I recently had the pleasure of trying out a new
FuzziBunz One-size Diaper. They generously sent me one to try out and they are also going to be sending one to a lucky reader! More on that later!
I'd like to start out with a few of the things that stood out to me about this diaper right off of the bat.
The sizing system is an elastic with sizable button holes. Much like what you find in childrens' pants. It's not quite as easy to change as a button down or fold down type, BUT the great thing about this is that it's easily replaced, and chances are you won't need to change sizes often, so it's really not a big deal. I'll talk a little more about this later.
The tag. This might seem silly, but the tag on this is great! It has the best care instructions. It reads: "Knock solids into toilet / shake insert out of pocket / store in dry pail / machine wash hot / do not bleach / tumble dry low / do not iron"
Now some of that seems common sense, but the solids, insert and dry pail especially are often answers to common questions that I notice on message boards. I think it's really great that they put this right on their product :)
The inside is incredibly soft and there are tons of snaps on the front, which is great to get a good fit. The great things about snaps is that it can be harder for older babies to get off and you don't have to worry about velcro pilling and catching on everything in the wash.
Okay, back to the elastic for a moment and then we'll get to the fit :)
Elastic on diapers is one of those things that simply can't last forever. It goes out and on many diapers it can be a pain to replace and/or costly to have someone else do it for you. The great thing about this sizing system is that because the elastic is the sizing, it is not fully enclosed and it's incredibly easy to get to. That is a budget saver and would (I image) allow these diapers to last much longer and through more children if needed.
The waist elastic in this is also adjustable, which is a great unique feature.
Below is my almost 2 month old baby girl wearing the diaper. It's actually really trim through the legs, which I was surprised by. She seemed really comfortable in it.
You can see here that the butt is a bit fluffy for such a small baby. It got a great fit though, especially around her thighs, check that out! I do have to say that after I got her clothes back on, I really didn't notice the size of the diaper. It was more fluff than firm, if that makes sense. I would use these on a baby her size, no problems. She's sitting somewhere around 12-14 lbs btw.
I wanted to show this diaper on a larger baby too :) This is my older daughter. She is around 25 lbs and is 19 months old. The diaper fit her great. Really trim and really not bulky on her at all. She seemed to like it too :) She did a dance and show for me. Again, I was really able to get a good fit with this diaper and she is def. shaped different than my youngest, aside from the obvious size difference :)
I had very little experience with
FuzziBunz going into this, but I really like this diaper. I love the snaps and I love the fit. I didn't have a single leak or wicking problem with this diaper. I am really pleased and I think they'll actually fit longer (larger) than some of the other diapers I have, so that's another big bonus.
I do wish that the size change was a little faster, just because I have two in diapers and it would be really great to have a couple to toss in my car diaper bag and be able to use it on either girl. I could, but it would take an extra moment, which isn't a big deal, but I'm lazy, what can I say?
I want to mention too, that
FuzziBunz is doing a
promotion right now. When you buy 9 of these One-Size diapers you get
$40 in FuzziBunz rewards to use on their products. It's only good through October 30th (I know, I'm so late on this!) BUT if you hurry and buy now, you have through December 15th to redeem your rewards. Now would be a great time to buy.
