anyone tried GroBaby diapers?

What do you think of them? Are they more difficult to use than a standard AIO? Are they pretty durable? How trim do they fit on babies at the small end of the size range (he's around 15 lbs)? I'm thinking of going largely to AIOs because my 6 month old is extremely wiggly and often rather crabby and I need something quicker than fitteds & a cover.

I really like the gro baby. However, I don't think they fit really well on the very small end of weights, like 7-12 lbs. At 15 lbs though, I think they would be great. I really like the velcro style closures on them that are different than any other velcro style diaper closure out there right now. I find them to be trim and super easy to use. So overall, : with them!

I have tried them and like them. I am still new to cloth diapering and haven't tried that many different diapers yet. My 2.5 year old is very squirmy and trying to get a diaper on him that snaps is near impossible so the velcro closure is nice. It's a different kind of closure than the bum genius has. The Gro-Baby is a softer, non scratchy velcro-like closure. I've had a Gro-Baby on both my boys and it fit both of them fine (one boy is 2.5 years, the other is 6 months). The one thing that I don't like is how the inset is smaller in the front than the back. Obviously with boys, front absorbancy is important. I may just need to adjust how I put the diaper on my child, but the insert kind of bunched up in the front and his pee leaked through to the shell. It was fine with the baby, but the toddler is who leaked. Maybe it's just that he doesn't stay still for diaper changes, but I haven't had the same leaking problem with FB or BG diapers he's used where the insert is the same width in the front and back. However, I do like the insert and how thick it is, just that it seems to bunch up on my child.
