In love with Kissaluvs & FB! Any downfalls?

Msteach09

Found a local store that carries Kissaluvs (but only size 0 right now) and Fuzzibuns. I bought 2 KL- size 0 in the regular Kissa's, and then a cotton/hemp one (think one size?)...

They were out of FB but will be getting more later. I can not wait! I loved the look and idea of them both..... But now I wanna know- do you love them after trying them on a baby?

I love FBs (perfect fit). WIth that said, I heard their quality has gone down. My sister ordered some FBs over the past few months. The elastic isnt as strong and overall, the diaper feels a lot more flimsy when compared to my FBs. I was at a cloth diaper store and talked to the owner about this. He explained that FB moved their production to a different place. 

My sister is also dealing with leaking issues with her FB. Mine have never leaked.

I loved my KLOs. Just be prepared they're not overly absorbent for too long. Mine made it 6 weeks and it was time to move on. They did work great and fit my newborn well. We never had a leak. To me they were worth it even for a short time.

We have a couple FBs and I kind of hate them. I can never get the elastic (which is what drew me to them) quite right so they leak or slide around. It's annoying. They also seem a bit short on my tall baby. Like a pp they do seem a bit on the flimsy side. I only have 3 and I tend to save them for wash day or the bottom of the diaper bag. They're not bad or anything, just not for me apaprently. I much prefer my BGs. Snap on and be done with it.

I loved my KL0s, but as PPs have said, they aren't super absorbent.  I added a doubler to mine to make them last until around week 8. 

I hate my FB!  Thankfully I only have one.  That one leaks every single time and I haven't had any other leak issues.

Loved the KL0s, they worked well until he got to about 12 pounds and we were ready to do switch to one-size AIOs. (We loved prefolds and fitteds for newborn stage, but now that I'm back to work, we much prefer a one-step system.

I have a FB small that I like pretty well. I tried the FB one-size and like a PP said, I couldn't ever get the fit quite right.

I love the fit of my os FB and feel like they are good quality. The only issue I have with them is that the PUL is really grippy and it makes it hard to get the insert in. If you can manage to find some that were made in China, get those because they don't have that issue.

FB are pretty much 50/50 on people who love and hate them.  Personally, I hated them.  I couldn't get them to stop leaking.
