We're pampers users, and I get my diapers of amazon, but I'm thinking of trying Luvs. Diaper for diaper they are a better value and I've heard they're very similar. Any reviews? Thanks!

My sister used them for a while with her DS like 5 years ago and hated them, she said they always leaked. I got a pack at one of my showers and I think they are pretty decent. I'm still buying pampers now though.
I really liked them. I'd been with Pampers previously. You can try them with a money back guarantee. I bought a $17 box & mailed in the receipt & got my money back b/c LO outgrew them 3 pounds before he was supposed to in size 2, tho the range on size 3 is a lot longer. Anyway they're soft & have a pleasant baby smell which normally I'm super sensitive too. I'd say buy a box locally & try it for "free". We wound up with Target brand that's why we didn't buy more.
We CD but DD has been in disposables for a rash a couple of times. We tried Luvs first, because I'd been given some at my shower and we hated them - they always leaked and they just felt flimsy. When we use disposables, we use Huggies.

Hate them! They leak if you do not change them all the time. I had one pack left and I sent them to daycare since they have to change them so often. He has only leaked once, but his skin has been a little red. I will be taking pampers Monday to replace the rest.

we cloth diaper too, but we went to fla for 10 days and used LUVS then and I thought they held up pretty well, we tried an eco friendly diaper first and those were HORRIBLE they leaked and gave DD a rash, we then tried the luvs and they held up much better, we also use the luvs at night and they havent leaked yet (DD has reflux and once she actually falls asleep for the night we dont wake her to change her)
So far we love them. Originally we were using Pampers and thought they were the only diapers we would use. Huggies are not for us, we have leaks every time with them. I got Luvs for my shower and so far so good. I think its worth a try, seems like different brands are going to suit different babies, ya know?

I'm a fan of them, but only during the day because I like to give him the "luxury" diapers during the night (pampers sensitive swaddlers). They seem to hold in the poop explosions quite well and fit my boy just like pampers. And you can't beat the price on amazon!
They work great for us! It probably depends on your LO's body type. They fit our chunky girl really well. I've never had a diaper "leak"...it's always a huge blowout up the back if anything escapes, and I don't think any diaper can stand up to that kind of force. We got a pack of Huggies as a gift, we're almost finished with them, and I can't wait to get back to the Luvs! I like the baby powder smell of them--with the Huggies I can just smell the pee and poop really well.

THIS! They seem super thin to me and dont hold as much! Not to mention they are loud for some reason! lol
Hated them!
They leaked and were super thin IMO.
