Yep exactly what Leckert said.
I'm not a fan of velcro purely because no matter how good their washing tabs are, you can guarantee one will come off and snag other stuff in the wash. I do like it for tinies but the washing thing outweighs the like.

I like SS nappies due to their adjustability. They were great for my big bellied skinny legged kid and now for my chunky thighed skinny bellied kid.
I also found with GF higher rise was great for boys and lower was fine for girls.
