Good quality aplix?

Sgriff1

So I've recently bulked up my OS stash now that my LO has finally outgrown her NB dipes and I chose all snap diapers because I want to use them well into potty training. When ordering, I specifically asked my DH if his mother (who will be our caregiver) has any type of arthritis in her hands that would cause her to have trouble with snaps...and he told me no. Well yesterday, MIL was putting on a diaper and mentioned to me how those little snaps really make her notice the arthritis in her hands! Agh! I feel like such a jerk now!

So I'm super upset because it looks like I will need to buy a few new aplix diapers. I love the softbums aplix, but wondering if there is a more affordable pocket or AIO that has heavy duty aplix that will last?

I don't know about more affordable, but Tots Bots aplix is awesome. I've also been really happy with my rumparooz aplix. Thirsties recently started using a new aplix, and I've heard it's good as well. I would avoid Bumgenius/Flips

@bookitup says "If you do use a pocket, Kawaii HD2 is a cheap pocket that has awesome aplix (easy for daycare) and holds up well. It also fits for a long time because they get so big."

Sorry book, stole that off another of your posts.  Just wanted to share your wise wisdom.

I love the HD2 tabs from Kawaii and the new aplix from Thirsties is awesome.

My fav is also SoftBums. Kawaii HD2 is the most similar I've found.

Best Bottoms is decent, so is Blueberry.

@blondolphn and @bookitup This is hilarious because in my head I couldn't remember which one of you two always recommended the HD2 for aplix.  Turns out it's both of you!

I will second (or third or fourth or whatever) the HD2's.
