I have a few I got 2nd hand and they were great with my DS. Didn't start using them till he was over 12 months though. The wider-crotch pockets suited him as he's relatively slim. My DD needs trimmer ones like IBs
I'm a huge fan, they've just always proved really reliable for us. They're not trim on the younger ones though - you can fold the front down, but the crotch is rather wide. Not wider than a terry flat maybe though? Dunno.
Why not get one and try it, and you can get more if you like them? From memory, NN aren't too sluggish with shipping? Plus - they seem really decently priced even when not on sale (compared to other pockets anyway!).
I love them. They're a brilliant travel nappy - we took a couple on our 16 day camping epic and they were the best! You can stuff them with anything - prefolds, folded terry flat (great if you go on holiday and forget your snappis ) hand towel, daddy's undies (oh yes, it happened. We were desperate) They are velcro, so dad proof, and the fit works on our little love.
I wouldn't have a whole stash full, but I definitely like having them.
mmm...I think I will give them a miss for the moment. I really like the snaps on the rise of nappies as I find it hard to fold tops down, particularly with my wriggle pot. When he is a bit bigger I might look into the GK as they seem to have a good reputation by your posts.
I used GK most of the time for DS1 and loved them. They did leak in the early days, but were fine once he was bigger (maybe 4 months+). But, I have actually been pretty disappointed with how they have worn. I had to replace all the leg elastics to use them for DS1 & the PUL faded along the top of the nappies. The past few weeks, I have noticed that the waistband elastic is wearing out too - so they are not staying up very well anymore!
