Real Nappies USA Sponsorship Spotlight and Review ***Extra Entries***

Real Nappies, the leading reusable cloth diapering system in New Zealand, has come to the US!
The pure simplicity of the Real Nappies system and the price point (super affordable) is what makes it accessible to all. Real Nappies has made cloth diapering your child even easier by offering age appropriate diapering packages. The Birth to Potty Pack contains everything you need to cloth diaper your baby from the time that your baby is born until he/she is ready to potty learn! To be able to diaper your baby for only $499.99 is amazing! Didn't start cloth diapering until your baby was older? No problem! Real Nappies has a Crawlers to Potty Pack.

The Real Nappies system consists of a prefold, a three layer PUL cover and an optional bioliner diaper liner to make cleaning up messes easier. The prefold is made from natural cotton and is free of chlorine bleach, plastics and chemicals. Cotton is one of the best cloth diapering fabrics there is. It absorbs quickly and is incredibly easy to care for. The cover is made of three layers of PUL (polyurethane laminate) for durability. There is no need to change the cover at every diaper change; wipe out and reuse. Change the cover only when soiled. The bioliner makes cleaning up messes easy. Just lift out and flush. The Bioliner diaper liner lets moisture pass through but retains the solids.

Real Nappies also has Swim Diapers and diaper covers in great colors.

There is also a guide to using the Real Nappies Diapering System. A buyers guide helps you know what products are best for you and your baby.

The Review

Real Nappies USA let me review a Sample Intro Pack in newborn size. The Sample Intro Pack contains a Snug Wrap cover, an Indian cotton prefold and a bioliner diaper liner. There is also a great pamphlet with some information on it to help you navigate the cloth diapering system.

Ease of Use: The great thing about any prefold/cover system is that you have the option of laying the prefold in the cover or folding the prefold over baby and securing with a snappi. This was actually the first time that I had used prefolds and covers. I really enjoyed it. The Snug Wrap cover is as easy to put on as a disposable. The velcro tabs are super strong and doesn't rub on baby's delicate skin.

Fit: Prefolds are a great option for any size baby because you can fold it to fit YOUR baby. I primarily used the prefold with a snappi and was surprised by how well it held in newborn poo. The very few times that poo did escape the prefold it was contained by the cover. I also used this cover over a fitted with great success. I was able to use this cover when my daughter was a few days old and it still fits her; albeit she needs to move up a size. (She's 12 lbs at 5.5 weeks).

Materials: The prefold is made of 100 % natural Indian Cotton. The cover is made of three layers of durable PUL.

Cost: $15- $499.99. There is a price range on these as they are sold in packages. The Sample Intro Pack is $15 and the Birth to Potty Pack is $499.99.

Care: The Real Nappies system is incredible easy to care for. The prefold did need to be prepped by washing. It washes up nicely and looks like its brand new. The Snug Wrap cover has laundry tabs that WORK! The velcro is really strong and hasn't gotten any lint collection.

Overall Opinion: I really liked this system. It's easy to use, has a simplistic design and is really affordable. The covers really were wipe and reuse and were of great quality! I also liked that the covers were white. I have some fitteds with really cute prints and the prints showed through the PUL. I never experienced any leaks with this system either. Wallet friendly with great quality makes the Real Nappies System a must have in any diaper stash!
