Nature Babycare

This brand has consistently been the best. They are leak free, don't cause a rash and are less guilt inducing than the others available from the shop. I know they cost a bit more but when I've had to use other, big name and supermarket brand, nappies they have leaked and made my DD's bits sore. Real nappies were great when she was really little but I wouldn't use a different disposable brand.

So I'm too lazy to make my baby a cloth bum, what alternatives are there? Eco nappies....except they are not that good at being nappies.

I found that they leak and they gave my baby nappy rash (we changed her every 2 hours in the day but she'd still go a bit pink).

Very disappointed

I got these because I was trying to be all green and environmentally friendly, but they really are just utter crap. The tabs don't stick properly and they leak like billy-oh. Plus, they cost a lot more than other much better nappies. Avoid Avoid Avoid.

We have used these on our daughter since she was born 2 years ago and would recommend them. I couldnt use a non bio nappy - just think of all those nappies in land fill for years and years.... We've been very happy with them :-)

Not recommended. V disappointed as wanted to switch to an eco brand. Bought a double pack - one pack unusable as one of the frilly sides had been seemingly superglued down, so they either ripped the leg or the inner lining when opening. Used the other pack, and had to deal with lots of poo & wee leg leaks, so much so we've had to change her clothes up to three times a day. To top it all off, she's developed an extremely bad nappy rash, so we've had to do an emergency run to the shops to get Pampers.

We used these for the whole time our son was in nappies, he didn't have nappy rash once, they probably aren't absorbant as a pampers but then who really wants to leave their child in the same nappy for more than 4 hours unless its nightime. we rarely had any leaks and in the very hot summer they didn't seem to make him hot I guess it was due to the natural fibres.

I strongly recommend not using these nappies. They just aren't absorbent enough to protect your babies skin. We used them on our son when he was first born. Within days he developed really really bad nappy rash, as well as thrush and a bacterial infection which had to be treated with antibiotics. As soon as we switched to pampers his nappy rash cleared up and he's never had nappy rash or thrush since (now 16 months old).

Good nappies although they still use gel in them, they do at least avoid plastics in the packaging. They come up a bit small so if you find they leak you may need to go up a size.

We were using these at night, with reusables in the day. The trouble is I got fed up of washing the sleeping bag at least every other day after the nappy leaked.

It wasn't always leaking at the legs. Sometimes DD wriggled so much that the tab tore leaving the nappy hanging off one leg.

Did like the fact they're plain though.

Like someone else we've moved onto sainsbury's Eco which (touch wood) have been more reliable.

A bit disappointing as not a great fit and quite leaky. Also not so cheap. I prefer bambo nature nappies.

Really lovely. Soft, stretchy, seem to be comfortable. No leakage.
A little on the expensive side, but all these products are. I still buy them, though as I feel less guilty at putting them in the bin for landfill as they will degrade and are made from natural products, not plastics/crude oil. So if I was able to have a peace of mind score, I'd put 10.

Had high hopes for these but too many leaks (including poo-tastrophes) have made me reluctantly steer clear. Sainsbury's Eco nappies have worked much better for my DD.

Disappointing - really wanted to use these for their green credentials but they just leaked, leaked, leaked for my son.

i'm using these full time now as dd has outgrown her cloith nappies. we love them! i have tried the free pampers/huggies you get with bounty etc and i dont find then any better at all than these eco nappies. when dd was little and ebf i didnt find any nappies which would contain the poo! now she is weaned i've not had a single leak and one of these is enough for 12 hours sleep with no leaks!!

i will be using these until i potty train dd.

another thing i like about then is the total lack of tacky pictures on the front!

I use these at night with my daughter she is in reusables in the day, but as other reviews have said they are not very good at keeping poo in particulat the explosive kind which my daughter is inclined to do. They are good for the environment though and she doesn't go for a poo at night so thats why i like these.

They make you feel good about environment, but they don't keep that poo in! Disappointed, as would have loved to be green.

I tried these nappies for a couple of weeks and was very disappointed. When you're used to nice soft pampers these seem really hard and scratchy. My son consistently woke up with a wet back because the nappy had leaked. Also once the tabs are unstuck you can't refasten them - not good when you have a wriggling baby and need to readjust.

