Any item meant to catch baby poo should be able to go into the machine
These are a fantastic idea, but utterly fail in the execution. Call me crazy, but I think that something that is expected to catch feces with any frequency should be washable in hot water, and dried in the machine. The instructions on these indicate they are to be washed in cold water on a delicate cycle and air dried. Seriously, who has time to separate baby's laundry into multiple loads for washing and then remember to air dry certain items when your head's scrambled by sleep deprivation? I put these in the dryer, hoping they'd survive, but the backs melted together; I tried to pull them apart gently and it just ripped great holes in the rubber-like backing, so they're no longer waterproof. I just use a cloth diaper instead -- they're absorbent enough to catch most accidents, can go right into the hot water wash to get good and clean after a mess, and are cheap enough that I can buy enough always to have a fresh one to swap in.
