Warm Glow Wipe Warmer

Ok let’s be real. Everyone poops. Some of us even BLEED? MONTHLY? Crazy stuff! Anyway I’m here to say: babies are gate keeping this device. I’m so serious. Why do we need to be a man and wipe with cold wipes when these exist? Answer: we don’t. This thing is no-nonsense and it gets the job done. Open container, insert wipe of choice (mine is the mint dude wipes, trust me on those), close and lock the main compartment, plug it in. Voila. Toasty warm butt or bits wipes. This is the difference between an okay morning and a GREAT morning okay. I’ve had zero issue with wipes drying out in this thing, it’s not hot to the touch, it doubles as a nightlight and comes with a cord long enough for me to have it chilling on the back of my toilet tank. Cost wise, this thing is on sale at the moment for $15 when the competitors want $35? No brainer. Astounding. Also the main compartment has locks so you don’t knock the thing over and spill your wipes everywhere when it’s 3 am and you’re not 100% sober. It’s amazing. Please buy a warmer for your butt wipes and thank me later.

When we got home from the hospital with our baby having the wipes warmed was a non-negotiable. As new parents we couldn’t stand hearing our baby scream and cry because of a cold wet wipe! Now that he’s a few months old we really don’t need it but since we have it we use it. Pros: Keeps wipes warm Happier baby Cleaner tush since you don’t have to rush the cold wipe off Holds a pack of wipes easily Keeps all of the wipes warm not just some They stay moist! Cons: If you aren’t using it regularly the wipes will dry out and the top ones will have a brownish tint to them due to them being heated and not as moist. Really don’t need it once they are older Every time I purchase something online, I always check the reviews. I count on others to help me choose the best option.

I love this! I don't have a baby - I use it for myself. I have severe RA and some days I just can't get out of bed from the pain. This sits next to my bed and has Amazon Baby Wipes Sensitive in them Amazon...

I actually love this wiper warmer. My little guy was born in January of 2012 and I wanted something to keep the diapers warm that was low maintenance. First a brief warmer history -- For my first I use to just run the wipe in warm water - this got tidius and old very quickly. For my second I bought a warmer and hated it! I had to fill it so much that the wipes were dripping and if not then it would dry them out! PROS AND CONS PROS *Heats from the top (this is also a con...see below) so you get a warm wipe quickly and always warm *Low Maintenance *Easy to unplug when leaving for long trips *Like Clear View section to see how many wipes are left *Lid Secures nicely *Rubber around where the wipes dispense, makes it easy to start a refill without hurting your fingers and holds the next one in place really well, grips the wipe so that you can get them out. CONS I will give you a few tricks at the end to help with some of the CONS - *Heats from the top -- Dries out the top wipe after long period of no use (Usually over 24 hours) * Does not hold an entire refill pack of wipes With this warmer I actually love it as long as you do a few tricks - DO NOT FILL IT SO FULL so that the lid smashes down the wipes - this means that you probably will not fit the entire refill pack in your warmer. I do one of two things with the extra wipes - 1 - add them to my diaper bag wipes or 2 - put them in a ziploc baggie to save for later use. UNPLUG IT - if you are going to be gone for a while you should unplug it so that it does not dry out your wipes while you are gone. WIPE IT DOWN - when your wipes run out - just do a quick wipe down with a paper towel of the inside - I usually only do this once a month - put I know others who do it every time they run out of wipes so they do not forget. ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER - if you add a SMALL amount of water it will go a LONG way. I usually add about 1/4 of cup water. I do not pour it all on the wipes themselves just a little on the top and them the rest on the bottom of the warmer on both sides of the wipes. I usually know I need a little more water when it no longer condensates on the small blue lid of the warmer, so when I lift it up it makes a small little drop of water in the grooves. I hope this makes sense and that you find it helpful - THANKS!

