DH and I have been discussing CDing. He really would rather use the type that adjust in sizes so we don't have to buy multiple sizes and he likes the ones that have the liner built in and attached vs having to stuff it (and stuff, ha ha). What brands do you recommend that have both of these features?

Re: Diaper Brands ?
Miles (6 year old Maine C00n mix), Boots (5 year old Lab mix), Darla (4 year old GSD/Collie mix), Frankie (1.5 year old DSH mix), Peanut (15 months old - 09/11), and Bean (arriving Feb 2013).
There are reviews of the AIOs in the FAQs.
I think you'll find the ones that get the best reviews are BumGenius Elementals. Any AIO diaper takes longer to dry because of the thickness--which is actually part of the reason we decided to go with mostly pockets. Gro-via also has AIOs but I don't think there is a review on the FAQs of them.
I still have an inside baby so I can't speak from experience, but I have read and researched a lot.
i've used grovia since i started cd'ing my daughter a year ago.
i like them because they are an AI2 one size diaper, with a shell and a snappable insert. this means that rather than changing a whole diaper, i can reuse the shell and just snap in a new soaker. and then just use a new shell when needed.
i definitely would recommend a one size diaper brand if you want to save money. it's definitely more economical and will last quite a while. and if you have future children you can reuse on them as well.
there's lots of brands out there, and everyone has a different preference. it takes a lot to research and decide which will fit your lifestyle best. even if you reach that point, you may find that certain diapers fit your lo better than others as well!
