5.0 out of 5 stars I do flips for my FLIP diaper!!!, June 17, 2010

When I started cloth diapering last year all I had was some covers and prefolds. Cloth diapering was fine at home, but NOT out and about because the prefolds were just not absorbent enough. I was changing kids constantly (2 in diapers at the time) and having leaks like crazy. I only had 2 AIO (all in one) diapers and that wouldn't last long out of the house.

So with baby #3 on the way I bought about AIO (not naming the brand in this post) diapers, 6 in small and 6 in medium. At my baby shower I was about to show them off to one of my cloth diapering friends until she gave me my gift- a FLIP diaper.

After trying this diaper I was and still am kicking myself for buying all those other diapers. This one is soooo much better for me in comparison.
See, I have 3 in diapers, 33 months, 21 months and 4 months.

The FLIP is PERFECT for me! And here's why: The FLIP diaper is a one size (something I had never heard of until that day), so it will fit each of my kids. All I have to do it snap it to the size I need for whichever child. No sorting or digging through my basket to find the right size diaper. Nope. All I have to do now is just grab the cover and the insert and go!

And that's another great thing about the FLIP, is the insert. It is also one size. On the insert, you just fold it to whatever size you need: small, medium and large. The insert is also incredible because the top feels dry even when it's soaked! It's also crazy absorbent! Until the FLIP I had to use disposable diapers on the kids for their naps because all my other diapers couldn't hold that much pee (their naps are 4 hours long).

My only grief about the insert is how much water it holds! My washer is on the fritz and doesn't spin water out good. So it does take my inserts a little longer in the dryer or on the clothes line to dry. But that isn't a product issue- just my washer. :)

Overall I would totally recommend this cloth diaper! It's great if you have a few babies of different ages/sizes in diapers or if you just want to save money and not buy different sizes as your child grows. This diaper can last you from newborn to potty training and back again on the next kiddo :)

4.0 out of 5 stars New Flip diaper shell, June 17, 2010

I am a mom of 8. We were Huggies users in the past. But with my youngest daughter (now 15 months), I read about the GDiapers and decided to give them a try. LOVED them. However, after a few months the velcro started wearing out. Also, as with most velcro items the velcro sticks to (and sometimes ruins) other clothes. We didn't want to stop using GDiapers as they leave no real footprint on the environment, and they are so good for baby's butt. So...we decided to try some different snap on cloth shells and see if any would work with the biodegradable GDiaper inserts we still had.

The "FLIP" diaper won, hands down. It works fine as a cloth diaper. But we can use the GDiaper inserts and they actually work BETTER with the FLIP shell than with the Gdiaper! Yay, No Velcro! The shell is washable and so far has never stained. No leaks yet either. We bought several more and as our GDiaper shells get replaced, we are replacing them entirely with FLIP. We primarily use the biodegradeable GDiaper inserts rather than true cloth.

My daughter is a VERY petite 15 month old (about 17#). She's got LOTS of growing room in the Flip. I don't know if it would quite work on a newborn, but it wouldn't take long for the FLIP to fit. I am pretty sure the FLIP will take us all the way to potty training.

Whether you go for full cloth or a hybrid like we did, the FLIP is a quality product. Easy to clean, The bright solid colors are great (won't show thru clothes like the prints can). The snaps won't mess up the rest of your laundry like the velcro pocket diapers will. I assume this diaper will last a long time, based on our experience thus far. Give the landfills a break and try it out! :) ......as side note, as initially expensive as cloth diapers can be, please keep in mind just because a diaper has a bunch of positive reviews, it doesn't mean you will like it too. I highly reccommend buying one of several different ones and experimenting to see which works best for you and your baby. If you plan on going full cloth, you might consider the biodegradable Gdiaper liners just for outings. It is kinda gross hauling a buncha poo around, LOL.

UPDATE May 2011: Our Flips have been convenient and durable. We could have used them all the way thru potty training, but we ended up taking the leap and going full cloth. We still use the FLIP at night, and the Flips have plenty of life left in them. We have never had elastic or snaps wear out. No staining problems, and the waterproof layer is still functional on every single pair. We also now use them as back up on baby number 9, born in March. I still reccommend the FLIP for full time use as an alternative to disposables, for daycare, or as a transition from disposables to cloth. I have found one brand I prefer to FLIP (Weehuggers), but the FLIP is a good diaper and lower priced than most.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for low budget!, March 8, 2010

The Flip diapers have snaps instead of Velcro, which comes in handy when washing (and also if your little one learns how to un-do Velcro). The many snaps can be a little confusing if you've never used them before, but the Flip diapers come with picture instructions for different size babies. The inserts simply lay inside the cover (tuck under flaps at the front and back), which makes changing a diaper pretty quick! When changing, simply toss the insert into your pail, wipe the inside of the cover, and place in a new insert. You can use the same cover several times!

The stay-dry inserts that come with the diapers worked great for Sydney! She didn't even leak over her naps (which has been a problem even with disposables occasionally). You can also buy disposable inserts when traveling to make cloth diapering on-the-go easy. We also tried a regular pre-fold insert with our Flip diapers to see how well it would stay in place and we had no trouble with it either! These diapers are very slim as well, which allowed Sydney's normal jeans to fit (we've had to go up a size in clothes for some cloth diapers).

We love these! The price is great for Mom's on a budget and it is made by an already trusted company, Cotton Babies.
