bumGenius 4.0 Pocket Diaper Review
December 20, 2011 | 
Author The bumGenius 4.0 is a one-size diaper that is supposed to fit from 7-35 lbs. It has three rows of snaps for adjusting the rise to get a good fit as the baby grows. The stretchy tabs also help ensure a good, leak-free fit. This has been a great feature for us in getting a good fit on our little one that has a skinny waist and chubbier thighs. I also found the diaper to be a bit bulky at first, but by about 11 lbs it fit really well.

It has a PUL outer with a super soft lining on the inside that creates a pocket. There are several features of the pocket that help prevent leaks and wicking. They really have worked for us, containing some pretty big messes—we’ve never had a leak with this diaper! Since this is a pocket diaper, it can be stuffed with whatever you like (based on preference or need for more absorbency). It comes with two inserts, a newborn (can later be used as a booster) and a one-size that has an adjustable length. The newborn insert was never enough absorbency for us on its own, but the one-size insert has been great. The newborn insert can also be used as a booster. My only minor complaint is that it is kind of tight getting the one-size insert into the diaper when it is snapped down to the smallest size.
This diaper washes up really well. Occasionally we get faint staining, but sunning always takes care of that. Sometimes I forget to take the insert out before throwing it in the pail and it has always worked its way out in the wash. I also love how fast it dries since it is a pocket with an insert. I also like that I can put the diaper on the clothesline and the insert in the dryer.
If this is stuffed ahead of time, it is a great diaper for those less familiar with cloth diapers to use because you put it on the same as a disposable. Because it is so easy to use, this is a diaper that I often throw in the diaper bag for changes when we’re away from home.
The bumGenius 4.0 is definitely one of my go-to diapers. It is fairly economical–$17.95 for a reliable diaper that can be used from birth to potty training. And of course, there are some really cute new colors!

Blueberry Basix All-in-One Diaper
Can I give the Bottom Line at the beginning?
The Bottom Line: I LOVE THIS DIAPER! I think it is my new favorite! 
If I’m ever blessed enough to have another baby, I want my entire stash to be filled with this diaper!
Ok, now for the details…
This is an All-In-One diaper, but what makes it awesome is its pocket design. It has a total of 3 layers of microfiber sewn in. The insert is attached on one end so it comes out easily in the wash, which makes the drying time so much quicker!
Basix comes in 3 sizes and snaps on the side, so no issue with wing droop here. There are 3 rows of snaps on the tabs which help to get the perfect fit every time.
The super soft fleece on the inside helps to wick away moisture and keep your baby dry. I have had this diaper for a couple months and I’ve yet to see any pilling on the fleece. Did I mention how soft this fleece is? It feels like a cloud!
My most favorite feature is that I can stuff it with my hemp inserts. That has been my main issue with other AIO diapers. It’s so hard to add absorbency! Not here. My heavy wetter little one is always dry in the mornings when I use this diaper.
Plus, the price is right at $16.95! And don’t forget all the adorable prints and colors!

Blueberry Minky Bamboo One Size
We’ve just recently started carrying Blueberry and Swaddlebees products in our store, www.clothdiapersinc.com. The very second I saw these diapers, I fell in love! They are so adorable!
My little one is potty trained during the day and I only cloth diaper him at night now. So my stash is small…very small. However, I could not resist trying this Blueberry Minky Bamboo One Size diaper.
So I decided to do a review on it. :)
First of all, this diaper is oh-so-soft! It has an outer layer of laminated minky. The inner layer is a bamboo and organic cotton blend. There is also a micro fleece option. Two microfiber inserts are included in the diaper. These inserts are a little different than your “normal” rectangular microfiber inserts. The small insert is 3 layers and the large insert is 4 layers. The large insert has snaps to adjust for medium/large settings.
This diaper has two rows of snaps across the waist and two rows in the rise. It is recommended for babies from 10 to 35 pounds. My little boy is 3 years old and weighs about 36 pounds and it fits him perfectly with a little room to grow.
One reason some people don’t like pocket diapers is because of the stuffing. However, I found this diaper very easy to stuff even with both inserts. It is a little wider than a FuzziBunz diaper.
All you need to do to prep this diaper is to wash it once in hot water. Then you are good to go. My little man is a super heavy wetter, which has not gotten better since he daytime potty trained. Eh, what are you gonna do, right? Microfiber inserts don’t cut the mustard with him. I always double stuff his other dipes with hemp jersey inserts. But, in order to give a proper review, I used the microfiber inserts the first time…
As I suspected, the lone microfiber inserts were a bust. He leaked. Not the diaper’s fault in the least, just the excessive wetting. So, the next time I used it, I double-stuffed with hemp. No leaks! Just last night I used it again with the long microfiber insert and 1 hemp insert. Still no leaks!
Basically, I love this diaper! And my little boy likes it too!
