How many washes does H&M baby stuff last?

We're looking to get some sleepsuits (pretty much the last thing we need) and I'm tempted by H&M. The only thing is I'm pretty much convinced that the cheaper they are, the fewer washes they'll last before going all bobbly and needing binned. Is this right?

Don't really want to be buying millions of sleepsuits and onesies if I can help it. Smile

I used H&M vests until I couldn't squeeze DD in anymore, lovely bright colours, right shape (for us anyway), washed as well as any other, and in the early days, grown out of far sooner than needed binning (barring a few poonami incidents!)

H&M baby clothes lasted x2 DCs for me, great quality. Shame their adult clothes don't last as well!

Ooh fantastic - thanks so much! I think I'll pop in today and see what I can pick up. Smile

I have found that the sleepsuits that wash best are good old marks and Spencer,next are pretty good too
My dd has some h&m dungarees and tops and I must say they wash beautifully but they are made of more hard wearing materials.

Well, I bought vests and sleep suits in h&m 2 1/2 years ago for DD, they've been through 2 other children and are back for DS, they look like new, kept colour and shape, fabric feels very soft now, no bobbles.

Agree with every one else - great quality for the price and lovely bright colours. Most stuff has either been grown out of or worn out before falling apart in the wash.

Although I have found some of the sizing to be off, mostly stuff being comically too big, e.g. shorts size 9 months, ended up giving them to DS to wear at 21+ months and he can even still fit into them this year (currently 2.6). It's only been the odd item though, and i get a lot of his clothes there, so don't let that put you off.