I've used these for 2.5 years now (from newborn size) and have always been really pleased with them. As some reviewers said, there have been a few design changes which haven't been great, but I've found customer service very responsive about this and have been sent vouchers to compensate if a batch wasn't great. Of all the nappies I've bought, I've had 3 dodge packs. I know this isn't ideal, however that's the only downside to a nappy that is much more eco friendly and I feel better putting it on my child than a more chemical version. I've not had any bad experiences with exploding poos etc. and really do recommend these.

Very good nappy which has just got better with improved fastening. Bulkier than other disposables but also seems to hold moisture better. Delighted that it is an 'environmentally friendly' disposable option.

I found these impossible - the tabs just wouldn't line up or stick. Gave the rest away...

Their range used to be fantastic but they have now changed the design of the tabs and they no longer fit well, stay put or contain poo. The tabs snap off in your hand (has happened three times now) and my toddler can now easily open them. Why or why did they have to change a design that was brilliant?

I have always loved these nappies and could not sing their praises highly enough. BUT they have recently changed the design of the tabs and they are now rubbish, the tabs don't stick properly and easily come undone. They are much easier for my toddler to remove and the the tabs snap and poo is everywhere - as I experienced this morning!! I never once had a problem with them before this change in design - what a shame a great product ruined.

I have been using these since our son was 2 months old, and find them excellent. I am still wondering about reusables, and these salve my conscience in the meantime!

They are a nice fit, a bit bulkier than Pampers but still fitting fine under clothes. His skin feels dry even when the nappy is full and apart from the occasional BF runny poo (which I also got with Pampers), there have been no leaks. Very little nappy rash (less than with Pampers) and he appears to be comfy although it is hard to tell!!

It is great not to have cartoon characters on a nappy as well!

They are available at Boots, Mothercare and Sainsbury's and are the same price as Pampers. We tend to stock up when they are on special offer so they work out reasonable price.

We did find that the sizes were a bit larger than Pampers, so when he was in Pampers 3 he was still too small for Nature Baby 3, but this was not a problem.

All in all, very pleased with them.

A good choice for those seeking an eco-friendly alternative to Pampers etc... and are readily available from Boots etc... but not as good as the Wiona brand of disposable nappies which I've been using since DS was born a month ago and are 75% bio-degradable with the remaining 15% being deemed 'environmentally neutral' although I'm not really sure what that means. However, the down side is that they're only available from selected websites such as bumpto3.com (you can at least claim the Mumsnet 10% discount) and can't be bought in any of the well known stores, as far as I'm aware. DS has not had a hint of nappy rash since we started using them and their absorbency is fantastic. We've only had one leak in six weeks and that was because he needed to move on to the next size up.

I started using nature baby care nappies just after i had my second child as a friend recommended them to me, i tried them a couple of years earlier with my first baby but found the lack of elasticated sides a bit of a problem, However they have recently changed in their design, The are not quite as flexible as pampers active fit, but there flexiable enough. I used active fit with my eldest and tried huggies aswell, she suffered alot with nappy rash. My youngest is now 14 months and whilst she has some dry skin problems (not just in the nappy area) she has only ever had nappy rash once and that was quite mild, I think it is vastly due to the natural and breathable materials used. I would recommend to anyone, They keep my daughter dry day and night, even when quite full in the morning, they dont break down.

I love nature babycare nappies. I have tried other brands but these are just as reliable, comfortable and added advantage of being made from natural materials (corn.) Also, they are cheaper than pampers and I feel much better about using them as are so much better for the environment, being 100% biodegradeable. I just wish the supermarket giants sold them, as neither Asda nor Tesco do. I now get them from a local supplier free delivery!!

Nature Babycare nappy pants are great! Just like their nappies they dont leak at all. I use them on a night now for my little girl as she's potty trained during day and they have NEVER leaked! no smells, rashes or leaks. There's a really good website www.nappies-direct.com which send them out by courier all over the country. they do all the nature babyvare range. I'd recommend the nappies to anyone and they now do a biiodegradable scented wipe too.

