SnugWees  

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
I purchased 2 Snug Wee AIO's from this site: http://snugwee.com/ .

I decided to try one since I wanted a fleece AIO, but needed side snaps that my baby couldnt take off. These are great! They are a fleece outer, very high quality fleece that still looks like new. The inners are cute knits that match the outer. There are lots of side snaps making this AIO very adjustable. I got the size large, and my baby who is 24 lbs has plenty of growing room.

The only downside to these AIO's is the drying time. Since they are an AIO they take a bit longer to dry than other diapers. I usually just hang them over the top of the door when they come out of the dryer and they are dry the next morning, so no biggie.

The customer service from Snug Wee is also great. When I emailed asking about the fabrics, I got a prompt, friendly reply.

Snugwees

I have 2 of these. One I bought off the trading post which is the normal all in one. And I bought one directly from Yvonne. A day 2 night all in one. The sewing on these diapers is wonderful. I can't find a flaw anywhere (and trust me I've looked). These are great for nighttime. The regular AIO has flannel on the inside so for at night I add a doubler with fleece. These are a bit bulky for day though. The day 2 night is my favorite. It has a soaker sewn in and a pocket in the back to add another doubler that she provides and you can add more so if need be, but for me I didn't need the extra what she gave me worked great on my 3 year old. The fit is great.
As for customer service, Yvonne is one of my favorite WAHMs because she answered all of my 100 questions very quickly. She also sent my package a week earlier than origonally planned. I would definatly recommend the day 2 night as a great nighttime diaper for anyone with a heavy wetter or even not a heavy wetter.

We love our Snugwees! Yvonne is such a sweetheart. I won a Snugwee Windpro fleece AIO on a wahmall auction and because it had a smudge on it, she added a second AIO for free! Totally unneccessary, I couldn't even FIND the smudge, but what great wahm service, yes?

I'm not a fan of fleece AIOs because of the bulk & well, we like prefolds & covers here... but I really loved our Snugwees. Flawlessly made, adorable & the fit was great on our skinny toddler. He even wore one over night (that wasn't intended to be an overnight AIO) with very little leaking (he fell asleep in it). Took just as long to dry as my other AIOs.

Great workmanship, highly recommend.

I won one of these off a wahmall auction and I liked the design of it (particularly how the soaker is a bit narrower than the fleece outer). I think the patch is really cute and it is a very well made diaper.

The fit is not great on my tall, skinny toddler, and I have problems with leaking, even though the outer is windpro (though I periodically have trouble with all fleece AIO's, though). I think these would work well (in terms of fit) on a baby that had wide hips. I do find it very bulky as well.

I had to get a Snugwee because I love penguins...

Anyway, I ordered a PDQ (Pretty-Darn-Quick-Drying) Snugwee with flannel interior and Windpro outer. This is a "pocket" diaper--in addition to a hemp layer in the actual diaper, you can also slide a soaker into the pocket for additional absorbency. I haven't tried going without the soaker, but I'm assuming it would work for a short time.

I love the way this diaper fits my baby, who is all-over chubby with a big belly. It's extremely absorbent too. Haven't tried overnight yet, but it held perfectly through playtime and an unexpectedly long nap (a good thing, since she chose to take that nap while lying on top of me! ). It is bulky--I don't think I could get pants or shorts over it unless they were vastly oversized. But I find I have that problem with all cloth diapers except FuzziBunz, just because Mallory is big to begin with.

On the down side, I find it very hard to get the soaker into the pocket. The opening isn't very big, and I suppose because of the fabric types, the soaker doesn't "slide" in the way an insert does in a FuzziBunz. If I order any more, I might just get the standard AIO or ask if she can make the opening a little bit wider. Plus she put one of her penguin patches on the soaker, which I found a bit odd---seems like it would interfere with absorbency. (Although I love that penguin!)

Also, the flannel got really, really pilly after the first wash. That might just be the nature of flannel, though. :

And despite its name, it doesn't dry all that quickly...I threw it in the dryer with some JoeyBunz, and after one 70-minute cycle the JBs were dry but the Snugwee was still damp around the bindings. That's no big deal to me--I just threw it on the drying rack--but it's something to consider.

All things considered, I'm pleased with the diaper and may get some more if I come into some money--they're pretty expensive. (She did send a 10% off coupon with my order, though!)

And the penguin is too, too cute.

This is my FAVORITE nighttime diaper. I have the PDQ AIO version, and I swear to you that my almost-13 month old has never woken up feeling even moist. A little bulky, but who cares when you have a dry baby and dry sheets in the morning! The sewing is great, and the little penguin super cute!

I love this diaper! This is my favorite nighttime diaper -- no leaking at all. We have the PDQ AIO version, and while it's a bit bulky, it's worth it for the dry baby and sheets in the morning!

YAY FOR SNUGWEES!!

The day2night is my favorite nightime diaper and Yvonne is so great. They are trim compared to other nightime systems and my toddler has never had a leak. As far as customer service, Yvonne can't be beat. Here is a story to show how awesome she is:

One of my day2nights was loking very strange and the cover fabric was a mess. I emailed Yvonne and she asked me to send it to her to take a look at. After looking it over, she thought that somehow excessive dryer heat had fused the outer fleece layer to the inner waterproof barrier. Very strange since I only hung it out to dry in the sun.

In any case she offered to send me a new diaper as a replacement free of charge. I think that was way cool of her. Especially since I bought this diaper used - I didn't even get it from her. So a happy day for me and a big thumbs up for Yvonne and Snugwees!!

I love my Snugwee's!!!! The day to night diaper is the best night time diaper we own. It is very trim and always contains everything while keeping my son's skin very dry feeling. My son loves how soft it is and likes having the penguine (on the SnugWee tag) as a sleeping pal. Yvonne is great to work with!
