Nappies : Disposable

Pampers Baby Dry


Overall rating: 7.66

Pampers Baby DryIn a nutshell
"Very absorbant - my little boys both wee for England but their skin has never felt wet in them, even when the nappy was soaking and very heavy." "They're more expensive than the supermarket brands but definitely worth it - I've never found that Pampers nappies leak, so on that score they are perfect." "It may prick my conscience to use disposables but these remind me why I do - totally hassle-free and baby always comfortable." "Less bulky than Huggies though the tabs are a bit rough and can rub your baby's skin if you haven't fastened them properly." Others agreed that "the tabs often stick to my baby's skin" and complained of "a chemical smell" and "a lot of plastic". Another complaint was "the full nappy always ends up hanging round my son's knees". Whilst some thought them "too small around the waist" and "designed for long, thin babies rather than short, fat ones." buy it
