Cloth Diaper challenges


Many may wonder why I changed to cloth.. well the fact is that there are no blowouts- won me over, saving the environment and money was an added bonus. I thought buying made in the USA with cloth diapers was going to be easy I mean Thirsties is one of the top brands and are made here in CO . I use AIOs not pre-folds. Being in CO there are many cloth diaper stores my favorite one is Eco-politan they are very non-bias towards a particular brand and they have an excellent selection compared to Sweet Beginning and The Green Monkey. Almost all their products have an alternative made in the USA brand excluding potty training toilets (that is for another post).


So in the past I have tried Rumparooz, and Bumgenius. Rumparooz is a local company -I'm not a fan of their customer service and their "made with love from China." BumGenius, I absolutely love... they are cheaper in price then rumparooz (have a better design) but are regrettably made in china which saddens me.


I bought USA made Happy Heinys and Knicker Nappies. Happy Heinys are my favorite they are not to expensive and come in awesome design and design patterns ( like the skulls). They are good quality and fit wonderfully. Also I bought Knicker Nappies which I love the fabric on the Loopy Do but the pocket is extremely tiny. Its hard to stuff it and I have a smaller hand then most. I love the idea of Rocky Mountain Diapers the size snaps that are on the sides were driving me crazy because their was little space to change it so I did not invest in them.
