VALUE FOR MONEY
I have used Bumgenius OSFM nappies on my daughter since she was 5 months old, she is now 26 months. I have found them to be a great fit and really absorbent! We are expecting another baby soon and can’t wait to use them on her too. These nappies really are great value for money!
I love the Bumgenius one size nappy. At first I was apprehensive about the price but have found them to be a great investment. It is the one nappy I absolutely trust to get my baby through the night.
Despite the high cost (and ridiculous name), the Bumgenius are by far the best of the cloth nappies I have tried. They do keep baby dry pretty well and dry themselves more quickly after washing than the other brands that I have. They are quick and easy to use and have retained their new look despite much hardcore washing. Very much recommend these nappies, hope they can bring the price right down soon.
We love our Bumgenius one size pocket nappies. They are well worth the investment. They make nappy changes as simple as a disposable caring for them is easy once you get in the swing of it and they dry super fast on the clothes line unlike many other modern cloth nappies. They are also great for night times - our little one is never wet through by the morning when she wears her Bumgenius with the thicker night time insert. They are also great when you are out-and-about because they don't take up too much room in the nappy bag and you can fold the dirty ones down quite small and just pop them in a wet bag until you get home.
I love that it fits from new born to toilet training, and often use as a swimmer nappy by removing the inner lining. It washes really well in the wash and dries relatively quickly. Even though they are a bit expensive at first, I definitely have gotten my money back in quality. Best of all, in six months we have not yet had any blow outs! Amber, Tweed Heads
I love the cost effectiveness of Bumgenius...the makers are genius. They are simple to use, look good and I feel like I am helping the environment. I am always recommending them to everyone. Bree, Port Macquarie
I love the Bumgenius Nappies that can be made bigger as your baby grows, cost effective as only have to buy one lot, even as baby gets bigger. And they still fit perfectly and no leakage. The laundering of the nappies is easy, as they can go straight in the machine for prewash, normal wash and rinse. No soaking as in the old days. The bright colours are cute on the little bottoms too!
I purchased the Bumgenius organic OSFA AIO - and I love them. They were on the expensive side but they are such a simple to use nappy. We have never had any leakage issues and bubs has a lovely soft bum with no sign of a rash. Can take a while to dry, but small price to pay for an excellent nappy. Natalie, Neutral Bay
The best brand available for cloth fitted nappies is by far 'Bumgenius' one size fits all. Although a little over priced, I just have to pay it if I want the quality.
DURABILITY
Bumgenius are GREAT, keep going and going.
Bumgenius nappies have been good value for money - they are well made, come in a great range of colours and retain their good shape/fit no matter what size they are adjusted to.
Many of my friends use modern cloth nappies, and some have had problems with the quality of their nappies, such as the PUL coming away after some use. The Bumgenius nappies I bought from Nurture Nappies however have proven to be of fabulous quality. They're cost-effective too, as I have been able to use the one size from birth.
I purchased the Bumgenius pocket nappies and have been impressed by their quality. They are easy to use, quick to dry and were great when we started using them on our 18 month old son. I'm looking forward to trying them out on our new baby!
I love my Bumgenius nappies - worth the initial investment, and have survived well on my rambunctious 15 month old from the age of 12 weeks being worn every day!
The Bumgenius pocket nappies are fantastic. Not only do they look great but they are easy to use, easy to wash, have high absorbency and keep baby's bottom dry. I am now using my Bumgenius nappies for my second child and they are still as good as when I first bought them.
I love the Bumgenius 3-0 nappies for my bub. Five months on they look as good as new, are still highly absorptive and very comfortable. Clare, Cairns
I have found the Bumgenius nappies to be wonderful. We have used them since from the time our little boy was a couple of months old until present day (15mths) and they are still going strong! It's great not to have to change to a new set of nappies as they grow with him due to their ability to be manually adjusted! Well done. Melody, Brisbane
AN EXCELLENT SOLUTION IN HOT WEATHER AND HUMIDITY
We live in Asia and bought the Bumgenius nappies with micro fibre inserts. We find them excellent! They are quick to dry in the wet season, comfortable for our baby in the heat and best of all, they look great! Everyone comments on how the colours always seem to match her outfit. Nina's never had nappy rash. Our only comment is that as the nappies and Nina got older (6 months and 1.5 months respectively) they were not suitable for overnight as she was always wet in the night. We now use 1 disposable at night and are happy with the compromise.
The Bumgenius nappies I purchased have been wonderful they are super absorbent easy to put on and care for. We live in East Timor with a hot tropical climate and my baby boy has never had nappy rash.
GREAT FOR DADS AND GRANDPARENTS
I have bought Bumgenius nappies and my daughter and I just love them - they are funky, fun and dad friendly!
Bumgenius 3.0. I love these nappies. Even my husband is able to use these without complaining, unlike the pre-folds! What I really like is that, unlike the Bumgenius Organic nappy, the inserts and cover will dry quickly without the use of an electric clothes dryer, even on the odd day when the weather is too bad to dry outside. The stay dry layer on the inside of the nappy is great too as my son is not sitting with wet cloth next to his skin.
TRAVELLING WITH CLOTH NAPPIES Bumgenius range travelled with my family from Sydney, Singapore, Heathrow for a family holiday, then to Paris, Indonesia & home, 2 years ago. We had 24 nappies & 2 wet bags, one for everyday use & another until they were washed. This product can travel.
