<p>Here comes the review of<strong> SgBum Cloth Diapers</strong> that were launched in 2010. Maria, Singapore-based designer and owner of <a title="SgBum" href="http://sgbum.com/" rel="nofollow">SgBum</a>, provided me with a range of her products to try out on Vee.</p>
<p>After several months of testing, I especially like the Grande Suede Cloth Diaper for its trim fit and functionality. The good news is that 3 of these diapers would be given away, so read on&#8230;</p>

<p>PUL is more commonly used than TPU on cloth diapers. SgBum&#8217;s brochure mentions that TPU is soft, elastic, and has good stain and abrasion resistance. The process of TPU lamination is low in toxicity and TPU will biodegrade in 4-5 years if it lands up in the landfill for composition one day.</p>
<p>As for manufacturing in China, I clarified with SgBum and got this reply, &#8220;Our mass production is done by established manufacturers in China who have many years of expertise in cloth diapers and believe in fair trade. This way, we ensure our products are manufactured ethically without compromising the quality.&#8221;</p>
<p>The diapers are available in a range of colours.</p>

<h2>1. Grande and Petite Suede Cloth Diapers</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-and-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4614" title="SgBum Grande and Petite Suede Cloth Diaper" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-and-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper.jpg" alt="SgBum Grande and Petite Suede Cloth Diaper" width="360" height="328" /></a></p>
<p><strong>First Impressions</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-close-up.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4616" title="SgBum Grande Suede Cloth Diaper close-up" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-close-up.jpg" alt="SgBum Grande Suede Cloth Diaper close-up" width="360" height="366" /></a></p>
<p>This is a rather frills-free <strong>two-size</strong> cloth diaper, suitable for mums new to cloth diapering.</p>
<p>I like <strong>suede cloth</strong> as an inner layer for newborns fussy with wetness, especially over longer hours.</p>
<p><strong>(a) Prewash &amp; Laundry:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★★</span> I prewashed the pocket diapers and inserts by hand in warm water &#8212; no colour run even for the red diaper. The microfibre inserts started absorbing well from the start.</p>
<p>For normal laundry, I&#8217;ve been washing them on warm and sometimes on hot. It&#8217;s good that <strong>the PUL is made to withstand hot washes</strong> because I need that whenever Vee&#8217;s eczema and fungal infection flare up.</p>
<p><strong>(b) Ease of Use:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> Hubby certainly prefers the Aplix version, while I&#8217;m fine with both. Since the diapers come in both versions, you can have your pick or have a mix.</p>
<p><strong>(c) Fit / Trimness:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> SgBum Suede Cloth Diapers are designed for a <strong>trim fit</strong>. The original <strong>Petite Suede</strong> version has a relatively small cutting compared to other one-size diapers &#8212; good for getting newborns into a cloth diaper with adjustable rise. It also reduces bulk for petite babies and toddlers.</p>
<p>(I managed to squeeze chubby 13kg Vee into the Petite diaper for the photos below. He&#8217;s certainly too big for it!)</p>
<p>The newer <strong>Grande Suede</strong> version has a more generous cutting, yet the crotch width is narrow enough to provide a trim fit on Vee. This is why he uses it when wearing long pants outdoors. I like it, especially when red is his favourite colour!</p>
<div id="attachment_4615" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-and-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-comparison.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4615" title="SgBum Grande and Petite Suede Cloth Diaper comparison" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-and-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-comparison.jpg" alt="SgBum Grande and Petite Suede Cloth Diaper comparison" width="360" height="411" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Comparing Grande and Petite Suede diapers</p></div>
<p>The <strong>Petite Suede snap</strong> diapers come in a single row of snaps closure. For a slim and mobile baby in Petite Suede, there <em>may</em> be a wing droop issue, so just be aware of this. Otherwise, Petite Suede in Aplix is a safer choice.</p>
<p>As for <strong>Grande Suede snap</strong>, it has 2 rows of snaps closure. The cutting is similar to the Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper reviewed below. We didn&#8217;t get a good fit with the 2 by 2 snaps design, so I&#8217;d certainly prefer the Aplix version. Oh, and the Aplix version allows overlapping flaps for the perfect waist fit, which you can&#8217;t get from the snap version.</p>
<p>The <strong>elastics</strong> at the back and thighs are sturdy yet gentle without leaving red marks. Vee has a big belly, so it&#8217;s good that the diaper rests nicely under his tummy.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;re his <em>sexy</em> bums&#8230;</p>
<div id="attachment_4619" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 610px"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4619" title="SgBum Grande Suede Cloth Diaper different views" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Grande-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg" alt="SgBum Grande Suede Cloth Diaper different views" width="600" height="371" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">In Grande Suede Cloth Diaper</p></div>
<div id="attachment_4618" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4618" title="SgBum Petite Suede Cloth Diaper different views" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Petite-Suede-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg" alt="SgBum Petite Suede Cloth Diaper different views" width="480" height="442" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">In Petite Suede Cloth Diaper</p></div>
<p><strong>(d) Performance: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>Since Vee is day potty-trained, I tested the diapers during his nap. They held up well with 2 regular microfibre inserts. Because he&#8217;s a heavy wetting tummy-sleeper, my top preference for his sleep time is still diapers with front elastics. So these diapers will get more use from baby #2 during the day.</p>
<p>(We didn&#8217;t get to test the diaper with poo.)</p>
<p><strong>(e) Quality: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span></strong><strong> </strong>The sewing and workmanship is generally good. The only flaw is a row of thread sewn too close to the edge of the front Aplix, which led to fraying after several washes. This could be easily mended though. Otherwise, the material has withstood a good number of washes.</p>
<p><strong>(f) Overall Value: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>Each Grande Suede Cloth Diaper retails at SGD28 while the Petite Suede retails at SGD24. <strong>For a petite baby or toddler, the Petite Suede is indeed good value for money </strong>because other one size diapers of similar quality are priced around the Grande Suede.</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p><strong>What we like about it:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Aplix version gives a very snug and trim fit</li>
<li>PUL fabric able to withstand hot washes</li>
<li>Gentle leg and back elastics that leave no red marks on chubby toddler</li>
<li>Choice of Aplix or snap closures to suit different preferences</li>
<li>Option of a lower-priced petite-sized cloth diaper for smaller babies</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Sewing of Aplix tab should be further from edge, to prevent fraying</li>
<li>Include prints in future?</li>
</ul>

<h2>2. Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4613" title="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper.jpg" alt="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper" width="360" height="362" /></a></p>
