Ok I've just got my dirty little mitts on one.

I didn't notice any problem with the tabs, they just seemed like any other tabs, stretchy, but not overly so. They didn't cross over with DS and everyone knows how skinny he is!!

The gussets are good - very impressed with those.

Absorbency - I didn't even pre-wash it and I got 3 hours out of it, and only changed it because he pooped, not because he wet through. And this is a kid who outwets an itti in an hour and a half. So thumbs up on that.

The only thumbs down for me - the top of the nappy kept folding inwards, so the velcro across the top would rub against his belly all the time, I don't think it particularly bothered him, but it bothered me that it was there rubbing - can't be good yeah? I don't have this problem with say, my bumg's, happy heiny's or green kids, so I'm not sure its a "shape" problem - more its a design problem.

Interesting to see if other people have the same problem too. I'm yet to try it on DD - cos its been pooped in!! lol
