We actually did the rip and stir method for a couple of months. We did exactly as the directions stated and read them several times, especially after our sewer backed up and we had to call a plumber to get it all snaked out.
Fun times.
As far as fit goes, the legs of the gDiapers are just like the neck of your tee-shirt. I thought I could use one cover all day but truth be told, those babies stretched out faster than my pants on thanksgiving. Guess what that means for the poo? That's right! It's now smeared all over the inside of your kid's pants! Wheee!!! So much fun.
I wanted to like them. We both did. Didn't work. I bought a BG Organic on sale and wondered why the heck we wasted 2 whole months in gDiapers when we could've been using the BGs.
We use g's (among other diapers) and really like them for Natalie and only like them on and off for Dominic. But, I see what you mean about gdiaper rats! Her posts read like a text book or a public relations team.

Lesson learned!
That was almost exactly our experience. We followed the flushies instructions and still had back-up issues. And they were a mess to deal with. Why do that when you can just plop poop or throw a diaper in your washer? And ditto on the leg stretchage. We had really planned for gDiapers to be our primary diapers when S was born but yeah. That totally didn't go as well as we thought it would. I'm honestly really glad we had a few other brands to try out because if we'd had only gDiapers I think we would have been so frustrated we'd have switched to sposies.
Which is totally beside the point but I thought I'd throw that out there. And boooo for rats.
