1. Look nice. Appealed to DD. I would perhaps buy them again, but only if they were on offer.

1. We are also potty training, and have been using the pull ups at night. Easy for me to put them on DD, easy for DD to pull down as required, but not so easy for DD to pull up again herself.

1. Have used Huggies pull ups - I think the Huggies are more generous in the sizing, but otherwise I think there is little between them.

1. I would recommend them, but only for night time use if they were to be used as part of potty training - I personally don't think using any sort of nappy during the day is useful to the child when PT.

1. Very expensive - I would only buy them if they were on offer. If Huggies pull ups were on offer and worked out cheaper, or a shops own brand, I would buy them instead.

I had size 5 for my 2 years and 9 month old girl.
They have made potty training so much easier and faster as she knows she can just pull the pants down when she wants to use her potty. She used her potty more than ever before when using these nappies. Shes able to run around freely and comfortably with no leakage too.
I would highly recommend to any potty training mums. They are much better than other pull ups I have used as easier to get on and for her to take off when she wants the potty and are much softer. They are more expensive than the usual brand I use but I'm going to look for them in the sale because I think I will save money in the long run as she will be out of nappies quicker.

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

Well made and absorbent. Yes would use them again, as my daughter had no nappy rash or leaks.

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

Yes, easy to pull up on a moving target.

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

No, not pull ups.

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?

Yes, absorbent and easy to pull up.

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

Not compared to other nappies, but you may have to change them less which could be a factor too.

We found these nappies fantastic, as we no longer had to pin our 15 month old daughter down to change her.! She was quite happy to step in and out of them. I found these very absorbent too with no leakage. If it wasn't for the vast difference in price between these and Pampers baby dry we would use these all the time.Will definately buy again, as it is a lot easy changing her standing up whilst out and about.

Q1. Very well made, soft and absorbent. I'm not a fan of Dora or Diego though. Much easier to use than normal nappies, especially on a wriggly baby. We did have a couple of leaks though.

Q2. Easy to pull up and definitely sped up the nappy changing process.

Q3. Yes, used pull ups before. These were far better. More absorbent and I like the sticky tab at the back that keeps the used nappy closed.

Q4. Yes. Easy to use and absorbent .

Q5. Not in comparison to other brands. If they were even £1 cheaper I'd be more likely to buy them. Over £6 for 22 nappies doesn't represent value for money

Brilliant. Beats having to wrestle to get the nappy on and DD can pull them down/up on her own which she finds quite impressive. No leakage as yet!

My son is 16 months old and the size of Easy Up Pants he wore was 4.

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

Ans: yes I loved it he usually leaks at night but yesterday it was all dry and looked like nappy had still some more room :)

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

Ans:Yes very easy to pull up and use it..He was trying to pull it up and also removed it all by himself today morning :)

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

Ans: No this is first time I used pant type nappies.

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?

Ans: Yes as they are very convenient and they do not leak :)

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

Ans: I guess 1-2 pounds above the regular nappy price is the right pricing..pl dnt make it too expensive.

Over all I am impressed!

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

I have had a few days to try these nappies and I like them, in this heat they are a bit less bulky for my 14 month old son who had the size 4 nappies, I would use them again but possibly when my boy is 2 or 3 months older.

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

Yes I did, though I think I prefer the traditional nappy rather than the pull up ones, mainly because of my boys age and it was a bit of a mess about.

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your
children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

I used these type of nappies with my little girl and thought Pampers Easy ups were of a better quality and kept my little one dry for longer.

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up
Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes I would, from about 16 months i would recommend them.

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

Pampers Easy Up Pants:

Number of nappies in each pack
Size 4 	Size 5 	Size 6

Carry Pack (£6.49) 22 20 19
Economy Pack (£7.49) 28 26 24
Jumbo Pack (£12.99) 50 46 42
Mega Pack (£15.00) 75 69 64

I think they are a little expensive as you dont get as many in them as you do traditional nappies.

I tried size 5s with Dora on for my 3 year old. She is potty trained except for night time and having been brand loyal to pampers nappies these seemed like a natural choice. I have only tried one other oull up style nappy brand and much preferred these. I have not been disappointed as they have never leaked, despite a higher amount of toddler wee going into them for a prolonged nighttime period. They are easy to get on and have never accidentally ripped. I think for the confidence that they will do the job they are good value for money and I would definitely keep using and recommend to others. Thank you!

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

They fit well, I'm not a huge fan of cartoon branded characters on them though - seems pretty common on all nappies, if I had a choice I tend to prefer the no 'branded' ones. Expensive and no different to the Huggies we've also tried.

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

Yes, they are very easy to use and practical - liked the ability to pull apart - found another brand hard to take off.

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

I didn't notice much of a difference (though have only had Huggies to compare too - did notice Sainsburys own brand were half the price of these would be so would be interested to compare those in future)

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy UpPants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?

Price.

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

Expensive - this makes them more expensive than nappies and not sure it would tempt me to use them - I would probably avoid and just go 'bare'... risk the accidents at this price!!

DD is 2.4 just begining potty training..

Been using mine since they arrived a few days ago. so far, brilliant. Makes for easy standing up nappy changes. Daughter loves her new 'nappy pants'. The tag that you can stick the used rolled up nappy back together with is very handy too as have used brands before that didn't have this.

