BumGenius Freetime (Snap, Albert)

It's well made and highly adjustable. The layers of fabric inside are longer so you can fold them for extra absorbency, but I find this makes it harder to use. The poppers are tricky to get done up, especially when the initially calm baby decides halfway through the nappy change that it's going to wriggle and scream at you (probably because you're taking too long messing about with the thing). It takes longer to dry than my different types of washable nappies. I have hardly used it and wouldn't buy again.

I have tried a few brands of reusable nappy and these are by far my favourite. They are not the cheapest but they are super absorbent yet so trim, looks as thin as a disposable under my daughter's leggings. And they are truly all in one, don't need to do anything extra and any stains come out in the sun. The only downside is that they are not the quickest to dry. Love them.

I got this for my daughters friend so that she would always know who it was off(my husband was her maths teacher.She loved it.

Brilliant

Bumgenius is sheer Genius.I had no idea cloth diapers could be so hassle free till I started using Bumgenius.These are hands down the best diapers available.No leaks, no rashes. Washing is also easy. Defiitely recommend this to everyone.

Used almost 18 months with no complain.

When our son was 7 months old, we decided to make the switch from disposable to cloth diapers. I was tired of the waste of money and trash, and my brother had given us eight bumGenius diapers they had used for their boys. Of the eight given to us, six were pocket style, and two were all-in-ones. Knowing nothing, I immediately assumed I would love the convenience of the all-in-ones. While that turned out to be true, they also had their drawbacks, and I now prefer the pocket style instead. The pocket style is less likely to leak and has the ability to be double stuffed (we double stuff overnight). These two things make it the superior choice for us. That said, I still use the all-in-ones during the day, and they are great as long as we change him before they get too damp.Sizing the bumGenius is very easy. Simply snap down to the appropriate size for your child, and you're set (I accessed the bumGenius website for sizing guidelines).I assumed in the beginning that you put it on just like any other diaper. Seems obvious, right? Wrong! Cloth diapers should be put on differently than disposables. If put on properly, you're far less likely to have leaks. I found this YouTube video VERY helpful: (...)Washing is super easy! I do a pre-wash (quick wash on my machine) on cool (cool water helps to keep stains from setting) with no detergent and Nature's Miracle in the bleach compartment of my HE machine. Then, I do a heavy duty wash with detergent (regular Tide for HE, no more than halfway to the one on the measuring cup) and Nature's Miracle in the bleach compartment. Hang to dry (unsnap the inserts if snapped to dry faster), and you're ready to go. I've been using them for over a month now and have no residual smells or stains, and I've never used bleach.

First of all, these diapers really are wonderful for a lot of reasons! The absorbency is great, I never had a leak in these and my son is a very heavy wetter! He has leaked through almost everything else I've tried. Also, they dry fast! Just as fast as my pocket diapers...I love that in an all in one! The problem I have with them...and the reason I'll have to de-stash them is that they are way too snug. They're supposedly able to fit from 8lbs to over 30 lbs but they don't at all for my boys. My youngest, admittedly, is quite chubby. He's almost 20 lbs at 6 months old. They don't fit him at all anymore around the legs. My older son is 20 months old and about 27 lbs, he's actually pretty tall and slim. They don't fit him either. They're both very uncomfortable in these. I'm soooo disappointed that these run so small because they would've been my favorite go-to diapers.

I wasn't sure if I should go with 2 stars or 3 stars. I own two BG Freetime diapers. I think the quality is lacking - or the consistency of quality. One of the diapers must have been a factory defect, but I've already washed the diaper and don't think that I can return it. I was initially pleased with the other but now I don't like it since I've had time to purchase other cloth diapers. My baby has chunky thighs and these diapers fit awkwardly on her. They don't quite rise high enough on her either. In other pockets and aio's she wears the medium size, but these diapers she has to wear the largest setting. I don't see these diapers making it to the weight promised (we're at 20 lbs now). With that said, we have had no leaks so far. All in all, I will not buy these again most likely.

