Charlie Banana???

Anyone use these?  I am looking for a hybrid cloth diaper... I have heard mixed reviews of gDiapers... But I have not heard anything about Charlie Banana Diapers.

I watched a review on Youtube the other day.  They look EXACTLY like a OS Fuzzibunz but with a disposable insert.  If you're looking for a hybrid, Flips generally get good reviews.  I've never really heard a GREAT review on any disposable insert for a hybrid though.  I've got a few flips and use them with the stay-dry insert or just with a trifolded prefold and we like them.  I've heard the main issue with the disposable insert is that it bunches up and slides around inside the cover.  There are often a good bit of Flips on Spots if you're interested.

I love Charlie Banana! They are really a pocket diaper and very similar to Fuzzibunz if you've used those. The differences are that the pocket opening is in the front, you adjust the elastic on the OS from the front only and you may use a disposible liner in place of the MF insert. I haven't done this, but am skeptical that you would be able to reuse the cover after a diaper change.....the placement of the flap seems that it would get wet, especially with a boy.

Cotton Babies still has seconds Flip covers in their clearance section for $9 each.

I like them, but have never used a disposable insert with them.  I'm actually thinking of selling the two printed ones I have (Boy prints) because I want to buy some more girly diapers. If you are interested, send me an email. rlanning14@yahoo.com