<p><strong>First Impressions</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper-close-up.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4612" title="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper close-up" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper-close-up.jpg" alt="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper close-up" width="480" height="463" /></a></p>
<p>The inner bamboo layer is <strong>super-duper soft</strong> and would be a luxury for any baby!</p>
<p>The <strong>leg gussets </strong>are designed to keep messes in. This reminds me of explosive breastfed-baby poo&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>(a) Prewash &amp; Laundry:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> I prewashed the Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper and inserts by hand in warm water, and they started absorbing.</p>
<p>For normal laundry, the laundry tab says warm wash while the packaging says hot washes are fine. I haven&#8217;t used this diaper extensively, so am not sure if the waterproof TPU and bamboo layers can truly withstand hot washes.</p>
<p><strong>(b) Ease of Use:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> The Aplix version would definitely be easier to use than the snaps.</p>
<p><strong>(c) Fit / Trimness:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★</span> <strong>The 2 by 2 snaps closure at the waist didn&#8217;t work out for Vee&#8217;s shape.</strong> Somehow, the inserts would slip downwards from the front. Since he&#8217;s a tummy-sleeping boy (meaning very heavy front wetter), we can&#8217;t use this successfully for his naps.</p>
<p>The Aplix version which is similar to the Grande Suede reviewed above should fit him better.</p>
<p>The crotch width is slightly wider than the Grande Suede (perhaps due to the leg gussets?), so it&#8217;s puffier.</p>
<p>The <strong>elastics</strong> at the back and thighs are sturdy yet gentle without leaving red marks.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;re his pictures&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4611" title="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper different views" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Naturelle-Bamboo-Cloth-Diaper-different-views.jpg" alt="SgBum Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper different views" width="480" height="429" /></a></p>
<p><strong>(d) Performance: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>The fit issue affected performance because we could only test it during naps and Vee would wet the front too much. If it were in Aplix, I&#8217;m rather confident it&#8217;d fit and perform better. Plus considering there&#8217;re leg gussets to contain messy poo, I&#8217;m still giving this 4 stars.</p>
<p>(We didn&#8217;t get to test the diaper with poo.)</p>
<blockquote><p>The inner layer is bamboo, which would feel damp when pee-ed on, so this is more suitable as a day-time diaper. For use over long naps and overnight, I&#8217;d suggest adding a stay-dry microfleece liner.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>(e) Quality: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span></strong><strong> </strong>The sewing and workmanship is excellent. I&#8217;d need more usage and washings over the next baby to know the long-term quality.</p>
<p><strong>(f) Overall Value: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>Each Naturelle Bamboo Cloth Diaper retails at SGD32. This is SGD4 more than the Grande Suede Cloth Diapers, likely due to the natural bamboo fabrics and extra materials from the leg gussets. Despite this, it&#8217;s still competitively-priced.</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p><strong>What we like about it:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Very soft bamboo inner layer for baby&#8217;s comfort</li>
<li>Gentle leg and back elastics that leave no red marks on chubby toddler</li>
<li>Leg gussets to keep messes in, especially for poopy breastfed-newborns</li>
<li>Choice of Aplix and snap closures to suit different preferences</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Reduce crotch width for a slimmer fit</li>
<li>Include prints in future?</li>
</ul>

<h2>3. Premium Diaper Inserts</h2>
<p>SgBum also offers 2 types of premium diaper inserts:</p>
<ol>
<li>Premium Diaper Insert: 35cm x 13cm (3 layers)</li>
<li>One-Size Premium Diaper Insert: 35cm x 30cm (2 layers that become 6 layers when tri-folded)</li>
</ol>
<p>The materials used are 60% bamboo, 30% organic cotton and 10% Coolplus. (More information on Coolplus <a title="Coolplus" href="http://www.coolplus.com.tw/coolplus_page05_e.htm" rel="nofollow">here</a>.)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Premium-Diaper-Inserts.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4610" title="SgBum Premium Diaper Inserts" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/SgBum-Premium-Diaper-Inserts.jpg" alt="SgBum Premium Diaper Inserts" width="360" height="319" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I found these inserts interesting because they&#8217;re different from all the others I&#8217;ve tried. Primarily, I use them as boosters behind regular microfibre inserts.</p>
<p><strong>(a) Prewash &amp; Laundry:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★★</span> I&#8217;ve been using them regularly, washed them on hot and they hold up well.</p>
<p><strong>(b) Ease of Use:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★★</span> Because these inserts are 90% made from bamboo and cotton, they <strong>can be laid right next to baby&#8217;s skin</strong> (unlike microfibre inserts).</p>
<p><strong>(c) Trimness / Performance:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> These are <strong>trim and thirsty</strong>, perfect as boosters during naps and even overnight. I especially like the one-size insert that can be tri-folded to give 6 layers of high absorbency. The only downside is they feel rather stiff on their own (still softer than hemp though), another reason why I use them as boosters rather than as standalone inserts.</p>
<p><strong>(d) Quality: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>The sewing and workmanship is excellent. After many washings, the surfaces have started pilling a little, not a big issue though.</p>
<p><strong>(e) Overall Value: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★ </span></strong>Each Premium Diaper Insert retails at SGD9 while the One-Size version retails at SGD12, a reasonable range for such absorbent inserts. <strong>I&#8217;d certainly recommend the One-Size insert as a booster for super heavy wetters for naps and overnight.</strong></p>

<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Snap.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3571" title="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Snap)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Snap.jpg" alt="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Snap)" width="480" height="391" /></a></p>
<p>Finally, I&#8217;m reviewing <strong>bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper</strong>, provided by <a title="Milagro Trading" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.milagrotrading.com/store/" target="_self">Milagro Trading</a> (previously known as Whoopeekiddies). bumGenius is a BIG cloth diapers brand, yet I&#8217;ve not tried it on Vee before, until this 4.0 snap version came along. Many mums starting out on cloth diapering would think about getting bumGenius, so I thought it&#8217;s better to review it for your consideration.</p>
<p>After 4 months of use, I&#8217;m glad to report that bumGenius 4.0 has become a reliable diaper for Vee&#8217;s outdoor trips, with zero leak experience.</p>
<h2><strong>About bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Snap)</strong></h2>
<p>These are the main features of the pocket diaper:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Outer layer: </strong>Waterproof PUL fabric (100% polyester)</li>
