Reusable nappies Tots Bots

Great nappies. So much better the disposables!! I can see people have been saying they leak. As long as the nappy is put on properly and the cover is covering all of the nappy there isn't a problem. They last my son 3 hours and then i change him. Who wants there child in a wet nappy any longer? My son has never had nappy rash either! I did get my nappies of ebay as i couldn't afford the price otherwise

I bought a set of these nappies on offer at the Baby Show so I have found them to be very good value for money. If paying the full price of £15-20 each i think that they are quite expensive. At first I used them exclusively as I was quite passionate about the environmental benefits. As my baby has got older I have found that I need to change her much more frequently to avoid leakage whereas in disposable nappies she will last much longer. These nappies would not last my baby overnight anymore. Now I use 50/50 disposable to reusable (reusable at home and disposable out and about and at night) and all my reusable nappies are tots bots. I would recommend them but I haven't used any other brands so I'm not sure how they compare.

bamboozles- great nappy used mainly for bedtime, unbeatable absorbency and containment. stays soft, dose take along time to dry as to be expected with bamboo, amazing fit.

flexi tots- I have an older version of these than what they sell now. they are slim fitting for a 2 part system but not as slim as all in one but they are very absorbent and have good containment. they don't wash that well tho and they do tend to wear with washes but i believe this has now been resolved with new version.

Easyfit- this is my least fav tots bot but my mum and husband like it for ease of use. ok for day time use and around the house not terribly reliable and more bulky than other all in ones. washes well dries quickly thanks to fold out middle.

Wraps- Love this wrap it fits so well and contains everything. it's super soft and crinkle free. comes in great patterns. I do find tho that it doesn't span the weight range stated and starts to leak when getting close to upper limit.

We have used these nappies on/off for over a year now, so fee qualified to comment. Had problems with them leaking and causing nappy rash, but that turned out to be a build up of Urine and detergent. Gave them a stripping wash by washing and thouroughly rinsing with a dishwasher tablet and I love them again! Now do an extra rinse and also make sure I use the 1/2 the normal ammount of washing powder and no problems since.

We bought easy fit for day time wear and bamboozles for night time with a wrap. My daughter isn't a heavy wetter and the easy fit are suitable all the time without an additional booster. The bamboozles are bulkier, and take longer to dry so haven't used them much as easy fit meet our needs. We went for the velcro type fastening which has proved robust. They are one size and easy to adjust for a smaller baby although they are bulkier. We only have leaks now if they're on for over 1/2 a day (oops). We use a reusable liner made out of fleece, so this keeps wetness away from the skin and it's easy to shake the contents down the toilet. Daughter doesn't seem to worry whether she's wearing a disposable or a re-useable.

We have the bamboo nappies. The nappies are brilliant, they come up really soft even though we're in a hard water area. The wraps are rubbish though, they don't fit well at all and leak loads. We replaced them with Motherease wraps and get on much better with those.

This refers to the Bamboozles.
These are excellent nappies. They fit snugly and are very absorbent. I've never had any leaks with them. Ideal for use at night as well. The only downside is they take a long time to dry.

I used the old Tots Bots bamboo's on my first a few years back and I couldn't fault them - apart from being a bit bulky.
I bought Flexitots for my 1yo and they are a disappointment :(
They only seem to last half the time compared to my old bamboo's.

As these had such good reviews by so may people I bought 5 to try them out. As much as I wanted to like them I found that when my son soiled them, they leaked 9 times out of 10 meaning I had to change his clothes too.
I did think they seem well designed and fit well. I bought the teeny tots ones as my son was only 5lbs 10ozs.
A big disappointment - I gave up on them after a fair number of goes.

In my free trial pack i got a few of these, the teeny fit and after reading up on lots of nappys i was reather excited about these and was really disipointed, they leaked a few times not mayjor about the same as disposables, and unlike bumgenius etc the fact the booster is attached to the whole nappy was a negative, the bamboo is on top of the nappy and stays wet and also as its all conected to the whole nappy you have to wait for the whole nappy to dry!

Reviewing Tots Bots nappies is quite strange as there are so many to choose from and so many of the reviews already on here are for nappies that are no longer available. However, Tots Bots latest nappy the EasyFit is a fantastic design (an all in one so no need for a separate wrap, one size nappy that fits from birth to potty) and a work of art too! No leaks, night or day. Hurrah!

I was slightly sceptical that reusables would be leak proof overnight - I added a booster to the nappy and decided to take the plunge - well yes she was wet through by the morning but the nappy had gone from 6pm through to 7.30 without being changed and there were no leaks!!! I would recommend these for anyone looking at reusables.

I recently purchased some from www.cabbagepatchcorner.com and they are fantastic

Nice and soft but takes ages to dry so not much good for alternate day washing. Also feels wetter against baby skin than bum genius.

Much prefer Bum Genius

Used flexitots size 1 to start off with and they were great, much better than pampers and the extra washing didn't seem that much as I didn't have as many clothes and bedding to wash.
Then I started to use my old style poppers bamboozles when DS grew into them and WOW!They can hold two consecutive BF poos which is a real feat. They also look fluffy and comfy compared to wearing paper pants. Takes 24 hours to dry on a rack near (not on) a radiator but can also be tumble dried.
Just a tip, get motherease wraps, tots bots wraps are good but motherease are better.

I trialed five different nappy brands using Babykind's trial service for my newborn. I've reviewed them all here though my marks are for the Tots Bots TeenyFit. The brands were Fuzzi Bunz (XS), Weehuggers (Size 1), Itti Bitti D'Lish (Small), Real Easy(V2, XS) from Hip Hip Baby and Tots Bots Teenyfit. I also tried Little Lambs Microterry(Size 1) at the same time. After trialing all of these for just over two weeks I bought five each of Fuzzi Bunz (S), Real Easy (S) and Little Lambs (Size 1). Having used these for a few months I really couldn't choose between Fuzzi Bunz and Real Easy as my favourites - they are both excellent.

