just a quick question (prob been done before, sorry!)

anyone out there prefer one or other of these wraps?
am about to buy a new one, have an airflow which i really like, works well...so just wondering how different is a rikki? i use variety of naps, shapes, & prefold (tho not airflow with these obv.).
thoughts appreciated

I loved the airflow - I seemed to get a better fit with it than I did any of the rikki shaped ones I had tried... I never tried a proper rikki though...

Hi,
I found the rikki wrap pretty similar to airflow, not much to choose between them.

Just to go off on a tangent - but how impressed am I by the bamboozles! Dd on to day 8 of explosive diarrhoea (nice) and my bamboozles have been leak proof in the face of some of the vilest most liquid poos ever. Dd getting a bit fed up of the whole thing though, poor mite.

airflow - especially for older babies - velcro is too easy to undo!

& hiya nik! poor little dd, what's going on with her?? but for your naps, bet pampers would have no chance. friends dd also has diarrhoea, she's in sposies, result = lots of poo on vest, poor thing! cloth rocks...

The airflows are more durable too - the velcro on the rikki's eventually discolours and gets bits of fluff stuck in it.

Airflow here too!!!

I find that the velcro on the rikki can scratch as well, if you don't do it up just right.

Much preferred Airflow when I did real nappies.

Definitely Riki Wrap, wins hands down for me....

Londoner · 20/11/2005 16:27

Ha ha ha lol.....I mean the one with poppers.....is that the Airflow? What am I like eh!

Gem13 · 20/11/2005 16:35

like both and prefer the rikki with some nappies as it has a higher rise. I do prefer the airflow though.