These are excellent I use them for my potty trained son at night. Occasionally a very wet nappy will leak but that could be the same for any brand used at nighttime. Very easy to get on a wriggling toddler and he can pull them down easily when he wants to use his potty. They are nice and soft and unplasticky. Availabilty is an issue - not in smaller stores or some supermarkets. Mainly biodegradable which is a great reason for using them. The pack wrapping is supposedly compostable, but it does take some time to breakdown, ie after the rest of the compost heap has!

These nappies are improving - I'm now using them with my second child. They still leak a bit more than Pampers and the waist isn't as flexible so they can cut into the top of your baby's thighs if you don't put them on right. Availability can be a problem as they're not usually available in smaller stores or some supermarkets. However they feel fresher for your baby due to less plastic and are largely biodegradable which is why I use them. Also they don't have (pointless?) pictures printed on which must also be more environmentally friendly as no extra ink is being used. I also use the nappy bags and wipes which are great.

I really like these nappies. We generally use reuseables now but we used to use these between 0-3 and then 6-11 months and we still use these at night. They really are the best disposable nappy at containing explosive poos. We've only had a couple of leaks but they're much better than more famous brands. Recently we have had a couple of leaks of wee if we didn't change him fairly soon in the morning, but then the nappy will have been worn for 10-11 hours straight. I love that they're mostly biodegradeable and they're what we'll use when we go away on holiday.

A brilliant nappy, had very few leaks in two years, good for the environment. All round satisfaction

I originally didn't like these when my son was very small - I thought that they were too stiff and papery, but I have used then from size 2 onwards as his main nappy and I'm very pleased that they are performant and are less damaging to the environment. Only a couple of negatives: 1)They are not that great for night-use because they soak right through to the outer layer. 2) They are a bit harsh in hot, sticky weather - the papery texture can be rough against skin, especially around the waistband.

No leaks, no nappy rash, but they do seem smaller than the moltex equivalents. On special at boots, or order in bulk with an online company and get a bigger discount! Good VFM.

These are as easy to use as the regular non-degradable brands, slightly less absorbant but this is never an issue of actual leaking even overnight, just become a bit bulky. More expensive but worth it if there is less impact on the environment. Wish Tescos sold them though, only Sains and Waitrose where I leave. Am generally happy with them for DD, have been using since she was 9 months, now 15 months, no probs with rash.

I think these are much better than other nappies and although they are a bit more expensive, they hold lots adn don't need changing as often.

Friends of mine use Huggies and I hear stories of leaky nappies all the time regardless of the age of the child using them. These only leak with newborn milky poo - which leaks no matter which nappy is used.

The only downside is that the waist isn't as elastic as pampers or huggies, but since they don't seem to leak for me, it's not a problem.

I used a mixture of real and eco friendly disposables but when it came time for potty training, these pull ups really have been a help at night time. As far as I am aware, there are no other disposable pull ups that are even vaguely environmentally friendly. I use them because they are also the only ones that my little girl does not have a sensitive reaction to - other brands bring her out in a huge rash all over her bottom. They are cheap, easy to use and really effective. They are easy to pull up and down which means my little girl can go to the toilet by herself at night and get her nappy pants back on. The only downside is that only Waitrose stock these nappy pants in Bristol, although Sainsburys and Boots stock the normal nappy version.

We use cloth nappies but use these for emergencies and occasionally on holidays. I find them very good, though I don't have much experience of other disposables. I choose them as they're 70% biodegadable. I've tried 100% biodegradable ones (Moltex) but these are much more absorbent and reliable, though not as reliable as cloth nappies.

A great, green alternative to Pampers and the like. I have found them easy to use and reliable, and my baby is comfortable and dry, even overnight. They are a bit more expensive, but worth it. I wouldn't use anything else. About to start potty training however, and wish there was a pull up version!

These nappies are great. Being 70% biodegradable it salves our concience about all that land-fill. And not using cotton (extremely environmentally unfriendly to grow) but corn starch - they are a real green option on the disposable nappy front.

I find they work as well as any of the other nappies. My baby sleeps through the night wearing them and has never had nappy rash.

