This cover started out as my favorite. My son was a couple of weeks old and I was in LOVE with this cover. Well, he's now 5 weeks old and this cover won't even last through a 3 hour nap before leaking and soaking his clothes and bedding. For such an expensive cover, I expected a LOT more. Bummi's whisper wrap is much better, and available on Amazon. Outside of Amazon my favorite brand by far is Thirsties. Check out Nicki's Diapers (google it) for much more selection and better prices. I got my money back on this Swaddlebees and bought two more covers (a thirsties and a prowrap) for two bucks more, and Nicki's offers free shipping on all covers.

I love this cover. It is very cute, and nice and soft on the outside. So far, it has held messes in quite well. I have no used it for overnight yet though. I used it over my Swaddlebees fitted diaper and it fit great. I accidentally ordered one-size too large, but that's ok because you can overlap the Aplix. I High recommend these :)

Great diaper cover, fun colors. Velcro used is strong but a little stiff and can scratch baby's belly if the cover rolls in. Overall though I like these and would buy them again.

Sent these to my baby neice(well, to her parents anyway) and they loved them! I believe they ended up buying several more! I love practical items that are also stylish!

This cover is one I put on him when I want him to look cute. Let's say he is wearing blue jeans & a shirt & I think it might peak out the back of his jeans. When my son was a younger baby, I hated these covers. It didn't do as well around the legs & it would get a little wet too. As he got older, this cover started fitting better around the legs. He is now a year old and I wish I had more. I still go to my thirstie covers while at home since the velcro does wear out on any cover when used often, but I do love these covers.

I'd say these covers are better for older babies or toddlers.

This cover was kind of stiff and I didn't like it. I'd prefer to use something softer so my daughter is comfortable playing. I think I used them once and sold them.

We have been doing cloth diapering for about 6 months now. It is not nearly as time intensive as one might imagine. In fact, if you hate shopping, as we do, throwing a load of diapers in the wash is much eaiser than running to the grocery with a baby.

That being said, Swaddlebee's are my second choice; we use wool covers for the most part. We have a variety of other covers for backup, car trips, and sometimes nights.

The first couple of months we were changing diapers all day. Our daughter was a two diaper minimum...(she would pee as soon as a new diaper went on). The bummis were huge on a newborn and the swaddlebee's have been a much better fit. (She has the baseball-in-the-tummy-chubby shape more than a skinny-baby shape.)

The colors for Swaddlebee's are great and they seem to be leak-proof. I haven't had any fading. I just throw these in the wash with the diapers and line dry. They dry quickly and are ready to go. I also find that these tabs come apart less in the wash than the Bummis. This is annoying about the Bummis as the Velcro gets stuck to everything, including itself.

[On a side note: If you are unsure about wool covers, they do have a learning curve. But this is the only real way to go completely organic/ natural with cloth diapering. Other "organic" covers are generally made of polyester fleece.]

Nothing revolutionary, but it works well, washes well, and has been good for us. Had it for a couple of months now, still looks and works like new. I'll be buying more when my daughter moves up to the next size. She's 7 months, about 20lbs, and pretty chunky. The medium works well and has room to grow.

It LOOKS like a Bummis, but isn't as leakproof and doesn't hold up as well. Easy to use, though, and adorable colors.

The velcro on this diaper cover wore out in about 1 month. The diaper fits nice, just wish the tabs were a little bigger or atleast better made.
