I have been pleased with the performance of this product overall. I do agree that they are too big for the diaper but I also cut them in half and double my amount, making a perfect fit.
HOWEVER, I would be very careful about flushing these. I just spent $225 for a plumber to come and snake out our main drain. Guess what he found? A big wad of diaper liners (and I've only been using them for two weeks and flushing only the soiled #2 ones). From now on they will be bagged and go in the trash. he said they probably would not create an issue if the drain was brand new PVC, but the old style drains cannot tolerate such products. Buyer beware!!!

I bought these to use on my 2yr old. I never bought them before as I felt it sort of detracted from the cost-effectiveness of cloth diapers. However he now only uses diapers for naptime & bedtime so I felt the extra cost was worth a few minutes of my time (I now have a 5month old as well in cloth so the time is worth more). It was completely worth it & I'm officially spoiled! No more dunking & scrubbing 2-yr old poop! They have had no negative impact on my septic system.

Also thought i should note, as others have, that if the child has not messed on the liner I wash them with my diapers & they usually stand up to 2 washes before falling apart. Great value.

I've tried 3 brands of liners (Imse Vimse, Biosoft, and Kushies) and these are the BEST!

Using the baby size (about 10" long) they cover more than enough for my 14 month old, and any overhang I just fold/stuff in. Though they are not the softest, they do the job and wash well when mixed in with dirty diapers. We wash any that are just wet (and obviously toss the poopy ones), and they soften to the texture of a dryer sheet. They don't get snagged in any velcro or caught in our lint compartment of the drier (unlike the Kushies).

Super easy to use, and Dad friendly. I'll be sticking with these for the remainder of our diaper years.

So we've been using these liners for a few months, since my son made the move to solids and breastfed baby poop was no longer the only thing going through the wash. Blech! We have a front-loading washer, and the rinse cycle doesn't do a fantastic job of agitating all the solids out.

Before going further TMI... here's the run-down with the Imse Vimse liners:

-- REUSABILITY: What people say about them being washable and reusable is entirely true. I've had some liners that I know we've washed and rewashed a few times. A huge plus considering the cost.

-- COVERAGE: The liners cover the diapers very well. That said, they're really wide like others have noted. This doesn't bother us but it may be aesthetically unpleasing to some. (We use the liners with BumGenius 3.0 and Fuzzibunz dipes.) Others have said they cut the liners but we haven't done this yet.

-- CONVENIENCE: Huge, huge factor in us continuing to buy these liners. There is nothing like being able to take the poop and saying the ultimate goodbye in flushing it down the toilet. No dealing with the yuck or stink in your garbage.

- UNEXPECTED: These can easily be mistaken for dryer sheets! Our son goes to a childcare center, so we've had to educate the providers, particularly substitutes, that these are actually liners. :)

- OVERALL VALUE: I'd give it 5 stars based upon convenience, reusability, and coverage. Of course I'd like a cheaper price, but I don't know what would be sacrificed to do so. When you're a parent (especially of more than one child, as we are) and working hard doing laundry, etc. to keep your baby's bum clean and environmentally friendly, a treat like the Imse Vimse liners is definitely worth it.

Cheers.

it's a great product, works well even on newborn poo. If not soiled you can wash together with the diapers and re-use up to 4 times before it starts to break down. Worth every penny.

I bought this liner because it was the only one available on amazon at the time. It is my least favorite liner I've tried. It was too wide for the diapers so it has to be folded to fit, and its really thin and scratchier than others. I will say that so far it hasnt broken on me, so its held up as far as usefulness goes, but its an annoyance to put in.

Diaper liners are a must for cloth diapering once a baby is on solid foods and has "solid" poopies. They eliminate the need to soak/dunk diapers in the potty many times. (It's not the liner's fault if they rumple or fold up sometimes once the baby starts to crawl and walk.) Most of the time you can lift and flush the poopie, and maybe use a wipe to clean off the little extra mess left of the diaper. These are a generous size. If they are only urine, they wash fairly well with the diapers with some shrinking for a 2nd use. I highly recommend this product.

There are lots of liners for cloth diapering out there, but this is the only one I know of that is washable. I can wash them about 4-5 times before they start to fall apart. If you are using cloth to save money, then this is the way to go.

I've been spraying my diapers all this time. I can't believe how much easier this makes the job. If I had known what I was missing before I never would have waited so long to try them. Everyone who takes turns changing baby agrees that these liners have been the best thing we've done yet. In fact, I haven't even had to use my diaper sprayer since getting these, which is nice because I often vacation and no longer have to disconnect and reconnect a sprayer onto toilets wherever I stay. Also a plus when changing baby somewhere I couldn't/wouldn't want to dunk a diaper (like a public toilet). Even with very soft messes it's a savior. Most of a soft mess, if not all, comes out with a simple lift of the paper and solid messes are always contained! I also feel it's been reducing the amount of potential stain on my prefolds because of the paper barrier reducing the contact of the waste to the cloth.

The reason I had hesitated before was because I thought that one of the reasons I wanted to use cloth was to avoid anything harsh, scratchy, or papery on my baby's skin. Why use soft cloth to then slap paper on top? In reality, while they're not super soft, they're so thin, I feel like they compact and mold well to the baby and don't seem to irritate at all. Additionally, I find I can wash the liners that had been urine soaked a few times with the soiled diapers before needing to toss it and after being washed they get very soft, like a very thin and gauzy cotton which feels almost pleasant to the touch.

I will absolutely keep using these and recommend them to everyone I know who is currently diapering.

We decided on Bum Genius diapers for our son before he was born 17 months ago and to go with those diapers we started using flushable liners. Imse Vimse's have worked fine for us. If he hasn't deposited a solid in his diaper, these liners are good for at least 2 more washes. When he does use the liner "totally" then we simply drop his deposit and the diaper into our house's horrible 1970's plumbing. Never had an issue. They work as advertised. We usually get two 200 pks at a time and they last us quite awhile - I think we've made 4 purchases so far.
