I bought this to labor in. Maybe people complained about how its not hemmed and seems cheap. Its Cotton Jersey fabric, so  yes it is thin, but its soft, breathable and comfortable. Jersey fabric does not fray, it rolls in on itself. Besides this is meant to be a throw away gown, not reusable. Id rather pay thing price than a lot more for an ugly gown that you will get messy with and throw away anyway. Its very comfy, I tried it on, even though I am still pregnant. I  can definitely be comfortable wearing this during my homebirth.
Im 5'5 and 210 full term right now and it fits perfect, long enough to where I still feel covered but its easy to open the front for monitoring. The headband seems pointless to me because it just won't work for my hair type but I didn't buy it for the headband.
