Interested in getting the omni cover, plan to use it with prefolds primarily. Don't plan to use the pocket much. Do you like them? Why? Any drawbacks? I appreciate any feedback!

    I bought the Omni a few weeks ago and I love it!!  I've been able to use it 3 times in the day before having to put it in the wetbag.  Usually twice in the morning, then double up for nap, then into the wet bag after nap.  The stay dry liners have been great and absorb a ton (my youngest is a heavy wetter).  I also love how soft they are.  The only bad thing I've ever really heard is some having trouble adjusting the legs but we haven't had an issue.  I'm actually looking to buy a few more, I love them so much.

    Our DC stash is over 70% Omnis.  I like them quite a bit.  I think I'd love them if I had snaps instead of aplix, but alas snaps seem to be too "hard" for DC to figure out. 

    Biggest complaint with them is just that they are kind of a PITA to adjust the leg settings when you have to.  But then again, at least you can adjust the leg settings.  My other minor complaint is that when DC uses too much of our supposedly CD safe diaper cream we start to get a bit of build up that I have to strip with a bit of blue dawn and minor scrubbing.  Haven't had to do that with my BG.

    We've been using them quite a lot in our rotation for almost 11 months, and they are still holding up well.  The PUL is of similar quality to BG.  Aplix is some of the best out there IMO.  The microfleece lining has worn pretty well, and seems to resist stains.  Overall I'd recommend them to round out a stash.

    I have one Omni and I use my BB inserts in it......just snap them to the back snap. I have used it as a pocket before, but I prefer not stuffing.

    Half of our stash is SoftBums. I lovelovelove them! I have both echo and omni, but find I never use Omni as a pocket anyway. I do use SoftBums inserts and have been super happy with them.