I'm a BG fan and have been for a while but I never got the chance to try the Freetime.Pros: Retains color, very soft inside, inner linings do well to wick away moisture, tolerates dryer well on low settings, snaps are attached to diaper well, OS diaper so should fit most babies from infancy through potty training.Cons: No gussets, may not fit smaller babies, have had issues in the past with BG diapers PUL lining going bad after only a few washes.Overall: Very satisfied with the diaper. Decent fit for my average sized toddler and I imagine like most BG diapers it will fit my newborn fairly well too.

I have had this diaper for over a year now. The diaper itself has lasted well and is made from a quality material. It is super easy to maintain as there is no stuffing but it is the bulkiest cloth diaper we have. It looks kind of awkward on my baby because of how bulky it is-even now that he is a toddler. I could never put pants over it. It has 2 liners in it which I guess is why it is so bulky. We have never had to stuff 2 liners into any of our other cloth diapers so I don't think 2 liners is necessary. I didn't order any more of this brand because of how bulky. I will restate that not having to stuff this diaper after every wash is definitely a plus.

One of my favorite diapers. It is a little bulky and fits better once baby can switch to the middle rise snaps, but it can fit a pretty small baby. I haven't had any leaks or blowouts. They come out of the wash looking new every time.

We started using these along with the 4.0s and just love them. They are really easy to use and require zero brain power at those 3am changes. No stuffing makes them easy to put away after they have dried (which they do very quickly!)My only complaint is that there is only one print (not counting limited editions, which is such a racket).These are the absolute perfect diaper for someone who is clueless about cloth diapering and just wants to go with the easiest method out there.

Adorable all in one spray then wash no pocket!Update- This is the only cloth diaper I have that leaks. All my other diapers are the 2 in 1 inserts, while this one is one piece. I have a variety Charlie Banana, no name brand and other BumGenius, one size diapers. It seems like this diaper's top around the waist is thinner or something is just different than the others. I wish it was the 2 in 1 like my others, cause the design is so adorable.

We have tried several different brands of cloth diapers, and these are my wife's and my favorites. These are the least likely to leak, and can be used overnight. Two flaps is a great design for an all-in-one diaper, it dries much faster than other all-in-ones that have the insert sewn into them. We also prefer AIO over pocket diapers. The price is higher than the other brands, but the quality is reflected in the price. Even with the high price, you will save money in the long term with cloth diapers over disposables.

I loved this one, just bought one and didn't try it until my newborns 5th day, tested it for sleep night time, didn't change it for about 8 hours,made it tough for it and really impressed me. No leak, easy to remove, easy to wash, quicker to put on than another brand I got.For me, 5 stars is not enough on this one.

I am new to cloth diapering and this is the first All in One Size diaper that I have purchased. Initially I was hesitant to purchase an one size diaper for fear that it would not fit as nicely as sized fitted ones, but this one fits great and I am now considering purchasing more like it. It is a little bulky at the moment on my 12 lb little one compared to the disposables that I sometimes put him him, but it is super absorbent and we have not had any problems so far with leakage. It was also easier than I thought to adjust the size for him and I do like that this diaper will grow with my little one over time.

I'm fully aware that not all diapers will fit every baby the same, but you should never base your decision to try a diaper because someone else hates it.. I really love this diaper. It's unique with the petals that allow for good versatility in customizing absorption. It also fits really trim, which is a plus. Although the 4.0 fluffy bulk is also cute and not obnoxious like some other super bulky diapers. I own every version diaper BumGenius makes, including the new Elemental, all of which are amazing. Never had any problems.

This was my first freetime diaper, the liner started to rip out after the third wash. I contacted bumgenius/cotton babies and they sent me a new diaper after I sent mine back. I was turned off of freetime diapers after the first product, but I used that one and it really held up well. I have since bought more freetime diapers. Almost a year later and I prefer freetime diapers as I can grab these on the go without stuffing them, really a great thing for a mom of a busy toddler. I am planning on buying more as I am expecting my second child and I know I will have even less time.
