Which insert should I use?

When it comes to choosing the right insert for your cloth nappy needs, there are a few things to consider:

  • Absorbency speed

  • Absorbency amount

  • Drying time

  • Bulk/weight

  • Price

  • Cleanliness/stain resistance

  • Shape

  • Durability

  • Material

Pocket nappies can use just about any shape of insert.

AI2s usually require the snaps to line up. You can use other inserts in an AI2 cover without snapping them in.

BundleBums recommends that you try combinations of inserts/boosters until you find the best fit for your needs.
