    coles disposables?

    So I bought a box because the packaging was slightly damanged making it 10 dollars cheaper than the huggies box for the same quantity of nappies. Having opened them, they look suspiciously like another brand of nappy i've used before (because of course coles buys the products of other companies and repackages them) though I don't remember which. Snugglers maybe? Babylove? I think it's babylove actually. Anyway, I haven't used them much as I've still got some huggies left but they don't seem too bad; they're obviously not as good as huggies but I had DD in one when I went out for a few hours and it was fine, the nappy was full and her skin wasn't irritated.

    Opinions?

    I think they're Babylove. I had to buy a pack the other week as I couldn't get my mcn to dry (it had been raining) I had to use them for overnight use a couple of times and I never had any leaks.

    I have used "you'll love coles" brand of nappies since Ashton came out of Cloth. I use them day and night and never have an issue with them even when Ashton has had bad diarrhea. Pretty sure they are baby love, as I used to use Baby Love with Lachlan.

    Love

    We love the You'll Love Coles ones as well Kathryn The unisex Coles branded ones are that great IMO.

    I was given some of the You'll love Coles ones. Don't know who makes them but they were pretty good. Aldi ones are better though and cheaper.

    We use the You'll love Coles unisex ones - 50 for about $15 and love them.

    We got the Coles Babylove nappies the last time they were on special (they have the Wiggles on them) and they're fine. Not quite as absorbent as the Huggies ones, but adequate. We won't need to go back either now, since DD has decided she's into TT!! Going down to one or two nappies a day is a dream!

    I've used the unisex ones, IMO I found them better than the babylove ones, they use babylove at DS's child care and they don't last the distance with him, but the coles ones do. They appear to be made by babylove as they are the same shape.
    The frog ones are woolies I think

    We use the You'll Love Coles nappies for FDC and at night. We've never had any problems with leakage.. and Claire is a champion wee machine.

    I dont think they're Babylove. I bought some babylove once as there were no YLC nappies left in Claires size and they were totally different nappies.

    I'm a huge fan of the You'll Love Coles nappies.
    I have had both boys in them from the time they grew out of huggies newborns until they are toilet trained and will do the same for the next one!
