Is anyone using Wonderoos v3?

We are thinking about using these but DS pees like a racehorse and I was wondering if I would need an extra booster and if so what would fit and which material people would recommend? Very new to fabric nappies so any advice welcome! Thanks

We have had excellent reports for Wonderoos as night nappies, the bamboo insert gives 6 layers of absorbency plus you have the microfibre one, but there is room to add more in the pocket if you want to try it. They are very thirsty nappies!

I found the Wonderoos lasted well for us, particularly the pul version. I have loaned one to a friend who has a heavy wetting 6mo and she has also found them good. They lasted 5-6hrs on occasion (silly me thought OH had changed a nappy!) and i have used them with an extra trifold hemp overnight, although my son didn't have an extra feed that night, they were certainly drier than my usual night choice of heavily boosted totsbots bamboozles. Easy peasy hemp boosters fit, Little lamb bamboo should do as they are narrower than the existing insert in the new wonderoos, I've also used WAHM hemp in ours. The only downside I find is we prefer poppers and the inserts are a bit of a pain to take apart wet for washing (same issue with lots of pocket style) but if the nappy is only wet I suppose theres no reason you couldn't wash with the inserts in and remove after washing.

I tried the minky version in a night nappy kit from my local nappy library, they were fab. DD is an average wetter, and even without boosting they lasted the whole night. We currently use Close Pop-Ins at night (un-boosted) but I will definitely get some Wonderoos in the future if these don't cut it. I challenge you to not sit there stroking the minky outer, it's soooo soft!

I have 2 not sure which version but they are minky? Been in use the last 3 years (2 babies in quick succession!) and still work well, the bamboo booster is great, I bought two to try but went in favour of little lambs pockets after testing as I found the double gussetted shape was more reliable. The wanderoos were a close second though :-)

They have arrived and are in the wash for prepping so we shall see! Am debating buying some zorb 2 boosters from etsy as I have read great things about the material. Will report back once they are dry and we have used them for an overnight!

First night we had a bit of a fail with leaking but then the lady at the nappy shop in Hebden Bridge showed us that if we doubled the microfiber up at the front of him and then put that inside the bamboo fold it would work better. No more leaks :) just starting to increase stock to go full time :)

The v3 was only launched last autumn but the v2 had the same inserts.
