Several people have asked what I like and dislike about the diapers I carry at my store. So, here goes:
BG Likes:
they have worked out a lot of the "kinks" (ie. wick resistant modification which lessens leaking onto clothes)
they come with an infant insert and a regular insert
they are cute
they have the "one-size" so that baby can grow
they fit babies from 8-35lbs
you can bleach them
inserts can be snapped into different sizes to correlate with the diaper size
look like traditional disposable diapers
BG Dislikes:
velcro sticks to everything
velcro makes the latch side "pilly" and over time doesn't hook and latch as nicely
they take 2-4 weeks to ship out my orders (since I'm a "little guy")
the legs don't work for thinner- legged babies- not tight enough
RM Likes:
work at home mom makes them
made in the USA
easy to order- ships quickly
for a snapping system, they are less expensive ($20w/insert vs. $24.95-BG comparable)
snaps don't attach themselves to anything
they snug tightly around baby's legs to prevent leaking
they fit any shape and size baby- 5lbs to 30lbs
cute color combinations
look like traditional disposable diapers
RM Dislikes:
if baby produces lots of urine, sometimes it will wick onto clothes (but Tracie- the maker- says that you can just place insert in and leave about an inch of room to prevent this)
can't use regular bleach on them- but you can use a color-safe bleach.
they sell out quickly, so sometimes it is hard to place the order
the insert comes in one size- but you can buy your own and buy the diaper only (for $17.95)
