GroVia All-In-One Cloth Diaper - Pudge Reviews

GroVia All-In-One Cloth Diaper - Pudge reviews from buyers.

Doesn't work as well as I thought

When I first bought these cloth diapers I was very excited to use them. Once I did I was disappointed.
Pros- not as bulky as some diapers, and they are really cute, I have not had leak when he is awake
Cons- When the inserts get wet the shell gets wet as well and the odor is strong. I don't feel the insert was designed well. Its a great concept but not very functional. I put my son down for a nap and he woke up soaked. The sheets were soaked as well. He is 9 mos old and the first and only time this happened is when I put this cloth diaper on him. These are the only diapers I have besides the prefold diapers so now I make sure to put on a prefold before a nap.

I just recently ordered bumgenius and thirsties. I have been using disposables for overnights since my son is a heavy wetter. I am hoping with the new diapers I can eliminate the use of disposables. I know for sure the grobaby diapers won't work for that purpose.

The only way to cloth diaper!
I'm not a big reviewer, but I love GroVia so much, I will try!

Pros:

Highly absorbent soaker pads. Please note that they must be washed approximately 10 times in hot water to reach maximum absorbency. After that, they are a jewel. (Some customers complain of them not working, but this is simply because they have not been prepped!)

Very attractive shells (for those moms out there who want their kids to be stylish).

Ease of use. Remove the wet soaker pad from the shell, put a new one in.

Optional organic cotton inserts provide additional absorbency for those "heavy wetters" or for overnights.

Unbelievable customer support. The owner really cares about her product (and her customers).

The "one size fits all" feature is wonderful. Grobaby (the previous version) had a lower rise. This has been corrected with the Grovia line, which is wonderful for larger babies (like my own, who is 16 lbs. and not yet 3...

Good but smelly...
Pro's:
-Once the liners for this cloth diaper have been primed, they are quite absorbant. I have not had any leaks.
-The construction of the diaper is very good. These have my favorite snaps and I love that the liner snaps into place.
-Velcro is great for quick changes, my husband apreciates not having to line up the snaps.
-They are very trim between the legs and the liners have a wide backside to them which is great for girls who pee a lot...My daughter.
-they work GREAT with the Gro-baby disposable liners.

Cons:
-The liners are on the rough side, and once they are wet they feel VERY wet. For some reason, (and this is since I've had them and not the result of a terribly stinky potty) they STINK! They smell fine when they are clean but the second my kids pee in them I become very aware of the smell. I have several other types of liners and do not have this problem. These create the most pungent amonia smell I have ever experienced in...