<li><strong>Inner lining: </strong>Suedecloth (100% polyester)</li>
<li><strong>Inserts: </strong>Microfibre (80% polyester, 20% nylon)</li>
<li><strong>Insert (One-Size, Microfibre):</strong> 3 layers of microfibre, 3 snaps</li>
<li><strong>Insert (Newborn, Microfibre):</strong> 2 layers of microfibre</li>
<li><strong>Closures: </strong>Vertical front snaps.<span style="color: #ff0000;"> <span style="color: #000000;">2 rows of 10 waist and thigh snaps. 5 possible settings.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Rise: </strong>3 x 3 snaps for 3 settings</span></span></li>
<li><strong>Country of origin: </strong>Pocket diaper made in the U.S.A. and Egypt; Microfibre inserts made in China</li>
</ul>
<p>There&#8217;s also a a hook/loop (or velcro tabs) version. Both are available in a range of light or pastel colours and prints.</p>
<h2><strong>First Impressions</strong></h2>
<p>Ordering bumGenius is a little challenging because of the way the <strong>colours</strong> are named as &#8220;Bubble&#8221;, &#8220;Noodle&#8221;, &#8220;Sweet&#8221;, etc. without full pictures of the entire diaper. It&#8217;s quite hard to imagine and choose. Finally, I got the Butternut, to match Vee&#8217;s yellow clothes.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Snap-Details.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3566" title="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Snap) (Details)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Snap-Details.jpg" alt="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Snap) (Details)" width="480" height="365" /></a></p>
<p>When Vee was a newborn, I loved using diapers with <strong>suedecloth</strong> on him because they&#8217;re very stay-dry and keep him happier. After he started potty-training, I switched to microfleece, bamboo and cotton diapers to help him feel the wetness. Touching bumGenius 4.0&#8242;s suedecloth layer brings back memories of Vee&#8217;s early months. How fast 2 years fly by!</p>
<p>Being a one-size diaper, <strong>its </strong><strong>rise is adjustable by 3 settings</strong>. I found this interesting as many major one-size brands such as <a title="Review: Happy Heinys One-Size Pocket Diaper (Snap)" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/09/05/happy-heinys-one-size-pocket-diaper-snap/" target="_self">Happy Heinys</a> and <a title="Review: Rumparooz G2 One Size Cloth Diapers" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2010/08/10/rumparooz-g2-one-size-cloth-diaper-snaps/" target="_self">Rumparooz</a> use 4 rise settings instead. The &#8220;missing&#8221; row is the Newborn setting for thinner babies.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a <strong>cover at the pocket opening</strong>, which would help to keep the insert in while baby stays dry. The 2 inserts seem rather generic though.</p>
<p>One attractive point is the <strong>easily replaceable elastic</strong> in case it gets &#8220;shot&#8221; after many months of use. This feature is still uncommon among cloth diapers.</p>
<h2><strong>Our Detailed Review</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Rating Guide: </strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">★</span> Oh no!     <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★</span> Poor     <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★</span> Fair     <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> Good     <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★★</span> Excellent!</p>
<p><strong>(a) Prewash &amp; Laundry:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> I prewashed the diaper and inserts by hand in cold water. Even after 1 prewash, the inserts started absorbing, which was a pleasant surprise!</p>
<p>Then here&#8217;s a strange observation: the laundry tabs says the diapers and inserts can be washed 60°C. But the website says to wash in hot at 40°C. From my understanding of laundry instructions, 40°C is warm, not hot wash. Then the warranty page says warranty is valid up to 60°C washes. Anyway, it&#8217;s a load of <strong>conflicting laundry information</strong>.</p>
<p>Over the past 4 months, I&#8217;ve washed at 40°C (my usual routine) and 60°C, when Vee had yeast infection on his eczema patches. Until now, the diapers are still fine.</p>
<p><strong>(b) Ease of Use:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> The diaper is easy to put on with only one column of 2 snaps to fasten per side. Since I&#8217;m familiar with rise settings on one-size diapers, it&#8217;s easy to figure them out.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Tip: </strong>If you&#8217;re new to cloth diapering, or another caregiver is changing baby, try out 1-2 hook/loop diapers first. They&#8217;re easiest to use. When you&#8217;re more confident, then move on to snaps, and decide which type you prefer.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>(c) Fit / Trimness:</strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span> Generally, it&#8217;s harder to get a nice fit with snap diapers &#8212; if baby is in between snap sizes, the diaper becomes either too tight or too loose. With the <strong>unique stretchy tabs</strong>, the snap diaper fits Vee&#8217;s chubby tummy <em>(think 20&#8243; waist for a 2-year old!)</em> very well. I like the gentle encased elastics that leave no red marks on Vee&#8217;s chubby thighs and back.</p>
<p><strong></strong>Vee has grown into the largest <strong>rise setting</strong>. Then, when he slimmed down a little due to the recent bout of diarrhoea, I adjusted the rise down to the medium setting for a better fit at the thighs. This adjustability is an advantage over sized diapers (with no rise settings). Overall, it fits him fine though he&#8217;s in an awkward stage when I sometimes couldn&#8217;t decide on his rise settings. Hmm&#8230; the paradox of having choices.</p>
<p>The one-size <strong>diaper insert</strong> comes with snaps, which I find unnecessary. I simply fold the insert to the desired length. When using the 2 microfibre inserts, the diaper still fits inside his pants.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Tip: </strong>To boost absorbency while maintaining trimness, use 1-2 thin hemp / bamboo boosters behind a regular insert. This combination is great for outdoor trips or even overnight.</p></blockquote>
<p>Oh, have a look at Vee&#8217;s <em>sexy</em> bums&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Different-Views.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3568" title="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Different Views)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Different-Views.jpg" alt="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Different Views)" width="640" height="320" /></a></p>
<p><strong>(d) Performance: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span></strong><strong> </strong>For Vee&#8217;s outdoor trips, I like to use this bumGenius 4.0 with both inserts because it has not leaked before! I didn&#8217;t try it overnight on Vee because he sleeps on his tummy and needs fitted diapers or <a title="Review: Knickernappies 2G Pocket Diapers" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/11/19/knickernappies-2g-pocket-diapers/" target="_self">diapers with front elastics</a>.</p>
<p>The suedecloth stays very dry indeed, good for babies fussy with wetness, though <em>not</em> recommended during potty training.</p>
<p>In the week we battled Vee&#8217;s diarrhoea, bumGenius 4.0 did stand up to the test of keeping the mess in. (In fact, EVERY modern cloth diaper we used during that awful week kept the explosive mess in. That&#8217;s the power of modern cloth diapers with high-quality elastics.)</p>
<p><strong>(e) Quality: <span style="color: #ff0000;">★★★★</span></strong><strong> </strong>The sewing and workmanship is good. After many washings, the <strong>suedecloth</strong> has pilled just a little bit, yet more resilient than microfleece.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Suedecloth.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3594" title="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Suedecloth)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Suedecloth.jpg" alt="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Suedecloth)" width="480" height="323" /></a></p>
