{Booger Butts } Review & GIVEAWAY! *CLOSED*

Booger Butts. What a cute name, no? This is a cloth diapering company that manufactures AIO {All In One} fitted cloth diapers along with other diapering accessories such as wet bags and inserts {I should also mention that they do carry some mama products {like their cloth menstruating pads}, which I'll be reviewing at a later date, so stay tuned for that!}. Their fitted AIO comes in 4 sizes, and most have a "Zorb" upgraded insert, as well {more on that later!}.

My son tested these out, and they are not only a practical, fairly slim fit, but so easy to get on and adjust for a great fit with their touch tape {i.e., velcro} tabs. Being an AIO, they have the absorbant layer {which in the case of the diaper we tested, was a "Zorb" layer} sewn right into the diaper for extra convenience {Put it this way, AIOs are about as close to disposable diapers as you can get, ease-wise}. This single Zorb layer was all my son needed to even last through the night without leaking at all, which was quite impressive!


What I really loved was how quickly this diaper dried in the dryer. Most AIOs I've tried need some extra time in the dryer (versus the pocket diapers, for example) because of their extra layer in the middle that you can't remove, but these actually dried in the same amount of time as the pockets! The laundry tabs are also quite handy, in that they prevent the velcro from sticking to other items while being dried in the dryer. And these particular ones worked great and effectively, unlike some others out there that seem to come undone from the tabs and end up sticking to everything anyway!

So back to the insert sewn into the diaper, because I just know you're wondering what this "Zorb" material is anyway, am I right? Well, Anne from Booger Butts enlightened me on this, and here is what I found out:

"Zorb contains only tangled fibers from bamboo/cotton/viscose and poly micro fiber, the same fibers found in virtually every AIO diaper on the market – nothing else. Zorb has non-allergenic fibers that are durable and easy to sanitize."

Comparison of other fabrics thickness include: one layer of Zorb is equivalent to:
3 layers of flannel, 2.25 layers of French terry, 1.3 layers of cotton fleece, or 1 layer of sherpa.
To get the same absorbency with two layers of Zorb you would need:
8 layers of flannel, 6 layers of French terry, 5 layers of cotton fleece, or 4 layers of sherpa.

That was all I needed to know how that one single sewn-in layer lasted the whole night through without any leakage!

All in all, this diaper is a great value {only $8.25 each ~ trust me, this is a deal!} for quite an impressive product, which I'd highly recommend trying! And being that they're AIOs, I promise even Daddy & the babysitter will love these!

I visited the site but the shop is closed temporarily and I wasn't able to view the diapers! I plan to check back, though. That price is amazing!
