Thirsties Stay-Dry Duo Insert, White, Size One (6-18 lbs) reviews from buyers.

Works great and so easy
These inserts work perfectly!

The Good:
1. The size is perfect.. long and wide enough
2. VERY absorbing yet still thin! Genius design
3. There are two inserts connected by a white tab on each end. This is great feature because I pull them apart to speed up drying.
4. The tab feature is great for us because when we are at home we use three at bedtime. So we use one set connected and divide another set and use off of that set. You can't even tell the difference in diaper size between two and three!
5. I like the white color. Some things do not need to be all colored and full of dyes. This is one of those items.
6. They are well made - I wash my daily and have no wear or tear from it.

The Eh:
1. This can be taken as good or bad. I personally take it as good, but they take a long while to dry. I see this as proof positive that they hold fluids well and work perfectly for their purpose. Others may see this a bad due to the...

Good but not worth the price

I was originally very happy with these inserts because I wanted something thin. I used them with the Thirsties covers. They worked well for my 18 month old at first, but as he got older they just weren't sufficiently absorbent. IMO... the bulker the cloth diaper, the more absorbent it will be. There is no magic fabric. Over time the microfiber layer hasn't held up well. It has gotten rough and stained. The hemp layer still looks great, though. I now use prefolds instead. They are bulky, yes, but much more absorbent. Prefolds are also cheaper, they wash better, and they dry faster. I will save these to use with the next baby, however because it is nice to have a slimmer option on occasion.

Great for outings

We've been using these for six months, and love them. I use prefolds at home, but this is our go-to diaper when we are out of the house. It takes up less space in the diaper bag than a prefold, and makes for quick and easy changes in a public restroom. I've also tried FLIP inserts, but I like these much better because they combine hemp and microfiber. Microfiber absorbs quickly, but hemp holds more and does not cause compression leaks as easily. I use these with all of our covers (Blueberry Coveralls, Thirsties sized, and Thirsties Duo Wraps), and they work well with all.

Thirsties Stay-Dry Duo Insert, White, Size One (6-18 lbs) is one of the best cloth diapers from Thirsties.
