Repurchasing till he can't fit in them anymore. Size 6
Ok, Going to start by saying; these diapers had me worried at first. As most low cost diapers do. I only worry because my kiddo had a bad allergic reaction to one of the bargain brands in the past. I'm almost all the way through an entire case, so I figured I could do a good review based on having used them for the past month.
Since Luvs decided to jack up their cost last month, I was looking for a more wallet friendly alternative. My child has special needs, yet is still too small for the bigger sizes. I am keeping him in baby diapers until the last possible moment. Just due to the cost. Me complaining that Luvs raised the price is NOTHING compared to the cost of a case of youth diapers. With those, you are looking at about 96 diapers costing between $55-$70.
When comparing these diapers to Luvs:
* They are a little smaller in size. Luvs are slightly longer and wider (see pictures for comparisons). These do not have the wider stretchy side panels. But that's Okay. They still work perfectly fine. They still have a side panel, it's just not as wide of a strip of elastic. It also stretches but doesn't feel as sturdy.
* I have not experienced a blowout with these, unlike Luvs, which has blown out overnight and leaked gel EVERYWHERE. Speaking of the gel, my kiddo likes to poke holes in his diaper on occasion with toys, or because he manages to fall or roll on one (a toy) just the right way to puncture it. Hasn't happened with these.
* They do not smell at all. Which is great, because the powdery smell of Luvs kinda nauseates me.
* They hold quite a bit of fluid and have yet to leak on me.
* They stay relatively thin, even when they are wet.
* They haven't caused any reaction to my kiddo's extra sensitive skin. This was my main worry when changing brands.
For a cheaper diaper, they actually work great. I only dinged a star because they could be a little bigger or stretchier. Just to allow for more comfortable movement or growth.
