The aplix makes me leary, but there are a few on ebay that are super cute and I'm tempted. Any vets out there care to comment?

I won a patchwork MB off of e-bay, and I *do* like it. It has snaps, though, and isn't aplix. I add a joeybunz in there, and it can get my super-soaker babe through a 2-3 hour nap. I have had a little wicking around the legs, and wish there were more pronounced "gussets". But then again, I've yet to find an AIO that didn't wick at least a little. It is my QUEST!

I think if the price is right, I'd go for it. They are awfully cute.

I'm still mourning the loss of the Ice Star, and am swearing off the evil addiction that is e-bay diaper stalking, at least for the next few days.

Here is a previous thread on them... http://mothering.com/discussions/sho...monkey+bottoms

Thanks, I just got my searching privileges back but I couldn't look them up when I asked. I think I'll pass on the Monkey bottoms.

 

[DesireeH]

Yes, I would suggest you pass. BTDT.

Thanks for saving me a little $$ guys. And here I was blaming you for my newly acquired

Wanted to say thanks too, I was looking at these also on ebay and considering getting a couple, but I'm glad I came here to see what you all had to say first.

Ok...massive editing to get my ducks in a row here:

The patchwork AIO I won *IS* a MB, and to be honest, I really like it. Decent workmomship, fits DS great, not too much leaking. (Like I said, we have yet to find a totaly bomb-proof-- or DS wet proof-system). Based on that dipe, I'd buy MB again.

And then I realized I did. In my fluffymail last week was a frogprint / red fleece MB that I won, and it is, to not mince words, AWFUL. The soaker is waaaay off center, the fit is terribly awkward, the fleece pilled hugely after one wash, and it leaks like a sieve. It does not look like it can possibly be sewn by the same person who sewed the patchwork AIO.

She left great feedback for me, and before I leave mine, I am going to contact her. I feel like she can make a great product-- I own one-- but the second dipe I purchased is so inconsistent with the first it's spookie. I honestly believe this WAHM wants to do the right thing-- I hope she does-- and I want to give her the chance.

My other thought is this thread should probably be moved to reviews, although it might get seen more here.

lets see the link to her auctions on ebay.

 

[melaniewb]

Yeah, I found inconsistencies with her diapers as well.

All I can think is "red butt":LOL :LOL :LOL

 

[IslandMamma]

So, I've tried e-mailing her twice (through e-bay and my own system) now and BOTH times the mail has been returned as "undeliverable" Grrrrr.

What I don't understand is given the general feeling here, how come her feedback is 100% positive?

 

[DesireeH]

I know one of those positive feedbacks was me......even though it wasnt a great product, I leave positive feedback the day I get the package for the most part....it was semi cute (minus the bad sew job) and she did ship it really fast. I hadnt even washed it or used it yet, PLUS I dont give negative feedback based on how the product works, but how the ebay deal (shipping, transaction in general) went.
