Sweet Pea OS Covers?

I know a lot of you like the sweet pea covers for the newborn phase, but does anyone use the OS?  I see Kelly's Closet is selling them now, and am thinking about getting another cover or two.  They're cheaper than the blueberry coveralls (which is what I am otherwise looking at, since we already have them and they fit well) - just wondering if they're good quality for $5 cheaper?  What other covers are they comparable to relative to fit?  DD is about 50th percentile - definitely on the thinner side when it comes to waist sizes.

I use them. They actually fit a lot like BB coveralls. Not quite as tall of a rise, but close. They are stretchy like the coveralls and have the double gusset. I've been using mine for a good 7+ months and they still look New. No leaks. LO has skinny waist, chunky thighs. Only downfall is you can't dry in the dryer...ever. I guess they delaminate easy.

I asked this months ago when I needed some OS covers for the larger prefolds I decided to buy. The ladies here recommended them and I have 3 and love them. I've used them in the dryer on low heat (because I'm lazy like that, just like I wash my "dry clean only" clothes on delicate) and have had no issues in the 7 months I'd have them. They fit well over prefolds and her WAHM fitteds overnight. No complaints here.

Sweet Pea diaper covers are our absolute favorite covers. Blueberry coveralls are a close second. The price makes the Sweet Pea our favorite. Plus, they are holding up just as well as the BB. And they have two rows of snaps and double gussets.

FWIW, they work for both J. (who is a skinny 3 yo) and A. (who is a chunky 18 month old).

Am I the only one who's not all that crazy about blueberry coveralls?

I'm only 'meh' about them. Sometimes A's inserts slide down and she looks like she's got a huge load in her diaper, and I'm definitely not a fan when that happens. I greatly prefer my flips. Although I like them over fitteds just fine.

DH is the one who likes the blueberry covers - I actually ended up ordering a 2nd best bottoms cover.  The blueberry's were great for us around the 6-7 month mark, but then she got mobile and I think her height increased faster than her weight... Because now the blueberry covers seem too big, even snapped as small as they go.  I don't know...
