    These are great diapers. Having 3 kids, we've tried them all. We had been using 7th generation, but found that they leaked and fit small. No problems with leakage here. They do seam slightly bigger padding wise compared to some others, but they definitely trap in the moisture. Others have reported they fit smaller, however, in the size we use (4) I found them to be bigger than the same size of 7th generation we switched from. The only difference you may notice is that they feel somewhat like paper on the outside, not as smooth as other brands, this is due to their construction which allows them to biodegrade. The interior is just as smooth as other brands, and we have had no issues with rashes. Both my wife and I like the fact that they are more environmentally friendly than other diapers, and not just chlorine free. We were willing to pay a slight premium for this, but with Amazon's already good price and the subscription discount, there is no extra cost penalty for buying somet... Read more

    These are great! We've been using them on our 7 month old for several months now. We don't have problems with leaks, but they run on the smaller side. So if your child is on the higher end of the recommended weight chart, I suggest going up a size. I love the fact that these are biodegradable. Most of the "green" diapers in the US are made from recyclable materials that do not decompose. I wish a US company would hurry up and make these! Having them shipped all the way from Sweden cuts out some of the green benefits.

    We were planning on using a one size cloth system but when our baby was born early, she was too small. We started with seventh generation only to have numerous leaks! We switched to pampers until the baby would be big enough for the cloth system. Through much frustration of the cloth still being too big and therefore leaking, I called the company only to be told she has a petite bone structure and we would probably need a different system. Determined not to contribute to the landfills we were going to try seventh generation again. When I got to Babies r Us I found that they weren't carrying seventh gen. any more but were just putting these (nature babycare) on display. I figured it was worth a try and we are very happy so far. I will admit two things: they do run small - my "petite" baby just went into pampers 2's at 13.5 lbs. The nature babycare 2's fit her but more like the pampers 1/2's fit. I can use them but I will buy 3's next. Also, I am nervous to try them at night (e... Read more

    Firstly I want to say that these are expensive. I cannot explain that point away. I can however tell you why I think they are worth it. First they seem to be big for their 'size'. This is possibly because the stuff they are made from is less absorbent than traditional diapers. With that in mind we have never had a leak in these diapers and we have had some really really full diapers. Secondly I feel better about knowing that they are Eco-Friendly, in any way possible. Even if just a little. I always felt bad about disposable diapers and the impact leave behind, but not bad enough to go through the painful process of cloth diapers or pay for a service. This option feels like a happy medium. Finally I like that they are more 'natural' against her skin. Now I know all to well that natural does NOT mean better, especially when it comes to baby skin. Poison Ivy is natural, as is grass, thistles, burs, etc. None of which seem like good baby products. Even paper or cot... Read more

    Really good product for the eco conscious. I have used 7th generation since my 15 mo. old was born, but over the last 6 months became really frustrated that they could no longer keep up with her urine output. I came across these at Target, did some research and bought them. I liked them, but stayed with the 7th gen. because I could do subscribe-and-save, but bought a pack of these to cover the wettest times of day. Now that I can do subscribe-and-save to mitigate the higher cost of the Natures Babycare, I am switching for good. The design is better and they hold a ton of urine. So far sizing is good as well. The three main drawbacks are: 1) the tabs stick only to each other, not to the diaper, so you can't make a very tight bundle with the diaper, say if it is full of poop. 2)they get really huge when they get wet; and 3) I think they smell a little weird when they are wet, but only when you take the diaper off. But, I went from leaks 2x day to no leaks at all so I a... Read more