<p>The <strong>laundry labels on the inserts</strong> have started rolling up and wearing out at the edges. This sounds very picky but I look for quality in every detail, especially if the price isn&#8217;t low.</p>
<p><em><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Insert-laundry-label.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3593" title="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Insert laundry label)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bumGenius-4.0-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Insert-laundry-label.jpg" alt="bumGenius 4.0 One-Size Cloth Diaper (Insert laundry label)" width="480" height="294" /></a></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>(f) Overall Value: </strong>Each bumGenius 4.0 with inserts retails at SGD35 each, which is in line with the current market rate of one-size cloth diapers from the U.S.A. Thanks to the snap version in the 4.0 range, I&#8217;ve finally taken the leap to try out bumGenius. <strong>Though it isn&#8217;t the type of &#8220;wow&#8221; diapers I get all excited over, it&#8217;s very reliable for outdoor use.</strong></p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p><strong>What we like about it:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Stretchy tabs that give a good fit at the waist</li>
<li>Gentle leg and back elastics that leave no red marks on chubby toddler</li>
<li>No leaks experienced so far &#8212; a diaper I&#8217;d use for outdoors</li>
<li>1 year warranty to give quality assurance</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Provide consistent laundry instructions &#8212; up to 40°C (on website) or 60°C (on label)?</li>
<li>Give clearer names for colours and show pictures of diapers in each colour</li>
<li>Use a better fabric for laundry labels on the inserts and sew them horizontally across instead (so that they don&#8217;t roll up)</li>
</ul>

<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.tinytapir.com/index.php" target="_blank">Tiny Tapir</a> is having a MEGA clearance sale on Rumparooz G2 One Size Cloth Diapers. Vee, our <em>professional</em> diaper tester, has tested the pocket diaper with fountains of pee. We are impressed by its excellent design and performance, and can&#8217;t wait to share the discounted prices with you!</p>
<h2><strong>About Rumparooz G2 One Size Cloth Diaper (Snaps)</strong></h2>
<p>These are the main features of the pocket diaper:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Outer layer: </strong>Made of waterproof PUL fabric (1000 thread count polyester interlock knit with a urethane laminate)</li>
<li><strong>Inner lining: </strong>Made of hypoallergenic no-pill micro chamois</li>
<li><strong>Insert (Large, Microfibre): </strong>Contains 3 layers of microfibre. When folded: 6 layers of absorbency</li>
<li><strong>Insert (Small, Microfibre): </strong>Contains 2 layers of microfibre. Snapped onto large insert.</li>
<li><strong>Closures: </strong>Vertical front snaps.<span style="color: #ff0000;"> <span style="color: #000000;">2 rows of 10 waist and thigh snaps. 5 possible settings.</span></span></li>
<li><strong>Country of origin: </strong>Made in China by a small European-owned company (details of <a title="Kanga Care LLC Rumparooz Manufacturing" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.rumparooz.com/pages/aboutus.php" target="_self">manufacturing standards</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>It is available in a wide range of solid colours and prints, which are aimed at winning the hearts of Mama fashionistas.</p>
<h2><strong>First Impressions</strong></h2>
<p>The &#8220;Ladder 6&#8243; print looks as beautiful as its picture online and is among my favourite diaper prints now. Vee&#8217;s fair skin looks fabulous against the red and blue combination.</p>
<p>The workmanship is excellent and every component of the diaper speaks of quality &#8212; bright colours, luxurious <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">micro chamois</span></strong> fabric, signature label, and even the snap buttons are customised with Rumparooz&#8217; kangaroo logo! The eye to details lifts the diaper-making benchmark way up.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Features.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2030" title="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (Features)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Features.jpg" alt="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (Features)" width="576" height="399" /></a></p>
<h2><strong>How We Tested It</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Prewash:</strong> I prewashed the diaper and inserts with warm water once by hand. No colour run, good.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Regular Laundry: </strong> To rush this review article out for you, the diaper has only been used and machine-washed at 40 degree Celsius 3 times, so it has yet to withstand the test of time. (Note that I have lowered the washing temperature from 60 to 40 degree Celsius. This saves energy and preserves the life span of PUL fabric.)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Ease of Use / Fit:</strong> The 6R soakers (set of 2 microfibre inserts) allow 6 size and absorbency settings. The packaging illustrates the combinations clearly, which is helpful to new cloth diaper users. Personally, I prefer inserts without snaps for more flexibility and to save time.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-6R-inserts.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2028" title="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (6R inserts)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-6R-inserts.jpg" alt="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (6R inserts)" width="512" height="338" /></a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">As for the diaper, there is only one column of 2 snaps to fasten per side, so putting it on the baby is relatively fast. Vee is on the third rise setting and the front of the diaper rests comfortably below his tummy.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I like the thick and gentle elastics that leave no red marks on his chubby thighs.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Trimness: </strong>When using the 2 microfibre inserts, the diaper becomes thick, so I would suggest using this for bedtime. For daytime, I prefer to use only the large insert.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Absorbency: </strong>After one prewash, the inserts already lasted 3.5 hours. The second time round, I adventurously let Vee wear the Rumparooz for an outing. They were completely soaked at 4.5 hours before leaking a little at the back. Microfibre tends to absorb more with further washes. In the meantime, I am satisfied with its initial performance. (For regular use, please change baby&#8217;s diaper every 2 to 3 hours.)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Stay-dry: </strong>Micro chamois stays dry and feels very luxurious even after 4 washes. I like it!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Poo:</strong> Since Vee is potty-trained for poo, we need the next baby to test this area. I am especially excited over the double inner leg gussets and &#8220;poop scoop&#8221; which are claimed to be &#8220;100% leak proof against the messiest explosions&#8221;. Only breastfeeding mums would understand how explosive poop can be.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Parade of Vee&#8217;s <em>sexy</em> bums again&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Different-views.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2029" title="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (Different views)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rumparooz-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Different-views.jpg" alt="Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper (Different views)" width="576" height="368" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">At the clearance sale, the price of a Rumparooz One Size Cloth Diaper with a set of 6R microfibre inserts is RM62.30 for solid colours (~USD20 or SGD27) and RM78.40 for prints (~USD25 or SGD34). The quality and functionality is certainly worth the price.</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p><strong>What we like about it:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Unique double inner leg gussets and &#8220;poop scoop&#8221; to keep messes in</li>