At my supermarket they are the same price as Pampers so why buy anything else?

these nappies are brilliant!!! - I can't understand why more mothers are using them. Disopable nappies without the guilt of damaging the enviroment! Okay so they cost slightly more - but isn't it worth it for your childs future enviroment? They are comfortable, don't leak and most importantly are stuffed with chemicals like all the other leading brands - so much better for your childs skin. You will find them in Sainsburys, Boots and Waitrose.

These nappies are fantastic, we have only had one leak with these nappies in the 17 months we have been using them. We have used other nappies, and these without doubt were far the best, and my son is a very heavy wetter. They have never leaked poo, unlike some other leading brands and are no more expensive than leading brands. My son has never had nappy rash using them. Night time use is not a problem and pull up's are available (from Waitrose). I would choose these nappies over others even without the 'greener' factor.

I have only ever used these from the day baby was born. No nappy rash, ever. Last all night no problem. Baby never notices that they are full. Make sure you use the biodegardable bags with them to allow them to degarde and don't put them in a rubbish bag! Only had a few nappy disasters, probably parent error. Use water to wash baby bottom not wipes unless you have to. I recommend them if you would like to help save the planet a bit without getting a hair shirt....

These fit DD better than Huggies but they are less absorbant and now she is a year I have to use another brand at night. However for daytime use they are great and are better on her skin than others I tried - she has Eczema. Their pull ups are also good and I alternate between the two.
Same price as the other big brands so worth a try!

We've used these from when our little boy was born and have been really pleased with them. Their 'green' credentials helped salve my conscience for never really getting to grips with reusables(!) and they have been reliable day and night and seem to be comfy. When we've had leaks (in the early days) I just moved up to the next size and it seemed to do the trick. Our son was a fairly slim baby and around the 50th centile on the charts; I've heard they are not so good on 'chubby' babies but don't know if that's the case for all?

I find these an excellent choice of nappies. They are still disposable, better for the environment, easy to use, and the nappy sacks and wipes are genuinely fragrance free. Someone earlier commented on their absobent features. I found the opposite. My daughter has been using these since she was born and we have only had to revert to pampers twice (due to local stores being out of stock) and found that Nature Babycare were far more absorbent, our baby sleeps right through the night and has from an early age and we have only had 1 overflowing nappy in over 4 months. The price is also identical to Huggies and Pampers. My only gripe with these nappies is that very few stores stock them so we tend to buy our nappy products online now so that we do not run out.

Love them! They feel more breathable than the other disposables - less plastic, more paper. They don't go lumpy and I never had problems with gel leaking. If you change them regularly and don't leave them saturated, you shouldn't have any issues with leaks or nappy rash. No Disney characters - bliss!

The Nature Babycare nappies are great. They are made from maize, are biodegradable, have elasticated sides for a really good fit and are totally reliable. Used the nappies and am now on the pull ups. An absolutely brilliant disposable nappy - why use anything else?

Not all that green really given that they're bleached and do contain the dreaded crystals- certainly not as green as Moltex - but slightly better than using standard disposables. We've had no problems with performance. Agree that they do go a bit hard and lumpy after a while.

My daughter got on well with these. We gave up the battle to keep using reusables when she could reliably remove them at six months. As they say in the film Madagascar "If you have any poo - fling it now!" The Nature pants work well, rarely leak and there's no more screaming at change time. Mostly!

We used these from birth with my 2.5 year old and are now using the pull up versions at night time. We found them to be very good and much better than the pampers/huggies type which seemed to have so much plastic and stitching etc that my son always got rashes and marks from them. I don't think they are as absorbent maybe and you have to change them a bit more often perhaps but we thought that was a good thing as they are slightly closer to reusable nappies and make you/the child more aware of wet/dry etc which is useful for potty training later on. We have had absolutely no problems or leaks with them. Will be using them again next time. Only slight pain is it can be hard to get hold of them in supermarkets sometimes as they don't stock many but it is getting better.

They are a greener disposable option, but they are a bit of a square fit and do produce a bit of nappy rash. I wish someone could make a rival version!

They're absolutely fine (I mean, they are a NAPPY, there is not that much that can go wrong here). Also you get to be part of the Nature nappy wearing set-the "oh i usually use reusables but keep these in my bag for emergencies and to dole out to hapless friends" sort. Its always nice to feel superior.

ps I really don't feel qualified to rate nappies on comfort, I'm afraid.

