Are these worth the cost? We are both Bummis and Bumpkins prefolds with Rumperooz covers-so bulky in front! What size for trifold in a cover?

Totally worth the cost. They are way thinner than regular prefolds. I used these at night a lot because they held so much. As for size, it depends on the size of your child. I had toddler sized ones because my child was about 12-18 months when we used them and he peed a LOT.

I used the small as inserts for pocket diapers. Which would be more like pad folding for a cover. If you have a toddler you can get a medium, but I wouldn't go larger than that. They we're trim enough to not be as bulky as microfiber but more absorbent. I have since had to abandon all pockets for fitteds because my toddler is such a heavy wetter. I used them on a daily basis diapering 2 babies. They held up pretty well to the daily abuse.

I think they are worth the cost. I have never used Bummis or Bumpkins but these are much trimmer than Econobum prefolds. As for size, it really depends on how big you little one is. We are still using the small on our 7 month old but the medium works as well. With our daughter, who potty trained at 23 months, we never used bigger than the medium.

These are very bulky & stiff. There is little to no mobility after putting on one with a cover, so makes bedtime uncomfortable. Not usable for daytime diapers. They are quite pricey, I don't use them that often to justify the price.

What S. Alex said. These are great covers btw, I actually owned the deluxe also and they were a major failure... these are perfect.

I used bumpkins flushable liners. They fit just fine. I personally found that new born infant baby poop just went right through bumpkins liners, so I moved on to a fleece washable liner. But, as I recall, the fit was just fine...just didn't suit my needs at the time. hope this helps :)

I have only used the bummis plastic wet covers. Not even sure they sell the bummis brand basic plastic covers anymore... but they have served us well over the last 5 years. Other brands of plastic covers are available. It is a cheaper alternative than the cloth clip or velcro closure variety.

I haven't used them yet as my son is a bit too small still. I did fold a prefold and stuff it in the pocket part of the diaper to see it it would fit (it did), and by my research they should work if you want to use them instead of the microfiber liners.

Are you just trying to make the disposable diapers "cute"??? Because that seems like a wast of money to me. You can get outfits that come with covers. I'm not sure why you would want to use it over a disposable. It works great with prefolds and cloth inserts though! I have two and they've been GREAT!

These work fine as burp cloths. They are nice and big, so its nice as you can fold them however you'd like. I would say, though, that I prefer using the Gerber prefolds as burp cloths much better. The difference between flats and prefolds is that with prefolds, the fabric has already been sewn together in layers in the center. I find them to be more absorbant as well.

To be honest, I thought the same thing and bought some myself, but never used them. I think you use them on the insert and then put the cover on? Never tried it that way. I do use the snappies on the other cloth diapers we have from our second child.

Yes! I use them only with prefolds. Just do the fold, lay them in the cover, and that's it. Have been using them exclusively for over 18 months and they are the best I've tried (have tried 3 of the top name-brands). I use the Indian Cotton Prefolds (Osocozy is one brand). They are amazing.

Its a much tighter fit. The "betterfit" feature is shorter meaning once trifolded it should fot the exact lenght of the cover. With that being said it doesn't have that extra allowance to work with to fold around the baby at the top. So if you want to snappi it buy a size larger or so with the standard or premium not the better fit option

Not in my experience, I bought two different covers. One fit the other didn't and kept popping off the pad. The American Baby Company's Heavenly Soft Minky Dot Fitted Contoured Cover fit the best out of the two I tried. It still tented a bit but after a few uses stopped tenting and works great without any extra wear on the cover.

Better fit always leaked for my son. Doubling works, like some of the others suggested, but then you might as well use the regular prefolds. I used premium for a long time until he started regularly leaking/blowing out, then switched to the bigger toddler size and haven't had an issue since. Toddler size is large and can be bulky and affect how pants fit, so you might not want to use them too soon.

Well Cameron you should buy one,mine is nice and comfy,luckily it doesn't come with a poncho - who needs all that bulk unless u sleep outside. Good luck.

I believe that the Boppy cover is suppose to fit. I ended up returning my Nursit pillow and found a Boppy on sale. I was not happy w/the Nursit pillow.

My best advice is contact the seller, he can customize the size of the covers for you. They are exceptionally well made. Ended up buying two different types of covers from him.

I actually bought a few homemade ones from a seller on ebay and am VERY impressed with the quality and fit. Her seller name is ptd0926 if you're interested in that type of thing. I've also heard good things about sheetworld and babyletto, but haven't had a chance to try them yet since I'm just getting started :)

Yep, it's a cover, I even have used them with Flip inserts. It only has a flap in front, and they actually don't recommend using it, but it's good for when you want to have it ready for your husband to use and keep the prefold in place.