IDEAL FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
Absolutely love the Bumgenius nappies. I have a 15 year old and I used terry towelling nappies with her resulting in lots of nappy rash. However, I find the Bumgenius brilliant and keeps my 10 month old very dry and she has only had a few cases of minor nappy rash. This is great for a child with sensitive skin and eczma. Leanne, Denistone
I have used the Bumgenius all in one cloth nappies on my son from birth. As he suffers from eczma I find that they keep him a lot drier for a lot longer than disposable nappies. The initial outlay is expensive but I have found that they wash up well and dry quickly plus they are good quality. The velcro tabs are extremely easy and quick to use especially when your little one wriggles a lot! Melissa, Newcastle
A friend of mine with a baby 18 months older than mine trialled many brands and types of re-usable nappies, and she recommended Bumgenius s as the best overall. Therefore I took her advice and went straight to Nurture Nappies to buy Bumgenius. I am stoked over the success I have with these nappies. My baby is a red head with sensitive skin, and 2 hours in a disposable nappy whilst flying leaves her bottom red and rashy for many hours. Bumgenius nappies don’t do this to her. I leave her night nappy on for up to 12 hours, and she never gets a rash from it. I have recommended Bumgenius nappies to many friends and colleagues now. Also, when a friend has a baby, my baby gift to her is to give her a new Bumgenius nappy and to email her the information letter re laundering, etc, plus the Nurture Nappies website address so they can purchase further nappies if desired. Buying Bumgenius nappies has been one of the best decisions I have made for baby Sofia.
USING AS A NIGHT NAPPY
Bumgenius pocket nappies are the best overnight nappies I have tried. (And I have tried a lot.) They hold a lot of moisture and draw it away from the baby's bottom.
The Bumgenius osfa pocket nappy is fantastic. Its become my fave night nappy for both my toddler and six month old. My youngest may be a heavy wetter but the fantastic fit of the Bumgenius means NO LEAKS. I love these nappies and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them!
Have the Bumgenius nappies they have been great my son is 18 months now have supplemented with hemp inserts at night. The quality is very good I would have no hesitation in recommending this product they wash well and dry well on the line at times I have to put them in the dryer as we are Victorian based but they have held up very well and I will use them for my next child.
LEAKPROOF AND RELIABLE PERFORMANCE
These are fantastic, my son has a tendency to do projectile poos!!, and this nappy holds them in better than anything else I have tried, including disposables! Would recommend them to anyone, in fact I do!!!
Bumgenius nappies are fantastic, they fit really well, dry extremely fast and have had no problems with leaks. Monique, Brisbane
I purchased the Bumgenius 3.0 nappies for my baby after receiving one in a trial pack. I have found them to be excellent and extremely easy to use. My husband loves them too. The velcro was a real drawcard for him in lieu of button-fastening nappies that take longer and are more difficult to put on a squirming baby. The inserts dry much quicker than other nappies and the hemp boosters are great for overnight use. I was shocked how easily they wash too, with staining not being a problem. Overall, a brilliant, waterproof nappy that adjusts to the size of your baby, well worth the money for the ease of use and benefit to the environment.
Great nappy, very absorbent, no leakage issues. Easy to use velcro with wash-back tabs, great fit. Robyn, Kununurra
After much research of the huge range of cloth nappies out there I decided to try the Bumgenius and haven't looked back. It doesn't leak, is very easy to use and washes really well. They are one size so will be used on our next family member who arrives in November. I love the suede cloth which keeps the moisture away from the wearer's bottom. No nappy rash!
I purchased some Bumgenius 3.0 MCN's and have found them to be fantastic. My baby has very sensitive skin and gets nappy rash constantly in disposables. In his Bumgenius and using cloth wipes as well he never has this problem. They are easy to use and we have no issues with blowouts the way we did with disposables. It feels good not to be throwing away a bag full of used nappies every day now that we have switched, plus the money we are saving not buying disposables anymore means they will soon have paid for themselves.
We love our Bumgenius 3.0 nappies. We started off with one, then bought 24 more once we realised how good they were! We've had them 8 months now and they're still looking good. They are very absorbent, and contain leaks really well - much better than disposables, in fact! They are very easy to put on, are not too bulky, and are so easy to wash! They dry pretty quickly, too. We had to stop using them overnight a couple of months ago because my son was wetting through them once he started sleeping longer periods, but they've been fabulous daytime nappies. We've recommended them to quite a few friends who've all been very happy with them too.
I recently bought some Bumgenius. They were great, I don't know why I have been using other cloth nappies for so long. They are far better in terms of absorbency and drying time than other nappies. They have much better performance than any nappy I have tried, cloth or disposable.
I bought 12 and have found them brilliant. I particularly like that they are waterproof yet breathable and will grow with our child. For what they cost they are worth every cent. I initially found the recommended washing cycles a bit cumbersome, but after spending some time programming the washing machine to add the 3 cycles together, it has been a breeze. I now wish I had bought 24 to make the most of the cycles. When our little girl was newborn (3kg) the nappy seemed almost as big as her. Looked a little like a roast chicken in them actually. But now 6 months old and just about to crawl, she finds them quite manoeuvrable and they for the most part don't leak at the legs. The array of colours make washing day feel like a fiesta! The greens are gorgeous. Highly recommend. Jane, Sunnybank Hills
The Bumgenius nappies are fantastic. They are as easy to use as disposables and washing & folding etc only takes a few minutes in front of the TV at night. They are super quick to dry, I have rarely had a problem with leaking, they look great and they are so much better for the environment. I feel guilty when I do use disposables now. Rachael, Newcastle
Our daughter will be two in September 2009 and has worn only Bumgenius Nappies since she was 6wks old. (she would have been in them earlier but she didn't fit into them) We have never had any dramas with the nappies, and almost no nappy rash at all. It was thanks to advice we received at the Nurture Nappies stand that convinced us to go for reusable nappies as opposed to disposable and it is a decision we have never regretted. Thankyou very much.