Fuzzi Bunz
Good value, fits really well with poppers around the waist and legs, dries in no time, easy to use, keeps wet away from baby's skin. May need an extra booster for overnight or heavy wetters.

Real Easy (Hip Hip Baby)
Good value, fits really well, very absorbant, easy to use, keeps wet away from baby's skin. Compared to a standard Fuzzi Bunz (e.g. one without an extra booster), it takes longer to dry but is more absorbant.

Little Lambs
Good value, very soft and comfy, flexible fitting and very absorbant. The whole nappy gets wet so does tend to stay near to baby's skin, the velcro sticks to things in the wash even if you use the tabs and the nappy is BIG (in hindsight, probably wouldn't have bought this for a small baby but they're so soft we couldn't resist).

Tots Bots Teenyfit
We loved this nappy and would have bought some but after the Teenyfit you buy the EasyFit which is a one-size nappy (e.g. it poppers down for smaller babies and is released as they grow). This is a cheaper option in the long run because you don't need to buy multiple nappies as your baby grows, but we felt that this type of nappy was too bulky on a small baby.

Itti Bitti D'lish
Very funky nappy in great colours and very absorbant for wee. However, they are expensive and poo shot out of the leg holes every time.

Weehuggers
Didn't like these at all, they were absorbant enough but were very rigid, not particularly easy to use or quick to dry and the width of the nappy between the legs was too wide.

We have been using the tots bots bamboozle stretch and before that the old style bamboozle, both with the tots bots wraps. These nappies have been fantastic, they are the only nappies we have found to hold in everything (better than disposables for our little one). They do take about 24hrs to dry in our airing cupboard but that is the only downside.

These come in adorable prints.

The fabric on the outside is a bit slippery and I nearly dropped dd the first time she wore one, so that's the only problem I have had.

They wash brilliantly, the wear very well, the look attractive.

I love them.

Love love love them!

Loved the Tots Bots we used. Used size 2s from Birth to potty, although DD was heavy wetter at night and didn't last the night. Used Tots Bots wraps which were OK, but have heard better things about Motherease wraps so may try those next time.

I use a two parter and the nappy has always been Totsbots with nippa fastening. I have the cotton ones but mainly am a devotee of Fluffles... though sadly these have been discontinued. The Fluffles are soft, dry fast and easy to clean and care for. I haven't used any of the new TB wraps but wasn't impressed with the versions I used a few years ago. I swear by Motherease Airflows. So have used the combo of TB nappy and ME wraps really successfully for 2.5 years and about to start using the same on my new arrival. Oh and a) I've mainly used second hand which I've been really pleased with and b) as per a) they hold their value if you want to see them on.

used a variety of tots bots- rainbow coloured cotton ones that have now been discontinued- great but a bit slow to dry, fluffles (get ones that you can use nippa with as much better than ones with poppers)- lovely and soft but bulky and not absorbent enough as my daughter got a bit older, and ended up on flexitots- great but took ages to dry due to bamboo core. used motherease airflow wraps and little lambs wraps as was advised that tots bots wraps leaked a lot. overall great products, i recommend them. nappylady site is great to buy them from- extremely helpful went starting out with washable nappies.

Tots Bots make different designs, it would be more helpful if they were listed individually. Also could wraps be separated from nappies as some appear to work better than others

We bought the flexitots and have been really impressed they seem to contain better now our little one has more solid poos and they have lasted well our little one is now 8 months old and we have had them since birth

the hi-tech new nappy from tots bots. liked the naturally anti-bacterial, super soft, bamboo element and the absorbent core. was very impressed by the containment of this nappy - wrap aside- as we were dealing with explosive breastfed poo. lo is a very heavy wetter and didn't experience any leaks. i used motherease and the new totsbots wraps - both v effective. i was also impressed by how quickly this nappy dried. about 6hrs hanging on a clothes horse (we don't have a tumble drier). the only thing i found was it was very bulky on a (slightly smaller than average) newborn - which didn't look terribly comfy. bit of an expensive initial outlay but very effective.

i use tots bots bamboozles as a night nappy and have never had a leak except when we don't do up the wrap snugly enough. i don't mind the tots bots wraps but motherease are softer and less prone to wicking round the legs. i find them a little bulky for daytime wear. the bamboo stays soft even in london water, and i have them in gorgeous colours, although think these may have been discontinued.

Daughter's been in flexitots for three months. Really like them but have noticed bald patches on some after the last few washes and we've never tumble dried them. Also lots of fluff which gets everywhere! Doesn't seem to have affected the absorbancy though.
Am in the process of contacting Tots Bots to get them replaced. Apparently there has been a faulty batch cos some of the nappies are fine.

These new nappies from Tot's Bots are great much better than the previous version - Bamboozles. They are very easy to fasten, absorbent, soft and very importantly very quick to dry. The flexi wraps are also a great improvement, again soft and no dampness appearing round the wicking at the edges. The cut of the nappy is narrow to improve movement but they are still a little bulky at the back, but most reusable nappies are.
Top Tip: if you put two liners in the nappy you get little mess and staining on the nappy - great news for who does the washing.

i've been using the flexi tots for 3 months on my baby and loved them at first.However the bamboo velour lining has already become threadbare and patchy now.They are going bald!I have never tumbledried them or put them on a radiator and am disappointed that they have not retained their initial super absorbency.

