Tesco - New nappies are better....

My children are out of nappies but a close friend is raving about the new Tesco nappies......

New design on the pack, better fit and broader tapes. She's over the moon....

I thought this was worth sharing with you all in here as I browse the site regularly and thought it time to feed something back.

thanks Izamum.
I feel one of my late night trips to the local 24hr Tesco coming on...

I agree!!! They are perfect

MotherofOne · 11/07/2002 21:24

AND cheaper than other own label I believe! (At least EXtra Large (Size 6) are £4.35 for 24 vs £4.99 for Safeway/Boots equivalent...

I switched to Tesco's when my son was 2 months old as I found pampers and huggy's were smelly and the gel came out in little balls when mixed with his pee. Tesco's are better and cheaper. Only drag is you can only buy them at Tesco's. I haven't noticed that much difference with the new ones though the tapes are broader and more importantly longer.

I've always used Tescos (purple pack) and agree that they are easily as good as 'the leading brands'!

IzaMum · 16/07/2002 17:41

Well I'm glad some agreee !!! Shame they are ony in Tesco eh ! Funny that ! Being own label I guess that's where you will find them...

What about the internet shopping service or are you not a Tesco fan Sofia ?

I tried internet shopping once, but it just took forever, so i got fed up. I don't mind going to tesco's, but sometimes i like to go to sainsburys (they are the same distance from my house)...it depends on what I need, so sometimes i wish they had tesco's nappies at sainsbury's...dumb i know. Also i am so adicted that when i travel i bring a full supply with me...which actually means that i have in essence packed the space to bring my purchases home with me..

Sorry but i'm not a fan of tesco nappies.I bought them last week for the first time and wasnt impressed Ds seemed to be soaked every morning so have gone back to pampers.

my little girl is 6 months old and the new Tesco nappies fit her really well - the Huggies and Pampers ones were either to tight or to big . I highly recommend them

Judd · 18/07/2002 12:45

We use Nature Boy & Girl for DD and are really satisfied with them. They cost as much as Pampers and Huggies and we have only seen them in Sainsburys (Tesco used to stock 'em but seems to have stopped). We only chose them to (partly)appease my guilty conscience about using disposables over towelling ones as they are made from recycled material and.........other stuff that I can't remember at the moment ! They are manufactured in Sweden by a lady who wanted good reliable nappies for her baby but also wanted to be green. There is a website, but I can't disrupt The Nap to go and get the info off the nappy wrapper ! Will post it later, incase anyone is interested.

I read something about the Nature nappies last weekend. The 'green' folk reckon they are no better than ordinary disps, because once they are buried in landfill they don't decompose anyway, without light and air. No idea if that's really the case, though.