I bought these because they were biodegradable and therefore greener and stayed with them because they never caused nappy rash unlike pampers and huggies. The second size up did seem to be a strange hybrid of size 1 and 3 though!

Salve your conscience in part by switching to these disposables with 70% recyclable/biodegradable materials. They "fit well," "don't smell of chemicals" and "are as easy to use as Pampers or Huggies". If there's a downside it's their absorbency: "They do tend to fill up quite quickly and go lumpy" and "I wouldn't trust them not to leak overnight". Others warned of "persistent nappy rash" unless you "change them very frequently - more than other brands". Nevertheless: "The guilt-free choice if you go with disposables".

They're not the cheapest nappies - but at least they're a bit greener than the main brands and we found them reliable and easy to use

They are good for the environment with 70% of it biodegradable, but, they are not as good as pampers.
I will still used Natures because it makes me feel less bad abotu buying disposables and hopefully not clogging up the landfills for so long, but they are not as good as Pampers.
Also now that my little girl is 11 months and very active it is a bit of a nightmare changing her bum, it would be so nice to use a Nature pull up if they existed.

Having found reusable nappies bulky for my baby and time consuming for me, I felt nature boy and girl were a good alternative; you feel less guilty using a disposable when you know it is made from recycled meterial.The nappy sacs are biodegradeable which is a bonus too. Overall, they are sligtly more expensive than other brands of disposable, but they are worth it as the fit, comfort and absorbancy are superior. I would highly reccomend them.

I liked the fact that these were "friendly" products, but the tabs were fiddly to use and the nappies quite bulky. Reasonably reliable.

As eco friendly as you can get with a disposable...and no leaking.

Have been using them for 2.5 yrs, they have changed the way the nappy is made over that time a few times, now better absorbancy than tesco's and more comfortable.

I have 3 children & Nature Boy & Girl have only been available for the 3rd - I find them to be just as good as any other disposable nappy I have used, without the chemicals other nappies have (and I worry about the long term effects of these)and they are better for the environment than other disposable brands. My son has never had nappy rash.

As someone who would have liked to have used reusables but realised I was just too lazy to do the extra washing, these make me feel I am doing something towards helping the environment. Although only 70% biodegradable, combined with buying the 100% biodegradble wipes and nappy sacks, it does help ! Price wise they are no different to leading brands. The main problem is their availability which involves a trip to Waitrose (or Boots or Sainsburys).

feel natural against my babies skin.

a good compromise between resusables and the convinience and slimline fit of disposables

Its fantastic to use disposables without the guilt about the environment as I have tried to persevere with washables but hate all the washing. I cant believe that they are actually cheaper than my old choice of brand. They are slightly less absorbent than premium nappies but that only adds up to maybe one extra change per day and are still better thatn some of the supermarket own brand nappies that I have tried. I have to admit that I still use my old brand at night as these nappies wouldnt go 12 hours and my baby is very wet at night. I would recommend to anyone who is concious about the environment.

they dont smell - like the usual disposables. and they do their bit for the environment. they look nice too and arent plasticy, which must be bad for baby - i think the babies are fresher in them.

Just as good as conventional nappies (worked better than Pampers), but with less chemicals and much less environmental impact. The guilt-free choice if you go with disposables.

LO's been in these for 3 months now and there's been no sign of the dreaded nappy rash :)

Have used them almost from day one and have had no problems at all after 16 months. The fact they are 70% recyclable eases my conscience at no extra cost or hassle.

Very good nappies, especially as the babies get older, worth paying the extra to feel less guilty about environmental damage of disposables.

good for the environment as made from 70% biodegradeable products. However, are very papery to use, quite firm and crispy. Dont have the nice stretchy waistband of the leading brands. Do leak out of the legs at night but no day leaks.

Fab Fab Fab, my baby has only ever used these nappies (is now 6mths old) Using these does not make me feel guilty as I would feel if I used the normal makes .. They have been very reliable so far...

Not very impressed. Although a good fit and easy to use, they leak! One night use and the whole cot needed changed. Really need to change every 2 hours, therefore using more of them than you would another leading brand so although quite cheap in the first place, by the time you have changed more often, not very cost effective.