I used cotton tots for my son up to 5 months and I've moved to flexi tots now. Cotton tots were great, washed & dried well (under 24 hours) & I used the motherease rikki wrap as I found the tots bots wrap leaked (a bit gutted as the tots wraps are so cute - but motherease do various animal print ones which are nice too). I would recommend using the disposable liner to begin with as cleaning off newborn paste-poo isn't easy (now my son is weaning and doing more normal poo's I will go back to washable liners when I run out).
Having now moved to the next size I have gone for the new flexi tot which looks & fits well (slimmer on the sides than the cotton tot but chunkier between the legs) and is more pleasant to change as the nappy isn't sodden wet like the cotton tots gets - However..drying is a lengthy process with the new flexi tot so sample one first (drying takes about a day and a half), I hope once the central heating comes back on it will be easier. Again I used motherease rikki for the outer wrap and they're great. Never had an issue with nappy rash and leakage is very rare. Getting trousers to fit is tricky though as baby's bum is made huge by washable nappies! Frugi (previously cut4cloth) is good for big bum clothes but expensive. Nappylady website is great for getting a recommendation & discount on orders.

Fantastic nappies!! I have tried the cotton version which do up with velcro and found them to be fine for daytime use but they seem bulky and my son likes to open anything with velcro! The type of Tots Bots nappies with I really loved, were the Bamboozle bamboo ones which fasten with poppers. They are so soft and flexible not bulky and do not restrict baby's movements. Also the fact that they are made from bamboo means they are more environmentally friendly. It is worth looking at a few websites to find a good buy as you can get some real bargains (amazon, Kiddicare) Finally they dry so much faster than other nappies that I have tried. Really great nappies I would totally recommend them.

I have long been a TotsBots fan and I have used their nappies with all of my children. I used their Bamboozles with my last baby and to be honest I didn't really think that they could be improved on. However the FlexiTots just blows them out of the water. They are soft and super absorbent. They just don't seem to leak at all. What a fantastic nappy. 10 / 10

Brilliant. If you live in a hard water area and don't have or like to use a tumble dryer, then these are excellent. They dry very quickly and remain soft and fluffy.

I liked these nappies for a little baby but found that they were leaking frustratingly often as my son got bigger. Changing wraps helped a lot with the leaking but made the bulkiness worse. That said, poo containment is pretty impressive but I am planning to try something else for stage 2.

Bought as recommended by everyone here. DS1 is now 6mths old and they are just as excellent as everyone says. They contain everything and as DS1 is exclusively breastfed even now (and he can do monster explosive poos), that is no mean feat! Size 2s can be used from birth, but I'd recommend 10x size 1s too for the first couple of months as DS1 was 8.13lbs and the size 2 felt like they were too big for his body right at the start. Was well, and any stains bleach out as soon as they're on the line in the sun.

These are very easy to use and now have a variety of colours and materials, - cotton, bamboo or microfibre (fluffles.They go on easily especially if you use the velcro fastenings and appear comfy and very absorbant. They do look a little bulky on my daughter but they seem to be great for preventi9ng nappy rash. The original cotton one are quite slow to dry, but the newer fluffles dry very quickly although are not as absorbant. I don't think we've had leaks so far and we've been using them for about 8 months, (among others).

i have tried various reusables and these are the best.most reliable to prevent leaks even of breast fed baby poo!use two really good quality liners to help with soiling.also you could use boosters at night if needed.motherease wraps are good with them.they do take longer to dry but are worth it.motherease nappies are easier to dry and are my second choice but not trusted as much as these.i use the velcro ones and poppers on the wraps.

I have used these on my daughter from about 3 weeks of age/9lbs ish - she is now 3 months. They wash really well and, so far, have kept their absorbancy well. I do use a disposable at night unless she is changed again in the late evening if we turn in late.

I have both cotton non bleached and bamboo type unbleached. The cotton ones dry quickest but the bamboo are a little softer to touch and less bulky. When I get the next size I will probably get cotton ones again.

I don't yet use the liners but expect to do so when we start weaning.

Wraps - I found the tot bot wraps OK although they do stain a little. I also found that there wern't enough of them in the multi pack you can get and so purchased a motherease wrap to try - which I prefer to use as the material is more forgiving but no more effective otherwise.

I'm using Bamboozles. Take a long time to dry (compared to Motherease). Not as generous cut as other cloth nappies.

They are the softest fluffiest (and quickest drying) nappies around - and give your baby a "fairy baby" bum! These nappies do seem huge when you first get them, but they do slim down.

They are the perfect solution for a busy mum - a nappy that drys super quickly, I've had them dry in a couple of hours on the outside line, or overnight on the radiator. They really make cloth nappying a pleasure (well almost - we are talking nappies here!).

They come either with velcro, popper or nappy nippa (a fangled grippy thing that you use instead of a pin). Personally I prefer the nippa version as you get a better fit to your baby. [btw - one of the poppers broke on one of my nappies and Tots Bots repaired it for free]

Fluffles have a great resale value and a loyal following. They are the only nappy which I would consider using at night with my toddler (admittedly bulked up with extra liners - the "pocket" design makes it easy to do this.)

These are lovely nappies made from bamboo. They are very soft and look very cute. My baby seems very comfortable in them. They are a slim fitting nappy compared to many other cloth nappies. They are highly absorbant too. The only drawback is that they take a long time to dry.

Very good nappies - excellent at containing all they needed to!

These nappies really do take a LONG time to dry. I don't have a tumble dryer, but didn't realise, until I had bought them that you are not supposed to put them on the radiator either, as it 'cooks the bamboo', which can apparently damage the absorbency (so pretty bad then). This information did not come with the nappies - but I found it on tehthetots bots website - not good enough in my opinion. They take DAYS to dry on an airer - I bought 20 nappies, and the washed ones were not dry when I ran out and needed to use them. The nappies are fine when you use them, but I consider these proper drawbacks.

This is a fantastic nappy. Slim fitting, soft fabric with great absorbency. The fastenings make it really easy to use. It stays soft after each wash and the rainbow colours are devine!

Like most mums I know, I started out with very good intentions of using washable nappies and struggled to stick with it. Were it not for Tots Bots I would have reverted to disposables months ago. They are soft, easy to wash and they don't leak!!! I just wish I could afford to buy more of them. They are excellent.

These are fantastic nappies, 'the backbone of my nappy stash'.

