We have three Pop In nappies and have found them good enough to be ordering another two. These nappies fit first on our skinny girl, whereas other nappies gaped a bit at the leg. The velcro waist definitely makes for a better fit on smaller babies, but it would be nice to see a popper option, as I hear these are harder for babies to undo themselves once they are a bit older and have exploring fingers! The popper system on this nappy is very easy to use and I do prefer this to having to stuff nappies. We've used a Pop In with the booster attached as a night nappy for our 7 week old and it's been fine, although I do suspect the night booster will be needed soon as she starts to 'produce' more! Overall a great experience so far, and I'm glad to see the new prints launched as the plain colours did make for a slightly 'dated' feel...

I was lucky enough to win a box of these nappies and instantly fell in love with them. The Bamboo was so soft and the leg gusset prevented any leaks. They were a great fit on my first son until he reached about 2 years old and then they became hard to do up and if he was too boisterous the velcro would undo. With regret, I washed them and stored them in the cupboard for my second son. He started using them as a newborn and I never had any leaks. I used them as a night nappy because the absorbancy is so good with the Bamboo inserts. When he was older and wetting more heavily at night I used the Dri Nights booster with them and never had any leaks. Again, they were a great fit and no poo-namis escaped. Unfortunately, my second son must have super strong urine because the inserts started to disentergrate. Even when rinsed and dry pailed or washed straight away. It was very upsetting as these used to be my favourite nappies. I never had a problem like that with my first son so it was just unfortunate that my second has such strong pee. All in all, a fab nappy but if you know your child has strong urine the natural fibres may not be able to stand up to it...

The pop in bamboo nappies are great as they are simple to put together and very easy to use. A favourite with dad as they are as easy to use as a disposable. I did find however that their absorbency did not compare to other all in one and snap in one nappies and that two hours was a maximum for us without boosting them furthur. The colours are lovely pastels which is nice as we have a lot of brights and these don't show through white clothes as much. I find that having a great variety in colours is key. They wash well and dry relatively quickly, however bamboo is known as being slower to dry than other materials as it is very absorbent..

We have a couple of these and although i was very excited about them when I ordered them, they simply don't seem to fit my LO properly. :( They have brilliant features, although they can be quite slow to dry. That said, they are easy to use and assemble. The colours are really gentle and the nappies feel lovely and soft, but sadly they don't hold the leaks for my son. I use them mainly as a stop-gap nappy, when I know he will need to be changed fairly soon (just before bath-time or when we are on our way to the pool, for example) but cannot rely on them for any length of time. I think it's a shape issue, really, as his little cousin wore them when she stayed and they remained leak-free for about 4 hours on her. Hope this is helpful!..

I have four of these nappies. I bought them when i was looking for a nappy that wouldnt leak overnight with a cosleeping breastfeeding heavywetter. initially i found these to be better than a boosted totsbots easyfit. then i had to add a pop-in bamboo booster. this made the nappy very bulky and even though my girl is 13 months and a tiddler i had the nappy in its fully extended popper position. The "pocket flap" at the front and back of the inside of the nappy can be a bit fiddly to fold flat against baby's skin....and once your baby is a wriggler this can make it almost impossible to put the nappy on properly!! what i do like about this nappy is the double leg gusset, which helps to prevent those leaks!! i have to admit for night times i have now moved onto bamboozles with a wrap as it simply isnt as bulky as this nappy...