I bought some Bumgenius nappies to use in conjunction with the traditional cloth nappies. I liked the idea of the disposable nappy fit and ease of use in a washable and therefore reusable form. We tend to use them as 'overnight' nappies and 'travel' nappies, (as it was out of budget to buy more then 5 to start with, and we later added another half dozen to our collection). The adjustable sizing is a wonderfully practical additive to the general idea - one less thing to buy in different sizes as they grow. I think the other upside as my baby moves towards toilet-trainable age will be that he will be able to feel when he is wet (not saturated as with a terry-towelling nappy, but damp) and will learn faster to use the toilet! I have been using these nappies at night and when out-and-about for 8 months now and would recommended them to anyone who asks. Renee, Landsborough
The Bumgenius OSFA are a great OSFA pocket nappy. The convenience of the pocket acting like a disposable is great, and it only takes seconds to snap down to the right size setting and slide in the insert!
Bumgenius nappies have been a godsend in our household. They are easy to use and care for, not to mention economical. They look great and are husband and grandmother friendly!
We started using the Bumgenius nappies when our baby was born. We had previously decided to use reusable nappies and wanted a product that was easy to use, good quality, sized to last from birth to toilet training and looked good. The Bumgenius nappies are still looking new after 7 months constant use and I have every confidence that they will see the distance. We have had very few nappy disasters (explosions and leaking) compared with friends babies using disposables. A number of friends and family are now starting to look at using reusable nappies particularly the Bumgenius range because of the success we have had. While it does take a few extra minutes each day to wash and 'fold' the nappies it is nothing compared to the landfill waste we would have created with disposable nappies. We are extremely happy with our purchase and will continue to advocate for reusable nappies as a small part we can play in securing a better future for our children.
I purchased the Bumgenius nappies about a year ago and I absolutely love them. I bought the full time use pack. They are easy to use, wash and take with me where ever I go. I have recommended them to 6 friends and they have all purchased them. One of the best baby products I have purchased. Not only are they better for his bottom but better for the environment too.
I love my Bumgenius One Size Pocket. It is the best all in one I have tried (and I have tried several). I love the fact that it can be resized as my daughter grows. I find the fit around her legs and tummy excellent and I would highly recommend this product to new users. Tanya, Sydney
I bought my first Bumgenius 3.0 nappies 9 months ago and haven't looked back. I initially thought I'd be a part time user only use them at home, but I love my son wearing them out and even took them on holidays (I knew we had access to a washing machine.) I nearly always line dry the nappies. They rarely leak (only when we leave them on too long.) I've been very thrilled with them, especially now the poos stay in the nappy liner!
I am a great fan of the Bumgenius OSFA pocket nappy because of the way it combines so many features. The stay dry inner is superb, the ability to adjust absorbency is a plus and the ease of use and care is excellent. Another bonus is the one-size feature that means that these nappies will see my child right through until toilet training. I don't think I could have selected a better nappy!
I'm a Bumgenius convert. I have a stash of the Bumgenius 3.0 pocket nappies, and can't find fault with them. Great colour range, easy to wash, easy to stuff, easy to put on bub, and no leaks. I trialled a range of nappies before deciding that Bumgenius was the one. Best baby investment I've made!
My favourite nappies are the Bumgenius 3.0 one-size nappies that I bought from Nurture Nappies. They are cute, compact, no leaks, nice colours, dry fast and are very easy to use. They aren't cheap, as nappies go, but are worth every cent and will pay for themselves compared to disposables in just a few months. Altogether an excellent buy. Helen, Melbourne
We have been so pleased with our Bumgenius pocket nappies. They are extremely absorbent, very rarely leaking. The way they adjust as our son grows is great. They are very easy to maintain and look after also. The variety of colours they come in always look very cute. Nicky, Gladstone
I have juggled work, kids & family life with the Bumgenius range & found them a most impressive product. Easy to keep clean. No bleaching or soaking. Occasional warm water machine wash & best of all fast drying. Minimal laundry powder. I was worried about managing baby poo, but my hubby & I both found the insert removal useful. At times we would hold the nappy & let a flushing toilet discard the contents. If a little more elbow grease was required we would rinse in the shower as we never converted our toilet hose. Our baby is now toilet training & the product is not tired. I have been happy to recommend the product experience & can genuinely support this product as a great all round alternative to disposables.
One of the first nappy purchases I made was Bumgenius Pockets. They were fantastic for what I needed at the time, they fitted well, worked well, washed and dry easily and quickly, no stains, great price and they stayed looking like new for ages.
I purchased the Bumgenius one size and the all-in-ones and they are fabulous. They are so easy to wash and fold (I just fold them at night while watching TV and only need to was 2-3 times a week). Once you figure out how to use them I find that they leak less than a disposable (it helps if you pick bub up once it's on and pull the nappy up at the back and make sure you are using the correct size) The all-in-ones are less work but the one size last longer but they both work the same. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to save $ and help the environment.Tara, Melton
Bumgenius nappies are great! They are fairly easy put on, wash and dry. The velcro works well, though can be a draw back once your child discovers them, but thankfully it was just a phase with my little one. If used overnight, you definitely need extra absorbency than from the one insert provided. Overall a good nappy.