My favourite for nighttime use is the unbleached cotton version as it is so absorbant.

I also love the rainbow cotton ones as less bulky under clothing for daytime wear, but unfortunately these have now been discontinued.

Lovely, soft slim fitting nappies. Easy to take on and off and VERY absorbant. Only downside is that they take a long time to dry.

Bamboozles great for absorbency and fit. Had the Aplix (velcro) ones. Size 1 only lasted until 3 months as DD is chunky legged, so would advise people with bigger babies not to bother with the size 1s from birth.

Lovely fit, gorgeous cute looking nappies. Bamboozles are lovely and soft.

Have been using size 2 Tots Bots as a birth to potty nappy for 9 months and wouldn't be without them. They are easy to use, comfortable and, most importantly, reliable. They also dry quicker than most other reusables, even without a dryer.
I would recommend them to anyone and will certainly be using them on my next child.

Original Tots Bots were great for first couple of years use, now after 2 1/2 yrs constant use on 2 children (30 mths & 18 mths) starting to get threadbare and leak. Have recently had to buy microfibre cloths as inserts. Always had to use 2 nappies overnight but I guess I have very heavy wetters. DH prefers them to disposables which is praise indeed.Prefer nippa version to aplix and original over bamboozles. Use with Motherease Airflow wraps.

Fab nappies, soft and fluffy and keep soft and fluffy. Comfy good fit and very easy to use. I prefer nappy nippa ones as velcro can cause problems when being washed! I have tried loads of different reusables and these are my favourites.

A great nappy. Very absorbent and performs well overnight. Cute looking, too.
Maybe works out a bit expensive if that's all you use as you would need enough in each size.

I've been using Bamboozles for over a year now and apart from taking a while to dry naturally inside the house, they are easy to use, reliable and look comfortable on. Even my toddler's nursery are happy to use them, so I don't have to resort to disposables when my child is there.

I have some old tots bots nappies that I love to bits - good shape and size, excellent containment. The size 2 is slightly too small to last to potty training so you would need the size 3 too - not available in all types.

A good reliable nappy.

Reviewers raved about these "really easy to use" reusables which are "elasticated at the legs and back to fit really well". They won top marks for absorbency with most agreeing that "they never leak even when left for a really long time" and for comfort: "no nappy rash", plus they are "soft and snugly". The only minor complaints were that they "take a while to dry - the price of being so absorbent" and "they are a little bulky". Nonetheless "they look really cute" and have an "excellent re-sale value". "So good I was almost sad when potty training succeeded!"

These nappies are absolutely excellent. Comfortable, absorbant, cheap in the long run( although the initial outlay is expensive) but best of all fantastically cute!!!! I have used the size 2 birth to potty nippa nappy on my son since birth and he is now 9 weeks old. I will definately be using them on my next child. I cannot praise them enough. Super!!!

Brilliant nappies! very cute looking & furry! have had no leaks with tots as I have with the leading brand of disposable nappies. I love them and I swear by them, I think they are the BEST re-usable nappy on the market!

These just don't leak, are very absorbant and seem very comfortable. They are easy to use even with the nappy nippas (and the nippas seem to appeal to the male gadget instinct) although, as others have said, they do take a long time to dry.

I love these nappies! They are totally reliable and seem to fit all shapes of children perfectly. They are also really cute! The only downsides are that they take a while to dry, are bulkier than some reusables under cloths and they are farily pricy, as most people will need all 3 sizes. However, they really are brilliant nappies and the pros far outweight the cons. They also wash really nicely and will certainly last for at least one more child (DS is now 22.5 months and has been wearing them since about 4 weeks).

I haven't tried any other reusable nappies but I'm confident I made the right choice with Tots Bots. You don't have to soak them in a special solution, which is great for me since I live abroad and was worried I wouldn't find the right stuff. They've never leaked on me, they look really cute, they seem to be comfortable and we've never had a problem with nappy rash. I don't have a dryer but that hasn't been a problem. The only downside might be that my baby's bum looks huge in them (I'm using size 2 from 1 month old) and she has to wear trousers in the next size up. Also because they're so bulky we're still using disposables at night (she's 3 months old now) and we're wondering whether it might take her a bit longer to learn to roll over! But apart from that I can't recommend them more highly. And it's great to know that we're doing our bit for the environment as well as saving lots of money in the long run.

Highly absorbant reusable nappy which is put on like a disposable if you go for the aplix version. A little on the bulky side but not enormously so. Very effective and contains most explosive moments!

great reusuable nappy

the best night nappy-a little bulky for daytime under most clothes but ideal under a dress. they are really lovely quality and extremely absorbant and cute. The pul wraps made by tots bots are awful (shrink badly, wash badly, leak badly need i go on...) though and i use nature babies wraps as they are more generous over these thick nappies.

they are completly bombproof that means breastfed poo and all. they hold an enormous amount of wee too. great for at night and during the day. fun colourful and easy to use.

Washable nappies are a definite option and these are a very easy 2-part system. Washes well (look cute on the line) and very easy to use - especially the ones with Aplix. I have Rainbow Bots for the day and Tots Bots for the nights, as more absorbent. I feel that a 2-part system is good as it means that any stray poo has to get past two barriers. I use Motherease Air-flow wraps as the poppers are not easy for a babe to undo.

A dream come true!! I love these nappies! The only (unfortunate) downside, is I have had the elastic go in several of my nappies in a very short period of time. I have been assured that this should only happen if I use sanitiser, which I don't, so it is a bit of a mystery. They were however, replaced for me so life is good! Everyone buy them, they are wonderful!

They are great. We have used them with our daughter and find them far better than disposables. They never leak and are easy to put on & change. The washing isn't the chore I expected it to be and they have lasted really well - plus we are saving a fortune (even when you add in the cost of washing & drying).

