Should I get Pop In Original, Dream Dri or something else?

I bought 10 Pop In Originals when DS was born and have been using them off and on for the past 7 months. Want to do a more concerted effort on re-usables now, and planning buy another batch of nappies to enable us to use them full-time. Pop In Originals have been good - very absorbent and no accidents so far. But they take ages to dry (record so far was 3 days!) and despite DS being v skinny the velcro fasteners are almost already at full stretch so I'm not sure if the nappies will really last until he's potty training. I know the Dream Dri nappies should dry a lot quicker, but a bit worried that the absorbency won't be as good. Can anyone recommend which ones we should go for next? Ideally want a nappy that will fit until potty training, is absorbent and dries quickly. Not asking for much, am I?

I am loving the new Bumgenius flip, generous size that also go tiny, the microfibre ones dry in a flash and you can just change the insert if only wet. They are buy one get one free at Fill you pants. You can get the organic ones in the offer now too, will take longer to dry but good when you need the extra absorbency.

Thanks mumface. Do you reckon the Flip nappies are better than the regular Bumgenius ones (if you've tried those)?

I'd say they are as good as BG pockets except you only get 1 insert with the flips, so you would need to buy extra inserts for a toddler. An Easy peasy hemp would fit in nicely under the microfibre one.
Not as quick to pop on though as the regular ones as you have to sometimes tweak the insert to make sure it's behing flaps, but once on I haven't found it moves around. Shame they don't do more colours aswell.
