Review: MinkyBots Cloth Nappy

This review is from http://kiwicraftychemist.blogspot.com/2011/03/review-minkybots-cloth-nappy.html

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to review a cloth nappy from MinkyBots thanks to Kiwi Mummy Blogs.  I am already a cloth nappy user but as I generally sew my own I have very few branded cloth nappies in my stash and those that I do have were nearly all second hand.  So I eagerly awaited my fluffy mail and I can tell you it was well worth the wait!

The nappy that arrived is just gorgeous and very well made, and it's minky so it's soft and scrummy.  It came with two microfibre inserts and although I don't usually use microfibre, especially not on it's own, in the interest of the review I gave it a whirl.

The nappy I received is a med and it is a good fit on Miss M who is currently 8kg and 68cm long.  I like the fact that the thighs and waist can be adjusted accordingly, it takes account for Miss M's rather chubby wee thighs :-)   She isn't on the tightest setting so this would fit a longer leaner baby well, but she still has plenty of room to grow in it so I think this would be a good long lasting nappy from the perspective of fit.

Having used this nappy several times now I am more than happy to rave about it and recommend these to anyone looking for a stylish and functional pocket nappy.  I even found that the two inserts received lasted Miss M for 2-3h no problems, and the nappy stood up to the requisite poo explosion test!
At the bargain price of $21 for a minky pocket nappy and $3.50 per microfibre insert I would say they are a winner.

Review (Friday, October 29, 2010)

This review is from http://momtoablessing.blogspot.com/2010/10/minky-bots-review.html

I have to apologize to this mama I thought I had already put her review up but I guess I was wrong. Which is crazy cause I love the Diaper. Its so very soft I think I have become a fan of minky fabric.
We were sent a newborn minky pocket diaper for charlee to wear

I really really loved the fit of this diaper on charlee exspecially since she was a peanut at birth and it still fit her great even as she got bigger of course now almost 3 months later shes starting to grow out of it but for 3 months that diaper was one of the first grabbed and I would show it off to friends exspecially when showing it off to friends.  in fact my friends 2 year old picked it off the changing table and started rubbing it against her skin saaying how soft it was thank goodness the diaper was clean.


Charlees clothes stayed completly dry and no poop leaked out either which was also a plus.  and when you hang dry the diaper it dries pretty quickly.  I really hope Minky Bots keeps up the amazing job.  and that Helena knows how much shes loved.