Occasional leaks if we're not quick enough to change them, but they make me feel better about having not chosen cloth nappies for the early days. They fit my slim legged newborn much better than Pampers did.

I really like these. They're a bit papery and can rustle a little, but are far less plasticky and sweaty than 'traditional' disps. my baby is on the small side, but they fit beautifully on the legs without pinching and have never ever leaked, even bf poo.

I don't understand why more people don't use these and why if the technology is available for 70% biodegradable nappies, some of the larger manufacturers don't start making them. A great compromise for the mum who has a conscience, but can't quite manage re-usable nappies.

No good. If they get too full of wee they split and the gel goes everywhere. Also can't get a decent fit, even on slender children, the nappy seems skimpy.

Very neat design but leaked at sides alot and have no stretch or give in them. Perhaps best fro newborns as slim, lightweight and odour free.

These are great. They are the only nappies that don't give my son nappy rash. They last well over night and I don't even change him as often as I have to when he has used Pampers or other brands. They feel lumpy when they are full but that is neither here nor there really. He does need to be in a big size though - if he outgrows them then he leaks a little wee although never poo.

I have used these since birth for my 2 year old twins and have a had no problems with them. No leaks or nappy rash. I used huggies for my older daughter and she constantly suffered from nappy rash

Excellent nappy. Need to be slung quite low to avoid newborn shoot up.

Never experienced any leakage or nappy rash with this product.Thoroughly recommend this environmental option - buy in bulk as they go out of stock very quickly!

Really good nappy and would buy for each child.

Using them from birth (4 wks early) till now (7 months), we have only had a few small leaks during very runny poo periods. I love the fact that Nature nappies don't look and feel as synthetic as normal disposables, and they're not covered in gaudy pictures! I would hate to have to use another disposable.

not very soft and a bad fit. better to get the moltex

I have found this to be just as good as the major brands, if not better, and I can feel smug using them nowing they are more biodegradable.

They are great.
I would use them all the time. They are much kinder to the environment, so better for everyone. They don't contain chemicals so much better for my child.
They should be widely availble to everyone. Highly recommended.

Soft and breathable - better for babies skin and better for the environment!

Ok they don't fit as well as the well known brands but they are much better for the environment and my conscience! Obviously you can only use them when the washing machine has broken :)

It makes you feel good to know that you are not polluting that much. I find them quite reliable, my children never had rashes caused by these nappies.

I've used them for my two boys (2,3yrs)and have had no problems with nappy rash. They can leak but it's a small price to pay considering that most other nappies will still be around when your child becomes an OAP!! An economical choice if you can't go down the reusable nappy route and the only environmental choice if you don't want a nappy mountain landfill near you! Don't forget to dump the 'contents' of the nappy into the loo before you bin it. I don't understand why all nappies aren't made of recyclable/biodegradable materials - it's an industry about children with no thought for the future! Sorry about the rant!

excellent - just as good as the major names for a very similair price but better for the environment. My daughter has them on overnight and rarely leaks

We have used these for the past 3 years on 2 kids - not once have they leaked. They are nice and un-plasticky and a good compromise if you don't want to go for reusables.

They are as eco friendly as you can get without going as far as using reusable nappies. If you want to use disposables use these!

My boys have both used these with no leaks and no rashes. They do not smell chemically which I really notice with the main brands. I would recommend these to anyone!

I would love to use eco friendly disposables but the insert here is like cardboard and seems to be uncomfortable for the girls. Also I have to change them every other wee as they complain. Not sure using twice as many recycled nappies is any kinder to the environment than reliable ordinary ones.

Best compromise between convenience and environmental guilt! Not as absorbant as the big brands - sleeping bag often damp in the morning. But fine for daytime/frequent changes. Less 'fitted' thsn big brands, and somewhat harsher material, so seems to catch/rub at top of thighs more.

no problems with leaks at all and less nappy rash than pampers

The answer for all of us mums that can't quite go through the slog of reuseable nappies. No funny gel bits left behind on your babies bottom. Keeps my heavy drinking boy dry easily through the night. When I have used traditional nappies I have been less than impressed with the comparable results. May be a fluke but I can't help thinking the lack of chemicals has helped keep my son free of nappy rash for two years from a newborn!!!!