I liked the way these nappies looked, I found them thinner and less bulky than regular pampers they are a really great fit.

I will definitely be buying these again.

I found the nappies much easier to use than regular nappies as they are pull up I didn't even have to look fora baby change room just somewhere private to change my baby. They Much less fiddly than regular nappies.

These are the first pull ups I've tried, but I wouldn't try another brand as all other brands seem to leak with my dc or cause nappy rash.

I would and have already recommended these nappies to others especially the parents of babies that will just not sit still during a nappy change

I normally buy pampers simply dry and think these are great value for money. Though I will keep using the easy ups I don't think they are particularly good value when compared to nappies like simply dry but they are comparable in price to pull up nappies by other brands.

Just managed to get mine today - right on time because DS did his first poo on the potty this afternoon!

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

Look nice, not too bulky

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

Yes

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your
children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

No

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up
Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?

Yes, and have already done so

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

Quite a bit more expensive than his current ones, however they are proving brilliant for my 18 month old who is adept at pulling the tabs on his current nappies and making a mess on the floor; he can't get these off yet :)

Tested size 5+ on 11 month old DS.

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?
Really impressed overall, would use again. DS hates nappy changes so being able to quickly pull the nappy on rather than trying to pin him down with one hand and do up the nappy with the other was great.

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?
Very easy to use.

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?
Not used a similar nappy before.

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?
Yes, definitely. They are much easier to get on than conventional nappies.

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?
I'm surprised at the price actually, I thought they'd be a lot more expensive than Active Fit but are almost the same price.

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?
DD had the size 5 pull ups. I liked the cartoon characters on them and they seemed easy to pull up, even for her to do herself. However, I found that they leaked as the inside doesn't seem to fit her bum. She is only a small 16 month old so I don't think it was that her bum is too big!

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?
They were very easy to use and were great for my DD as she hates having her nappy changed. She had a bit of a dodgy tummy one day though and it wasn't fun pulling it down then!! Maybe a parent emergency tab around the back would be good so that it doesn't interfere with the design and aim?
Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your
children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?
No
Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up
Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?
I would, because I like the design and how easy they were to use but I did find that they leaked 4 or 5 times and seemed to look like they were full even when they weren't. As a result we got through the entire pack in 2 days. I really like the pampers brand though and how great it was not to wrestle dd on the floor for a change so I may try other brands too.
Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why? I do think they are very good value for money as they seem to cost about the same or less than other brands on the market and certainly less than regular nappies in the same size.

Pampers Easy Up Pants:

Number of nappies in each pack
Size 4 Size 5 Size 6
Carry Pack (£6.49) 22 20 19
Economy Pack (£7.49) 28 26 24
Jumbo Pack (£12.99) 50 46 42
Mega Pack (£15.00) 75 69 64

Forgot to say that DD was in size 5 and is 16 months old :-D

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants?
Good quality and easy to use.

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

As you can pull them up while DS is standing they are easier to put on than a regular one.

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your children?

Swim nappies are similar

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up Pants to other parents?

Yes I would for use during the day, for nighttime I still prefer Pampers Baby Dry.

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

They are more expensive than standard pampers, which are expensive but good quality. I would say you get what you pay for, which isnt necessarily the same as good value for money! I usually buy nappies in bulk when they are on offer.

Q1 What was your overall impression of Pampers Easy Up Pants? Would
you use them again? If so, why? If not, why not?

My overall impression was positive, I am a pampers fan anyway and think the easy up pants may be the way forward for dd but only if competitively priced

Q2 Did you find Pampers Easy Up Pants convenient and easy to use or not?

I found them easy to use for a baby who is on the move and wanting to stand

Q3 Have you ever used similarly designed nappies before with any of your
children? If so, how did Pampers Easy Up Pants compare?

This was my first time trying easy up pants

Q4 If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Pampers Easy Up
Pants to other parents? If so, why? If not, why not?

I would recommend as a practical solution that worked well

Q5 We've included some info on how much Pampers Easy Up Pants cost
below - do you think that they're good value for money or not? Why?

They are a lot more than regular nappies, I aim to pay less than 10p per nappy where possible and these in DDs size work out at 20p, increasing as she grows so the cost may outweigh convenience in the long run

Whoops sorry I tried size 4 with dd

Also forgot to add DS is 3 and on size 6.

Have been using our dora size 4 easy Ups for last few days on my 2 1/2 yr old dd and I must say I am surprised how good they are, easy to put on, fit well not bulky and had no leaks at all even over night. Id be unlikely to use these full time until potty training as I think they are expensive compared to normal nappies for which I pay £10 for around 80 nappies supermarket own. Dd loved the dora design and made nappy changes easier as she actually wanted to put them on. Do feel the tape closure could be better designed as it isn't that effective but not enough of an issue to stop me buying them. I haven't used this type of nappy before but I definitely would again and I would recommend them.

i've been using pampers pull ups size 4 for a few days now on my 9 months old little girl and I'm pleasantly surprised.They are easy to use,especialy at night and after swimming.I already recommended them to all of my mumies friends and definitely buy them from now on!
