Rated 5 out of 5 by KepB7 from Excellent diapers! These diapers are so great! They’re soft on my little one’s skin, they’re absorbent, we didn’t experience any leaks! They even worked overnight without any leak problems (she’s a belly sleeper). 10/10 recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Transter4 from Love it I love how this diaper is not giving my son a rash like the other diapers. This diaper also protect him from having blow out. He is not leaking out of the diapers. He is a happy baby when it comes to his diapers because there is no added cream that I have to do for him.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Justine4 from My new favorite diapers!! I have had so many problems with diaper leaks and blow outs in the past, with different bargain brand diapers that over tried. Although these may be a little more expensive initially, it makes up for the cost in that I don't have to change the diaper every single time my baby urinates during the night. They are so soft on baby's skin too. I will continue to buy these diapers from now on!
