I am looking to add some extra liners to my stash. I've heard good things about both Hemp Babies and Babykicks hemparoo Joey Bunz, don't know which is better. Any thoughts? TIA
I have both. I prefer the Joey Bunz premium inserts over the Hemp Babies. It really depends on what you want them for.
If you just want a doubler, than the Hemp Babies are fine. We add them to our ON fitted diaper. If you want something that can stand alone during the day, the the Joey Bunz are the way to go. Both have held of really well to repeated use and washing.
Why not try one of each?

bugandbibs, can I ask why you think Joey Bunz are better on their own? I am still a cloth newbie so I'm still figuring everything out. Just wondering what it is about the JB that makes them stand alone during the day and what makes the HB not good for that. Thanks!
We have both as well and I agree with the PP. Hemp Babies are just one strip of material whereas the joey bunz premium is 2 peices sewn together on one side. I also use the hemp babies as a doubler since its fairly trim and it absorbs well but would not be enough on its own. The Joey bunz is fantastic however. I have actually ditched all of my microfiber inserts and switched over to all joey bunz prem. They are sized and each size corresponds perfectly with the rise settings on my OS BG 4.0's. I use them overnight alone and during the day and we have had no leaks. They absorb a ton!

This is what I would have said.
