Best Nappy?

flashnazia

Not sure if this has been posted before but did a search and didn't really find much.

I've been using Lidl nappies and was happy ( they were called Cien) but now they stock a brand named Toujours. They are a bit different and don't have the wetness indicator like the Cien ones (even though the pack says otherwise).

So, I'm looking for a better nappy. Tesco have two different types, Superfit (purple pack) and a cheaper one called Baby dry essentials.

Can someone recommend a nappy? What about Asda and Aldi?

Thanks

Hi there, have never personally rated the Asda ones, especially toddler size, can find it full to bursting only 90 mins after a change.
Never tried Aldi, Tesco baby dry essentials didn't seem very absorbant - I always buy the Tescop purple ones and find them great. Very good even overnight and more fabric feeling than a lot of the plasticy feel ones that seem to make skin sweat more....HTH

Only one recommendation - real, cloth nappies - no waste to fill landfill sites and they're much easier to look after than you may think. Once bought (and I agree, they're expensive, but not as much as a couple of years of disposables) they can be sold on for about 50-75% of the new price.

I echo cloth nappies ....

£200 spent and not a penny more ...

Disposables cost say £20 a month x 24 months (if you are lucky) ... you do the math !

I like the Lidls Toujour ones. Also like Sainsburys ones. I wasnt too keen on Tesco and Huggies Natural Fit and Pampers Active Fit are my favs. Asdas ones are awful!!!

I have washables too so do a mix, they dont seem to need changing any more often than a disposable and washing them is a doddle!!

I would recommend the Tesco Baby Dry nappies - I've used them for the last 12 months and think they are the best on the market in term of fit and absorbancy for my daughter, but it does depend on your baby. The only ones that ever fit my son properly were Huggies.

I tried cloth nappies and really wanted to use them, but just couldn't get along with them.

Completely agree that the Asda ones are awful!

Tesco Superfit (purple packs) have been great with both my DDs, much better than Huggies or Pampers. Never tried Lidl's though.

i love tesco superfit.
i hated asdas, far too bulky and not very absorbant.
love lidls range, very close to pampers, dont like their pull ups though
love boots own range its great also

My DD backside is definitely a pampers active fit one.

Which is typical :rolleyes: as they aren't cheap. I have tried others and the only ones that she could wear without accident were the Lidl (Cien) ones.

But bearing in mind she is nearly 2 and a half and still in a size 3 nappy (which is still big) its difficult to find nappies to fit a child so active with such a midgety bum.

I think you need to try nappies until you find the one that fits your child.

I just wish I could be one of those cloth nappy Mummies, but I can't.

I use pampers and sainsburys ones. Tried the toujours from Lidl and didn't like them just because they are so much stiffer. But he was still dry. Huge disaster with a trial pack from Huggies though. All three nappies one after the other leaked everything all over the place. It took me right back to the early leaky days, gross.
I find the botty driest to the touch after the removal of a nappy from Pampers active. Must be that funny mesh.

I used a combination of Kooshies (washable cloth nappy) and ASDA until my boy started to crawl. Then I found that both leaked, so switched to Pampers baby dry. Never had a problem with these leaking, and they hold an enormous amount of fluid - the only one I've found that can last a whole night.