Bought these from Kittykins (excellent site) after mumsnet recommendations. Had been using Bambino Mio -these much less leaky and look and feel lovely and soft on baby's bottom. Best used with hemp booster pads as DS is heavy wetter. Good all-round nappy.

they are completely bomb proof, even holds bf poo.

easy for daddy to use too. dry pail wash and tumbledry, drying them outside removes stains. what could be easier.

almost guaranteed bombproof!

Have yet to find a cloth or a 'sposie nappy that can hold more than these suckers. Very husband friendly too!

Easy and reliable but wouldn't use them again as they take too long to dry.

Lovely squishy, comfortable nappies. Easy to use and my son loves them.

I've already sent a review of these with ratings, but would like to add that now my baby's weaned and so less wet I'm planning to move onto something a little more slimline as clothing gets more slimline as babies get older and Totsbots and slimline don't go! I'll still use Totsbots (with the booster) at night as using Totsobots I've never had to change a nappy at night and never had to deal with nappy rash! In short, definitely buy for newborns, but think twice before buying the next size up if you're about to wean.

Lasts as long as a disposable, totally reliable. But quite bulky.

I use Tots Bots size 2 nappies overnight (up to 12 hours) for my 4 month old DS and he has only had a leak once; they are very absorbant. Very easy to use as they're shaped, and look very cute! Only downside is that they are so padded they restrict DS from rolling about, which he doesn't like, but overnight it doesn't matter.

Fabulous nappies, very absorbant and great for overnight use with a fleece wrap. No leaks in 3 months of use! The only downside is that they are quite bulky for daytime use. However, overall an excellent nappy with a great snug fit.

Tots Bots are great! Our dd has been wearing them since 6 weeks (now 6 months) and we've never had a leak. They're so easy to use and they don't need soaking in a special solution. They've saved us loads of money and (we still believe) we're doing our bit for the environment too. Last week we went away and used disposables because we didn't have access to a washing machine, and dd developed her worst nappy rash to date, so I'm convinced the reusable nappies have reduced nappy rash as well. My only slight concern is that they're quite bulky compared to disposables, and I wonder if that's what's stopping her rolling over very much, but I think the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages, and our next dd or ds will definitely be in Tots Bots too.

Excellent all round system ideal for first-time triers. They do take a long time to dry on the line, though...

Really easy to use, gives him a giant bottom - ensure lots of nappy free time!

The most absorbant and reliable nappy that I've tried. They are very easy to use in the applix version, even the nursery that I send my little girl to comment on how good they are.

these are quite bulky (though the rainbow bots are slimmer), but do the job. they fit well with nappi nippas and have a nice shape! definately recommend them

lovely soft nappies. easy to use and cheaper than some other brands. wash well, but take a little while to dry if you don't have a tumble drier

"Does my bum look big in this, Mum?" well the answer has to be yes. Expect to have to buy larger clothes to get them over the bulk of the nappy. This is probably easier with girls wearing dresses and skirts rather than boys who still tend to wear the trousers, even in the most right-on baby household! They may come in lots of cute colours but who is going to see them underneath the wrap. Ok so they look good on the washing line, but I am sorry, I wasn't convinced.

superb absorobant qualities, great for breastfed babies and those explosive poos! if you want a tighter fit, buy ones without velcro and use nippas instead. nippas are great for long or skiny babies. chunky babies fit tots perfectly!

Very absorbent and hard-wearing but quite bulky and consequently slow to dry

super cute nappies - & super absorbent too. take a long time to dry tho - but probably worth it for the reliability. great resale value too.

Wonderfully absorbent nappy which is virtually as easy to use as a disposeable. We opted for the Applix version, which is self-fastening. So far have been used by 2 children, and still look great! A fantastic investment - I only wish they'd had the rainbow bots when I bought mine- I quite fancied a few in green or yellow for parties!

I have been using totsbots for nighttime only and they are fab. My daughter is on the small size and I prob should have bought a nappy nippa to get a tighter fit, but with a good wrap it's not a problem. She'll grow into them! The rainbow tots are gorgeous, but not as absorbant, I have to pad them out if I use them for nights.

Great! I am using them on my second child and they are still going strong. Easy to use and my husband is actually using them too! Motherease wraps work very well with them. Only problem is that they do take a while to dry. Great resale value as well!

If you get the aplix versions, they are almost as convenient to put on and off as disposables, but with no pile of stinky nappies in the bin or 'sangenic'. I don't have a tumble drier and they still dry pretty quickly. I've sent my sons to nursery in them with no real problems. The only downside I can think of is that they can get quite stiff if you live in a hard water area, and the colours fade so if you use them lots they end up quite muted. The fabric seems far better quality and absorbency than the alternatives I have tried, which may look the same but feel far cheaper.

An excellent reusable nappy - no leaks, easy to wash but take a while to dry.

Used them on my two and a half year old son since he was a few months old and they have been great. very absorbant, cute looking and easy to put on. They do take quite a while to dry, but i had enough that it wasn't a problem. don't expect them to last more than one child though if using the larger size as a birth to potty nappy, mine have lost most of their elasticity and fluff now.

A great nappy overall. Keeps my baby dry and with the booster in, lasts all night too. Easy to use and looks comfortable and my son very rarely has a sore bottom. The only down side is the length of time that they take to dry as they are quite bulky and I don't have a drier, but it's great when the sun's shining and they can just hang on the line! Expecting no.3 and will definitely be buying some size 1s for this one.

Absolutely fantastic night-time nappy... cant believe dd can wear it for nearly 13 hours and no leaks! No other nappy i have tried comes close - including the dreaded disposables!!!

Super night time nappy. Bit too bulky for daytime use

Personally I feel with a terry based nappy you really do need to use a drier to ensure that they are soft for the baby to wear, even if it is only for the first 40 mins or so and then put out on the line. Mine are definitely showing signs of wear and thats only after 1 child who at 2 years has just started potty training. For the next I think I will use a conbination of tots and motherease.

