For my DD I had a stash of 3.0 aplix and elemental snaps and both DH and I always reached for the aplix first. If I were buying a whole stash again I would buy all snaps though. I imagine they stay nicer looking longer with no snags and I just don't like sewing so don't want to have to replace tabs. (Though admittedly it wasn't the worst project.)
I think it's a whole lot easier to put on an aplix closing diaper. But like pp have said, it gets worn looking a whole lot faster.
Right now I have 2 aplix BGs and 2 snap BGs that I've used for less than a month (they're worn at least every other day) and I can already start to see how the aplix won't last.
It makes me sad - I think daycare, dh and other babysitters would have a much easier time w/ an all aplix stash. But when I ordered 6 new dipes yesterday, I got the snap version. I think they'll be easier to sell when we're done that way, too.
Re: BumGenius
Definitely snaps.
For use: aplix
For durability: snaps