As a first time mum I don't think I really understood nappies until bub came along and I tried out a few different ones with the Nurture Nappies trial package. It was definitely good to suss out what worked and didn't with my baby. My bub (4 months) is prone to nappy rash and squawks when she has to sit in a wet nappy (who wouldn't?) I find that both Bumgenius and Green Kids brands are the best at keeping her comfortable, dry and most importantly sleeping well! I also love the range of colours! I would definitely recommend these two brands of pocket nappies to any parents wanting to go cloth. Yee, Sydney
When asked if I was going to use cloth or disposable nappies I straight away said disposable. When you think of cloth nappies you think of washing, soaking, drying time & smelly nappy buckets. My sister in law was already using a variety of cloth nappies & had done a lot of research in regards to which ones suited her 3 month old daughter the best as far as comfort, size range, absorbency & aesthetics. When I went to visit my niece I loved the Bumgenius nappies straight away. They looked good, had a choice of absorbency liner and option for a baby boy or girl which is excellent when the next baby comes along, had a range of pastel colours to choose from & were going to work out cost effective in the long run. I ordered my fist 6 pack of Bumgenius nappies before my baby was born in gender neutral colours. I tried them on my daughter for 2 months and loved them so much I ordered another bulk pack in the new colour range. I show them off to my new mum friends. I love them!
I started using Bumgenius nappies two years ago after a friend recommended them to me. I absolutely loved them and found them perfect for my needs. They were fantastic for going out and about and also to use at home. I liked them for overnight as well when my son was younger (when he got older they didn't hold his urine as well). I like how the lining wicks the moisture away from my child's skin but the outer layer is waterproof. They last as long a disposable and are easy to clean.
I have used the Bumgenius pocket nappies for the last 20 months with my daughter. Of all the many types of cloth nappies I have used these are by far the best. They keep baby the driest and leak less than any other brand. They also dry incredibly quickly on the washing line - and we live in the very cold and wet Blue Mountains, so this is quite some recommendation.
Bumgenius nappies are fantastic. I found disposable nappies would leak at night. Bumgenius solved the problem - no more leaks at night. I also love that they are environmentally friendly. My baby is only 10 months old and already we have used our Bumgenius nappies over 300 times. That is 300 less nappies as land fill. Very happy. Cath, Mittagong
I research a huge range of cloth nappies and I purchased Bumgenius nappies and after using them for the last year I still think they are the greatest. Thanks Nurture Nappies for making the job easier for me.
The Bumgenius nappy is fantastic; we have no leaks, it washes easily and dries fairly quickly and the colours are really cute. It is our favourite nappy in the ever growing stash! I recommend it to all new mums thinking about trialling modern cloth nappies.
Bumgenius nappies are fantastic - environmentally friendly, growing in size with your newborn. Everything the environmentally conscious new family would want for their precious arrival. Shana, Seaford Rise
We found the Bumgenius pocket nappy to be far superior to any other we tried - and we had quite a range to compare to. In the end the money we spent on various prefolds, fitted (including cotton, hemp and bamboo styles) and pocket nappies would have been better spent on just Bumgenius pocket ones despite them being more expensive initially, as they are much more absorbent, fit better, leak less, and are one size. When she was very small, our baby would cry until we changed her as soon as she did even a tiny wee in any other brand of nappy - which seemed to be every 20 minutes in the early weeks! She also seemed to soak through the other brands within an hour or two, so they were hopeless overnight. She is a chubby baby, grew out of any sized nappies very fast, so we appreciated the clever adjustable sizing system in Bumgenius. Even disposable nappies don't fit as well around her thighs and leak up the back!
Bumgenius 3.0 one size pocket nappy. This is my absolute favourite nappy! It is ever reliable, doesn't leak, has a nice trim fit and dries quickly. I use them overnight on my very heavy wetting little boy, teamed up with an additional sugar peas booster, which was recommended by the Nurture Nappies team when another product was unavailable. It is excellent, superabsorbent and just doesn't leak from the legs or around the waist like many of the others I have tried. Also very easy to replace the elastic in these as they're a pocket nappy. I have yet to find a nappy where the elastic lasts longer than about 8 months. Michelle, Perth
I purchased the Bumgenius 3.0 Nappies. Everyone I knew including my partner, friends and relatives were sceptical of using cloth nappies instead of disposables. I'm now 7 months in and I haven't looked back. They have been excellent. The best baby product I have bought by a long shot. No leaking, fits nicely, easy to wash & dry, and no complicated combinations of outers, inners, etc. Everything comes in the box for NB - toddler Kathryn, West Melbourne
I purchased the Bumgenius one size nappy 18 months ago for my second child. I only wish I had known about them for my firstborn. They are so easy to use and care for and the best thing is the amount of money I save. I am about to purchase some more because I am due to have my 3rd child in a couple of months so will have two in nappies. Even my husband can use them. By following the care instructions none of my nappies have stains. They still look like brand new. What a great product and Nurture Nappies provides a great service if you have any questions etc. Alex, Mackay
I have used the Bumgenius 2.0 pocket nappies since my daughter was several weeks old. I have found them to be very easy to use. I started with 6 nappies and then promptly got a further 6 nappies. Once I was sure that they were easy to use I expanded my collection to 18 and then 24. I have compared prices and inclusions of other nappies, and have found these to be the best. I have not found the washing processes more onerous. I have occasionally used disposable nappies and find the cloth nappies to be just as easy Amanda, Perth
I found these nappies to be absolutely amazing both my baby and my toddler wear these nappies. They fit snugly, don’t leak and wash up beautifully. Money well spent.
We have used Bumgenius Pocket nappies since our baby boy was 6 weeks old & have found them to be fantastic. They are attractive, easy to use & we've never had any accidents while using them - unlike the times we've used disposable nappies. I get to feel good by doing my little bit to help the environment & my partner is happy about the money we are saving by not buying disposable nappies.
