bumGenius 4.0 - Review

Here is a pic of baby M in the very first cloth diaper that she ever wore. I am in love with this pic. The print is the Eiffel Tower print from the bumGenius 4.0 Artist Series by Chelsea Perry. The bumGenius 4.0 is a microfiber pocket diaper (also available in organic fabric for a slightly higher cost). All of our bumGenius 4.0s are in snaps, but they are available in alpix as well. They come in a wide variety of colors and in the Artist Series prints. This diaper is one size, so it adjusts with your baby as they grow! So, you only need to buy 1 size and it will fit your baby from newborn to potty training!

I will admit, the very first time that she wore this diaper, we had a leak! I was bummed since I bought 12 of these diapers on a sale and was crossing my fingers that they would be great. Well, turns out that the leak was because I was new to cloth and didn't know how tight to put the diaper on. Since then, we have had no leaks with this diaper, and it is a good thing since we have 12 of them! We have been using this diaper for months now and it takes up over half of our stash, and that is a good thing since we love this diaper.

Cons:

• This diaper is a little bit bulky for my taste
• I do currently have one of these in the wash right now with a pretty bad stain on it from a fun "would have been a blowout if we didn't use cloth" that won't seem to lift

Pros:

• The colors and prints are gorgeous
• It comes in snaps which I love, it is a perfect fit for my average sized baby bum
• It is one size and will fit until potty training
• It rarely leaves red marks on her chubby little legs, there is no gap at the top between the diaper and her tummy
• It is a very affordable diaper! Less than $18 for a brand name, reputable, pocket diaper. YES PLEASE! 
• This diaper comes with a free newborn insert that can be used as a doubler as well, which makes it a great night diaper. These diapers also come with a warranty!!!
