Benefits of 100% Reusable Cloth Diapers
100% Reusable cloth diapers are the right choice for the planet. Disposable products create waste, whether that waste is sent to a landfill for thousands of years, flushed and disposed of through wastewater treatment, or composted and disposed of as yard waste. Reusable products do not create waste. Cloth diapers use fewer resources in their manufacture, distribution, use, and disposal.
We can't keep buying products knowing that we will be throwing them away after only a short period of use. You could save thousands of dollars using reusable cloth diapers on your baby. Parents often save more than $2,000 during the first two years of using cloth diapers versus disposable diapers. We are helping parents find the reusable cloth diapering products they need to get started. There is a lot to learn if you are new to cloth diapering. Learn about the four basic types of cloth diapers, how to wash cloth diapers, and how to care for reusable cloth diapers so they last and more.
The All-in-one Cloth Diaper
All-in-one reusable cloth diapers (or AIO diapers) have grown in popularity over the last few years. Many parents are choosing the all-in-one cloth diaper because they are the most leak-proof diaper available. They do not require a separate diaper cover like other cloth diapers. They have a sewn in diaper cover. No need to fumble with a sharp diaper pin. The All-in-one diaper is just as easy to fasten as a disposable diaper because of Velcro and snap fasteners.
The Fitted or Contoured Cloth Diaper
Your baby will be snug in a fitted or contoured reusable cloth diaper. These diapers fasten using Velcro or snaps and require a diaper cover. The one advantage fitted diapers made of cloth have over the all-in-one design is that it takes less time to dry them. These diapers are the perfect solution for a heavy-wetter. They are available in a variety of quality fabrics, colors and prints.
The Prefold and Flat Diaper
Prefold and Flat reusable cloth diapers most frequently compared to old-fashioned diapers. That's because they are. These diapers are also great for burp cloths, household cleaning cloths and more. You will need a diaper cover, diaper pin or Snappi to use with these diapers. Chinese Prefold Diapers and Birdseye Cotton Flat Diapers are the best prefold and flat diapers available.
The Pocket Cloth Diaper
Pocket reusable cloth diapers keep babies dry better than any other diaper on the market. These diapers are made of special materials to keep a baby's skin dry, eliminating diaper rash outbreaks. A pocket diaper is comprised of three parts: a waterproof outer barrier sewn to a moisture-wicking fabric to keep the skin feeling dry and an absorbent insert.
