How do you clean it if the child gets something on it? Babies make lots of messes so I was concerned about the plush fabric.

Not sure; our little guy spit up a little on it, and we just cleaned it right away with soap and water. This is such a great toy that it's worth it!

It is now almost a year old and being used by my 3 and almost 2 year old great grandsons and looks as new as the day they got it last Christmas. My Grand daughter keeps a neat house and did not think to ask her what she used to clean it. It mostly is washable and heavy plastic which is easy to clean.

The horses can be spot cleaned or use a Tide-to-go pen. One of our rocking horses is 6 years old and has gone through 3 grandchildren & their neighborhood friends so far. It still looks amazing! No special cleaning has been needed. Just use mild soap and water if it somehow gets soiled, or the Tide pen.

Ours is under a tree and it will get a little dirty if it rains on it, due to the debris falling from the tree. also I noticed that the fabric shrunk a little after the first rain.

Yes, I had this problem when I was using the bath pad as well! I stopped using it though because it gave my daughter a terrible rash all along her back side after about two months of using it. I think because it's impossible to get really clean it started growing mold or some kind of bacteria inside of it. Just make sure to watch your baby's back for a rash while using it! :)

This was a gift for my granddaughter, who is 5 years old. For her it is decorative, so cleaning has not been an issue. Sorry I can't be of more help.

What smell? Mine didn't have an unpleasant odor, but I have washed the cover on gentle in our washing machine once with no issues...Not sure you're supposed to do that but I have a small toddler so I went for it.

I'm with Mantej! Baby boy spit up all over his set. I threw it in the washer and dryer and it came out just fine. I wasn't even aware that it had to be hand-washed.

it says surface wash only. I think it means just wipe it with damp cloth. The surface that touches the baby does not touch the outside surface except the head portion where the extra cushion is when it is folded.

I have not cleaned mine as yet but I would worry about it becoming very wrinkled. Mine arrived badly wrinkled and I'm very disappointed in it. Let me know how you make out washing it.Hopefully it takes care of the wrinkles. I find it very warm. Have to take it off even on the coldest nights. Can't imagine using it in the summer.

Hello, In my opinion no, it would seem that a soft cloth that's not abrasive should clean it, maybe a little window cleaner on the cloth.

It's cloth and plastic. I haven't had mine long enough for it to get dirty, but I think you could just wipe it with a damp cloth.

We have only cleaned it a few times. Haha... The seat cushion and straps are what seem to get messy. And they clean up fine with just a sponge.

We covered it in receiving blankets and plain white cloth diapers, so it stayed pretty clean. Otherwise we wiped it down with a disinfectant wipe and warm water. The dark color nylon is wipe off easy to clean as well as the white part, it is covered in plastic, which the receiving blanket helped to not have on cold baby skin too.

We just vacuum the dust and cobwebs from it - haven't needed to wash it yet. When you do wash, make sure not to use fabric softener.

Just a mesh on a seat. Baby wont get out from it easily due to its shape contoured to body shape. i didn't use the mesh, given soap might get into it during the bath time. i know we can clean it, but i don't know we can clean 100% between the baths.

I would just wipe it with a soapy washcloth or Clorox wipe if it was real yucky. It's a vinyl material inside.

I washed mine with my diapers in Seventh Generation liquid detergent. It doesn't leave a residue and is sensitive to baby's skin.
