I have several other brands and styles of cloth diapers, but these are by far my favorite. They are the softest, size the best, and I've never had a leak. I started using these diapers when my baby was 5 days old (after the meconium passed- cause honestly, who wants to be scrapin' that off) and they've fit nicely straight from the beginning (she was 8lbs.) I highly recommend this brand!

With my first 3 children I never considered cloth diapers.....wish I had! This time around w/my 4th child I decided to really do my reaserch on cost, and took into consideration the comments everyone left on the different cloth diapers.

At first I used gDiapers.....they are a very good cloth diaper, they worked great! But my daughter has super sensative skin, and almost anything causes a rash on her. Point is...... those caused some irritation from the plastic liner, and I had to stop using them.

I started using disposables, but they were irritating her skin realy bad! So I tried using the old school style of cloth diapers w/pins......works ok, but is a pain when your baby starts to really squirm around!

I was in Babies R Us and saw 2 of these in the store that where returned, so I bought fhem to try out. They are GEAT! Best cloth diaper I have found! The liner is super soft, and wonderfully absorbent! I've been using these ever since! Best investment! Ive never had a leak! Most often when she pees I only have to change the inner liner, because the diaper linner itself is most often still dry! These diapers are wonderfull, and the color and pattern variety is great! They have even more on their Web page!

As for size, you should really go to the main Charlie banana web site to get accurate sizing. On there it does say the one size should fit: 6-35 lbs., x-small: 5-10 lbs., small: 7-18 lbs., med.: 15-30 lbs., lg.: 25-45 lbs.

Also on their Web site they have a "what you need to get started list". Its pretty acurate, and was very helpful for me!

Sure the diaper is a little bulky.....but seriously all cloth diapers are! Remember nothing in life is ever perfect. So that said, I don't mind the bulkiness....especialy when there are so many pros vs the 1 con!

My youngest is now almost 8 months old, and I'm still using Charlie banana. I plan on trying out their swim diaper this summer. :)

I have a 5 month old that weighs almost 15lb's. I first purchased these diapers on a wimb b/c someone had returned them to the store and they were in the clearance section. The color's are what caught my eye and I IMMEDIATLY fell in looove with them. I never really thought about cloth diapers before. I washed them a few times as recommended and started my baby girl at night with them to see how she would do. It was tricky getting the right setting at first, but after the second night I had it down to the right size and she has been wearing them for a month now. I have since purchased a size small and also the medium's to see it they would fit better based on the size chart. I actually prefer the one size over the sized b/c they seem to fit better since I can adjust the leg size. They are easy to wash and none of them have stained yet. She is just starting on baby food like pea's and sweet potato's so her poop is a little more firm then it was when I was nursing her. I can't say enough good things about this product.

I rinse out the inserts and diapers right away and drape them over the hamper until I have enough to do a load. When she poop's in them I just shake it off into the toilet, or wipe it off with toilet paper and toss in the toilet. I also keep a small spray bottle of oxy clean for cloths in the bathroom so once I rinse out the diapers if there looks like there will be a stain I can tackle it right away. Drying them in the sun also helps. (Just a little advise).

I am anxious to try the disposable inserts too. I just ordered them so I'll keep you all posted. : )

I had purchased a dozen cloth diapers from another brand and absolutely loved them. I had a gift card to babies r us and thought they would be pretty much the same thing, so I invested in these. They are not as soft as my others. They leak unlike my others. They don't wash as well as the others. I love cloth diapering but will not be investing in any more of this brand. I've gotten better quality for less than 1/3 of the price.

These diapers are on the smallest setting on my 3 month old, so I wouldn't recommend them for newborns. I just got these diapers 2 days ago and they're now sitting in the bottom of the bin for backup if I run out of good diapers before doing laundry.

My boy/girl twins were born at 31 week gestation and ended up in the NICU. At three weeks old I asked the nurses to try one of these diapers on my daughter to see how it is, so i can make the decision to buy more or not. The nurses LOVED this diaper, and said after 3 hours of use, the inside lining was dry to the touch and the only part that was wet was the pad inside. My daughter is currently 5 pounds and 4.7 ounces and it was a little big on her, but not too bad. My son is 4 pounds 7 ounces, and it was huge on him... I had the setting on the smallest, it was just big around the waist. That's the only reason i gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Other than the size, it is perfect!

I would recommend it to any mom who wants to save money and be kind to our planet!

Just do not use any old diaper rash cream, it will ruin the lining and will not soak urine. Use the California Baby diaper rash cream, that one is ok for cloth diapers.

Great pocket cloth diaper. Started using once baby hit about 12 lbs. Adorable bright colors. Perfect for every day use. Would double up the inserts for night time use. But that's pretty standard for all my pocket diapers. Great buy or registry item!

This was the first cloth diaper I tried and I plan on sticking with them! They are so cute, soft, and clean really well. I haven't had any leaks! The one size allows you to adjust the leg elastic and is very simple to do. There are a few things I don't like about them. You have to stuff the pocket in the front so after it is soiled you have to touch the wet front to get the insert out. There is a flap on the pocket so you can't just shake the insert out. They are kind of small for a one size. I have the elastic on medium and the bigger insert that comes with is very bunched up and you have to move it around and smooth it out before you put it on. Other than that, they are great!
