gDiapers and more

Mrs.Pnut

I have just started looking into cloth diapers and I had no idea there were so many different kinds!!

What do you ladies use?

Have you had any experience with gDiapers?

Thanks so much for any insight!

We plan on using prefolds and covers and then moving on to AOIs and pockets. I have heard VERY few good things about Gdiapers.

My mom loves our gDiapers.  They are not as fluffy as other diapers, I think.  But she likes them because they have the liner and you can reuse them instead of washing so many.  Not that she does the washing.  I think the biodegradable inserts fit/work better than the cloth inserts, but they are ok. 

I got 6 pair plus 4 packs of the biodegradable inserts on Diapers.com for $89.99, and I got an additional 15% off with a new customer coupon code.  (I have referral codes for $10 off too, if you are a new customer).  They also have the cloth inserts, but they are regular price.  Just the pants are $59.99.

I'm all about variety...so I have a mixture of pretty much everything.  Fitteds with covers, pockets, all in ones/all in twos.  I'd lurk a lot and look back through the posts...there are tons of CD posts everyday with lots of helpful info.  Also check out the EFF blog....it's a good place to start.

As for gDiapers, they aren't well liked around here.  I've never used them so I have no personal advice to add.

Generally, I haven't heard many positives about G-diapers but I liked the idea of them. I am using FLIPS and GroBaby/GroVIa, both systems are similar to G-diapers in that they have a reusable cover, inserts/soakers, and a disposable option.  Like G-diapers, they are considered a Hybrid option or an AI2.  SO far, I would say that GroVia/GroBaby are a bit easier but the FLIPS aren't hard. I prefer the GroBaby covers I think, they are a bit more substantial. My DH can do the GroBaby ones but is a little afraid of the FLIPS.   The GroBaby Soakers/inserts take much longer to dry than the FLIPS, which could be a problem if your stash was limited. 

I don't have FLIP disposable options but do have the GroBaby ones and they are  a nice option.

We use gdiapers with gcloth exclusively (haven't tried the disposable inserts yet) and we love them.  We've never had a leak and I love that they are trim and come in sizes.