<li>Micro chamois is a wonderful stay-dry fabric &#8212; soft and comfortable for baby</li>
<li>Thick elastics that are gentle on baby&#8217;s skin</li>
<li>Wide range of attractive colours and prints</li>
<li>Packaging clearly illustrates diaper and inserts combinations</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>I can do without the snaps on the inserts</li>
</ul>

<p>After bouncing back from a MEGA flu with fever hitting 38.5 degree Celsius, I am finally able to publish this Review &amp; Giveaway article on Bouncy Baby One Size Cloth Diaper and Wet Bag&#8211; designed by the team at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.tinytapir.com/index.php" target="_blank">Tiny Tapir</a>. Vee and I have tested the diaper over almost 2 months and we like that it is made of high quality materials, good workmanship and the introductory prices are jaw-droppingly LOW!</p>
<h2>What is a One-Size Diaper?</h2>
<p><em>(This short section is for mums new to cloth-diapering.) </em>A one-size  diaper means it comes in only one size (i.e. no XS, S, M, L or XL). It usually fits babies well from 3 to 5kg onwards (depending on the brand) to an average-sized toddler. It is a suitable choice if:</p>
<ol>
<li>your newborn/toddler is nether too petite nor too huge, or</li>
<li>you plan to have one or two children, or</li>
<li>you are on a tight budget.</li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>About Bouncy Baby One Size HEMP Pocket Diaper</strong></h2>
<p>These are the main features of the diaper:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Outer layer: </strong>Made of soft and thick breathable polyurethane laminated (PUL) fabric (Up to 300 washes at 40 degree Celsius or below.)</li>
<li><strong>Inner lining: </strong>Made of Alova suedecloth</li>
<li><strong>Insert (Large, Hemp): </strong>Contains 2 layers of 55% hemp &amp; 45% cotton. When folded: 6 layers of absorbency</li>
<li><strong>Insert (Small, Microfibre): </strong>Contains 2 layers of microfibre. Snapped onto hemp insert.</li>
<li><strong>Closures: </strong>Diagonal front snaps.<span style="color: #ff0000;"> <span style="color: #000000;">2 rows of 10 waist and thigh snaps. 5 to 6 possible settings.</span></span></li>
<li><strong>Country of origin: </strong>Made in Malaysia, in a small dedicated sewing studio</li>
</ul>
<p>The introductory colours are blue and pink, with more to be launched.</p>
<h2><strong>First Impressions</strong></h2>
<p>I received the review sample during the Mom &amp; Baby Expo at MidValley in May, on the first day of Bouncy Baby&#8217;s soft launch. Li from Tiny Tapir described her new diaper with conviction, while coming across as socially responsible and passionate about cloth diapering. I appreciate that she chooses to manufacture the diapers in Malaysia to ensure close supervision and humane treatment of workers.</p>
<p>Both the workmanship of the diaper and the quality of materials used are indeed excellent. It is the first time that I felt <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Alova suedecloth</span></strong> (the stay-dry layer)&#8211; extremely soft and comfortable! This is the most unique point that drew me to test Bouncy Baby out. (Most cloth diapers use suedecloth, microfleece and bamboo. Alova suedecloth is really outstanding!)</p>
<p>The pocket opening has a flap that keeps inserts in place without using elastics.</p>

<p>My review sample comes with an extra set of snaps at the thigh, intended to prevent wing droop for newborns. This feature would probably be removed for newer batches.</p>

<p>Bouncy Baby HEMP Pocket comes with a large prefold size hemp insert and a small microfibre insert. Hemp is known for its superb absorbency, while microfibre soaks up liquid very fast. By combining the two (with microfibre layer closer to baby&#8217;s bums), the diaper technically becomes a super-soaker.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bouncy-Baby-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Inserts1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1572" title="Bouncy Baby One Size Cloth Diaper (Inserts)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bouncy-Baby-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Inserts1.jpg" alt="Bouncy Baby One Size Cloth Diaper (Inserts)" width="576" height="356" /></a></span></strong></p>
<h2><strong>How We Tested It</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Prewash:</strong> I prewashed the diaper and inserts with warm water once by hand . The hemp insert is uniquely designed with a large base opening that allows quick drying. Otherwise, hemp inserts could take a few days to dry since they are very absorbent.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Tip #1: </span></strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Prewash new hemp inserts SEPARATELY from other diaper items to remove its natural oils.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Tip #2: </strong></span><span style="color: #0000ff;">To help hemp achieve its full absorbency faster (i.e. prep it), wash it in WARM/HOT water or boil it once. However, do not boil if it has snaps on it.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Regular Laundry: </strong>The diaper has been machine-washed at 60 degree Celsius and still stays as good as new after almost two months. The Alova suedecloth and hemp insert are still soft after many washes.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">A significant amount of lint was found inside the hemp insert though. I could not tell if the lint was originally present or caught up from the laundry. Anyway, I removed them and wash the hemp insert in a laundry net subsequently. No more lint has been found in the insert since.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Update on 13 Jul 2010:<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #000000;"> Part of the PUL has separated after about 30 washes at 60 degree Celsius. The PUL manufacturer just confirmed with Bouncy Baby that the PUL fabric needs to be washed on cold. Bouncy Baby is sourcing for new PUL fabric. Therefore, if you get Bouncy Baby, please note that it is for cold wash (maximum 40 degree Celsius).</span></span></strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Ease of Use / Fit:</strong> It took a while to figure out how to use the inserts since the hemp insert is really one-of-a-kind. There are 6 snaps on it, and no instructions provided on the packaging. It is possible to snap it in various combinations to meet the child&#8217;s needs (boy / girl / small / medium / large). Hence, I created the step-by-step pictures below to help you understand better how the inserts work.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bouncy-Baby-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Inserts-Folding-Steps.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="Bouncy Baby One Size Cloth Diaper (Inserts Folding Steps)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bouncy-Baby-One-Size-Cloth-Diaper-Inserts-Folding-Steps.jpg" alt="Bouncy Baby One Size Cloth Diaper (Inserts Folding Steps)" width="648" height="413" /></a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong> </strong>This is the first time I try putting on a diaper with <span style="text-decoration: underline;">diagonal</span> front snaps on Vee. There are only 2 snaps per side, which take up little time. He is using the third rise setting and the front of the diaper rests nicely below his tummy. The back elastic is relatively thin, so if the snap settings are tight, there could be red marks on baby. Thicker and gentler elastics would be more ideal.