PostSubject: CLOTH NAPPY REVIEW SECTION   Thu Oct 07, 2010 3:38 pm

I just thought it'd be a good idea for a review section for all those who are considering using or converting to cloth for their LO's.

Feel free to add your reviews, recommendations, and 'stay clear of's'

So i'll start Very Happy

I used Terry nappies.

Mothercare Terry's - are ok for newborns, but naff for toddlers. They are 60x60cm sq (although after being washed a few times they seem to go more rectangular scratch ) They were good for the 1st 6-8mth, but they soon go very thin, stiff and don't fluff up. All I use mine for now are boosters. Not very good value for money 6 for £9.99.

SCORE: 1.5/5

Junior joy Terry's - Very good, 61x61cm sq..Have been using these a while now and they are very good soakers even for a toddler. They have remained fluffy and soft. Might be a bit bulky for a newborn though as they do seem to cone in a standard size. Although may work with a Jo fold and nappi nippa's.

SCORE: 4.5/5

Wraps

Tiny-eco wraps - good value for money, brilliant for night time use. Velcro/Aplix fastening. Fit nice and snug. Can be used with Terrys, prefolds, and fitted
SCORE: 4.5/5

Ebay cheapies AIO/pocket nappies - Come with a booster but in all honesty the booster is rubbish (well for a toddler anyway) I use my Terry sq's in these, but again they only do a good 2hrs before there's leakage even when the Terry isn't really that wet scratch Ok for having as spares ie; in the change bag or laundry day.
SCORE: 2.5/5

I've just ordered some Tot bot wraps and Bummis nappy wraps so will be back to review them. Very Happy

Oh good idea! I have a fair few to add! You can click on the name of the nappy to see the full description and prices.

Pockets that I use at Night:

Baby Beehind magic Alls
These are actually an All in 1 but with the added convenience of a pocket - so they can be stuffed as much as you like for night. They are WAY too bulky for day time but excellent for night, a very good fit around the legs and good elastic on the back. The standard insert it comes with would be ok for normal wetters but I add my own bamboo booster for night too. These are sized, so not the cheapest option.
10/10 for night 7/10 for day as they are quite bulky

Wonderoo V2
These can take a fair amount of stuffing, ideal for night - the standard inserts are pretty good and I only add a thin booster for night. Lovely fit and very comfy. These are birth to potty so a good buy for your money.
10/10 for both night and day

Bum Genius V3
I dont like the velcro fastening on these, they do a good job but I just dont think they are as comfy as the previous 2 which are minkee. I use 2 of the BG microfibre inserts and that works well over night. They are birth to potty although until the are 6 months old they really are very bulky
8/10

Snap in One Day Nappies

Itti Bitti D'lish
These are my all time favourite nappy! Very easy to use, quick to dry, very compact around the bum - never had any issues with clothes fitting, in fact she is 50th centile and still in some 12-18mth trousers and they fit over the Itti fine.
They are sized so can work out expensive when used from birth - although Itti have brought out the Butto which is Birth to Potty!
10/10

WeeNotions Snap In One
I LOOOVEE these nappies! They are NOT cheap but the fact you can design them in the colours and patterns and add embroidery makes them gorgeous and worth every penny! They are very well made, excellent fit and not bulky at all.
10/10

Pocket Day Nappies

Very Cheap 97K Gallery
These are a great nappy to bulk out your stash at a a good price - they fit fair enough and adding an extra booster they work pretty well, at £3 a nappy you cant go wrong! These are the most recommended ebay cheapies - so if you decide to go down the hong kong route use this seller!
9/10 they dont fit quite as well as I would like round the waist.

The other ones I use are Blueberry Mikee, which I love, but they are very expensive and very rare to find now!

Those blueberrys are the BTP ones - I haven't used them but I expect they are just as good

Mine were the original sized minkees - and they are REALLY hard to find now as they stopped making them in favour of the BTP ones!

I've just got some more wraps -

The Bummis whisper wrap - I got it in a larger size for night time use, although there's some leakage..but i'm not putting that down to the wrap but to the fact its a tad to big for him yet.

Also..

Tommee Tippee Cotton bottoms wrap - I love this one, it fits so snug round the legs and tummy, and has ample room for Terry's, prefold, fitteds etc
