Family Go Green, Inc.

We received this when our 4th son was 2 1/2 and we were pregnant with our 5th son.  So our review is based on sizes newborn thru large settings of this one size cover/insert system.  This is manufactured by The Natural Baby Company which stands by their products very well, we have had issues with products in the past and they have always taken great care of us. Note- problem with products were not mass issues- one or two small issues they corrected immediately. Their Customer Service is very good.  However they do choose to manufacture most if not all of their products in China which is not what we look for in a company. They also offer a disposable insert for these diapers which we do not agree with either as we choose to live disposable free for most areas of our life.

Newborn review- this fit our baby well, he was 7lbs and not ultra skinny. Born 4 weeks early he was of a good size.  I nurse exclusively so there was not many times we could reuse the cover. That was the main negative. The other negative was the insert seemed too big when it was on the smallest setting. However the insert was ultra absorbent and organic.

Small Review- Very absorbent, ok fit- not really a good fit for our chunky boy, but cover never got more than one use because breast milk pooh went all over due to the insert design.

Medium Review-Same as Small but fit did improve greatly on the next setting.

Large Review- This was used on our older son who is very petite not chunky a bit for the large size. It fit him like a bikini which was great under clothes but not great at all for nights, his bottom would come out of it sometimes if he snagged it on blankets etc. But that does have a lot to do with the strength of their closure system. The absorbency was enough for our toddler even on heavy wetting and as his poo is firmer it did allow for the cover to be reused.

Overall review:

Five Stars- Perfect; Four Stars- Good; Three Stars- Usable; Two Stars- Not recommended; One Star-Avoid Purchasing

Fit- Three Stars- depends on baby’s frame greatly and in my opinion will not fit all babies. Our chunky baby likely will not fit in this for size large.

Absorbency- Four Stars- Definitely would work well for most babies.

Usage- Four Stars- Only four versus five because it’s an all in two so you have multiple pieces and newbies and some resistant to cloth would not want to deal with that.

Manufacturing- One star- Manufactured in China.

These are found at cloth diaper stores all over the U.S. and Canada, if you wish to try one please shop local as it supports your local economy.