Have never had any leaks with these nappies, they can cope with anything my lad produces. He is a bit on the skinny side and I find the nippa versions fit him better, and also prefer the unlbeached to the rainbow/white versions.That said they are quite bulky and take a while to dry

These are so simple to use - just as easy as a disposable to put on, and baby looks so cute in them. Baby found the bulk a bit of a shock at first and was inclined to grizzle, but he's used to them now. As for the extra washing, well, a new baby = lots of washing. The nappies just become part of the extra. We tried a number of real nappies before deciding on these - ease of use and lack of leaks being the key factors that steered us towards Tot Bots.

Easy to use and reliable. Not to mention absolutely adorable !!!

really easy to use and baby looks so cute

My daughter was a heavy wetter and I found that these just weren't absorbent enough to go through the nigt even with a booster. Looked very cute though.

Lovely soft nappies, really absorbent & comfy too. If anything, just a bit bulky, but fab for night time

Tots trainning pants are the only ones i found that weren't like a nappy my daughter really felt like she was wearing Big girl pants. THey held enough to prevent a puddle

found them great - but need the nappy wraps as well. i also bought the liners and haven

Fantastic nappy, I have used many but this is definately the all round winner. However, I find the tots wraps leak with my heavy wetting baby - use motherease wraps, not as cute but work better

Apart from the cost (how can they justify these prices for terry cotton?) these really are the most fabulous nappies I have ever used. Baby goes 12 hours overnight with no leaks, they fit brilliantly, and wash like a dream. And they look so cute. Changing is almost a pleasure.

use the fluffles version, sooooo soft, quick drying - amazing.

Bulky but very cute and great for night time.

I have tried different disposable and reusable nappies before deciding on Totsbots. They have been the only nappies that have contained any violent poo outbursts everytime. My baby looks cute in them, is very comforatble and has not had any nappy rash. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

After trying various other well known brands of washable nappies, I have finally found one that suits my daughter. The plastic outer wraps seemed to irrate her skin so I almost gave up and moved to environmentally friendly disposables. However with Tots bots they do a fleece wrap which is ideal. Highly recommend

Extremely absorbent. Surprisingly easy to use and no different to disposable nappies in that respect. Wash easily. Definitely saves on wastage. My baby loves them. The Bamboozle variety (made out of bamboo fibres) are more absorbent, have antibacterial properties and softer on the skin and they are so lovely to use. Highly recommended.

The totsbots nappies are really absorbent and the aplix fastening ones are easy to use. However, now she is about 12lb they are digging into her chubby thighs and making a mark. Also the wraps are a bit useless, the edges soak up the wee and it then leaks onto the vest.

Tots Bots Nappies are just amazing! Having tried a selection of reuseables for the first time on my fifth child I am not just impressed but truly amazed by these nappies. Oh why didn't I discover them sooner! I have an 11 week old breast fed baby and have experienced no leaks with these so far leading me to believe that rather than creating more washing, reuseables have in fact left me with a smaller washing pile than usual as I don't have to change baby's outfit all the time like I did with top brand leaky disposables with my other 4 children. My favourites of all Tots are the new Fluffles as they have a fleecy inner layer that stays dry to the touch against baby's bottom, and stays soft and warm against baby's skin even when completely full, fantastic stuff. Will be stocking up on these from now on!

I love these nappies! They are very easy to use - just like disposables - and they lots of clever features such as the fold back aplix tabs so that they don't stick to other items in the laundry and the fold out booster so that they dry quicker. They also look really cute, especially the rainbow tots, and give my baby a lovely pattable bot!

buy them there great

Very absorbent and leak free-only drawback is length of drying time

Nice and easy, take longer to dry than terries towels but have a good level of absorbency. Loved the use of a layer of fleece to keep dampness off babies bottom.

We love these. They're the best reusables we've tried in terms of reliability and (unlike bambino mio) the wraps never get soiled as everything is contained in the nappy. The only downside is that they're quite expensive, although their resale value is high.

Easy to use, even the nursery can use them. More reliable than disposables. Washing also no problem. Tots Bots bamboozles fantastic - we use them overnight as they are more absorbant, but they take longer to dry than the standard ones - they stay wonderfully soft.

lovely nappies but take ages to dry and really bulky on a newborn.

Love the colours/designs of the wraps!!!!

No nappy rash - very comfy. Only thing I struggle with is sometimes leaks but think my son is a heavy wetter..looking into booster pads at the moment.

Easy to use, take forever to dry, found that the towelling felt quite rough against babies skin. Reliable.

It's a shame they are so bulky because if they weren't then they'd be the perfect nappy.

Fab reusable nappy, even my DH can use it!

from 3ths onwards (or less with a fullterm baby) tots bots is hard to beat. practically bomb-proof with a breastfed baby and fully absorbant during the night. tots boosters are the best pads to boost nighttime nappies. mine have lasted 5 years with only a few casulties!

I use the nappi nippa versions, which require a teeny tiny bit more dexterity to do up when you first use them, but after you've done a few they are just as easy as velcro or poppers. Slightly bulky so no slim fit baby jeans (!!) but they do the job well.

my favorite nappy,the most reliable ive found,easy to wash and look so cute!also made in uk.

I used these for the first 6 months, right from the time he came home from hospital and they were great - really easy to use (aplix version) and almost never leaked beyond the wrap (motherease Airflow). The only issue is time to dry and also they get crunchy if not-tumbled, so we decided to tumble-dry them (took about 60min then a little time on the radiator). So have changed over to Totbots revolutionary Fluffle instead (see separate review).

strange foldy bit and they are grown out of quick as not very adjustable.

very absorbant but a bit bulky. can go a bit crunchy if you dont have a tumble dryer

Tots Bots Fluffles are the new nappy made of fleece. This means they stay soft and dry as fast as a terry nappy (2 hours) with no need for tumble dryer. I have never had a leak. Better still the Size 2 covers birth to potty, so very economical.

