Amazon.com Product Description

A baby in disposable diapers puts an average of 6,000 diapers into the landfills by the time he or she is potty trained -- and those plastic-based diapers take about 500 years to decompose. What's an environmentally conscious parent to do? With gDiapers, you can have the convenience of disposable diapers and avoid doing damage to the planet. In fact, gDiapers even help the environment. Get started with this gDiapers Starter Kit, which can be used on babies 13 to 28 pounds in weight.

gDiapers offer:
  • Flushable, decomposable diapers that offer an alternative to traditional disposables
  • Breathable, non-plastic diapering system that keeps baby's skin healthier
  • Starter Kit that contains everything you need to begin using gDiapers
Flushable, Decomposable Diapers
The gDiaper consists of a machine-washable, reusable cotton "little g pant" and a snap-in, reusable waterproof liner, which contains the diaper refill. These refills are decomposable. Containing no plastic products, they're made from sustainably farmed wood fluff pulp, sodium polyacrylate (SAP), which provides absorbency, and cellulose rayon. And they can be flushed down the toilet, which has a couple of wonderful benefits. First, it eliminates the need to keep smelly diapers around in a diaper pail. Second, it keeps unnecessary waste out of the landfills. And finally, the entire contents of the diaper gets processed by sewage treatment plants, which return treated, completely sanitized solids to be converted into valuable fertilizer. It's recycling at its best!

If you're unable to flush the liners, they can still be thrown in the trash without guilt, since they will decompose in 50 to 150 days -- a much better turnaround than their plastic counterparts. And, if you're a gardener, you can simply throw the wet liners in your compost bin. (Note: for sanitary reasons, never put poopy diapers in the compost.)

As Easy As Traditional Disposables -- but Healthier
The "little g pant" itself sports an adorable style and trim silhouette, and it's available in several cool colors. With easy-to-use rear Velcro closures, the little g pant is just as easy to put on a baby as traditional disposable diapers -- no pins to deal with here. Plus, its breathable qualities help keep baby's skin healthier by minimizing diaper rash.

Tips for Successful gDiaper Use
Some plumbing systems may have problems with the flushable liners, including systems with tree-infested pipes; non-standard plumbing systems, including grinders or house traps; and septic tanks, which require close monitoring to make sure the outflow is clear. It is recommended that only poopy diapers be put into septic systems, and wet ones be composted.

But even if your plumbing system won't accept the gDiaper flushables, you can always simply throw them in the trash where they'll quickly decompose, making an alternative to traditional disposable diapers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best diapering option for baby, parents and the planet!, July 2, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: gDiapers Little gPants 2-Pack Orange & Vanilla, Medium (Health and Beauty)
I love gDiapers! I tried them because they are the greenest option, and also found them to be very practical. Flushing the inserts is very easy, and though it's an extra step it's really not that much work, especially for all the benefits for the planet, and thus our children. That also means no diaper pail to empty.
Fitting them correctly takes a little practice, but once you get the hang of it there are no leaks. I recommend watching the videos on the gDipers website.
As for performance I get fewer leaks with these than with disposables. My water pressure is great so I can flush the inserts without swishing.
The only con is the price, since they are the most expensive diapers and they are not easy to find in stores. Of course the price is because of the materials they use and that they don't produce them by the billions like other brands. Hopefully as more people use them they'll become more affordable and available. Because of this I use cloth diapers at home and gDiapers when traveling or on long outings. Also the gDiapers covers (little g's) can be used as a cover for cloth diapers (using a cloth insert instead of the flushable insert).
A final recommendation: even though they have little g's in lots of colors and patterns on their website, it's cheaper to get several starter kits than to buy little g's separately, if you don't mind only sticking to the two colors that come in the starter kit.

4.0 out of 5 stars good but pricey, July 7, 2008
This review is from: gDiapers Little gPants 2-Pack Orange & Vanilla, Medium (Health and Beauty)
We stumbled across these at a local discount warehouse for a really good price and bought the last three packages that were on the shelf. The refills are nice, but we mainly use the pants+liners with prefolded cloth diapers. The plastic liner holds the cloth in place and keeps wet diapers from leaking through to clothing. Ok at keeping poop in place too -- if you make sure to change it promptly!

Pros:

* "Earth friendly" compostable/flushable inners if you use them this way.
* Works great with prefolded cloth diapers too.
* Lasts (almost) long enough through frequent washing for your kid to grow out of them.

Cons:

* Expensive, especially if you plan to use the disposable refills. May be worth the investment for the savings in regular disposable diapers, especially if you have to pay per-bag for your trash.

* Velcro closures break down over time with frequent washing; we have six (?) pairs and after six months of near-daily washing the velcro is almost useless. When baby starts crawling the velcro needs to hold a little better. We won't be able to "hand them down" unless someone wants to stitch on new velcro pads.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best diaper ever!, July 2, 2008
By 
busy mom "busy mom" (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: gDiapers Little gPants 2-Pack Orange & Vanilla, Medium (Health and Beauty)
We abandoned disposable diapers in favor of cloth when our first child was about 6 months old, and I was *sure* we'd never go back. I'd looked at g-diapers when she was smaller, before we switched to cloth, but hadn't tried them. When our second child was about 5 months old, we planned a 6-day trip, and the idea of having to lug around dirty diapers and find time to do laundry while on vacation was overwhelming. A friend (who loved the product), suggested that I give them a try for the trip - I did, and I LOVED them, I've never looked back. Aside from being eco-friendly, they're the most versatile diaper I've ever used. It's just as easy to use cloth inside as it is a flushable insert, they're adorable, fit wonderfully and are much trimmer than other cloth covers that I've tried. The company's customer service is stellar, and they really go the extra mile for their customers and stand behind their product. I think so highly of the product that it's not my default baby shower gift!

They have also sized the diapers to be long-lasting, my daughter is now 20 months, and has been in a medium since she was 5 months. I don't anticipate that she'll ever need a large, since she's mostly potty trained, but as a joke, we've tried them medium on her 3 1/2 year-old sister, and it's comfortable on her as well.