Years ago when I became a mom for the first time, other mothers bombarded me with information about which products were essential and which were wastes of cash. Every mother I encounterd said that a wipe warmer was a huge waste of money that would dry out my wipes. I liked the idea of a wipe warmer though and doggedly held onto it. I selected the Munchkin Warm Glow Wipe Warmer and was never sorry that I chose it. A wipe warmer is exactly what the name implies. It warms the wipes. It isn't going to be hot or even as warm as if you ran it under a lukewarm faucet. Think of the liability on the company. They'd be sued all the time for burned or scalded baby bottoms. It just barely warms the wipe to a more comfortable temperature. Many reviewers have said that it barely registers to their touch for more than a second. Well, I had a December baby and he noticed a huge difference all winter. He startled and cried when I used a wipe from the pack versus a wipe from the Munchkin Warm Glow Wipe Warmer. I don't care whether it feels warm to me--I want my baby to be comfortable. I also hear a lot of complaints about the wipes drying out completely or turning brown in this product. In two and a half years, I have had this happen one time. I have used Pampers, Huggies, Publix, and various other store or national brand wipes in this product with no fail. The one time it happened I was using the Walmart brand wipes, and frankly, they did such a poor job cleaning my babies bottom that I wouldn't have continued using them anyway. My husband and I really enjoy the push button that illuminates the unit in the middle of the night. It made changing the diaper (for urination, only) without turning on the lights a habit. The only complaint I have is that my son eventually tore the blue fold up lid off the unit, but after two and a half years and a minimal investment in the unit, we figure it did its job faithfully and have no reason to complain. I will not hesitate to purchase one for a baby shower. It helped make diaper changes a little more pleasant for all of us.

This wipe warmer is an absolute must-have for new parents. It makes those late-night diaper changes significantly less jarring for a sleepy baby, as the warm wipes prevent the usual cold shock that can cause tears and fussing. The "Warm Glow" nightlight is a brilliant feature, providing just enough soft light to see what you're doing without being too bright and fully waking the baby (or you!). It's simple to use and does a great job of keeping wipes moist and at a consistent, comfortable temperature. While it uses a bit of electricity, the peace and quiet it buys during a 2 AM change is well worth it. Highly recommended for making life with a newborn a little bit easier.

As a wipe warmer, this has worked continuously for nearly two years and we've never had issues with it. The temperature is good - it really makes diaper changes go better not having the shock of a cold wipe. It does tend to accumulate condensation inside, but it's easy to clean so I've never been too bothered by that. However, I am deducting two stars because the white (not warm white) light is too bright, it illuminates the whole room. It's nice to be able to push the button and have a light to change a diaper by at night, but the fact that there's no way to turn off the night light after the main light is off is really annoying. If it already had a button to control the other light, what's so hard about making the button turn off both lights if you press it twice, for example? I wouldn't mind if it were a warm light, but it's too bright and cool at night. It's hard to cover it up since it glows through the plastic, and if you cover the entire wipe warmer it gets too hot. If it weren't for that one issue, I would have given 5 stars though.

We decided - with two in diapers - that we could save a lot of money on wipes by getting cloth wipes along with a wipe warmer (I'm in Idaho, and slapping a cloth wipe full of cold water is just what you don't want to do before bedtime or in the middle of the night!) I have had the wipe warmer for a couple of months, and have had no trouble out of it at all. We also bought the Thirsties wipes - 3 packs - and I dip them in a baking soda/water mix, fold them in half, and I can fit 16 or 17 of them in the warmer. The wipes can get a bit warm on top, but never warm enough to burn a little bottom and when you get to the bottom they are still warm enough not to jolt your little one awake. This has worked out great and the only time we use disposable is when we go out. If you decide to give this method a try - a few words of warning - don't allow too much water in the wipe warmer, as it will leak out when it reaches the blue half moon on the bottom half of the unit (learned the hard way). I saw reviews about wipes drying out...so I would put them in and pour in a little water to be on the safe side...but it turned out I did not need to do that at all with the cloth wipes. The other warning is that baking soda and dresser finish don't get along very well, so be sure to put a mat or something down between the warmer and the dresser (if that is where you put it). Another plus of this unit is that you can disconnect it from the cord plugged into the wall to bring it where ever you need to. I saw some reviews that included complaints of mold and black discoloration, but I have to say that (I think) because we use the baking soda/water mix, I have not had any issues like that at all. I will just rinse it out with water between wipe fillings.