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Trimness: </strong>The inserts combination above, with the extra layers of hemp placed <span style="text-decoration: underline;">in front</span> (for a boy), resulted in a thick bulk below his tummy. Therefore, I would suggest reserving this configuration for naps or night-time only. During the day, I prefer to skip Step 1 for a trimmer diaper.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The diaper with its hemp plus microfibre inserts are designed for night-time cloth-diapering, therefore it is not trim. We use it only at home, so this is acceptable. (Bouncy Baby is also sold with microfibre inserts only, which would be trimmer for day-time use.)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Absorbency: </strong>The hemp insert was absorbent for at least 2 hours even after one prewash. We have tried it for up to 4 hours without any leak. When Vee is changed, the inserts are at most 3/4 full, which means they can last even longer. The absorbency is very high, considering Vee is about the heaviest-wetter in town.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Stay-dry: </strong>Alova suedecloth stays dry and comfy against baby&#8217;s bums, so if your baby is fussy over wet diapers, this is very suitable.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Poo: </strong>No &#8216;luck&#8217; with poo accidents in the diaper as Vee is potty-trained for poo.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I know you&#8217;ve been waiting for this&#8230; View photos of Vee&#8217;s <em>sexy</em> bums below:</p>

<p>It is cloth diaper Review &amp; Giveaway time again! <a href="http://www.momsntots.com.my/home.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Moms &amp; Tots Store</a> offered me a sample of its cloth diaper (listed price: RM75 / S$32 / US$23) to review and even hand-delivered it. I was keen to try it out on Vee because of the unique back-fastening designed for active babies and toddlers who would rather crawl or run away than lay still for a diaper change.</p>
<p><strong>Background: </strong>I found out a bit more about Moms &amp; Tots Store via email with one of the owners:</p>
<ol>
<li>Moms &amp; Tots Store was started in September 2009 by 3 mothers with babies in cloth diapers. They found a product gap in the cloth diaper market and decided to design their own diaper.</li>
<li>The outer PUL layer is 2 mil breathable.</li>
<li>The cloth diapers are manufactured in China. Moms &amp; Tots Store requested its manufacturer to make samples accordingly to its design. Three samples were tested before production began.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-large wp-image-922 aligncenter" title="MomsnTots Diaper (Front)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/MomsnTots-Diaper-Front-1024x869.jpg" alt="" width="382" height="325" /></p>
<p><strong>First impressions:</strong> A snap button is mis-aligned and some threads are a little too near the edge. Then I touched the two uber-soft bamboo-lined microfibre inserts which almost tempted me to rub them on my face!</p>
<div id="attachment_923" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 624px"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/MomsnTots-Diaper-Insert.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-923 " title="MomsnTots Diaper (Insert)" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/MomsnTots-Diaper-Insert-1024x371.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="223" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Bamboo-lined insert: Soft, trim &amp; absorbent</p></div>
<p><strong>Prewash: </strong>I hand-washed the new Moms &amp; Tots Cloth Diaper on its own once and then machine-washed it with the usual laundry twice. (Laundry tip: Wash new garments separately for hygiene purpose and in case of colour-run and lint problems.)</p>
<p><strong>Putting it on: </strong> It took a bit of learning to fasten the Velcro tabs at the back instead of front. Subsequently, it became easy to put the diaper on Vee since he could roll to his side or onto his tummy during diaper changes. This is a welcomed change because he does not like lying still on his back, even when asleep. With the Velcro tabs at the back, Vee cannot undo his diapers. Yeah!</p>
<p><strong>Fit: </strong>Vee is on the maximum rise, so we did not need to use the snap buttons. Anyway, I tried snapping the buttons on and off, and they seemed fine. I LOVE the high-cut design at the thighs (now I understand the benefit of the narrow waist tabs) because they accommodate Vee&#8217;s chunky thighs very well and leave absolutely no red marks. The diaper with the bamboo-lined insert provides a very trim fit and even Vee&#8217;s Daddy complimented his &#8220;tight bums&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>Functionality:</strong> The insert is very absorbent and one was enough to last Vee four hours in the morning. Even though the insert was soaked when I changed him, there was no leak. (We tested the sample several times over the week and there was not a single leak.) Personally, I would prefer the pocket opening to be at the back instead of front, so that I can check if the insert is saturated.</p>
<p><strong>What we like about it:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>bamboo-lined microfibre insert is soft, trim &amp; absorbent</li>
<li>high-cut design accommodates chubby thighs, leaving no red marks</li>
<li>diaper provides a trim-fit</li>
<li>no leaks even when insert is soaked</li>
<li>child cannot undo Velcro tabs at the back</li>
<li>diaper washes well</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>sewing skills &#8212; one snap button mis-aligned and some sewing too near the edge (from the perspective of a sewing-perfectionist!)</li>
<li>offer more colours and prints (to fulfil Mummy&#8217;s vanity)</li>
<li>use more sturdy Aplix tabs (so that they can last through multiple babies)</li>
<li>use PUL fabric that can be washed on warm/hot instead of only cold (I washed the diaper on warm a few times and damaged the PUL. What a pity!)</li>
</ul>

<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-one-size-cloth-diapers.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-691" title="Moo Moo Kow One-Size Cloth Diapers" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-one-size-cloth-diapers.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="309" /></a></p>
<p>I received a Moo Moo Kow™ One-Size Snap Diaper (Mint Green) and a Moo Moo Kow™ One-Size Aplix Diaper (White with Blue Snaps) from Abby (who owns <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.babehause.com/store/" target="_blank">Babe Hause</a> and developed the Moo Moo Kow™ brand) to review, in conjunction with Mummy&#8217;s Reviews first <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/giveaways/" target="_blank">Giveaway</a>.</p>
<p>Moo Moo Kow™ is a new cloth diaper brand registered in Singapore (my hometown, yeah!) and manufactured in China. Like many parents, I am cautious in using products made in China on Baby V and myself. When the diaper samples reached, my husband and I were wowed by them! Each diaper was professionally packaged with clear washing instructions (essential in ensuring the long life-span of cloth diapers) and looked yummy-licious!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-washing-instructions.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-692" title="Moo Moo Kow - Washing Instructions" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-washing-instructions.jpg" alt="" width="252" height="241" /></a></p>
<p>The next thing that impressed me was the two  HUGE microfibre inserts that came with each diaper. One insert is large; the other even LARGER, which make each diaper pack seem great value for money.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-inserts.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-693" title="Moo Moo Kow - Inserts" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moo-moo-kow-inserts.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="195" /></a></p>