I purchased 18 Bumgenius nappies and have used them with my daughter from 12 weeks old. I have had very little to no problems with leakage and they are easy to care for.Haidee, New Zealand
I am new to cloth nappies and was looking for a cost effective and easy alternative to disposables. I found that the Bumgenius range is a very easy to use pre-fitted nappy which makes it Dad and Nanna proof. They fit my son well and as they are adjustable we have used them since he was 5 weeks old. He is now 9 months old and looks adorable crawling around in the range of colours that we have. We also really appreciate that with modern cloth nappies your laundry doesn't get that ‘Nappy smell’ as we dry pail them. Being a working Mum and not a domestic goddess the nappies I brought from Nurture Nappies provide an environmentally friendly and easy alternative to disposable. Rebecca, Wattle Grove
I am a huge fan of Bumgenius OSFM nappies. They stay beautiful wash after wash, have a great fit, are easy to use (including dads, grandparents and babysitters) and because they are OSFM they last a long time.
Definitely a favourite for many reasons: quick to dry, one size so less cost, good fit and moulds to child, trim and looks cute. Excellent product I would recommend to anyone.
Bumgenius Pocket nappies are by far the best nappy product I have used to date. I have sampled other brands, but always return to the trusty Bumgenius. I find them to be superabsorbent and reliable.
We have used Nurture Nappies quite a bit and have purchased many different products. We love our wet bag which comes in handy when out and about, and we adore our Bumgenius nappies too so easy to use and dad friendly :) Amber
The Bumgenius nappies I have purchased are fantastic! They are the best nappies I have found for skinny legged, very active babies. I would recommend them to anyone for ease of use, washing and drying. Georgia, Sydney
I tried 3 different brands of one size pocket nappies before making my final purchase, Bumgenius were the best all round nappy for fit and for non-leakage - I can keep my baby in one overnight (with the mini-booster) for 12 hours without an issue. Tracy, Richmond
I love the OSFA aspect, the micro fibre boosters work well for us, the PUL is nice and soft, I do wish they came with snaps closure rather than velcro as I find velcro rubs on my baby's stomach. Overall a success with us!
I found Bumgenius to be a perfect nappy for us. They fitted my daughter well, didn't leak and I loved that they dried quickly after washing, a must in a Tassie winter! Kel, Hobart
I have been using 'Bumgenius' nappies full time now for three months. They are fantastic and I can't fault them. I am so glad we decided to use cloth nappies. The 'Bumgenius' nappy is very easy to use, clean, and looks gorgeous on! Gina, Fairfield
Bumgenius nappies are fantastic. We have been using them for our daughter for over a year now and they are brilliant. I am disappointed that I did not find them for our first child. They are easy to wash, dry and assemble and great that there are three sizes in one nappy. Thank you Nurture Nappies.
I purchased twenty four Bumgenius nappies for my son from Nurture Nappies after much online research. The initial cost seemed like a huge outlay and I was worried that I would find cloth nappies a burden and would want to use disposables as an easier option but ten months on I wouldn't use anything else. Bumgenius truly are the “Rolls Royce” of reusables, the 3 snap fasteners for different sizes are excellent and they look so smart in this hot climate where for a few months of the year a nappy and singlet are the best option for my baby. The washing instructions are simple and I have never felt like it's a huge extra chore to keep a rotation going of washing and drying them. With the diaper doubler my son doesn’t need to be changed during the night and they don’t leak. A great purchase all round.
I can't say enough good things about the Bumgenius 3.0 nappies! They fit my daughter perfectly, and we have never had a leak or explosion and she has been wearing them for 9 months. LOVE the colours and the material is so soft next to a little bum! I'm secretly hoping for a little boy next time round so I can have a stash of blues and greens!
Melissa, Bathurst
I have been using Bumgenius One-Size pocket nappies with my daughter for over 10 mths & have been nothing short of delighted. They have worn beautifully & are still in excellent condition (& most importantly, still working as well as the day I received them). They fit my daughter perfectly then & still do now with the adjustable snaps & liner. I really like how the nappy comes with 2 liners for flexibility & the option to use the smaller one as a booster when required, when it is no longer required for a newborn. The absorbency has been excellent & the material closest to the skin stays so dry. I was actually a little sad about the thought of abandoning the nappies during toilet-training, because my daughter would never be able to feel wet, however have been excited when I realised I could put the newborn liner on top of the pocket closest to the skin & can use them for a bit longer. Bumgenius nappies have really been such a flexible & very worthwhile investment.
I bought 24 Bumgenius nappies for my 3rd child. 17 months on I am still using them and they are wonderful. Easy to use, one size fits all and comfortable for my boy. I have lots of different nappies and these are the ones I reach for first! The only thing against them is the aplix closure, if they were snaps they would be perfect.
The Bumgenius pocket nappies - one size fit all ages - are brilliant! They are just as good as disposables in fit and absorbency and they are super easy to wash and maintain. Even the biggest messiest poo is incredibly easy to clean! We love the colours and when worn without pants the baby still looks dressed. I couldn't believe how great they are compared to disposables and I can't recommend them enough. Pauleen, Brinsmead
I have purchased & used the Bumgenius one size fits all nappies for my now 10 month old son. I have found the product easy to use & care for. My son has never suffered from nappy rash whilst using these nappies. I experienced some minor leaking issues in the early days until I got the fit right. My nappies did start to smell after about 6 months, the staff were more than happy to help me with how to 'strip' them to remove this & they now only occasionally build up a slight odour which the strip washing gets rid of. I love the product, they have saved me a fortune in disposables, are great for the environment & most importantly great for bub!
I have purchased several of the one-size Bumgenius nappies and find them fantastic. They are very absorbent, keep my baby dry due to their micro fibre lining and passed the all important explosion test!! (Those with a newborn will know what I mean). They are well priced and very versatile being able to be used from newborn to toddler, I will have to get some more as my second bub is soon to arrive and my first born is still wearing hers. I recommend them to all my friends.
