Thirsties AIO

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
There is a great Thirsties sale going on, 15% off at Mom's Milk Boutique. http://www.momsmilkboutique.com/products.php?cat=58

I'm thinking of trying a Thirsties AIO. Anyone love/hate these?

ive heard mixed reviews, but more good than bad.

I have 2 in my stash and I like them. They are very daddy/daycare/non-cd user friendly. I like that you can stuff them for more absorbency, which I normally do. They can take a while to dry, but I turn them inside out for the dryer which seems to work the best. I don't know that I would want a whole stash of them, but they work and they're cute. When DS outgrows the smalls I'll probably get a couple of mediums.

We like them for simplicity, but you do ned to stuf them, which takes away from the trimness, and they still do not last very long. We consider them "around the house" dipes, but they are simple and cheap to buy used(like $6), because a lot of people get them and dont like them.

I have 1 of the original version...I love how cute it is and how well it fits. Compared to the BG aio is definitely leaks more so we mainly only use it around the house. It is the only diaper (pocket or aio) that I have to double stuff. It is nice that you can flip it inside out for washing and drying. Because of the sale, it's worth a try but i wouldn't get a whole bunch until you know you like them.

They actually work well for my 2 yo. I change every couple hours unless he's poopy, and I don't think it's ever leaked for us. If we are going out, or for naptime, I add an extra insert. Overall I like it a lot, and it's perfect for dh.

we love them, and we seem to have every diaper known to man (mostly pockets and AIOs). I stuff them with the thirsties hemp doubler and they last a long time when out of the house. They don't work for night time. I've actually never had a leak from them during the day... they are the only diaper that has never BF-poo leaked on me.

I had two but got rid of them. They just didn't seem to hold much, and stuffing them with more seemed to defeat the purpose of an AIO. The fit was good though, very trim.

We like using them. We only need to stuff them if we use them for nap or night time!

I have one and really like it. My dd is 4 months old, and we've never had to stuff it and I've never had a leak. I think the colors are really cute too. As for drying, if I am putting them in the dryer, I just take it out when everything else is dry and finishing drying it by line drying it in my bathroom. I also use a clothesline outside on sunny days and it dries much more quickly than I think it would-- esp. if I turn it inside out. It doesn't take longer to dry than fitteds.

thanks for the link! I freaking love them too. I've also at least tried abot every kind of dipe and never had a leak.

also the thirsty outlet has seconds frequently. They must have really strict standards because I've gotten seconds where the only 'problem' I could see was the thread was the wrong colour or the back stitching was sloppy.