<p>The listed price of each diaper including inserts is S$30 or RM73, with discount on packaged bundles. Similar one-size diapers would cost about 17% more. For a mum building a new stash of cloth diapers, the savings would be very significant.</p>
<p>Most importantly, the diapers function as well as they look &#8212; they are easy to put on (since I am familiar with one-size diapers), have gentle elastics and held on well without any leak through 3 to 4 hours, when Baby V would be changed. I love the dryness provided by the inner suedecloth (as compared to microfleece which feels damp). This is the first one-size diaper I have come across that uses suedecloth.</p>
<p>By mere chance, for the sample snap diaper, the laminate separated from the outer fabric. After I notified Abby, she discovered that this was confined to a particular batch of diapers. Being the usual honest Abby, she immediately checked with customers who have bought similar diapers, was relieved that their diapers were perfectly fine and provided assurance for exchanges should the laminate separate.</p>
<p>By the way, I have learnt this from other cloth-diapering mothers: to seal the PUL for some diapers, you may try throwing them into the dryer for one hot cycle.</p>
<h2><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Moo Moo Kow™</span></strong><strong><span style="color: #000000;"> Snap or Moo Moo Kow™</span></strong><strong><span style="color: #000000;"> Aplix?</span></strong></h2>
<p><strong></strong>When Baby V was younger, I enjoyed the convenience of using diapers with Aplix/Velcro tabs, which can provide the perfect fit. Now that he tries to roll over/stand/jump/crawl away during diaper changes, I find snaps much faster in getting the correct fit. It is wise to get a mixture of Aplix or snap diapers to find out for yourself which type you prefer.</p>
<p>From personal observation, Aplix diapers are preferred by Dads, Grannies and first-time cloth-diapering Mums. If you intend to use the diapers on several children, then snap diapers may be able to last longer.</p>
<p><strong>What I like about them:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Outer PUL fabric is the breathable type*</li>
<li>Inner suedecloth layer stays dry</li>
<li>Elastics at the back of the suedecloth layer keeps messes in</li>
<li>Choice of snap or Aplix to fit different preferences</li>
<li>One large and one extra-large microfibre inserts included for high absorbency</li>
<li>Attractively-priced at S$30 or RM73, including two huge inserts</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Only plain colours available &#8212; add cute prints?</li>
</ul>
<p>To get your own Moo Moo Kow™ diapers, visit the list of retailers <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.moomookow.com/shop/index.php?main_page=page&amp;id=2" target="_blank">here</a> or participate in the <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/giveaways/" target="_blank">Giveaway</a>.</p>
<p>* PUL fabric comes in breathable and non-breathable types. The manufacturer has confirmed that breathable PUL fabric is used to make Moo Moo Kow™.</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p><strong>Update after 6 months of use:</strong></p>
<p>Our Moo Moo Kow™ Snap and Aplix diapers still perform as good as new. I find myself using the Snap diaper more regularly than the Aplix one to prevent the tab from wearing out. This way, I could reserve the Aplix diaper for my future baby.</p>
<p>Due to the value-for-money bundle and attractive packaging, Moo Moo Kow™ cloth diaper is currently my favourite baby shower gift to introduce new parents to modern cloth diapering. Several friends have converted to using cloth diapers for their babies and a Daddy friend just bought 12 pieces for his son!

<p><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/knickernappies-2g-back.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-671" title="Knickernappies 2G back" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/knickernappies-2g-back.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="365" /></a></p>
<p>This is a follow-up of a <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/09/05/happy-heinys-one-size-pocket-diaper-snap/" target="_blank">previous article on my diaper hunt for larger pocket diapers that fit chubby-thighed Baby V</a>. After trying out one Knickernappies 2G Pocket Diaper (Large) (listed price: S$26.50) on Baby V over the past month, I love it so much that I have bought five more from Whoopeekiddies during a recent sale.</p>
<p>It is very trim when used with <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/07/21/knickernappies-loopydo-prewashed-inserts-large/" target="_blank">LoopyDo 2G inserts</a> and pants fit nicely over it &#8212; perfect for outings. Since it is a sized diaper, there are less snaps settings to figure out compared to a <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/tag/one-size" target="_blank">one-size diaper</a>. Baby V is using only the second snaps in each row, so I am pleased that there is ample room for growth. Although the rise is a little high for him now, he will grow taller and this would not matter soon. I like the large coverage provided by the wide crotch and front elastics that prevent leakage when Baby V is on his tummy.</p>
<p>The inner fleece layer feels damp during diaper changes, so whether you like it depends on if your baby is particular about dampness. Personally, I find that dampness aids potty-training progress.</p>
<p>Being a side-snapping diaper, Knickernappies 2G offers these benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Independent adjustment of the waist and thigh settings, which is exactly what Baby V needs</li>
<li>Diaper can be pulled up and down to be used as training pants later on, which saves money on getting cloth training pants, especially important since Baby V is already in the pre-<a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/tag/potty-training" target="_blank">potty training</a> stage. (Update: Since he is very chubby, it is easy to pull the diaper now but hard to pull it up.)</li>
<li>Easy to put onto a super-active baby, even if he is standing (Just need to remember the settings, snap four times and the child is free to go.)</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/knickernappies-2g-front.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-672" title="Knickernappies 2G front" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/knickernappies-2g-front.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="312" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I am looking forward to pre-washing and using all the new diapers!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>What we like about them:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Very trim (especially when used with <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/07/21/knickernappies-loopydo-prewashed-inserts-large/" target="_blank">LoopyDo 2G inserts</a>) &#8212; great for outings and under pants</li>
<li>Gentle elastics that prevent red marks</li>
<li>Front elastics that prevent leakage when baby is on his tummy</li>
<li>Wide crotch provides large coverage</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What can be improved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Slightly stronger elastics at the thighs (I am not sure if the current ones can hold in explosive breastfed-baby&#8217;s poo.)</li>
<li>Introduce cute prints</li>
</ul>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3343.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="Drybees Pocket Diaper" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3343.jpg?w=300" border="0" alt="Drybees Pocket Diaper" width="423" height="416" /></a></div>
<p>Before investing in modern cloth diapers, I read tonnes of reviews during my pregnancy and decided on Drybees Pocket Diapers. My first purchase was 5 S-size Drybees from <a title="Review: Babe Hause" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/11/27/babe-hause/" target="_self">Babe Hause</a> (discounted newborn package) and I used them on Baby V from his second month.<br />