Almost 2 years ago I bought Bumgenius nappies for my daughter. The range of colours are great and the practicality of them washing easily & being able to reuse them and save on the environment & money were main reasons we bought them. Being able to adjust the sizes on a nappy from newborn to toilet training was wonderful too. Saving on space and storage. I am about to have my second baby next week and have no worries in using them again. My husband & I are extremely happy with Bumgenius products and love that we are close to such a great company here in Far North Qld. Caroline, Goldsborough Valley
After reading the info available on the website I chose the one size Bumgenius nappy. All the information given was accurate, I bought 24 and I love them. I've recommended Bumgenius to a friend who went on to buy 18. We are very happy with our choice, Thanks Nurture Nappies.
bumGenius All In One nappies
I bought Bumgenius All-In-One sized nappies and they are fantastic I use them as my going out nappies and they are perfect as they are slim and you can fit quite a few in the nappy bag.
When our baby was little the all-in-one Bumgenius nappies were our faves - my husband grabbed these nappies off the pile EVERY nappy change that he did - the small was such a great fit on a teeny tiny newborn baby Tracey, Brisbane
The Bumgenius AIO's are super trim, super cute and so well made. They came with great care instructions that make them so easy to look after! Love them!
I bought the Bumgenius All in One size XS - they are so cute on my little man! If you want a 'going out' nappy that is not as bulky as OSFM nappies or prefolds with a cover this nappy is great. The little ones don't look ridiculous in this nappy!! You can put cute little onesies over it and they just look they are wearing a trim little nappy underneath. My boy is 10 weeks old and 6kg and has just grown out of them now, so they lasted a while longer than I thought. Nicole, Lawson
I purchased the trial set of Bumgenius nappies, as I was unsure how they would go and how I would manage with cloth nappies. I was pleasantly surprised. They are easy to use, cleaning and washing is a breeze and even my husband can put them on bub...no pins required!! The quality and ease of use of the 'All in Ones' is fantastic. My bub loves them and so do I!!
bumGenius organic one size nappy (please click here to see further product details)
I bought the organic Bumgenius AIOs. They are brilliant Well worth the money. Absorbent and don’t leak 99% of the time. Great value for money. Peta, Cannon Hill
The easiest, trimmest, best nappy I've ever used. Love it!
I recently bought a Bumgenius organic one-size nappy, and it's LURRVELY. I love that it's organic, of course, but it's also great that it's one-size because I have two children in nappies and it means I don't have to pick and choose different-sized nappies for them.
Baby Beehinds
Baby Beehinds bamboo nappies are an amazing night time choice - they are the most absorbent nappy I have tried! I am very happy with them after 1 year of use and have just purchased more to accommodate 2 children in cloth.
Initially I thought I would prefer the convenience of an AIO system when I started shopping around. But as I looked further and thought through what was really going to be important about my stash. I decided to go with the two part system that is Baby Beehinds Fitteds. I am in love with their bamboo fitteds... so soft and so ridiculously easy to use. The whole nappy is absorbent which is important, as I found, when you have a "heavy wetter". I initially I thought that velcro would be the easiest fastener too... but since having a baby in the fitteds I love the "pop" of the press studs. Kinda like bubble wrap!! Plus, velcro seems to "wake" my baby more when I'm changing her at the dreamfeed... so I prefer the press studs. They do take a bit longer to dry which is why I've also got some hemp fitteds. I love that two kinds of inserts/boosters are included too... which means adjusting the absorbency is sooo easy. A serious fan of this nappy!!!
Baby Beehinds are great nappies. I especially love the bamboo nappies which stay really soft when washed and the wool covers which keep baby nice and dry.
These nappies are so soft and so absorbent, they have been an absolute blessing when my little one has had nappy rash. They are so easy to use, even my husband can manage!
My favourite MCN's are the baby beehind bamboo nappies. They are highly absorbent, a great product in terms of environmental impact and are Australian. They are incredibly reliable - more so than disposables as other mums in my mothers group have had plenty of poo leaks whereas we never have. The only downside was that they were too big as a newborn (3.75kg), didn't fit well until about 8 weeks (but that gave me the excuse to buy some fitted ones!” Jessica, Horsham
I thoroughly recommend using the "new" cloth nappies of Baby Beehinds for ease of use, washing drying and out-&-about convenience. I thought at first they might be a bit more difficult than my friends using disposals but quite the opposite. They also eliminated my son’s nappy-rash from the old style nappies. He's one happy kid. Love the bright coloured covers as well!
I have been using cloth nappies for over a year now and my personal favourite is the Baby Beehind brand. My two boys have sensitive skin and are prone to developing a nappy rash in warmer weather; however, I have never experienced this when using the Beehind bamboo cloth nappy. I'm having my third baby in December and will need to stock up before the baby arrives. I will definitely be purchasing the Baby Beehind One Size Bamboo Fitted cloth nappy in the near future. I also love the fab range of colours available too!! Jacqui, Brisbane
I have used baby bee-hinds for my two children and have found that they are very absorbent, fit from birth up till 2 1/2 years and are easy to use. I like that the natural fibre is gentle on my girls skin, especially if they have a bit of nappy rash. I have been very happy with them. Cara, North Lake
I love them. I've been using them for my toddler and now I'm using them for my newborn and I'm surprised how well they fit. I love getting long usage from my fitted nappies and these are the best I've tried.
I bought some PUL Baby Beehinds nappy covers and have found them to be great. They don't leak like a lot of other covers, they are easy to wash and can be worn for a couple of days before needing to be washed.
