which wraps work best with terry nappies?

I have always used traditional flat terry nappies as they stain less & dry fast without a tumble dryer but have found it difficult to find a reliable cover that fits well.
Often they end up saggy & the whole nappy ends up round the knees.
I found one I really liked but recently when I came to reorder the website had disappeared.
These covers are usually about £7 each so mistakes are very expensive.
Does anyone have any recommendations?

Another vote for MotherEase with terries, but I personally prefer popper fastening over velcro/Aplix. As long as you go for one of the popular wraps that is recommended for prefolds or terries doesn't have to be Motherease you should get something decent. The wraps recommended for fitted nappies may be too slim fitting, though. Have you seen the 2nd-hand Nappy forum on ukparents ? It's a good place to buy & try cheaply before you make a big investment.

I like the Motherease popper-fastening wraps too. The velcro ones were great until dd learnt to undo them. I got bored of the 'Mummy put the wrap on, baby pull the wrap off' game much quicker than she did!

have you tried the totsbots ones? the redwrap and normal white one both seem to work OK with me when I use terry nappies.
related question to you guys who know what you're doing? how do you fold them so you don't end up with loads around the leg - I tend to fold inwards as I fold the nappy up but it never seems to look as neat as some nappies I've seen - any ideas?
