What are your favorite pockets?

edited June 2014 in Cloth Diapering
I'm thinking about picking up an extra OS pocket or two to diversify my stash. Only pockets I have now are the kawaii LGB and some BG 4.0s that we use mostly at night. But I like pockets for when we're out and about (and for when grandma changes them)and I don't hate stuffing.

So what are your favorites? Do any pockets have double gussets? The less bulky the better :-)

Re: What are your favorite pockets?

  • The regular Kawaii and BG 4.0 are my favorite ones for stuffing since they have a wide pocket. The Thirsties have double gussets, and come with a mf and a hemp insert, but have a narrow pocket. I'm not too fond of my Nicki's pocket and my Diaper Safari one is okay. I also liked my SoftBums Omni since I could use it either as an AI2 or a pocket.

  • Right now rumparooz.

    So I'm not a huge fan of Rumparooz covers. Are the pockets a similar fit or totally different from the covers?

  • I have a couple of Thirsties Duo size 2 pockets that have held up really well. They are the only pocket diapers I have where I'm still using the inserts that came with them.

    I think the Duos have been discontinued in favor of an OS pocket ... have seen some decent reviews about those as well.
  • I think they're different. They don't have he front elastic (at least the ones I have don't but they're older). They snap down really well and they're so squishy inside.

  • I love Thirsties Pockets!  They have double gussets, comes with a hemp insert and small MF insert that snap together and although the pocket is rather narrow it's open on both sides for easier stuffing. 

    Rumparoo pockets also have double gussets but I haven't tried them

  • Rumparooz are pretty awesome they make up most of my stash, the pockets are a better fit than the covers, plus they are super soft. They are really trim but I also use bamboo inserts. The pocket is in the back but not at the very top, it's a little bit lower than my other pockets so it's a little difficult when dealing with poo, but for me the rest of the quality of the diaper makes that worth it. 

    Lil Bums are my ONLY night time diaper. They are the only ones that last through the night for my super heavy wetter. The pocket is wide and at the very top back of the diaper for easy removal. They are a bigger OS diaper, compared to my rumparooz and BG, they are my only diapers that DS is not on the highest rise already. Every diaper comes with one hemp and one microfiber insert and are a great price. No double gussets. 

    Little Bee Company diapers are a decent pocket as well, but for me not my favorite. DS is a bigger baby and even though these are one size he will definitely not make it to potty training in these. The elastic for some reason is stronger around the top front and back of the diaper than around the legs so it makes for a "puffy" kind of fit, not sure how to explain it. Not as soft either, but they work well.

    Besides BG those are the only pockets I've tried. Interested in trying thirsties as well.

    Blueberry are my fav by far. Followed by SoftBums Omni and then BG 4.0.

    I like the inserts on RaR, but I find the rise to be really short and I don't really care for the "poop gusset thing " it leaves weird marks on G's butt!

    BG 4.0s are my favourites - I get the best fit on DD with them. But I also really like AC pockets/AI2s.


  • I guess I'm kind of san odd ball, I really like my sunbaby pockets. I never had a leak, haven't had a problem stuffing them with any numer of different things, and no problems with leaks.