<a name="more"></a></p>
<p>They ran out extremely fast as Baby V poo-ed from 8 to 11 times a day! I did not like traditional cloth diapers (lampin) as it was time-consuming to fold them and they felt very wet around Baby V&#8217;s waist.</p>
<p>I bought another 5 S-size Drybees from Babe Hause; the 10 diapers were sufficient for most days.</p>
<p>Even though Drybees Pocket Diapers are popular, the production is stopped this year. When I first received the news, I armed myself with 10 M-size Drybees from Babe Hause and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.miabambina.com/store/Default.asp">MiaBambina</a> before they run out.</p>
<p>Baby V is a large baby with chunky thighs and he started using M-size when he turned 5 months (~8.4kg). I admit to squeezing him a little into S-size for a week or two!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.babehause.com/store/" rel="nofollow">Babe Hause</a> is doing a clearance sale for Drybees pocket diapers at 25% to 30% off. Grab them while stocks last!</p>
<p><strong>Pros:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Velcro tabs: very easy to use and adjust (Daddy changes Baby V&#8217;s diapers and supports Drybees too.)</li>
<li>Inner suedecloth layer keeps baby&#8217;s skin dry and rash-free</li>
<li>Sunning the diapers removes poo stains easily</li>
<li>Leak-free when worn properly (for Baby V: up to 3-4 hours using 1 Drybees microfibre insert)</li>
<li>Roomy pocket for inserts</li>
<li>Attractive prints: save money on buying shorts and satisfy mummy&#8217;s vanity</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Velcro tabs: those on 2 diapers curled outwards after washes, so may not stick as well as before</li>
<li>Elastic not encased with extra row of stitching, so needs to &#8216;roll&#8217; inner suedecloth layer into the diaper (around baby&#8217;s thighs) for better coverage</li>
<li>Inner suedecloth material: 2 different materials used in my 10 diapers. In 3 diapers, the inner material pilled badly. I wished only the pill-free material was used.</li>
</ul>
<p>Despite the above concerns, I still love Drybees pocket diapers.</p>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3337.jpg"><img style="border: 0px initial initial;" title="GAD Mid-Weight Windpro with Microfleece Pocket Diapers" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3337.jpg?w=300" border="0" alt="GAD Mid-Weight Windpro with Microfleece Pocket Diapers" width="558" height="442" /></a></div>
<p>I bought two GAD Mid-Weight Windpro with Microfleece Pocket Diapers (1 small and 1 medium) with the intention for night-time use. However, the S-size diaper leaked several times (the pee flowed right out from between the side snaps, without being absorbed into the diaper insert) and I racked my brains to figure out the cause. Despite a lot of cleaning and changing, I persisted as I loved (and still loves) the diaper&#8217;s trimness, softness and breathablity. Moreover, side-snapping diapers are very suitable for babies with chunky thighs as the the snaps for waist and thighs can be adjusted independent of each other.</p>
<p>Shannon from GAD replied very promptly to my email enquiry with a few ideas:</p>
<ul>
<li>Tuck the flaps back onto themselves so that they don&#8217;t &#8220;get in the way&#8221;</li>
<li>Add a microfibre towel to GAD hemp insert. Hemp insert may work in other diapers alone, but it may be the fit of the fleece diaper needs a little more to fill it up in the front so that is can work better</li>
<li>Make sure when you put the diaper on him his &#8220;goods&#8221; are pointed down.</li>
<li>Not every diaper works for every baby and your baby might just work better with front closing diapers until he gets bigger. Side-snapping diapers are fantastic for mobile babies because they can be put on while the baby is standing.</li>
</ul>
<p>When Baby V grew a little bigger and fitted into the largest setting of the S-size diaper, it seldom leaked (provided he did not squirm about too much during breastfeeding). The M-size fits him perfectly now, as shown in the picture above. Due to the initial leakage experience, I only use this diaper on him for afternoon naps.</p>
<p>Since Baby V has learnt to roll over and fidgets a lot during diaper changes and breastfeeding, side snap diapers are probably not suitable for him at night.</p>
<p><strong>Pros: </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Very soft, comfortable and breathable fabric that is great for baby&#8217;s skin</li>
<li>Trim-fitting fleece diapers</li>
<li>Gentle elastics</li>
<li>Poo is easily removed from inner material</li>
<li>Wash well and inner material is coloured so cannot see stain (even if there is any)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons: </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Potential leakage through in between snaps, especially when baby squirms about or breastfeeds in side-lying position</li>
</ul>

<p>At the rate that Baby V is growing, I figured that he would burst his M-size <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/09/13/drybees-pocket-diapers/" target="_blank">Drybees Pocket Diapers</a> by 8 months old (he is now 6.5 months old). Before he was born, I naively thought that he would be using M-size cloth diapers until toddlerhood!</p>
<p>My hunt for pocket diapers that fit chubby babies with thunder thighs thus began. I searched various brands; explored both one-size and sized diapers; and emailed the manufacturers or retailers to confirm the largest waist and thigh settings for their diapers.</p>
<p>The two finalists were Knickernappies 2G Large and Happy Heinys One-Size Pocket Diaper (Snap) (listed price: S$36.50), both available at <a title="Review: Babe Hause" href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/11/27/babe-hause/" target="_self">Babe Hause</a>. Happy Heinys falls into No.2 position because it is packaged with two microfibre inserts, so comes at a higher price tag. I have recently stocked up on inserts and certainly did not need any more. However, I was sold by the cute Silly Monkeys print:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3360.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3360.jpg?w=300" border="0" alt="" width="300" height="252" /></a><br />
Anyway, the Happy Heinys diaper arrived first and I tried it on Baby V after pre-washing it and the inserts 3 times. It was my first experience with one-size snap diaper and the DOZENS of snaps certainly overwhelmed me! After spending a few minutes figuring out the best settings for the squirmy baby, I was pleased at how well it fitted, with lots of room for future growth.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3354.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.mummysreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_3354.jpg?w=300" border="0" alt="" width="300" height="287" /></a>Both the inner fleece and outer PUL layers were very trim and soft. The elastics were also gentle and did not leave any red marks on Baby V&#8217;s chunky thighs. However, the inner fleece layer feels damp whenever I am changing Baby V. My conclusion is that fleece is not as stay-dry as suedecloth (used in <a href="http://www.mummysreviews.com/2009/09/13/drybees-pocket-diapers/" target="_blank">Drybees</a>).</p>
<p><strong>Pros:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Largest settings are huge: up to 19-inch thighs and 31.5-inch waist*!</li>
<li>Gentle elastics</li>
<li>Trim and soft</li>
<li>Cute designs available</li>
<li>Packaged with 2 microfibre inserts, so is cost-efficient for mums new to cloth-diapers</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Packaged with 2 microfibre inserts, so is more pricey for mums with a large stash of inserts</li>
<li>Inner fleece layer feels damp during diaper changes</li>
</ul>
<p>Happy Heinys can make mums happier by giving an option to buy the diapers without inserts. I will decide which diaper to stock up on after trying out Knickernappies.<br />
