Talk to me about sunbabies.

I like the idea of bamboo...but it gets crunchy and rough if I don't dry it in the dryer. I have Alvas with suedecloth and they pill and don't stay soft long. Even my oldest Sunbabies are still soft inside.

:agree: I have both sizes...the size 2 have a higher rise...but my almost three year old can wear both sizes...just one snap setting difference in the waist.

The only problem we've had with ours is that several of them wick out of the stitching around the elastic. With that being said, I can't really even call that a huge issue because they have withstood some terribly full diapers that I'm not sure any of our others would have been able to. They aren't my favorites, but are certainly a decent diaper.

Okay I have to add--- 12 just arrived in the mail today 13 days for shipping this time around (not bad at all) and two of the diapers arrived with broken snaps. I e-mailed Sunpei with photos and less then an 1/2 hour later she's sending me 2 new diapers. I kinda feel bad for complaining since they are so cheap, but they were broken before I washed them and none of my others ever had broken snaps.

Wow that's excellent customer service. Did you order right from the sunbaby website? I'm still on the fence about these but I'm starting to lean towards go. It seems like more people have had good experiences than bad. Also did you pay extra for the express shipping or did they just come faster? Thanks.

[gingerpeachee]

I didn't pay for the faster shipping, I was just lucky! lol You should get one for $8ppd off the FSOT and see how you like it.... you probably won't get an insert though.

ETA: I ordered right off the Sunbaby website.

I bought a few because of the cute prints. They have a nice trim fit, but everything else about them disappointed me.

The sewing is really bad on mine, crooked and bunched up. One of them leaked straight through the waterproof outer. I also don't care for the hip snaps. For some reason they reversed them. The female (flat) half of the snap is on the side tab of the diaper and the male half is on the front panel. Since my baby has chubby thighs, the extra male halves of the snaps poke into her legs.

I was expecting mine sooner but it took almost a full month (28 days).

I too, got 3 out of 12 of them with broken snaps... I haven't emailed her yet, will do that first thing tomorrow!
