Bumgenius are our most reliable nappy. They were one of the first we bought, and after trying numerous brands (possibly all cloth nappies available!!) we are still using our fav nappy as our main stash.
We have a 4 week old baby and a 22 month old toddler and both of their stashes is comprised of BG.
Easy to use, easy to boost to the absorbancy required, cute, practical and great value cloth.
I find the aplix is more size adjustable through each stage/size
I have tried a variety of nappies so far and this is the best one. It is a shame that they are a bit expensive. They keep my chubby 5 month old dry for hours and we use these for the night and when we go out. I wish I only bought these but I have already stocked up on cheaper ones. They dry quickly and he looks sweet in them. I can only recommend them.
My daughter doesn't seem to get on well with disposables not matter how often we change her. So we gave BumGenius One-Size 4.0 with Aplix a go.
She is a chubby 10 month old and we have the nappy on full, not poppered down. It has dealt with everything she has thrown at it, including some horrific poonamis/poosplosions. She is an olympic widdler and they keep her dry for 3-4 hours. We haven't tried her any longer.
Nice and easy to wash and they dry quickly without a tumble-dryer, although if I'm putting it on anyway, I throw the inserts in with the clothes that need drying.
All in all, very pleased with them. Not sure how long the Aplix will last, but certainly has made it very easy for a complete novice like me.