I like these nappies as they helped to stop my son having nappy rash as they are not plastic and are not as "sweaty". I have very rarely had any leaks even after a good 12 hours overnight with my 2 year old.
owever, I do find the sides a bit hard for my new babies dlicate skin and they are not as easy to put on as huggies etc as they don't have stretchy sides. Much better for the environment though!

A disposable nappy that doesn't reek when you baby has a wee!

nice for the eco-conscious among us. not as flexible as some other nappies but they do the job

If you're going to use disposables then these are great. At least you feel slightly better about what your nappy mountain is doing to the planet as they are vaguely environmentally friendly and they contain less chemicals which is better for your baby too. I mix and match these with reusables which works for us. I've tried Pampers on occasion and I did like their stretchy waistband but when all the pros and cons are compared would always go for these instead. I had a few leakage problems but then changed to the next size up and these went away. And they look pretty cute too, for disposables!

I've tried just about every nappie on the market these turned out to be the best for my baby.

i have used these nappies since my son was born. he is now 20 months. i have found they are very reliable, and very absorbant. in fact, more so than huggies or pampers. my son has only had nappie rash once. and they are mostly biodegradeable. so why not give them a try , and help to save your child from a country full of nappie mountains

These nappies are excellent I have used them since birth for my twin boys and had only a few leaks (no more than any one using other brands), they don't feel as soft as many of the leading brands but this has never been an issue as they soften once on, generally now the boys are almost 2yrs we use 3 nappies each a day again no more than average and the big plus is you are NOT CLOGGING UP LANDFILLS as they are 70% bio-degradable.

Beats all other disposable brands by far as it is 70% biodegradable.
When not using real nappies I always use these.
I have never had any problems with them. My Daughters both seemed happy with them.

Nice nappies which don't smell of chemicals. Good overnight too.

The most environmentally conscious nappies we could find (tried washables without success). Never had nappy rash (though Papmers caused it within 3 nappies!). Seem pretty comfortable and certainly don't seem to leak any more than other brands from talking to friends. Only gripes: no money-saving multipacks and the tabs are quite stiff and can rub if you put the nappy on badly.

They're fantastic! 70% biodegradable, comfortable, and they never leak. I used to use huggies, which, in the morning, would have soaked through to his sleeping bag. I've never had that trouble with nature boy and girl. the only down-side is that they don't have elasticated tabs, like huggies and pampers, but do have stretchy backs and fronts.

Definitely eases your conscience as you see your rubbish piling up. Smells and feels much more natural than some of the leading brand disposables (especially the newborn ranges) although now the babies are getting bigger they do feel slightly bulkier than pampers for example. They have always managed to contain all of the explosions (even when we've been waiting for it for several days!) And they're nice and plain too (no horrible bright coloured animals, just some discreet little leaves!)

The only nappy my son can use without leakage or a nappy rash! Really surprised that some mums reckon they leak and give nappy rash.

I find also that I have to change him much less frequently using this brand.

And of course there is the added advantage that they are a bit better for the enviroment.

Shame that they tend to be a bit more expensive though.

they are the best choice given the worries about degradability of standard nappies while wanting to avoid the bulkiness and hassle of washables - downside is I found them too bulky for newborns and not so effective in the very largest size; they are quite stiff and can get lumpy - but the baby doesn't get so steamy hot in them either which seems healthier

A bit costly but given the environmental impact well worth the extra money. Great accessories. Look out for the biodegradeable nappy sacks and excellent baby wipes in the same range. Not always available for sale. Waitrose stock these and larger branches of Boots. Mothercare now does the Nappies in their catalogue.

They have no crappy chemicals in them - I got fed up with that gel stuff turning up on baby's bum, knowing that it is some horrible chemical. I use them for my second child who is now 1, and have found them to be as reliable as the main and own brand nappies that I tried out on my first child. Plus they are biodegradable, which is the secondary but also very important great thing.

i think these are great nappies although they were not fantastic in the first few weeks when there are lots of loose breast milk poos. i completely disagree with the comments about nappy rash and find that my son develops nappy rash in any other nappies, i believe it is because of the chemicals inpampers etc.

