 I recomend opting for an organic or all natural diaper alternativeAug 17, 2009
By M. E. Lloyd
"proud mama"
When I bought these diapers I was new to cloth diapering. I have had these diapers for about 9 months. At first I really loved them. They seemed really absorbent and seemed very soft when we first got them. I had looked at an organic one size AIO but thought these would be better because the fleece was so soft. Also these were a couple dollars more a peice (though, at pinstripes and polkadots they give you a discount--the more you buy the more you save). It was very important to me to have a one size and an all in one diaper as this seemed the most economical to me.
I read the reviews and most people seemed to like these. I did read one review that said these diapers stink, which I didn't understand. I thought as long as you washed them the correct way it would be fine. So, unfortunately, I put all my eggs into one basket and ordered 15 of these diapers. And like I said they were good at first. But then they started to stink, which I thought was fine, I could simply strip them and get rid of the smell. No such luck. Every time I strip them, the shorter the time in between stripping them gets. And it is SUCH a pain to do this.
Lately I have been talking to more and more people about why my diapers stink so much. Apparently, the thing that drew me to the diapers the most--the microfiber--is the thing that does these in the most. For some reason because this is a synthetic material it holds on to bacteria and the fact that the pads in it are so thick (and absorbent) it traps the bacteria between all the layers of fleece and microfiber. They stink and do not wash clean!
Also, if you want that softness of the fleece up against your babies bottom, I understand. This helps to wick away the wetness so babies don't get rashes. I have two points about the fleece--if you want it for softness, after you wash them a million times (as you have to with diapers) the fleece really won't be any softer than the organic material in the other diapers. And in fact the organic material gets SOFTER with washes. The other point is that if you want it there to wick away the moisture from baby's bottom, you can buy liners or even just purchase some fleece at the fabric store and cut it to shape into baby's diaper.
I don't usually write reviews--but I rely upon them so much. If you want a one size AIO diaper go for the bG Organic instead. I totally wish I would have bought these before spending over 300 dollars on these diapers. Don't get stuck with stinky diapers like I am!

 Overall one of my favorite diapersMay 26, 2010
By Ali
I don't agree with the prior reviewer that microfiber always holds in smell. I think it depends on how you wash them. I have used these for over 2 years and no stink. I also have many other microfiber inserts that have no stink associated with them. But I do use a full cap of laundry detergent when washing diapers. Some sites claim that you should only use 1/2 cap or even less which I think is crazy given that you are trying to CLEAN the diapers. I'll also say that after cloth diapering for over 3 years I have never had to strip a single diaper. If you have stink issues I say run the longest wash your washer allows and use a full cap of detergent!
OK on to the review of these diapers. What I love:
1) After many, many, many washings the elastic is still great and the diapers are still waterproof. In contrast the elastic on ALL of my Bumgenius diapers has had to be replaced so this is a HUGE plus.
2) They come in super cute colors and patterns. The patterns are made of true PUL so they are 100% waterproof, not like other diapers that are cotton lined PUL and tend to wick
3) They work great for a wide range of sizes. My older son never outgrew them and had quite a bit of room to grow before they would stop fitting him. My newest baby has just started wearing these and they fit very well in the small setting. He is 4 weeks old and about 10 1/2 lbs right now.
4) The all-in-one diaper is construcuted so you never have to stuff a pocket and they still dry quickly.
5) The double insert means that these are very absorbant. We rarely have leaks and I trust these overnight.
Items I don't like:
1) The interior fleece gets very pilly after many washes. I really wish they offered a suedecloth option on the inside of the diapers since suedecloth really does look nice wash after wash.
2) The snap design can be a bit complex to use. However once you get the hang of it it is fine. It is harder on a newborn since you have to fold down the front. If you use a daycare provider you will have to offer instructions. But I will say after using them for a while my daycare provided requested we bring these because she liked them best so its worth the effort.
 1 1/2 years later they are still going strongAug 09, 2010

These quickly became my favorite cloth diapers and I still love them 20 months later.