Easy to wash and dry; very soft Aplix, works better than velcro; nice snug fit. Together with motherease one size they are my favourites

I use tots bots bamboozle and they really are absolutely fab. However I have tried the tots bots wraps and found them to be terrible, they leak no matter how short a period they are on the bottom so have had to buy additional wraps from motherease.

i've yet to investigate supplementing my size one nappies with boosters, etc, but i found they do leak if i don't change my daughter every 2 hours. one helpful website did point out that the rainbow bots which i have ARE less absorbent than the others, and there are other wraps that might be more effective. definitely worth bearing in mind if you plan to buy them before you know how heavily your baby will wee!

Fluffles nappies are probably the best that i've found - they dry in an instant (without a tumble drier), they're always really really soft, and - most importantly, they've never leaked. Great for nighttime. And day time.

The original nappies are Pretty good. Obviously made for short babies so the sizing is off for taller babies. Very reliable but slow to dry. They make a good night nappy. I wouldn't use them in the day. Very bulky. Tots wraps are awful they shrink and leak.

Only an 8 for ease of use because they take a long time to dry even on the hottest day which means you'll need a few extra to avoid having to tumble dry every day. On the plus side they leak far less than disposables which means far less washing than stripping your baby every time she's dirty. I like the shaped design which is a good fit on my babe. Overall, I'd buy again and even at

a very popular nappy. good quality but not brilliant for taller babies

Love them. Only wish I had discovered and used them with my first child.

TOTS BOTS FLUFFLES are the fab new nappy for busy mums! I first tried out original Tots Bots nappies but found that the drying time was just too long (about 2 days line drying in winter) and if I put them on a radiator they went very hard and crunchy! Then I heard about new Fluffles, and they are fab! They line dry within a few hours and stay lovely and snuggly and soft, even in the hard water area where I live. I've got popper and nippa version, and prefer the nippa version to get a good fit. They are quite bulky on the baby, but he just now has a lovely soft big bum!! The only time we've sprung a leak is when I tried to use a wrap that wasn't quite big enough - leaving a bit of a gape on the back, so now always use a bigger wrap to fit properly over the nappy. I've put in extra padding at night time with some boosters and the nappy lasts through til breakfast. At

A soft and comfy nappy to keep baby's bottom happy!
She's never had a sore botty, always peachy never spotty!
Plus I hope my choice will be helping slow the ice caps from their melting!

I love tots! They have a fabric to suit everyone - bamboo, cotton and microfibre. They come in both sized (1, 2 & 3), or can be used as btp if you buy size 2 and fold down. They can be used with nippas, aplixed or poppered, and they give the cute fairy baby look. The only problem with them is that they can be bulkier than other makes, but with the addition of bamboozles, this has pretty much been eliminated as they are much slimmer. A must for any nappy collection.

After working as a nanny for 10 years and using disposables I was keen to try reusables on my own baby. A friend recommended tots bots and they have been FANTASTIC! I used size 1 from when my baby was a week old and have had no leaking, soreness or washing problems. The fleece liners are great, they wash well and don't stain and living in a flat with no washing line or tumble dryer I've found them pretty quick to dry. I did try the tots bots wraps and found they leaked so now use motherease which fit very snugly over the tots bots nappies and are great. Hate using disposables now!

Really soft and fluffy so they must feel good on your bot! Very absorbant, when we go to get Lewis weighed and we use a Pampers it usually leaks, but our tots bots dont, even after a heavy nights peeing! Really easy to use - dont be afraid of the nappi nippas! Only minus is they take a while to dry, but if you get a good day they line dry beautifully, also they are a little bulky - I have the Bamboozles as they are really absorbant and less bulky too - especially for under boys trousers.

Only problem is drying which is not scored here.

These are my favourite so far - they look great, never leak and feel very soft. They are a great fit on ds who has quite chunky thighs but a narrow waist.

The bamboozles are very absorbant, comfy for baby and easy to use. They take some time to dry though

I use the new Bamboozles which are fantastic!
Feel so nice and soft. Wash well and dry quickly.

Environmentally friendly and value for money. I prefer fuffles range to the rainbow tots and the nippa gripper to the velcro fastening as I have both.

Very impressed by these wonderful nappies - never had any leaks in the last year of using even as an overnight nappy(with extra terry booster and fleece wrap). They are slightly bulky and you really need a tumble dryer to dry them in the winter but still can't recommend them higly enough.

RECENTLY BOUGHT THE FLUFFLE BY TOTS BOTS FOR NIGHT TIME USE. IT IS BRILLIANT,IS ON FOR 12 HRS AND IN THE AM THERE ARE NO LEAKS.IT IS VERY, VERY QUICK DRYING AND COMES WITH A DETATCHABLE BOOSTER.AM USING IT WITH A BAMBINO MIO AND ONE LIFE WRAP. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND IS PRICED AT 8.75 WHICH I DONT THINK IS EXPENSIVE.

Wish I had discovered them sooner!
Fantastic...no leaks. Really cute and doing something good for the environment as well as saving money.
Money well spent.

nappies are great however found the wraps very leaky, motherease wraps with tots bots nappies were perfect

Bamboozle is very absorbant and with a one way liner keep baby dry, but they take a while to dry after washing. The fluffle is very snuggley and dries quickly.
With all reusable nappies you need to make sure the material edges don't touch the nappy as this will make it and the baby's clothes damp.
Tip: if your nappies are stained put them to dry in the sun.

I used tots bots nappies with motherease wraps for my daughter from birth to about 20 months. I used both with and without velcro and both were great but once she was mobile, the velcro nappies stayed in place better. I will definately use these again and would recommend them, but these nappies are bulky so in the winter, a tumble drier is essential. I would also recommend the nappylady website and her solution for homemade wet wipes. My daughter never had nappy rash and using homemade wet wipes must have saved me a fortune.

