I haven't used any other kinds of diapers, but these have worked great for us. They wash well- no stains to date!- remain soft, fit well into Bummi Whisper Wraps, and absorb a lot. We've never had a blowout with poop in six months while using these diapers and Bummis. They have stayed a lot softer than the store-bought pre-folds I got.

I have used these diapers for several weeks now and absolutely love them. I had been using the Indian premie-sized prefolds, but my son is now big enough to fit into these small Chinese prefolds. There is definitely a difference between them. The unbleached CPSs are more absorbant and hide stains better than the bleached IPFs, but the IPFs are softer. I use my prefolds with both Bummis and Thirsties covers. These CPFs are a little more bulky than the IPFs, but still fit under the covers and do their job.

The only downside to these is that they take longer to dry than the thinner IPFs. I hang them outside now that it is summer. I tried them in the dryer once and they were still a little damp after 2 cycles.

If you get these, make sure you wash them several times in very hot water before use to make them absorbant. Taking a hint from another cloth user, I actually boiled mine in a large pot in the stove and then did 2 hot runs in the wash before their first use. They have become even more absorbant with each washing.

I highly recommend these and will buy more as my son grows (although I'll probably purchase them directly from the babybecause.com website so I can get more diapering things and combine shipping).

These diapers are by far the most hassle free cloth diaper. They dry quickly and the covers can be reused without a wash if they don't get anything on them. You can also quickly hand wash the cover and hang it up for a few hours to dry. To start, we bought 30 small prefolds and 6 newborn diaper covers. When she got a bit too big for the covers we bough 6 more size small covers. We have not yet had to purchase larger prefolds. I highly recommend these over any type of cloth diaper.

I bought a TON of these for my baby girl. Not knowing what in the heck to get for cloth diapers. They worked OK for the first couple of months. But when she started sleeping more through the night she began getting rashes. She would be sitting in a soaking, sopping wet diaper for hours. The only alternative was to change her multiple times at night. This created a sleepless night for me, as every time I changed her she would fully wake up and need to be rocked, lulled, walked and cradled back to sleep, sometimes taking over an hour.

I finally switched to Pocket diapers with fleece lining and they worked MUCH better. A bigger initial investment but worth it in the long run.

These prefolds are nice and thick, but they're too long and not wide enough. These have never fit around my baby, but I do use them folded in a cover. My baby was a little larger than average when born (8lbs, 3oz), but they definitely should have fit around her stomach. If you're looking for a diaper to fold and set in a cover, this one is fine, but if you want a diaper that you can pin or close with a snappi, I suggest another company.

I washed the product after receiving it. It has so much lint, I had to take out the lint shaver to get the lint off of it. The diaper is absorbent and soft. I just want everyone to beware of the lint problem.

LOVE THESE DIAPERS!!!! Although I used disposable diapers, I bought these on the suggestion of a friend to be used as burp cloths. Believe me when I say you will find these a million times more absorbent than the cute little burp cloths they sell in the baby stores. And even though my son will be 2 in a couple of weeks, I still use these for when he spills drink, etc. And they clean up great too, no stains after washing them. I would highly recommend.

I have tried SO many cloth diapers over the past four months since my son was born. This diaper is good overall. It is absorbent and a good size. It fits perfectly inside all of the diaper covers that I have tried (BumGenius, Thirsties, and Bummis). I used only one layer of these diapers when my son was under two months old. As he has grown, I have started doubling up, though, or else he leaks right through. My only gripe is that the diapers pill quickly. They are still soft, but the pilling issue is a bit annoying, especially for how expensive these are. My favorite cloth diaper is still the Chinese Prefold Diaper by All Together Diaper. I usually get them through [...].

These where a good buy , very small fit my 6 lb newborn well. They now make great inserts to my diaper covers now that he is bigger and potty training!!

These are the perfect size for my slim 9 pound baby. They say up to 15lbs and look to be true to that. I will be buying more.
