tots bots come in a variety of materials have you brought bamboo ones or microfibre?

anything 'natural' like cotton or bamboo can be soaked then washed before use. manmade fabrics like microfibre can be washed then worn.
it just because natural fibres can take a while to reach a good level of absorbency, and soaking gives them a head start.

personally i don't use paper liners i use fleece ones instead.

there are a couple of articles linked in my siggy which might answer some of your other q's.
