Cloth Diapering

Fuzzibunz Elite leaks like crazy!

It's one of the diapers in my Jillian's Drawers trial and leaks every single time.  I'm not surprised because it's much less substantial than any of the other ones.  I love how it's a lot less bulky, but the liner is so small and narrow.  Does anyone like these?  Should I just try using a different liner?

    I hated these diapers. Like you, I wanted to like them because they were so trim and cute. But they leaked every. single. time. No matter how I adjusted the elastic. It wasn't a repelling issue either. I finally sold the 4 I had. I am curious to hear if anyone has had luck with them!

  • I have to use 2 inserts in all of my diapers now, including my one FB Elite.  I would try an extra insert or both if it came with a small and large insert (I can't remember if mine did.)

  • I love my fuzzibunz elites. I haven't had a problem with leaks, but my baby is only 3 months.

  • I use a large MF insert bc those tiny minky inserts just don't look like they are going to cut it. I use the minky inserts for doublers instead. My FB don't leak, but they are harder to stuff bc they're so narrow in the crotch. They're not my favorite diaper but I do like them.

    I wanted to like them so badly, but we ended up selling the 2 we had.  They always leaked (LK is a heavy wetter, and even double stuffing them didn't help) and I hated stuffing them.

  • I have both elites and the original FB and I have no more problems with leaks, you have to make sure that the elastic is at the right setting and that your not snapping them too tight, as too tight causes leaks around the legs. 

    I also, swipe my finger around the legs to make sure they sit right.

    I only have FB, about 30 of them.