They are the only enviromentally friendly nappy available on the high street. Boots and Sainsburys stock them. I have tried the first 3 sizes and have only had 1 leak in 3 months. They absorb really well and keep everything inside without being too tight around the thighs. I appreciate the convienience of disposables whilst trying to do the right think for the enviroment.

They don't smell of chemicals - never had a problem with leaks

have held in the most explosive of watery breast fed poo but only if not left for to long

They are just as good as pampers and they don't smell toxic like pampers.

Mutch better then most of the other brands, and better for your babies skin and envieroment

I use them when I've ran out of reusables or when travelling. We used to have leaks on the smaller sizes, but it seems fine now.

Great nappy that is a good compromise between the normal disposable and the reusable. Would recommend using a more mainstream brand at night however as they are not tremendously leakproof.

I have used these nappies with my son since the beginning in conjunuction with terry squares - disposables at night, terry during the day and he has never had nappy rash. I have only had leakage when he was still nursing two or three times in the night. I love these nappies.

Good for easing your conscience about using nappies full of chemicals, but the fastenings are not flexible (less comfortable as your baby gets more active) and they tend to leak more than say Pampers or Huggies

I liked these because they were 70% bio degradable - I did feel that the material used was rather papery and harsh on little ones skins and found that I could not always get hold of them from shops easily. On the whole they were great - no leaks at all.

I think these really are the best nappies available if you care about filling up landfill when using disposables. I feel that at least I know at least 70% of the nappy will decompose whereas all the other non-eco brands (e.g. pampers and huggies and the supermarkets)won't degrade for 100+ years! I've used them for more than 2 years and have never had problems with leakage, nappy rash etc. A great nappy - try them. Yes, they are not as pretty as Pampers but then they are not so packed with hideous chemicals!

I tried an entire packet and never will again. All but one leaked and required a change of clothes during the day or night. I desperately wanted them to do a good job (and help salve my environmental conscience) but I'm afraid they just didn't do what a nappy needs to do.

I actually rate these better than non-green disposable nappies I've used, and trust them overnight more than Pampers. I'm pleased they've also started making pull-ups now that my son is 2.

The only real problem is the lack of availability - not sold in Tesco.

We've had no leaks with these nappies and no nappy rash. No leaks when used overnight. As good, if not better, than leading brands and help the environment at the same time.

fantastic nappies - don't smell of plastics and chemicals, don't leak, don't give my baby rashes and are better for the environment. highly recommend!

Great compromise for those who can't go reusable
Not so reliable at night as a pampers/huggies so tend to fall back on those at nighttme, and the newborn sizing can be very leaky indeed - be warned!

I used the newborn ones until my DD was big enough for our cotton nappies. I found them surprisingly absorbent (the nurses in SCBU were pleasently surprised by this as well). Easy to pop on. And you can use them with a reasonably clear conscience re: the environment.

I have used all sorts of nappies since the birth of my daughter, like many I was a bit wary of trying these incase they were not as good as the main brands. I dont agree with the statement I read on this site, I have found them to be very reliable, I haven't needed to change her more often and she has never had nappy rash in these. I do agree that they go a bit of a funny shape when they are full, but I'd rather that than have the chemical gels (from the other main brand nappies) next to her skin.

They're brilliant. I only use them at night. They were brilliant when DS was tiny and now he is eating solids. He was breast fed and we had a couple of leaks when he was a maximum on the breast feeding and starting solids (runny poo!), bu have been really impressed by them, no signs of nappy rash either.

For those like me that worry about the amount of nappy waste they produce but do not want to make the switch to washables these are a great nappy. They fit my 18 month old little boy really nicely and are every bit as absorbent as the leading brands. Even overnight they hold up well and are much better than supermarket nappies that sort of disintegrate. They feel lovely (not as plasticy-y as usual nappies). I definitely will use them over other nappies as long as the extra cost is fesible- as they are defintely more expensive even than the two big brands.

There have been comments about nappy rash. However when my little girl was newborn and still today (she is 6 months) we found these were the only nappies that did not give her nappy rash! She immediately came out in a red rash when I put her a number of other brands.
