This nappy was used on my little boy every night and it was fantastic. Never leaked, economical as it fitted him from 9 months to 2 when he was potty trained. saved a fortune not using disposables. definitely invest in one of these even if only for nighttime.

I love these nappies. They are really funky colours and styles. I've got a great Harry Potter one and another. You can stuff the pockets with anything, to make them more absorbant or more streamlined. The pockets dry quickly, the inserts depend on what you use. They are more reliable and leak free if the insert is nice and flat as they can wrinkle and wick moisture if overstuffed. They seem to last quite well and are beautifully made.

I have been using a slinki minki for two days now and I am so impressed with it. It is ideal for people with very wriggly babies. I stuff mine with bamboo terry which is less bulky than a cotton terry, though still gives a big bum. For daytime I put my baby in babylegs or bigger sized trousers rolled up. vest extenders are useful things for fitting a vest over minkis. I think the big bum look is so cute in these nappies that I just don't mind that it is so big -good padding for all those bumps any way. The minki dries in next to no time and so far, no leaks. The biggest plus for me is that the aplix can't scratch bzby's tummy or thighs on minkis like some wraps tend to do. I'll be investing in a few more pairs, i just wish i had used them from the start!

Great nappies - soft, snuggly and you can add as much boosting as you could ever need.

They are made of 2 layers of thick fleece though, so by the time they are boosted they ARE bulky (even the slinkis) - ideal night nappies. My 4 year old is now in XL minki yoyos for bed.

This is a "fab funky nappy" with a "handy pocket which you can pad out to your level of absorbency" and won praise for reliability, so much so that many reviewers used them "specifically for night times". "The cut and fit are superb" and "they are a nice shape and trim fitting even when massively stuffed for overnight use". "My daughter has never suffered with nappy rash" and "after six months of daily use the nappies still look brand new". They have "fabulous fabrics for showing off". "Sometimes my daughter looks so good, it seems a shame to dress her!"
