Opinion on a brand

Kibbles09

I'm doing some research for CD-ing before I even think of LO #2. (But it's there. ;] ) I've been looking at the Thirsties brand. What are your opinions on it.

FYI, I know a smidge about CD-ing, I'm just a little, overwhelmed? by all the brands. I've also tried gdiapers with DD, and she grew out really fast.

I really like my thirsties covers for my prefolds. 

Most people on this board recommend trying a few different brands before committing to one particular brand.  I tried 6-7 brands.  I am very happy with my Swaddlebees, BumGenius, Blueberry, Kawaii Pure and Naturals and AMP.

If I had only tried my Happy Heiny's or TotsBots first, I would probably have given up CD.  They didn't fit my skinnyminnie girl.  Both seem to be a little better now that she is getting bigger, but are definitely not my favorites.

Hated my Thirsties AIO! Leaked every time.

I know you asked about Thirsties but I use Best Bottoms and love them.  Never had a leak or blow out.

we used thirsties duos with prefolds during the newborn stage (aplix ones)

after newborn stage i like pockets better and I don't like that thirsties are sized

Love their covers and their aios. I actually got rid of most everything except those and my swaddlebees, and honestly reach for my thirsties aios first. Plus they have AMAZING customer service.

So far I've LOVED:

Fuzzibunz Elite- perfect in every way

Thirsties AIO-(first diaper to fit my skinny thing) Thought now at 5 months we're outgrowing them in absorbency and they're becoming just a liked diaper rather than loved.

Kawaii P&N 

So far I've LIKED:

Happy Heinys

BumGenius Free Time

Grovia AIO

Thirsties Fab Fitted 

Blueberry Mini

Blueberry OS cover

Alvas 

So far I've Disliked:

Prefolds in general

Bumgenius pockets

I liked Thirsties covers for the newborn/infant stage.  Thirsties fitteds were just ok, not very absorbent at all.  I wouldn't use them past newborn stage.  I hated the pockets and AIOs - they leaked constantly on DD.

Ditto bolded parts. Covers are awesome and AIOs are our nighttime diaper. CS in incredible and they are made in the USA!

I have only used their covers but I like them over my GMD prefolds. Kawaii and Rumparooz are my fav pocket diapers.
