prefold vs workhorse absorbency

abby8279

Is a Workhorse going to absorb more, less, or the same as a trifolded prefold?  The ones I would be comparing are WH size XL 26-38 lbs or prefold size L 15-30+ lbs.

I think this question gets asked a lot, and I feel like the general consensus is that prefolds are slightly more absorbent. IMO you get more customizability on where the absorbency is so for my boy, a trifolded prefold gets all the absorbency up front in the middle.

Yep I agree. We have large WHs and large GMD prefolds. I can use just a prefold ON with no leaks. I need a doubler with the WH.
