Bumgenius flip nappies http://www.fill-your-pants.com/all-i...p-organic.html

Style - An 'all in two' birth to potty nappy

Absorbancy - 9/10 - These nappies have 2 types of inserts, a microfibre pad, or an organic cotton prefold. I use both with Harrison and find that they are both very absorbant, but the organic cotton insert is probably the better of the 2.

Ease of use - 9/10 - Very easy to use, just pop your chosen insert in, then popper on your child! When change time comes, if they have done a wee, or just pooed on the insert then you can take the insert out and put a fresh one in, reusing the actual nappy which saves having to do extra washing!

Drying time - 9/10 - The microfibre inserts dry quickly, where as the cotton ones take a little extra time. Maybe 24 hours on an indoor airer, plus a quick tumble dry to soften up. Although they will dry quicker if hung outside.

Design - 8/10 - Plain colours and no prints, so they are a litte boring. They have recently bought out some different colours which are ok, but again nothing exciting. But as these nappies work so well for us I don't really mind about the colours.

Value for Money - 9/10 -A bit on the expensive side to buy to start off with, if you bought extra inserts with it, that would make it more economical.

Overall marks out of 10 - 9/10

Tots bots cotton tot (now discontinued, but you can still pick them up on some online nappy shops at a reduced price, and they are often for sale preloved)

Style - Fitted/Sized cotton nappy (needs a wrap over the top)

Absorbancy - 10/10 - Im using these nappies on Dom and they are super absorbant on him

Ease of use - 9/10 -The actual nappy itself is very easy to use, just flip the booster into the nappy, then secure onto baby. The ones I have use nappy nippas which are a bit tricky on a wriggly baby, but there are ones that have applix (velcro) to secure them with.

Drying time - 9/10 - About 24 hours on an indoor airer, or all day on the washing line. I tumble dry mine for 10 minutes afterwards as they can get a bit crunchy after drying.

Design - 5/10 Quite a boring nappy, mainly available in white or natural, although you may be able to find some coloured ones floating about. They also give Dom a huge bum as they are quite a 'fluffy' nappy!

Value for Money - Good value for money if you can get them preloved, and like I sad above a lot of websites selling them are selling them at discounted prices

Overall marks out of 10 - 9/10

These nappies are made of hemp and have an attached pull out booster. The pocket style means you can add extra boosters for night time. They are quite bulky but I use them mainly at night or if we're stopping at home and they're a good way to bulk a stash as they can be found reasonably cheap. The sizing bands are quite generous as well so should fit for longer.

Hello all - I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your reviews. to start out I will be using the naughty baby nappies from ebay to see if I like cloth. I was so scared that I would be the only mum wanting to use cloth, and according to my friends and family I will regret it, but hopefully not and THANK YOU! Really!!