Tots Bots nappies are just as easy to use as disposables but better as they don't leak, are really absorbable and have much lower environmental impact. I like the nappy nippa system as it is so flexible for sizing. I use them with Motherease wraps which are my favourite - a good fit, leak-proof and breathable.

Great poo containment, easy to use and wash well. Cool range of colours in the standard range + try the bamboo ones - really soft. Work well with motherease wraps.

They're really soft and comfortable and the coloured ones make nappy changing more cheery than it can be! They do need to be changed more often than say Pampers as the wee soaks all the way through to the clothes. However, extra liners help this and I use disposable nappies at night to get through. They wash easily at 40 degrees and dry overnight in a hot cupboard.

I used the applix faster nappies which are really easy to put on. Washed great with no loss of colour (I've got the rainbow bots nappies).

They look lovely drying on the line

Just like putting on a disposable (if using aplix fastening). A little snug fitting when baby is at its chubbiest (9-12 months). Slow dry times compared with the Bumble. The Bamboozle (90% bamboo) is a nicer fit due to less bulk than the cotton. Lovely colours available in bamboozle or cotton.

Fantastic, they are comfy, cute, rarely leak and are simple to use.

These nappies are great; easy to use, fairly good absorbancy, however would suggest that they aren't great for babies with slim legs as my baby ended up developing a rash on her inner leg which immediately cleared up once we changed the brand of nappies.

i bought the fluffle version - they are really easy to use and you only need to buy one size from birth (give or take) to potty. in hind sight i wouldn't have bothered with the poppers as the nappi nippas are really easy to use.
they dry really quickly without a tumble drier and we have never leaked or experienced nappy rash. they are great and instead of 8000 nappies going to landfill our washing machine is a little busier....

great all rounder nappies!
always reliable no leaks.well designed and esy to lookafter.

These are so easy to use, very easy to launder and look as cute as can be.

In the unbleached version, ezcellent absorbancy, can easily last a 12 hour stretch.
Prone to feeling crunchy in hard water areas.
Excellent containment and fit with the nippa version.
Made in Scotland so fewer air miles.

I really like these, they are incredably absorbant of both wee and poo and so far I haven't have any leaks from them at all. They can be a bit fiddly to get on if Junior's riggling around, but then aren't all nappies? The only downside to them is that they are quite large between the legs, but no more than some other nappies.

They're extremely easy to use, fairly reliable, and not the priciest of the lot. They're good for day time, but for night time my baby needs more absorbency than a Tots Bots can give.

Very cute nappies, very reliable and very easy to use. My favourites of the 6 or 7 types which I use.

The tots bots FLUFFLES are a dream to use, so comfortable for baby, easy to use and quick to dry even on a washing line. They are sized, and having a big baby I bought the size 2 straight away and started using them from 3 months old. They were really big under my baby boys clothes and we found it haard to find trousers to fit that didn't look silly. As he grows they look better and better! They are less flexible thaan disposables and he looks well padded! I'm really pleased that I bought them.

My baby is very slim and these nappies do look a little bulky on her, perhaps I should try the slim fitting babboozle nappy that they also sell. The cotton nappies themselves are great however, if a little let down by the wrap at times - although I believe they have just introduced an improved design. Overall though really glad I made the decision to use re-usables.

great fit with a nippa, look cute, easy to wash

They are easy to use, they are soft and fluffy and they are super absorbent. However they take ages to dry and they are super bulky.

The Tots Bots Fluffle is the softest, fluffiest nappy I have ever come across, which makes it a delight to put on Junior's bottom. They also dry incredibly quickly after washing, making it much more straightforward to use reusables - they are almost dry by the time you take them out of the machine. Who thought nappies could be this much fun?

Brilliant design and fit. Only problems being that they go hard over time in hard water areas, and that they take quite a while to try. Tots bots fluffles are better because they have the same design and fit but don't go hard and are dry in super quick time.

Great shaped nappy especially for thinner babes. Very absorbant and with built in liner it is a must!!!

Fab fit even on skinny babies, reliable and makes my daughter look like the Fairy Baby!

The reason I cannot give a score is because I never received my nappies after waiting for 2 months. I was told quite rudely that my order was cancelled and they could not tell me why. I found out that a friend ordered me a gift of a starter pack. 2 months later this has not yet arrived. She will need to cancel it because my baby will have outgrown the nappy. Shocking customer service. If only I HAD a nappy to review. Makes me sick how long I have been using disposables in the meantime, I hate spoiling the environment.

bamboozles have been great, always reliable, easy to use and wash (useful to have a tumble dryer though) and no nappy rash!

Very efficient, lower leakage rate than when we used disposables out & about. Alos look really cute

Very easy to put on.Would fit most babies due to shaping and elasticated waist and legs. Upmarket makeover of the terry nappy. Used with Motherease Wrap, it saves on the cost of disposables and on washing soiled clothes.

I bought totsbots size 2 for my newborn - he is still wearing them at 19 months old! They are so reliable - contain even the most explosive poos - and last for ages. I am so pleased with them and recommend them to everyone I talk to!

It's a lot of money to shell out in one go but definitely worth it over time. They take a bit of getting used to if you are used to disposables, but once you've got the hang of them there's no going back!

These nappies are great but much more reliable when used with motherease wraps. I bought a few size 1 and 10 size 2(which looked ridiculout on a new born) and used nippas. However, now the baby is wriggling about so much on the changing table I find the velcro ones a lot easier and I wish I bought more size 2 with velcro. they are so absorbant. which was especially great when trying not to change the baby's nappy during the night to have as little stimulation at night as possible.

Easy to use, easy to wash and dry quickly

They are really good!

Simple to use and very absorbant. But sizes are variable. Ellie at 8 months has almost grown out of some of the size 2s while some are still roomy. I'm stretching out the life of my bamboozles by using nappy nippers. The tumble dryer is essential. I'm now researching an alternative bigger, quicker-drying nappy to get Ellie through to nappy training.

better than desposabuls
