Does anybody use either of these? Just wondering what you think of them?

I have one of each.
Bamboozle is great, day or night. Very absorbent.
Fluffle, well its ok but the mocrfibre really catches on your skin and gives me the creeps (IYKWIM) Absorbent but not overly so. For microfibre nappies I prefer wee notions.

I really like both. The fleece on skin feeling doesn't bother me, but I've heard of several people (not just Yorkiegirl!) really not liking the Fluffle just because of that.

Don't think either are as mega absorbant as they're advertised to be - about the same as a standard Totsbots IME, but are nonetheless fantastic nappies. Bamboozles are lovely and slim and always dry soft - even if not tumbled. Fluffles are a wee bit bulkier and dry almost immediately without needing tumbled.

I tried a bamboozle and liked it so much - softer and smaller than tots original - I have just ordered 18 size 2's from the nappy lady.

Interested in this thread?

I'm using bamboozles for daytime and love them. Very slim (for tots) and soooo soft. Longest left has been about 6 hours, and we still had a teeny dry patch. They seem to be about as absorbant as the rainbow ones (never used non-coloured for daytime). The size range is bigger too than normal tots.

I use the fluffle for night. Easily paddable because it has the attached lining as a pocket. I do find it a lot bulkier though. It is very light after a night's wee too.

I use Bamboozles for daytime, and I adore them - slim fitting, very absorbent, and so beautifully soft. Highly recommended!

Love my bamboozles - great for nightime as well. I have mainly the nipper version, but also 2 aplix, and for some reason the aplix have stayed softer and are more absorbent. Not sure if this is normal, or just the ones that I have got!

Love bamboozles, not tried the fluffles.

I love my fluffles! I loved my TB pastels before, apart from two things - they took ages to dry inside, and they felt quite rough (I don't have a tumble drier). Then I bought fluffles and I was completely happy! So soft on ds' skin, and at a push you could use them straight from the washing machine!

They do feel weird if your hands are dry though! And we've had some leakage problems recently - although I think that it's probably a combination of superwees (ds is at that age) and eczema cream affecting the absorbency of the pocket bit (occasionally, if he did a wee during a change, it would just pool on the surface of the nappy - v weird!)