I love the Baby Beehind PUL covers, they are a great price and work extremely well with fitted nappies or terry squares. They also hold up well in the wash, dry fast and last a long time! Kristie, Bundaberg
I bought a Baby BeeHind nappy cover on spec. to use with my flat nappies. It fits really well - they feel dense and thick - a good quality woven woollen fabric, with an extra panel down the middle. It hasn't leaked, even with a soggy-3-hour-sleep nappy inside. The velcro is very fine and hasn't deteriorated at all, picked up any fluff or lost any stick. It is super adjustable around the middle. I much prefer to use this than PVC to wrap around my little boy!
Baby Beehinds covers. I am very happy with my covers, I have never had a leak with them and they are breathable and look very nice. The elastic around the legs are a lot softer on my baby's leg than other covers. Trude, Barwon Heads
I have tried a few PUL and wool nappy covers. Of these, my favourite are the Baby Beehinds ones: PUL for the day, wool for night. They fit well, the elastic is soft and seems comfortable, and they wash well. When using them with nappies other than Baby Behinds, it's worth using a size down for a slim fit.
I bought some Baby Beehinds PUL covers, which are great. The price is very reasonable, and we've never had any leakages or other problems. I love that they come in cute colours. We were using plastic covers and getting a lot of nappy rash - I now suspect this was heat or sweat rash, as since we've changed covers the rash has disappeared. Amy, Highett
Baby Beehinds PUL cover, I find it works really well with the old style cloth nappies (terry squares) and has eliminated all leakage issues. Scharn
I have been using the Baby Beehinds PUL covers on my baby for about 10 weeks now and have found them to be fantastic. I have not had any leaks and find them very soft and stretchy on the tops of her legs and around her tummy, they don’t leave any marks. They dry in a flash and the tabs for holding down the velcro mean it doesn't snag on anything else in the wash.
I love the Baby Beehinds! Never had a leak; clean easily and don't stain or smell. Take a little longer to dry than pocket nappies, but worth it as the minky ones are so cute! The only negative I can find is that they are not one size fits all.
These are my all time favourite nappy. I mainly use the bamboo ones but mix it up with a couple of hemp and use the minky pockets when out and about. My baby has been in them since he was a couple of weeks old and I cannot fault them. If you are looking for a nappy that fits from birth to toilet training this is the nappy to choose.
Gorgeous colours, cute nappy, great fit.
The last product I purchased and used were two berry plush all in twos. These nappies are great as they can be used as a cover or as an all in two with the snap in insert so it makes them very versatile and great for quick changes when on the go.
I am not 100% happy with the pul touching bubs skin though and would prefer they were lined but bub has not had a reaction at all to it so it seems okay. I also find with a heavy wetting bub I need to add extra boosting now the berry plush has snaps both front and back this is easy to do I have the bp bamboo booster with the lovely minky top snapped in the front and an extra trifold or hourglass booster snapped in the back underneath. With the extra boosting these make great nap time nappies.
I have the snowball and black for my bub but his older brother had a northern lights and turquoise bp, they come in such lovely colours and the minkys are great quality. They are fantastic in summer with just a tee shirt.”
I bought a Berry Plush cover awhile ago. I love it over fitted nappies as it is so patable. They are a nice trim nappy cover.”
Blueberry's are a beautiful and functional nappy. We find the larger size accommodating especially for a larger baby, we found a lot of the others a touch itty bitty.
I purchased some blueberry training pants for my 2 year old who outgrew his Bumgenius nappies and was refusing to lie down for nappy changes. I have found the blueberry trainers excellent. They are very absorbent, and unlike other training pants, contain the wetness instead of leaking through. They are incredibly easy to pull up and down like real underwear and come in a fabulous range of designs in beautifully soft minky.”
Allyson, Townsville
Bummis
A friend recommended the Bummis range and I'm glad she did - we bought the SuperBrite covers and haven't had a failure yet. Compare well to a few other brands we bought at the same time. Really well made and durable, gusseted and groovy in design.
I recently bought a Bummis Super Brite Cover and I think it is fantastic. It fits over a large range of nappies and my son cannot get it off like other covers we own! I shopped around for a good price on it and Nurture Nappies was the cheapest.
I loved the Bummis Super Brite covers - so colourful and easy to use. The gussetted legs give that extra level of protection from leaks. It was sad that my newborn bub grew out of her covers so quickly!!
Great product, good quality and great fit.
I love this cover so much because it works really well for me and I rarely have an accident with leaking. It also comes with funky prints.
Prefold Kit
Fantastic for newborns when you are constantly changing nappies, as they are so easy to use, and the unbleached cotton is great on sensitive skin. Easy to wash and dry, they're great for starting out as a cloth nappy parent. Highly recommend them ... and they don't cost as much as other products so you can use them for newborns and then switch to other nappies later if you want to without breaking the bank. Suzie, Burnie
Biosoft Liners
My husband uses the Bummis Biosoft liners because he is a little poo phobic. They are also great to use when bubs has nappy rash and we need to use creams, which saves getting cream all over our MCNs.
Cute Tooshies
I found the cute tooshies fitted nappies the most reliable nappy. i.e. no unexpected leaks, through all growth stages. Nadine, Corrimal
Cute Tooshies night nappies are sensational. Super absorbent and pull apart nicely to dry in a reasonable time for a night nappy. The inner lining is so soft and always wicks away the wee from my daughter's skin.
I recently tried the Bear Bottoms fleece cover for overnight and it is FANTASTIC :) My son is an extremely heavy wetter, and this cover seemed to soak up any leaks that may have occurred. I now want more of these covers.
The Bear Bottoms covers are the best thing since cloth nappies were invented! They fit up to the ribs so nothing is getting out over night. There's nothing to dig in and they look so adorable on. Sometimes the simple ideas are the best, hey?
We have bought two Dancing Bears fleece covers because they are great. They give great coverage but are soft and comfy and so effective. We haven't had any leaks or compression issues despite very soggy night nappies underneath.
