Advantages: Portable, Well made quality item, reduces need for large changing bag

Disadvantages: Need quite a large handbag to fit it in...

Having recently had my baby changing bag stolen, I set about searching for items to replace the missing items in the bag. Instead of buying another changing bag, I found a gorgeous handbag and decided to buy a Oi Oi Travel Changing Mat to convert it into a makeshift baby bag.

Whilst looking for these, I managed to find several stockists online and made my purchase from Kiddicare.com. The bag cost me £22.00 and I went via Quidco to get 4% cashback. I chose the Pink Floral design, which is very pretty and vibrant looking and has a chocolate brown inside.

When the mat was delivered I was pleased to discover that it was nicely wrapped in a Oi Oi branded carrier bag and then an inner plastic cover with Oi Oi written on it and a velcro tab. The changing mat inside was wrapped in tissue paper for added protection.

The mat is quite large and folds up nicely to a 34 x 23cm size and is secured with a velcro tab. There is a small black tab on the side with the brand name on it, but apart from this there is no other branding on the actual product. When you undo the velcro tab, the mat opens up to a 60cm long padded changing surface which is wipe clean and appears to be comfortable for baby.

There are two fold out sections on either side of the changing pad - one clear plastic zipped pocket for a small pack of wipes/nappy sacks and a patterned (matches the design pattern) pocket for nappies. It is especially good as it folds up so neatly and the fabric means that it isn't a cold surface for my little one to lie on.

Whilst the folded item is quite large, it fits nicely into my handbag, but is also very useful for putting in the bottom of a pushchair when out and about if you don't want to lug a huge changing bag about with you.
