Details | Cost: $23.50 solids and $25.50 prints from KangaCare. |
Fits 6-35+lbs |
Pocket shell outer made from TPU with microchamois inner with double gusset. |
Available in snap or H&L closure; Rise adjusts snap down rise in 4 positions |
2 microfiber inserts (1 newborn size and 1 full size) that can be used separately or together with 6 overall options. Hemp and bamboo inserts available for additional cost. |
Likes | The soft inner gusset keeps poop in without leaving red marks on chubby thighs. |
The double gusset makes a large pocket that is very easy to stuff. It is possible to add quite a bit in the pocket which is especially helpful for overnight. A PF fits easily. |
The outer TPU is smooth and soft. It seems to be a higher thread-count than other pocket diapers. The microchamois inner has held up without excessive pilling. |
The smallest rise setting means that a newborn can wear this, although it will be a bit bulky. |
Personally, I love the lower rise as it works well for my daughter's shape. She has a buddha belly and baby booty, but has a smallish waist. Diapers need to be able to snap under her belly and have generous cut rear to provide full coverage. |
No issues with leaking. |
Dislikes | Low rise can mean plumber butt on chubbier babies, or babies with a longer rise. For a month or so (10-11 months old) these didn't fit my daughter terribly well. Once she started walking, she slimmed down and these fit even better than they had previously. |
The microfiber inserts were were absorbent but I had issues with stink. The hemp inserts are very absorbent and I have had no stink issues yet but they become misshapen with washing. The layers of hemp twist and it is difficult to get them to lay flat. |
The large pocket opening is located in the back of the diaper and, with particularly messy poops, poop ends up inside the pocket. |
The inner gusset is great for keeping poop in the diaper. They also end up being a bit hard to get clean because poop is caught in the gathers. Overall this is not a huge issue as I always manage to get them clean and stain-free but it's still worth mentioning. |
Comments | These seem to be pretty hit or miss with people. Some love them and others hate them. The main issue seems to be the fit- these still fit my daughter at 18 months but I know mamas who stop using them after just a few months. |
Overall | These are well made and easy to get. They are not as generous in the rise as some diapers but for certain babies this is not a problem. The materials are good quality and has held up well. I'm excited to try these with our next little one in the smallest settings. |