The Dancing Bears fleece night cover I bought from your store is great. I often check in to see if you have any available in the size/colour I am after. It is a fantastic night cover which I have never experience leaks with. It seems that your store is the only store I can get them from in Australia.
The easiest night cover I have ever used it was a lot better at containing leaks then a PUL cover without the extra work of a wool cover.”Stacey, Corrimal
I have purchased 3 Dancing Bears Bear Bottoms fleece covers for overnight use (sizes small, medium and large). These covers have been excellent purchases, providing excellent night time protection for my very heavy wetting daughter. The only comment I would have is that they are definitely sized on the large side and my daughter still has not really grown into the large size (at 2 years of age, 14.5kg and stocky).
Nurture Nappies is the only place in Australia that I have been able to find the Bear Bottoms in stock on a regular basis.
Was recommended this cover and it is fantastic! It is lightweight and the sizing is generous for a dedicated night nappy underneath. Very easy to use as it just pulls up over the night nappy. Have had no leaks while using this product so a very happy customer here!
We use Fuzzi Bunz nappies more than any other. They are slimmer line than all-in-ones, and it is easy to increase absorbency by extra stuffing. The sized system means that you can have two in nappies also. I find that the fit is better than other pockets due to the two layers of snaps.
They are very easy to use and so much nicer than disposables. Once you try them you will never want to go back to disposable ones. There is no comparison. These ones are a good design.
I love these pads, with the bamboo velour top layer, feels so soft to wear, and I feel great knowing that I have natural fibres against my skin and it is completely breathable.
I purchased some of the girly bits menstrual pads. They are really comfy and work well. Plus my toddler thinks the colours are nice and likes to take them in and out of the drawer where they are kept in the bathroom.Jess, Sydney
The majority of my nappies are Green Kids for the simple reason that they work! I use a microfibre insert with bamboo booster for days and a bamboo insert and booster at night and have never had a leak from my heavy wetter. They are a fabulous nappy and I recommend them to everyone I know! Plus the Minky times are divine to pat and look adorable!
While I haven't yet used this nappy on my youngest child, what a saviour this nappy has been when changing a wriggling toddler. Quick and easy to put on, trimmer than most OSFA nappies and comes in a great variety of colours. Usually one of the first nappies I reach for within my collection. The bamboo pocket stuffers are great for absorbency and easier to dry than some I have tried.
I have really enjoyed using the green kids all in one nappy. I really like the look of the funtime nappy and don't have to put pants over the top of them, plus I like them because they fit right from birth to toilet training age.
The Green Kids range of modern cloth nappies is very exciting! Green Kids offer a One Size Fits Most pocket nappy that comes in a large range of gorgeous and funky colours and designs. The minky designs will have you feeling your baby's fluffy bottom at any opportunity! But most importantly, I have never had a leak at all with these nappies and have been using them since my son was 3.5kg/3 weeks old. After being washed, the outer casings dry very quickly, and although the bamboo absorbers take a bit longer to dry they have always dried naturally within 2 days. Highly recommended! Lynda, Sydney
They are an awesome fit for my chubby legged baby and they are made from good quality material which means no pilling. Also the velcro on them is very generous and good quality - they are the only ones in my collection that my baby cant open yet. Also the greenkids bamboo boosters that are recommended for these nappies hold a huge amount of liquid and after you have washed them a few times dry surprisingly quick for bamboo boosters. Also they are Australian made!
I love Green Kids pockets. They're well priced, have continued to fit well as my daughter grows, and we've never had any leaks. Easy to use, and lots of cute colours.
GreenKids Anytime with Bamboo Booster: I first purchased this nappy for my very average daughter when she was four months old and found it a very large, bulky fit and very wide in the crutch. However, by the time my daughter was nine months old, it became one of my most used nappies. GreenKids are easily my most absorbent mass produced nappy and it is very easy to customise the absorbency by adding more inserts. Now that she has one sleep a day, she usually holds on and then does a really big wee when she relaxes and GreenKids are the only nappies I trust for sleep time. As an extra, we do lots of 2hour + car trips and GreenKids are great for this situation as well Lori, Geelong
I purchased the Green Kids one size pocket nappy package & I was so happy with them I bought more. They keep my toddler dry overnight with no leaks & I'm planning on using them for our newborn due next month also as they are one size. Great colour & pattern choice & being a pocket nappy, so easy to use, even my husband likes them. Very highly recommended!!
I have tried about 5 different pocket nappies, and the best in my experience so far is the GreenKids pocket one size nappy. It is very easy to use and wash, can fit more than one booster in if required, and takes a few different type boosters if you have a few different ones at home, and best of all made in Australia. Also dries quickly on the line.
Green Kids Anytimes nappies are the best Pocket nappies I've found for fit and leak-control. They are great overnight. The bamboo inserts are also fantastic. Never stinky and hold a lot!
I found this product had great absorbency. It is a one size fits all so it fit my newborn and my 2 year old. I found the fit on my newborn to be very good and had no issues with leaks. I did find it was a bit snug on my two year old and had a leak. My two year old is on the larger size though so I don't think this nappy would last him till toilet training but on a smaller 2 year old this wouldn't be an issue. Very easy to use and put together. The nappy itself dried very quickly but the insert does take some time to dry. Overall I did like this nappy.
Green Kids Anytime nappy is easy to use lovely range of colours and quick drying
Green Kids Anytime nappies are so far the best ones I have used. They stay dry the whole night, I can add as many boosters as required, they dry quickly after washing and they are not bulky like other nappies. After I started using them, I basically have put aside all my other cloth nappies. These ones are great!
more reviews coming in the next couple of days....
