How does this diaper work? Is it like Econobum or Flip, where you put a folded prefold/insert flat in, or diaper in a prefold and cover?

Yes, we use a ozocozy prefold in ours. It's very easy and personally way better than an AIO because if your cover doesn't get soiled you can put a new prefold in there and you should be good to go.

It's just like the Econobum or Flip covers - you can use either a prefold or an insert inside of it. We found that the Thirsties covers were really great for when our baby was very small, because they have extra coverage around the leg holes. But, he's already grown out of them (by 7 months).

Can do both ways depending on size of your insert. My baby is 7.5 months old and between sizes with the ozocozy inserts. For the small size prefold I lay the prefold flat inside a size 2 thirstie. For the larger size prefold, I lay baby down on both and do a loose diapering with the prefold because it is still big on him, then button up the thirstie over it & adjust the cover. When baby is bigger the size 2 prefold will lay flat inside of the size 2 cover.

These are pretty awesome, btw - one of the best cloth diapering inserts on the market. This product is an insert - you lay in inside a diaper cover like this bumgenious one: BumGenius Freetime All in One Cloth Diaper - Snap - Grasshopper - One Size . Assuming your child has only wet the diaper, you can just pull out the wet insert and put in a dry one, reusing the cover. This means you only need one cover for ever 3 or 4 changings. When your child goes number 2, the mess will likely spread onto the inside of the cover, and you'll want to wash both. If you are serious about cloth diapering, get a diaper sprayer: OsoCozy Cloth Diaper Sprayer . I wouldn't do cloth diapers without one.

Yep, it's a cover, I even have used them with Flip inserts. It only has a flap in front, and they actually don't recommend using it, but it's good for when you want to have it ready for your husband to use and keep the prefold in place.

This diaper cover has two snaps on each tab. The front of the diaper has two rise settings and each rise has three snaps. As far as velcro, i havent tried it with this brand, but i have tried it with two other brands. I do not like velcro. It wears out over time and if it becomes unfasted in the wash it snags onto things and can really mess other diapers up. Hope this helps.

No, this is for a cover only. Rumparooz makes these PUL covers (which I love btw, great fit, no leaks) to go over fitted, prefolds, and etc. They also make a pocket diaper, which probably comes with inserts. This is just the PUL cover though.

To be honest, I thought the same thing and bought some myself, but never used them. I think you use them on the insert and then put the cover on? Never tried it that way. I do use the snappies on the other cloth diapers we have from our second child.

This is an all-in-one diaper, so the 'insert' or absorbancy is already sewn in. No need to buy anything else!

It doesn't really 'fold', it kinda rolls up and you secure it with the Velcro strap. The two plush sides prevent you from folding it. It will not fit in a diaper bag, but the strap allows you to carry it like one. I love it though. It keeps my little one secure and it has the cover that goes over the handle of the cart, which is great because that's the first place my baby puts his mouth. It also has two straps to attach toys to keep them occupied. The downside is that it will not fit in a high chair because of the padded bumpers on each side.

You have to wash the prefolds every time. You can get several diaper changes out of a cover, until you get a major poo. The rule of thumb is 3 or 4 prefolds for every cover. PS The econobum prefolds are my favorite so far. The cover is so-so.

I use a single hemp insert inside Thristies covers. Works wonderfully. With cloth diapers you should change after every wet, and one insert should be plenty absorbent for one wet. My baby is 4 months old and one wet leaves only half the insert wet, so it theoretically could hold two wets from a baby her size/age, but more likely only one wet for older babies and toddlers. LOVE this system because it is sooo TRIM under clothing!

It's similar to a child's training underwear, with what appears to be a moisture resistant outer layer. It's a one piece moderately padded diaper with Velcro fasteners that attach around the dog's waist. There is no disposable diaper insert or no pad insert that fits into the diaper shell. I suppose it would have worked for our dog, if it had fit and she wasn't such a contortionist, adept at quickly wriggling out of it.

Yes! You can trifold them and lay them in a flip cover just like the flips organic inserts. You can also stuff pocket diapers wth them, folded into thirds, or snappi/pin them on a baby. Check out YouTube for tutorials about how to fold a prefold :-)

I assume the reason for this is to provide extra protection. You can create a fold where it's needed for boy or girl BUT I agree. I think it's a pain. These were my least favorite diaper but with and extra stuffing did well for night time. I like grovia but hate they are made in China so alas I resorted to sewing my own. If you can handle it there are some cool wool covers out there you can lay a prefold in them. Those were the best of all.

From day 1 I mixed up the inserts and they all work the same. After a few hours just like a disposable, u had better change the diaper. The large size will serve u better for future use.

For this diaper, you are correct. The inserts are sewn in. Bumgenius makes diapers that you stuff the pocket with something absorbant and those you would be able to line dry the covers and tumble dry the inserts.

I had no leaks. I agree with trying different folds. When I was new to cloth diapering, I found that leaks were almost always caused by my folding techniques. Trifold is the easiest but does not contain blowouts.

Personally I do not. I trifold them and set them in a size one diaper cover... Works great.
