* NOTE: Bamboo / cotton shrinks more
than other diaper inserts, so consider going up a size when ordering these inserts.
Not exact matches
Cons: - Slightly bulky, does not fit in
diaper bag - Most require
insert for newborns - Must adjust all straps between wearers - Buckles and straps can be difficult for caregiver with existing neck or shoulder conditions - Not as cuddly, though some woven wrap conversions are very soft - Less budget friendly
than other options
Although designed specifically to stuff inside pocket
diapers, the four layers of absorbent hemp / cotton jersey found in the 1/8» thick PREMIUM Joey Bunz, can also be used to boost absorbency in any cloth
diapering system yet offer a trim, but more absorbent, fit
than other inserts.
The hemp stains more easily
than some
other inserts I've had, but it is super absorbent and these make any
diaper super trim!
While I didn't test Ella Bella Bum's
inserts (I opted to use some from my own stash), this
diaper is trimmer
than most - partly because it is narrower through the crotch
than some
other pockets (ex: bumGenius), and partly because of the light - weight athletic wicking jersey inner stay - dry layer.
That said, with the exception of my Tots Bots v3
diapers, I have been using bamboo and cotton almost exclusively this time around and the degree of staining is no worse on my Smart Bottoms
than it is on my
other inserts.
I do have
diapers that were washed in regular detergent and bleach before I learned, the PUL is gone, the elastics went sooner
than others and the
inserts are almost paper thin, but some I have had for almost 4 years washed in Rockin Green have good elastic, thicker
inserts, PUL is fine and I have no leak issues....
These are my favorite pocket
diapers because the
inserts are more absorbent
than any
other microfiber
inserts I've tried.
