soft and breathable, just as promised. My newborn practically melted into it during those early sleepless nights. The organic cotton feels gentle against their skin, and I never worried about overheating.

The Velcro? *Strong.* Like, 'wake-the-whole-house-if-you-undress-the-baby' strong. It kept my little Houdini contained... for about 6 weeks. After that, they started wriggling an arm free (cue midnight swaddle re-dos).

Durability’s the real hitch though. After a month of washes (and let’s be real—newborn laundry is a *warzone*), two swaddles developed tiny tears near the Velcro seams. They’re still usable, but I side-eye them during late-night changes.

For the price? Solid starter pack—just don’t expect heirloom quality. Pro tip: Buy these for the newborn haze, then upgrade when your baby graduates to escape-artist status.
